Iterated Selector Pullback Accumulates Resonance by Least Common Multiple

Sequence claim receipt: seqclaim-d32fda8498f5adb031e3e027.

Sequence claim idempotency key: grothendieck-ledger-iterated-selector-pullback-resonance.

Tower coherence

For finite surjections

$$G\xrightarrow{\phi}H\xrightarrow{\psi}J$$

and a selector (c) on (J), let (N_\phi=\ker\phi), (N_\psi=\ker\psi), and (K_c) be its terminal kernel. Ledgers 1297 and 1299 give

$$\boxed{ R_G(K_{(\psi\phi)^*c}) =\operatorname{lcm}\bigl( R_G(N_\phi),R_H(N_\psi),R_J(K_c) \bigr).}$$

Equivalently, the composite spectrum is the intersection of the three operation systems. Associativity of least common multiple and intersection makes the answer independent of stepwise versus direct pullback.

Exact strict tower

For (C_{12}\to C_6\to C_2) and the identity selector on (C_2), the successive terminal-kernel orders are (1,3,6), their resonance labels are (1,3,6), and the spectrum sizes through index 24 are (24,16,8). Direct and stepwise selector pullback agree pointwise.

Scope and verification

This is strict contravariant coefficient coherence. It does not provide the covariant relative-chain transfer, orientation, boundary compatibility, or physical normalization required for a full paired Mackey object.
