1538 — The Formal Mass-Jet Connection Is Pure Gauge
Status
Exact trivialization and residue audit of Entry 1537's flat formal connection.
Trivializing gauge
For
define
Then
Thus the connection of Entry 1537 is logarithmically exact:
It is pure gauge on the complement of the two formal pole divisors.
Residues
The connection coefficients have simple poles at
At each pole,
Their scalar local monodromies are therefore
The exact checker verifies the gauge identity and both residues.
Meaning
Formal flatness here does not signal a nontrivial Gauss–Manin local system. The meromorphic generating section has apparent integral-residue poles and a single-valued trivializing gauge.
Consequently the infinity-jet coefficient family alone cannot generate a nontrivial physical phase, deck character, or monodromy invariant:
This closes the purely formal-connection lane for the bivalent corner. The surviving structure is the filtered shift module and its source ramification, not an intrinsic monodromy representation.
