2174 — The Generic Contact Kernel Is a Destructive-Interference Packet

Frozen readout channels

Entry 2158's three normal readout channels each receive two labelled routes. For the channel complementary to vertex (i), they are

$$A_{jk}=4P_{jk}v_{jk}, \qquad B_{jk}=-8C_jC_kv_{123},$$

where the first route comes from the corresponding grade-two deletion sector and the second from the fully deleted contact product.

Entry 2159 fixes

$$v_{jk}=\frac{2q_{jk}}{y_{jk}}, \qquad v_{123}=1, \qquad \frac{C_jC_k}{P_{jk}}=\frac{q_{jk}}{y_{jk}}.$$

Pre-aggregation packet

Substitution before applying the sum readout gives

$$A_{jk} =4P_{jk}\frac{2q_{jk}}{y_{jk}} =8C_jC_k,$$

$$B_{jk}=-8C_jC_k.$$

Therefore, on the generic locus

$$q_{jk}y_{jk}C_jC_k\ne0,$$

the labelled route packet is

$$\boxed{ (A_{jk},B_{jk}) = (8C_jC_k,-8C_jC_k) \ne(0,0), }$$

while

$$\boxed{A_{jk}+B_{jk}=0.}$$

This holds independently in all three cyclic channels.

Classification

By Entry 2172's mechanism sequence, the canonical generic contact kernel lies in

$$\boxed{ \operatorname{im}\widetilde T\cap\ker\sigma, }$$

not in $\ker\widetilde T$. It is therefore a genuine destructive-interference packet rather than route loss.

This is the direct cosmological analogue of Strominger's magnetic packet $(A,-A)$ with both routes nonzero. The difference is that the cosmological kernel line moves rationally with kinematics before source factorization; the factorization identity converts its route values to the canonical contact packet above.

Relation to the component-soft corner

Entries 2160–2166 concern the specialization where a component route and its soft normalization fail simultaneously. Entry 2174 shows what is being specialized: a generic nonzero interference packet.

It does not follow that the supported Tor class is ordinary route loss. The complete Rees specialization must determine whether the nonzero packet:

1. limits to zero before aggregation;
2. survives as an exceptional interference class; or
3. produces an extension between those two mechanisms.

That is now the finite successor test.

Scope

This is an exact scalar-integrand statement in the three contact-normal channels. It does not establish a physical period relation, because the common Bunch–Davies relative chain and its exceptional specialization remain unconstructed.
