2532 — Clark Bulk Is Faithful on Features, Not Yet on Boundary States

Grothendieck's native Clark shear places both sheets in one labelled source module before comparison. With

$$X=G+f, \qquad Y=a\partial_zG,$$

the positive bulks are

$$E_+=|X+iY|^2=T+S, \qquad E_-=|X-iY|^2=T-S.$$

Their exact sum has real Gram matrix

$$\operatorname{diag}(2,2,2a^2,2a^2),$$

with determinant $16a^4$. For real $a\ne0$, this closes the native common-frame, equal-coefficient, representation-completeness, and feature-space faithfulness gates. The identity is labelwise, so every finite labelled cutoff is a direct sum of faithful blocks.

The remaining distinction is categorical. This matrix is faithful on the feature packet $(G+f,a\partial_zG)$, but admissible boundary states reach it through a constructor

$$J_X:\mathcal A_X\to\{(G+f,a\partial_zG)\}.$$

Strict positivity on states additionally requires $\ker J_X=0$. Uniform completion requires a lower bound for this constructor that does not collapse with the cutoff. Neither property follows from the finite determinant.

At $a=0$, the determinant vanishes and the block rank drops from four to two, providing the exact degeneration witness.

Scope

This result independently verifies the finite positive Clark bulk. It does not close the non-bulk defect channels, exclude simultaneous vanishing of $G+f$ and $\partial_zG$ on every admissible state, establish a uniform completion bound, or prove RH.
