Physical16 Rank Deficit Is Not Intrinsic Codimension
Ledger 3107 correctly reports rank two for the aligned charged-loop response, but incorrectly calls the remaining fourteen ambient record directions physical tangent dimensions.
physical16 is a faithful sixteen-entry embedding consisting of six masses,
nine CKM moduli, and signed Jarlskog coordinate. CKM unitarity constrains the
last ten entries to four intrinsic mixing coordinates, so the nondegenerate
quark quotient has dimension ten.
The corrected statement is:
- physical response rank: two;
- ambient sixteen-entry rank deficit: fourteen;
- intrinsic quotient codimension: eight.
The selector disposition is unchanged. The packet, checker, generated result, and programme index now preserve this distinction explicitly.
