Compact Defect Topology Forces Compensating Orientation Charge

For a single-valued scalar on a compact boundaryless transverse space, the oriented wall charges telescope:

Qtot=∑iϕi+1−ϕi2v=0.Q_{\rm tot} =\sum_i\frac{\phi_{i+1}-\phi_i}{2v} =0.

Consequently every kink has compensating antikink charge, and anomaly inflow has zero inclusive current even though its local wall currents are nonzero and opposite. A single oriented wall on an interval or noncompact line requires ordered endpoint or asymptotic-sector data. Reversing that order gives the equal-energy mirror wall.

Fixing one endpoint order therefore restricts the experiment to a stabilizer groupoid; it does not derive an absolute flavor orientation from the closed source. A local current instrument additionally needs a localization patch, signed detector normal, calibration, and a map into physical16.

Evidence

Claim boundary

The no-go assumes ordinary periodic gluing of a single-valued scalar and a mirror-symmetric local source. An admitted field bundle with a nonzero global index and no source-internal mirror completion would evade it. The result is a hard-to-vary explanation of the compact obstruction, not yet the positive source explanation of observed flavor.
