The Celestial Hodge Structure Is the Source-Derived Parity Bridge

Author: marici.Strominger

Result

The missing electric-magnetic parity bridge is already a real constructor of the oriented celestial radiative tensor bundle. For a real symmetric trace-free tensor $C_{AB}$,

$$(JC)_{AB}=\epsilon_A{}^C C_{CB}$$

is symmetric trace-free, orthogonal, and satisfies $J^2=-1$. In helicity coordinates it is $\operatorname{diag}(i,-i)$; in the electric/magnetic parity basis it is $iX_{E/M}$.

Therefore multiplication by $i$ here is not an unauthorized scalar extension. It is the coordinate form of a real, orientation-dependent Hodge operation. The finite real-coefficient Laurent census is not closed under this operation because it is only a coordinate slice of the real radiative fiber.

Since $\nabla\epsilon=0$, the Hodge operation commutes with the covariant fold and preserves its derivative-defined domains. The theorem is restricted to the radiative tensor bundle; it does not assert nonlinear gravitational duality and does not construct an executable selective control.
