Gravity Seven Gaps Wick Hinge Data Complete Wick Hinge Data Continuation Complet

A machine-checked theorem certifies that the geometry of a single quantum simplex continues smoothly from Lorentzian to Euclidean signature, while leaving the full action-level continuation open.

The hinge-data continuation

In the Recognition Science framework's study of quantum gravity, a causal 4-simplex is the discrete building block of spacetime: a five-vertex tetrahedron-like object whose edges carry timelike or spacelike character. The theorem wick_hinge_data_continuation_complete certifies, for every one of the twenty triangular hinges of both causal simplex types, that the geometric data continue smoothly when the signature of spacetime is rotated from Lorentzian to Euclidean. This is the mathematical operation known as Wick rotation, and here it is applied to the dihedral cosines and squared areas of the hinges, the angles and face sizes that encode the simplex's shape.

The certification covers the full open arc of the rotation parameter and extends continuously to the Euclidean endpoint, where the cosine takes the exact value -1/4, the regular 4-simplex value. Two companion theorems give the closed forms for all twenty hinge areas-squared: 3/16 for all-spacelike classes and z/4 - 1/16 for classes with timelike edges. A third theorem memorializes two exact product-form crossings that land on the branch cut at specific interior parameters, values -40 and -48, which document a previously failed transcription and the repaired convention. All three theorems are kernel-checked with no axioms beyond the standard three, and the library's axiom audit confirms this.

What the declaration does not claim is equally precise. It is a hinge-data continuation, not an action-level continuation. The action, the Regge action obtained by summing deficit angles over simplices sharing an interior hinge, requires a genuine three-or-more-pent interior-hinge simplicial complex, which remains an open target. No FullTheoryLedger flag is changed by this result; the action-level continuation open bit was cleared elsewhere by a separate V2 terminal. The endpoint values are exact because each split cosine is proved continuous on the closed interval, but the Lorentzian endpoint carries a documented sign factor, and no unrestricted equality with the real Lorentzian formula is claimed.

In plain terms, the framework has rigorously established that the shape data of a single quantum simplex survive the rotation between signatures, a necessary step toward a full quantum gravity theory. The reader can now see the precise boundary of this achievement: the geometry of individual building blocks is certified, but the sum over many blocks that would define the full action remains the next open question.

What this page does not claim

The action-level continuation is not established by this result; it remains open and requires a three-or-more-pent interior-hinge simplicial complex. No unrestricted equality with the real Lorentzian formula is claimed at the endpoint, due to the documented sign factor. This result does not change any FullTheoryLedger flag; the action-level open bit was cleared by a separate V2 terminal.
