Welcome to QFD-Universe

A verifiable framework where one measured input (α ≈ 1/137) derives the rest.

Before diving in, a note on methodology: This repository treats physical laws as executable software. It contains 1,100+ formally verified Lean 4 theorems and zero-dependency Python validations. Every result can be traced from the geometric axiom to the numerical output step-by-step.

We understand this framework makes extraordinary claims. We ask only that you engage with the derivations rather than pattern-matching to familiar failure modes. Specifically:

Structure, not Numerology: Each value emerges from a named mechanical relationship (e.g., the "Golden Loop" links vacuum stiffness β to the electromagnetic input α). These are algebraic necessities of the geometry, not coincidental digit-matching.

The Zero-Tuning Policy: We do not add free parameters to force fits.

  • Example: We predict the Electron g−2 to within 0.001%.
  • Example: We derive the Proton Mass from vacuum geometry to within 0.4% (interpreted as the soliton binding energy).

We display these deviations transparently. Unlike standard models that add variables to "fix" the result, we allow the geometric prediction to stand on its own merits.

Your skepticism is healthy, but your tools should be rigorous.

If your instinct is to dismiss this as "impossible"—we understand. But the Lean proofs compile, the Python runs without dependencies, and the numbers match reality to high precision.

Start with make validate-quick and audit the logic yourself.

Trust your calculation, not your priors.


The Glass Box

Physics has become a collection of black boxes. Quantum mechanics says "shut up and calculate." General relativity breaks down at singularities. The Standard Model has 26 free parameters nobody can explain. These theories work in their domains but contradict each other at the boundaries.

QFD is a Glass Box. One theory. One algebra. One chain of derivations from a single measured constant (α ≈ 1/137) to everything else. Every step is visible, verifiable, and falsifiable. At every opportunity, we validate predictions against experimental data.

What Makes QFD Different

Black Box Physics Glass Box (QFD)
26+ free parameters 1 input (α only)
Complex numbers required Real geometry only
Separate theories per scale Same algebra everywhere
Singularities, infinities None allowed
"Shut up and calculate" See every derivation

The Fragile Promise

The Glass Box is deliberately fragile. Breaking any wall breaks the entire model. If one prediction fails by more than measurement error, the whole framework is wrong—not just a parameter to tweak.

This is a feature, not a bug. It means QFD is genuinely falsifiable.

Validation Philosophy

We test everything. Every derived quantity is compared against experiment:

  • Derive β from α → validate against nuclear data (c₁, c₂)
  • Derive g-2 from geometry → validate against Harvard/Fermilab measurements
  • Derive proton mass from m_e → validate against PDG value (0.49% error)
  • Derive CMB temperature → validate against Planck satellite (0.03% error)

If QFD derived a quantity but refused to compare it to measurement, that would be a red flag. Instead, this repository contains 17 independent validation scripts that compare QFD predictions to experimental data. Run them yourself: python analysis/scripts/run_all_validations.py

What's NOT in QFD

  • ✗ Imaginary numbers (complex i is replaced by geometric bivectors)
  • ✗ Extra dimensions beyond 6 (Cl(3,3) is complete)
  • ✗ Dark matter/energy as separate substances
  • ✗ Singularities or infinities anywhere
  • ✗ Free parameters to tune after the fact

Project Goals

QFD aims to derive ALL fundamental constants from geometry. Here are the testable claims:

Goal Testable Prediction Current Status
Derive vacuum stiffness β = 3.043233 from α via Golden Loop ✅ Proven (0% error)
Predict nuclear coefficients c₁ = 0.496, c₂ = 0.328 from α alone ✅ Verified (0.01%, 0.48%)
Predict electron g-2 0.00115963678 with zero free params ✅ Verified (0.0013% error)
Predict muon g-2 0.00116595205 with zero free params ✅ Verified (0.0027% error)
Predict CMB temperature 2.7248 K from recombination physics ✅ Verified (0.03% error)
Nuclear conservation law 210/210 decay modes explained ✅ Verified (100%)
Lepton mass ratios m_μ/m_e ≈ 207 from topology ⚠️ 0.93% error (improving)
Proton mass m_p = (4π²/9) × β × (m_e/α) ≈ 935 MeV ✅ Verified (0.37% error)

What would falsify QFD: Any prediction off by more than ~1% with no geometric explanation.


Axioms, Inputs, and Predictions

Clarification: "Zero free parameters" means no continuously tuned fit parameters. QFD has discrete structural axioms (physical postulates) and one measured input (α).

Structural Axioms (Discrete Choices)

Axiom Statement Physical Motivation
A1. Cl(3,3) arena Physics occurs in the Clifford algebra Cl(3,3) Minimal algebra with both spatial and temporal signature
A2. Golden Loop form 1/α = 2π² × (e^β/β) + 1 Topological constraint from soliton quantization
A3. Electron scale factor S_e = -1/ξ where ξ = φ² Golden ratio emerges from recursive self-similarity
A4. Hard-wall boundary Solitons have finite support Prevents infinite self-energy

Measured Inputs

Input Value Source Used For
α (fine structure) 1/137.035999206 CODATA 2018 Core derivation (β, c₁, c₂, g-2)
m_e (electron mass) 0.511 MeV PDG 2024 Mass scale unit
m_μ/m_e (mass ratio) 206.768... PDG 2024 Particle identification in g-2

Why m_e? Electron mass sets the fundamental mass scale (like choosing meters for length). All other masses are derived relative to it:

  • Proton mass: m_p = (4π²/9) × β × (m_e/α) ≈ 935 MeV (0.37% error) — see ProtonBridge_Geometry.lean
    • k_geom = (4/3)π × (π/3) = 4π²/9 ≈ 4.387 (pure geometric, no fitted parameters)
  • Lepton ratios: m_μ/m_e ≈ 207 from topology (0.93% error, improving)

Why mass ratios for g-2? For g-2 predictions, we need to know which particle. The scale factor R_μ = m_e/m_μ identifies the muon's position in the vacuum geometry. We separately claim to derive this ratio from topology, but validation scripts currently use measured values.

Circularity note for α: CODATA α is determined primarily from (a) electron anomaly measurements or (b) atom-recoil experiments. To ensure non-circular validation:

  • Electron g-2 test: Should use atom-recoil α (α⁻¹ = 137.035999046) for independence
  • Muon g-2 test: Independent regardless of α source (muon data not used in CODATA α)

Derived Parameters (Computed, Not Fitted)

Parameter Formula Value Derived From
β Solve Golden Loop 3.043233053 α + Axiom A2
c₁ ½(1 - α) 0.496351 α
c₂ 1/β 0.328598 β
R_vac (ξ-1)/(ξ+1) = 1/√5 0.4472 Axiom A3
V₄ (electron) -1/β -0.328598 β + R_vac

Predictions (Testable Outputs)

Prediction QFD Value Measured Error Independent of α source?
Electron g-2 0.00115963678 0.00115965218 0.0013% ⚠️ Use atom-recoil α
Muon g-2 0.00116595205 0.00116592071 0.0027% ✅ Yes
Nuclear c₁ 0.496351 0.496297 0.01% ✅ Yes
Nuclear c₂ 0.328598 0.327040 0.48% ✅ Yes
CMB T 2.7248 K 2.7255 K 0.03% ✅ Yes

Explicit Falsifiers

If any of these are measured, QFD is wrong:

  1. β ≠ 3.043: If improved α measurement yields β outside [3.04, 3.05] via Golden Loop, framework fails
  2. Electron g-2 off by >0.01%: Using atom-recoil α, if predicted g-2 deviates by more than 10× current error
  3. Muon g-2 sign flip: If muon correction is negative (currently predicted positive), geometric mechanism fails
  4. Nuclear c₂ wrong sign: If volume coefficient is positive (not negative), soliton model breaks
  5. New stable isotope violates Z(A): Any stable nuclide with Z far from c₁A^(2/3) + c₂A contradicts valley formula
  6. CMB temperature >1% off: If T_CMB ≠ 2.72±0.03 K from QFD's recombination calculation

These are not "parameters to adjust" - they are hard predictions. Failure of any one breaks the entire chain.


Methods in Brief

The Pipeline

α (measured)  →  Golden Loop  →  β (derived)  →  All other constants
    ↓                                                    ↓
1/137.036          e^β/β = (α⁻¹-1)/2π²           c₁, c₂, V₄, R_vac, ξ...

Step-by-Step

  1. Input: Fine structure constant α = 1/137.035999206 (CODATA)
  2. Golden Loop: Solve the transcendental equation 1/α = 2π²(e^β/β) + 1
  3. Result: β = 3.043233053 (vacuum stiffness)
  4. Derive everything else:
    • Nuclear surface: c₁ = ½(1 - α)
    • Nuclear volume: c₂ = 1/β
    • g-2 coefficient: V₄ = -1/β
    • Vacuum scale: R_vac = 1/√5 (from golden ratio)

Why Cl(3,3)?

The Clifford algebra Cl(3,3) with signature (+,+,+,−,−,−) is the "natural coordinate space" because:

  • Closure: All physics operations stay within one algebra
  • Centralizer = Physics: Symmetries emerge from commutation structure
  • No complex numbers: The "imaginary" i is replaced by geometric bivectors
  • 6D is complete: Three space + three internal (not "extra dimensions")

See CL33_METHODOLOGY.md for the complete 18-section explanation.

For Journalists / Non-Specialists

The one-paragraph summary: QFD claims that the "magic numbers" of physics (like 137, the fine structure constant) aren't arbitrary—they're geometric necessities, like how π must appear in any circle. Starting from just one measured number, QFD derives dozens of others that physicists normally have to measure separately. If this works, it means the universe is simpler than we thought.

Overview

QFD derives fundamental constants from geometry rather than fitting them to data. Starting from a single measured value (the fine structure constant α), all nuclear, electromagnetic, and lepton coefficients emerge through the Golden Loop transcendental equation.

Methodology: See CL33_METHODOLOGY.md for the complete explanation of why Cl(3,3) is the natural coordinate space and how each constant (α, β, c, ℏ, G, k_B, e) emerges geometrically.

The Core Equation

1/α = 2π² × (e^β / β) + 1

Why this form? This isn't a fit Ansatz—it's a selection principle from Cl(3,3) geometry:

  • The 2π² comes from integrating over the soliton's angular structure
  • The e^β/β is the unique solution to the Beltrami eigenvalue problem with hard-wall boundary
  • The +1 is the vacuum offset (α → 0 gives β → ∞, not β → 0)

See CL33_METHODOLOGY.md Section 2 for the complete derivation from Clifford algebra constraints.

Solving for β with α = 1/137.035999206:

β = 3.043233053  (vacuum stiffness - DERIVED, not fitted)

The g-2 Breakthrough

QFD predicts lepton anomalous magnetic moments with zero free parameters:

The Master Equation

V₄(R) = [(R_vac - R) / (R_vac + R)] × (ξ/β)

Where ALL parameters are derived:

  • β = 3.043233 from Golden Loop: e^β/β = (α⁻¹ - 1)/(2π²)
  • ξ = φ² = 2.618 from golden ratio (φ = 1.618...)
  • R_vac = 1/√5 derived from golden ratio (see below)
  • R = ℏc/m from lepton mass (Compton wavelength)

First-Principles Derivation of R_vac

R_vac = 1/√5 is derived, not fitted. The derivation:

  1. Postulate: The electron scale factor S_e = -1/ξ (where ξ = φ²)
  2. Möbius transform: S_e = (R_vac - 1)/(R_vac + 1) = -1/ξ
  3. Solve: R_vac = (ξ - 1)/(ξ + 1) = φ/(φ + 2) = 1/√5

Physical meaning: When S_e = -1/ξ, the electron V₄ simplifies to:

V₄(electron) = S_e × (ξ/β) = (-1/ξ) × (ξ/β) = -1/β
Domain Coefficient Value Meaning
Nuclear binding c₂ = +1/β +0.3286 Matter pushes against vacuum
Electron g-2 V₄ = -1/β -0.3286 Vacuum polarization pulls in

The electron g-2 correction equals the nuclear volume coefficient with opposite sign!

This is formally proven in Lean4: QFD/Lepton/RVacDerivation.lean

Sign Flip is Geometric Necessity

Lepton R/R_e Scale Factor S V₄ Sign
Electron 1.000 -0.382 -0.329 Negative
Muon 0.00484 +0.979 +0.842 Positive

The electron (R > R_vac) gets a negative correction. The muon (R < R_vac) gets a positive correction. This is proven in Lean4: QFD/Lepton/GeometricG2.lean


The Cl(3,3) Methodology

When in doubt, express the problem in Cl(3,3) and see which symmetry surfaces.

This approach—converting equations to Clifford algebra Cl(3,3) and looking for geometric structure—is how QFD cracked problems that seemed unrelated:

Problem What Cl(3,3) Revealed
Spacetime emergence 4D Minkowski = centralizer of internal bivector
ℏ derivation Planck constant from topological winding
Photon solitons Stability from helicity-locked coherence
Lepton masses Harmonic modes in twist energy functional
g-2 sign flip Möbius transform geometry

Why it works: Cl(3,3) has signature (+,+,+,−,−,−). The "hidden" dimensions e₄, e₅ encode internal degrees of freedom. Physics emerges from what commutes with internal rotation—the centralizer structure.

Recipe for new problems: Express in Cl(3,3) → Find the bivector subspace → Look for centralizer → The surviving symmetry IS the physics.

See THEORY.md Section 6 for the complete methodology and proof index.

Key Physics Results

1. Nuclear Physics (Zero Parameters)

The Fundamental Soliton Equation:

Z_stable(A) = c₁ × A^(2/3) + c₂ × A

Where c₁ = ½(1-α) and c₂ = 1/β are derived from α alone.

  • Conservation law: 210/210 perfect matches (p < 10⁻⁴²⁰)
  • β⁻ decay selection: 99.7% compliance
  • Fission prediction: 6/6 Tacoma Narrows validated

2. Lepton g-2 (Parameter-Free)

V₄(R) = [(R_vac - R)/(R_vac + R)] × (ξ/β)
Lepton Predicted Measured Error
Electron 0.00115963678 0.00115965218 0.0013%
Muon 0.00116595205 0.00116592059 0.0027%

The sign flip between electron and muon is a geometric necessity.

3. Lepton Mass Hierarchy

m_μ/m_e = 206.768 (observed)
QFD prediction: 204.8 (N=19 topological twist)
Error: 0.93%

4. CMB Temperature

T_CMB = T_recomb / (1 + z_recomb)
      = 3000 K / 1101
      = 2.7248 K

Observed: 2.7255 K
Error: 0.03%

5. Electric Charge is Metric-Independent

QFD proves that electric charge e is a topological invariant independent of c:

Physical formula:  e = √(4π ε₀ ℏ c α)  ← appears to depend on c
Geometric formula: e = √(4π ℏ α / Z₀)  ← manifestly c-independent

These are IDENTICAL because ε₀ = 1/(Z₀ c), so c cancels completely.

The charge depends only on α (twist), ℏ (action quantum), and Z₀ (impedance from α).

Formally proven in Lean4: QFD/Charge/GeometricCharge.lean

6. Planck Constant from Topology

QFD derives ℏ from the energy-frequency relationship of soliton solutions:

ℏ_eff = E / ω

Where the soliton is relaxed toward a Beltrami eigenfield (curl B = λB).

Three computation options available:

Script Method CV(ℏ) Time (64³) Requirements

What QFD Does NOT Claim

  • ✗ Complete replacement of QCD/QED
  • ✗ Full shell effect predictions
  • ✗ All nuclear states from first principles

Reproducibility

Every result can be reproduced with:

python analysis/scripts/run_all_validations.py

All 17 tests pass. Runtime: ~15 seconds.

Expert Reviewer Checklist

Ten focused questions keyed to concrete artifacts to decide whether QFD merits deeper study:

# Question Where to Look
1 Single Input Claim – Do all downstream theorems genuinely depend only on α via the Golden Loop axiom, or do hidden parameters creep in? formalization/QFD/Physics/Postulates.lean
2 Lean Coverage – Are any major claims still axiomatically stated rather than proved? (1,100+ theorems/lemmas proven, 0 sorries) Browse formalization/QFD/
3 Golden Loop Proof – Does the Lean proof rigorously derive β, c₁, c₂, and V₄ from α? Does Python reproduce the same numbers? formalization/QFD/GoldenLoop.lean + simulation/scripts/derive_beta_from_alpha.py
4 Nuclear Validation – Do the nuclear modules really hit 210/210 matches without tuning any coefficients? analysis/scripts/validate_conservation_law.py, run_all_validations.py
5 Lepton g-2 – Does the Lean derivation of V₄ align with Python outputs? Is R_vac = 1/√5 derived or fitted? formalization/QFD/Lepton/GeometricG2.lean, Lepton/RVacDerivation.lean, simulation/scripts/verify_lepton_g2.py
6 Photon/Soliton Sector – Do the soliton proofs demonstrate photon stability without adjustable parameters? formalization/QFD/Soliton/MassEnergyDensity.lean, Photon/PhotonSolitonStable.lean, simulation/scripts/verify_photon_soliton.py
7 Cosmology Claims – How do the cosmology axioms translate into the 2.7248 K CMB prediction? What would falsify them? Physics/Postulates.lean:774-1030, simulation/scripts/derive_cmb_temperature.py
8 Runtime & Reproducibility – Can you re-run all 17 validations in under 20s, confirming no external data or GPU tricks? python analysis/scripts/run_all_validations.py
9 Axiom Transparency – Are all explicit axiom declarations confined to one file? Do modules indicate where axioms are invoked? formalization/QFD/Physics/Postulates.lean
10 Empirical Breadth – Which major datasets (neutrino oscillations, structure formation, gravitational lensing) are outside the validation suite? Current: nuclear, lepton g-2, CMB. Future: see Contributing
