Usage in Publications

When using GIFT predictions:

Cite framework - Use software citation above
Cite specific results - Use appropriate document citation
Specify version - Always include version number (v3.3)
Link repository - Include GitHub URL for reproducibility

Example

“We compare our measurements with predictions from the Geometric Information Field Theory (GIFT) framework [1], which derives Standard Model parameters from E₈×E₈ topology. The GIFT prediction for the CP violation phase is δ_CP = 197° [2].”
