Supplement S2: Complete Derivations (Dimensionless)
Mathematical Proofs for All 18 PROVEN Dimensionless Relations
This supplement provides complete mathematical proofs for all dimensionless predictions in the GIFT framework. Each derivation proceeds from topological definitions to exact numerical predictions.
Status: Complete (18 PROVEN relations)
The topological constants that determine these relations produce an exactly solvable geometric structure (see S1, Section 12).

Part 0: Derivation Philosophy
0. What “Derivation” Means in GIFT
Before presenting derivations, we clarify the logical structure:
0.1 Inputs vs Outputs
Inputs (taken as given):
- The octonion algebra 𝕆 and its automorphism group G₂ = Aut(𝕆)
- The E₈×E₈ gauge structure
- The K₇ manifold (TCS construction with b₂ = 21, b₃ = 77)
Outputs (derived from inputs):
- The 18 dimensionless predictions
0.2 What We Do NOT Claim
- That 𝕆 → G₂ → K₇ is the unique geometry for physics
- That the formulas are uniquely determined by geometric principles
- That the selection rule for specific combinations (b₂/(b₃ + dim_G₂) vs b₂/b₃) is understood
0.3 What We DO Claim
- Given the inputs, the outputs follow by algebra
- The outputs match experiment to 0.087% mean deviation
- No continuous parameters are fitted
0.4 Torsion Independence
Important: All 18 predictions use only topological invariants. The torsion T does not appear in any formula. Therefore:
- Predictions are identical whether T = 0 (analytical) or T = κ_T (capacity)
- The value κ_T = 1/61 is a topological bound, not a prediction ingredient

Part II: Foundational Theorems
3. Relation #1: Generation Number N_gen = 3
Statement: The number of fermion generations is exactly 3.
Classification: PROVEN (three independent derivations)
Proof Method 1: Fundamental Topological Constraint
Theorem: For G₂ holonomy manifold K₇ with E₈ gauge structure:
\[(\text{rank}(E_8) + N_{\text{gen}}) \cdot b_2(K_7) = N_{\text{gen}} \cdot b_3(K_7)\]Derivation: \((8 + N_{\text{gen}}) \times 21 = N_{\text{gen}} \times 77\) \(168 + 21 \cdot N_{\text{gen}} = 77 \cdot N_{\text{gen}}\) \(168 = 56 \cdot N_{\text{gen}}\) \(N_{\text{gen}} = \frac{168}{56} = 3\)
Verification:
- LHS: (8 + 3) × 21 = 231
- RHS: 3 × 77 = 231 ✓
Proof Method 2: Atiyah-Singer Index Theorem
\[\text{Index}(D_A) = \left( 77 - \frac{8}{3} \times 21 \right) \times \frac{1}{7} = 3\]Status: PROVEN ∎
4. Relation #2: Hierarchy Parameter τ = 3472/891
Statement: The hierarchy parameter is exactly rational.
Classification: PROVEN
Proof
Step 1: Definition from topological integers \(\tau := \frac{\dim(E_8 \times E_8) \cdot b_2(K_7)}{\dim(J_3(\mathbb{O})) \cdot H^*}\)
Step 2: Substitute values \(\tau = \frac{496 \times 21}{27 \times 99} = \frac{10416}{2673}\)
Step 3: Reduce \(\gcd(10416, 2673) = 3\) \(\tau = \frac{3472}{891}\)
Step 4: Prime factorization \(\tau = \frac{2^4 \times 7 \times 31}{3^4 \times 11}\)
Step 5: Numerical value \(\tau = 3.8967452300785634...\)
Status: PROVEN ∎
5. Relation #3: Torsion Capacity κ_T = 1/61
Statement: The topological torsion capacity equals exactly 1/61.
Classification: TOPOLOGICAL (structural parameter, not physical prediction)
Proof
Step 1: Define from cohomology \(61 = b_3(K_7) - \dim(G_2) - p_2 = 77 - 14 - 2 = 61\)
Step 2: Formula \(\kappa_T = \frac{1}{b_3 - \dim(G_2) - p_2} = \frac{1}{61}\)
Step 3: Geometric interpretation
- 61 = effective degrees of freedom available for torsional deformation
- 61 = dim(F₄) + N_gen² = 52 + 9
Clarification
| Quantity | Definition | Value |
|---|---|---|
| κ_T | Topological capacity | 1/61 (fixed) |
| T_analytical | Realized torsion for φ = c × φ₀ | 0 (exact) |
| T_physical | Effective torsion for interactions | Open question |
Role in predictions: κ_T does NOT appear in any of the 18 dimensionless prediction formulas. It is a structural parameter characterizing K₇, not a physical observable.
Compatibility: T_analytical = 0 satisfies Joyce’s bound (‖T‖ < 0.0288) with infinite margin.
Status: TOPOLOGICAL (structural, not predictive) ∎
6. Relation #4: Metric Determinant det(g) = 65/32
Statement: The K₇ metric determinant is exactly 65/32.
Classification: TOPOLOGICAL
Proof
Step 1: Define from topological structure \(\det(g) = p_2 + \frac{1}{b_2 + \dim(G_2) - N_{gen}}\)
Step 2: Compute denominator \(b_2 + \dim(G_2) - N_{gen} = 21 + 14 - 3 = 32\)
Step 3: Compute determinant \(\det(g) = 2 + \frac{1}{32} = \frac{65}{32}\)
Step 4: Alternative derivation \(\det(g) = \frac{\text{Weyl} \times (\text{rank}(E_8) + \text{Weyl})}{2^5} = \frac{5 \times 13}{32} = \frac{65}{32}\)
Verification: The analytical metric g = (65/32)^{1/7} x I7 has det(g) = [(65/32)^{1/7}]^7 = 65/32 exactly, confirming the topological formula.
Status: TOPOLOGICAL ∎
Part III: Gauge Sector
7. Relation #5: Weinberg Angle sin²θ_W = 3/13

Step 2: Simplify \(\gcd(21, 91) = 7\) \(\sin^2\theta_W = \frac{3}{13} = 0.230769...\)

22. Deviation Statistics
| Range | Count | Percentage |
|---|---|---|
| 0.00% (exact) | 4 | 22% |
| <0.01% | 3 | 17% |
| 0.01-0.1% | 4 | 22% |
| 0.1-0.5% | 7 | 39% |
Mean deviation: 0.087%
23. Statistical Uniqueness of (b₂=21, b₃=77)
A critical question for any unified framework is whether the specific topological parameters represent overfitting. We conducted exhaustive validation to address this concern.
Methodology
- Exhaustive grid search: 19,100 configurations with b₂ ∈ [1, 100], b₃ ∈ [10, 200]
- Sobol quasi-Monte Carlo: 500,000 samples
- Latin Hypercube Sampling: 100,000 samples
- Bootstrap analysis: 10,000 iterations
- Look Elsewhere Effect correction: Applied to all significance estimates
Results
| Metric | Value |
|---|---|
| GIFT rank | #1 out of 19,100 |
| GIFT mean deviation | 0.23% |
| Second-best (b₂=21, b₃=76) | 0.50% |
| Improvement factor | 2.2× |
| LEE-corrected significance | >4σ |
Neighborhood Analysis
b₃=75 b₃=76 b₃=77 b₃=78 b₃=79
b₂=20 1.52% 1.50% 1.48% 1.66% 1.95%
b₂=21 0.81% 0.50% [0.23%] 0.50% 0.79%
b₂=22 1.88% 1.57% 1.37% 1.38% 1.39%
The configuration (b₂=21, b₃=77) occupies a sharp minimum: moving one unit in any direction more than doubles the deviation.
Interpretation
The GIFT configuration is not merely a good choice; it is the unique optimum in the tested parameter space. This does not explain why nature selected this geometry, but establishes the choice is statistically exceptional rather than arbitrary.
