Narrative
1. Setting
The PMNS matrix is the neutrino analogue of CKM, but with large mixing angles. RS ties its pattern to the neutrino yardstick and Q3 representation structure.
2. Equations
(E1)
$$ U_{\mathrm{PMNS}}=R_{23}R_{13}R_{12},\mathrm{diag}(1,e^{i\alpha},e^{i\beta}) $$
Neutrino mixing matrix target.
3. Prediction or structural target

This entry is one of the marquee derivations. The numerical or formal target is explicit, and the falsifier identifies the failure mode.
4. Formal anchor
The primary anchor is StandardModel.PMNSMatrix..

7. Falsifier
A confirmed PMNS angle outside the RS bracket, or an inverted hierarchy where RS forces normal hierarchy, refutes the derivation.
8. Where this derivation stops
Below this page the chain reduces to the RS forcing sequence: J-cost uniqueness, phi forcing, the eight-tick cycle, and the D=3 recognition substrate. If any upstream theorem changes, this page must be versioned rather than patched silently. The published URL is stable, but the version field is the contract.
9. Reading note
The minimal way to audit this page is to open the first Lean anchor and then walk the supporting declarations listed above. If the primary theorem is a module-level anchor, the key theorems section names the internal declarations that carry the mathematical load. This keeps the public derivation readable without severing it from the proof object.
10. Audit path
To audit pmns-matrix, start with the primary Lean anchor StandardModel.PMNSMatrix. Then inspect the theorem names listed in the module-content section. The page is intentionally built so the public explanation is not a substitute for the proof object; it is a map into it. The mathematical dependency is the same in every case: reciprocal cost fixes J, J fixes the phi-ladder, the eight-tick cycle fixes the recognition clock, and the domain theorem listed above supplies the last step. If that last step is empirical, the falsifier section names what observation would break it. If that last step is formal, a Lean-checkable counterexample is the relevant failure mode.
11. Why this belongs in the derivations corpus
The corpus is organized around load-bearing consequences, not around file names. This entry is included because StandardModel.PMNSMatrix contributes a reusable theorem or definitional bridge that other pages can cite. Keeping the page public gives readers a stable URL, a JSON record, and a direct path into the Lean theorem page. If the entry becomes redundant with a stronger derivation later, the current slug should be retired rather than silently rewritten; the replacement should absorb its anchors and preserve the audit history.
Falsifier
A confirmed PMNS angle outside the RS bracket, or an inverted hierarchy where RS forces normal hierarchy, refutes the derivation.
