Packages the 12-member star of a seed hinge in the 4D Freudenthal triangulation: incidence masks, membership, near/far square-edge classes, and flat Gram/apex numerics used by deficit kernels. Gravity analysts cite it when assembling the flat Regge Hessian or Bloch symbols from committed star data. Structure is definitional incidence plus completeness lemmas over the imported 15-class stencil and dihedral flat kernel.

claimOn the 4D Freudenthal lattice, fix a seed hinge. The module defines its local star of cardinality $12$, with membership predicates, cube translations and hinge masks, a partition of incident square edges into near and far classes, and the flat numerical ingredients (hinge Gram determinant and apex dot products) that feed the star deficit kernel at zero curvature.

background

In 4D Regge calculus the curvature degrees of freedom live on triangular hinges. The second variation of the action at flat space is assembled from area gradients and deficit responses summed over the star of 4-simplices incident to each hinge. This module sits in the QG full-theory kernel chain after the 15-class edge stencil (ReggeEdgeStencil4D), the Freudenthal hinge-incidence and flat-Hessian skeleton (ReggeHinge4DFlatKernel), and the seed-hinge dihedral cosine kernel (ReggeHinge4DDihedralKernel).

Those upstream layers supply Freudenthal incidence and the provisional finite TT quadratic; they never redefine the stencil API. Here the local geometry is specialized to one seed hinge: cube translations, local hinge masks, a StarMember type, an explicit 12-element star list with length and completeness theorems, and the near/far flat square-edge split together with flat Gram-determinant and apex-dot numerics used by deficit weights.

proof idea

Definition-heavy analysis module, not a single theorem. It introduces star incidence data (masks, membership, the enumerated 12-star) and proves bookkeeping facts: star list length, completeness relative to the hinge-containment predicate, and cardinality $12$. Near/far square-edge classifiers and the flat scalars hingeGramDet_near / apexDotNum_near are closed-form definitions on the imported dihedral and flat kernels. No deep analytic argument; the work is combinatorial packaging so downstream Hessian and Bloch folds can consume a committed star kernel.

why it matters in Recognition Science

This is the committed 12-star kernel that later modules treat as the local deficit building block. ReggeFlat4DHessianAssembly assembles per-orbit star deficit kernels with Heron area gradients into the flat second-variation quadratic, replacing the provisional weight-1 aggregate of the edge stencil. ReggeBlochAllOrbitSymbol4D and ReggeBlochTransportedAllOrbit4D fold those kernels over the six $S_4$ hinge types into continuum-facing Bloch symbols and $m^2$ moments. Regge4DExactActionSymbol uses the same star data in the $H_{\mathrm{fold}}$ pivot that annihilates vertex-gauge modes and sends normalized TT to $-1/4$. The companion audit module requires every public theorem here to print only in [propext, Classical.choice, Quot.sound].
