DiscreteCurvature module defines deficit angles and curvature extraction on a cubic lattice for Recognition Science gravity. Lattice gravity researchers cite these primitives when building discrete Ricci scalars. The module consists of definitions and elementary lemmas with no complex proofs.

claimThe dihedral angle of a cube equals $pi/2$. Deficit angles vanish on flat lattices and scale as $a^2$ under deformation parameter $a$. Curvature equals the sum of deficit angles at each vertex.

background

Recognition Science discretizes gravity on a cubic lattice using the time quantum tau_0 = 1 tick imported from Constants. The module introduces the cube dihedral angle pi/2 and defines deficit angles for flat and deformed cases, along with curvature extracted from those deficits. It supplies the geometric building blocks referenced by the downstream LatticeRicci construction of the lattice Ricci scalar.

proof idea

this is a definition module, no proofs

why it matters in Recognition Science

Supplies the discrete curvature primitives that LatticeRicci uses to define the lattice Ricci scalar from deficit angles and prove convergence to the continuum Ricci scalar in the linearized regime. It fills the geometric foundation for Step 4 in the lattice gravity development.
