IndisputableMonolith.Relativity.Geometry.MetricUnification
The module defines the RS-forced Minkowski metric as a function Fin 4 → Fin 4 → ℝ together with its component equalities. Researchers bridging the discrete Recognition Science lattice to continuum GR would cite these definitions when importing the geometry layer. The module is a collection of direct definitions and equality lemmas with no tactic proofs.
claimThe RS Minkowski metric is the function $rs_eta : Fin 4 → Fin 4 → ℝ$ with $rs_eta(0,0) = -1$, $rs_eta(i,i) = 1$ for $i=1,2,3$, and $rs_eta(μ,ν)=0$ otherwise, satisfying $rs_eta = rs_minkowski$ and the standard diagonal form forced by the T0-T8 chain.
background
This module belongs to the Relativity.Geometry section and supplies the metric that appears in the discrete-to-continuum bridge. It imports the Tensor, Metric, and Curvature modules; the Tensor import is explicitly marked as scaffolding and outside the certificate chain. The supplied doc-comment states that the metric is the RS-style Minkowski form forced by the T0-T8 chain (T5 J-uniqueness through T8 D=3 spatial dimensions). Sibling declarations rs_eta, rs_minkowski, rs_eta_00 through rs_eta_offdiag, and rs_eta_symm give the explicit components and symmetry.
proof idea
This is a definition module, no proofs.
why it matters in Recognition Science
The module feeds the Geometry aggregator (which re-exports all geometry components) and the DiscreteBridge module whose doc-comment describes the chain J-cost lattice → quadratic defect → lattice Laplacian → Ricci scalar → Einstein tensor → EFE. It therefore supplies the metric object required for any later derivation of the Einstein field equations inside the Recognition Science framework.
scope and limits
- Does not derive the T0-T8 forcing chain.
- Does not compute Christoffel symbols or curvature tensors.
- Does not treat non-Minkowski or curved metrics.
- Does not contain lattice J-cost or discrete defect definitions.
