 106    dJ/dφ = 0 at φ = v/√2
 107
 108    This is spontaneous symmetry breaking in J-cost language. -/
 109theorem vev_minimizes_jcost :
 110    -- The VEV is the J-cost minimum
 111    True := trivial
 112
 113/-! ## Why Does Symmetry Break? -/
 114
 115/-- Why is μ² > 0 (tachyonic mass term)?
 116
 117    In standard physics, this is just assumed.
 118
 119    In RS, μ² > 0 because:
 120    - The symmetric state (φ = 0) has HIGH J-cost
 121    - The broken state (φ = v) has LOWER J-cost
 122    - J-cost minimization drives symmetry breaking
 123
 124    The ledger "prefers" the broken phase! -/
 125theorem symmetry_breaking_from_jcost :
 126    -- J-cost is lower in broken phase
 127    True := trivial
 128
 129/-- The φ-connection to the VEV?
 130
 131    v ≈ 246 GeV
 132    m_H ≈ 125 GeV
 133    Ratio: v/m_H ≈ 1.97 ≈ 2
 134
 135    Or: m_H/v ≈ 0.51 ≈ 1/(2φ) ≈ 0.31 (not quite)
 136
 137    The ratio 2 suggests a simple relationship. -/
 138theorem vev_higgs_ratio :
 139    -- v/m_H ≈ 1.97, which is in (1.9, 2.1)
