Distinguishing the counters
Canon 24 contains two different counts.
54 is the number of rows in the current active claim table. 50 is the cumulative counter in the change
history of a particular carrier/gauge programme. They differ because several early empirical atoms were not
included in that change-history counter.
| Layer | Count | Section on this page |
|---|---|---|
| Empirical TIER 1-(E) | 6 | E0–E5 |
| Gauge/function-fibre/assembly TIER 1-(F) | 44 | G0–G6 |
| Observer-relative TIER 1-(G) | 3 | O0–O2 |
| Small-neural TIER 1-(H) | 1 | N0 |
| Total | 54 | Retracted claim excluded |
The authoritative LEDGER owns the detailed English status labels and refutation conditions. This page enumerates every row active in Canon 24 and explains what each cluster does—and does not—establish.
E0–E5 — Six empirical atoms
E0 ULR-CONV-EXIST
For a limited set of concept/model pairs, relational geometry exceeds a shuffled null. Shared alignment is supported for those pairs; an observer-independent common space is not.
E1 ULR-CONV-INDEP
Independent vision-only × language-only pairs also exceed chance. Joint multimodal training therefore cannot explain the entire phenomenon, but this does not imply that every modality converges into one space.
E2 ULR-CONV-DIM
20 of 25 CIFAR dimensions and 24 of 25 Caltech dimensions exceeded the held-out null. The result supports a multidimensional phenomenon, but it does not identify 17, 20, or 24 as an exact intrinsic dimension.
E3 ULR-CONV-SEM
Alignment has a graded association with the selected semantic/language proxies. Proxy correlation must not be promoted to identity with meaning.
E4 ULR-CONV-ORIGIN
The statistic strengthens during training from a near-chance initialisation, with a typed trend of . This is evidence of a learning trend, not of an exact formation time.
E5 ULR-EMP-GAUGE-ROBUST
The T1/T2 exact results and T3 trend are preserved under the specified permutation × positive-diagonal typing. This excludes an explanation based solely on raw-coordinate artefacts, but does not establish robustness under general GL, nonlinear, or full-model gauges.
G0 — Four architecture and observable-typing claims
| ID | Canonical role |
|---|---|
ULR-GAUGE-ARCH | States that the admissible exact gauge depends on architecture |
ULR-GAUGE-COUPLE | Shows that head- and layer-level auxiliary parameters alter the gauge-action coupling |
ULR-OBS-TYPING | Requires observables to be typed as |
ULR-WRAW-EXCL | Excludes the strong claim that raw weight coordinates determine representational identity |
G0 excludes identity at the level of raw coordinates or raw geometry. The separate claim that meaning exists after quotienting does not follow.
G1 — 12 node/local-gauge claims
| ID | Local structure addressed |
|---|---|
ULR-MLA-GAUGE-LATENT | Admissible action at a latent node |
ULR-MLA-GAUGE-QK | Query/key co-transformation |
ULR-MLA-GAUGE-VO | Value/output co-transformation |
ULR-MLA-GAUGE-ROPE | Rotary positional structure and gauge |
ULR-MLA-GAUGE-HEAD | Head-index symmetry |
ULR-MLA-GAUGE-EXPERT | Expert-index symmetry |
ULR-MLA-OBS-NODE-TYPING | Observable contract at each node |
ULR-RMSNORM-EPS-SCALAR | Boundary between RMSNorm and scalar action |
ULR-GAUGE-LOCAL-CHAR-3 | Classification of the specified local characterisations |
ULR-GAUGE-SWIGLU-CHAR | Local characterisation of SwiGLU |
ULR-GAUGE-RMSNORM-CHAR | Local characterisation of RMSNorm |
ULR-GAUGE-SOFTMAX-CHAR | Local characterisation of softmax |
Transformations permitted by local equations do not yet constitute a global function gauge. Lifting and gluing are tested separately in the next layer.
G2 — Seven assembly, lifting, and gluing claims
| ID | Canonical role |
|---|---|
ULR-GAUGE-ASSEMBLY-THM | Basic theorem giving conditions for assembling node actions |
ULR-GAUGE-ASSEMBLY-UNIF | Uniformity of assembly over the specified family |
ULR-GAUGE-EXTERN-LLADA | Preregistered test on an external architecture |
ULR-GAUGE-LIFT-OBSTRUCTION | Obstruction preventing a local action from lifting to a parameter action |
ULR-GAUGE-SHARED-LIFT | Joint lift required by a shared parameter |
ULR-GAUGE-OCC-GLUE | Compatibility across multiple occurrences |
ULR-GAUGE-ATTN-GLUE | Gluing condition for an attention branch |
The central point of G2 is
These atoms make no direct claim about semantic organisation.
G3 — Four global-completeness and degeneracy claims
| ID | Canonical role |
|---|---|
ULR-GAUGE-DEG-LOCUS | Degeneracy locus where the generic law fails |
ULR-GAUGE-BLOCK-SECTOR | Sector decomposition of a minimal block |
ULR-GAUGE-JET-SPEC | Jet-level specification and the boundary of completeness |
ULR-GAUGE-G6-CLOSE | Closure of the G1–G6 work plan |
G3 establishes conditional global completeness and generic infinitesimal completeness for the specified minimal block. It does not classify the maximal gauge of every Transformer.
G4 — 10 function-fibre and quotient-rigidity claims
| ID | Canonical role |
|---|---|
ULR-GAUGE-FIBER-FINITE | Finiteness of the function fibre on the specified open set |
ULR-GAUGE-MIXING-REDUCTION | Reduction of mixing freedom |
ULR-GAUGE-BOUNDARY-B3B4 | Boundary obstructions B3/B4 |
ULR-GAUGE-POLE-EXCLUSION | Exclusion of pole degeneration |
ULR-GAUGE-BPLUS-THMC | B+ finiteness and the Theorem C chain |
ULR-ATT-QUOTIENT-IDENT | Identifiability of the ATT quotient |
ULR-MLP-CHANNEL-RIGIDITY | Conditional rigidity of the relative MLP channel fibre |
ULR-MLP-ATLAS-ADMISSIBILITY | Distinction between local rigidity and global-atlas admissibility |
ULR-EFFECTIVE-RESIDUAL | Effective residual action after quotienting |
ULR-JOINT-WITNESS-FIBER | Joint fibre structure of the specified witness |
G4 shows that a same-function fibre can be decomposed into gauge and residual components. It does not include a bridge assigning semantic or circuit identity to the residual.
G5 — Three generic/assembly-evidence claims
| ID | Canonical role |
|---|---|
ULR-MLP-V2-GENERIC-OPEN | Nonempty generic open set on which the V2 conditions hold |
ULR-MLP-V3-PILOT-QCERT | Exact rational certificate for one V3 pilot case |
ULR-GAUGE-REAL-BATTERY | Real-weight boundary battery |
A generic open set, a pilot case, and a real-weight battery occupy different evidence tiers. One pilot certificate must not be promoted to full neural universality.
G6 — Four typed-UAR-complex claims
| ID | Current meaning |
|---|---|
ULR-UAR-CH-TYPED-EXCLUSION | Off-diagonal exclusion for the typed channel source |
ULR-UAR-ASM-UNRAMIFIED | Unramifiedness of the joint assembly quotient map |
ULR-ASSEMBLY-FAILURE-CLASS | Classification of the class in which assembly fails |
ULR-ASSEMBLY-CERT-DISCRIMINANT | Discriminant boundary detected by the certificate |
These four atoms do not mean that “the UAR monomorphism is complete.” The channel map and assembly map are different maps.
O0–O2 — Three observer-relative role/port claims
O0 ULR-ROLE-PORT-SEPARATION
A persistent writer and a cache writer with the same passive trajectory and intact output separate under the declared reset/clone response . The response is preserved under GL co-transformation.
The permitted conclusion is that a role unidentifiable through passive observation can become identifiable through a richer physical interface. This is not a universal role ontology for real Transformers.
O1 ULR-PERSISTENT-SUBSPACE-IDENT-BOUNDARY
For reset response , a full-column-rank read port and a full-row-rank preparation port recover , whereas partial ports determine only . Even matrices of different rank can produce the same partial response.
The identified object is not itself, but .
O2 ULR-OBSERVER-ROLE-DISCRIMINATION
Once a role , observer filtration , and transcript laws are declared, exact deterministic discrimination is possible if and only if is -measurable. For equal priors, Bayes error is characterised by total variation:
Adaptive distinguishability over admissible policies is characterised by . Under a fixed infinite policy, finite-prefix error tends to zero if and only if the induced full path laws are mutually singular.
N0 — One small-neural application
ULR-NEURAL-ROLE-PORT-ABSORPTION
In a 32-seed engineered family, the same learned neural core is connected either to recurrent hidden state or to an attention cache. Passive outputs and activations are pairwise exact, while reset/clone responses separate for every seed. The typed response predicts held-out partial-clone transfer better than the passive predictive baseline.
However, raw port-response B3 and declared-routing B4 make nearly identical predictions, so the preregistered nonabsorption gate is not passed. The neural realisation of the exact toy remains an active result, but it does not establish a neural-specific object, learned organisation, a large-model law, or a ULR ontology.
Retracted claim excluded from the active 54
ULR-ASSEMBLY-UAR-MONO is RETRACTED-MALFORMED-COMPOSITE and is counted neither among the 44
gauge/assembly atoms nor among the active 54.
It was retracted because injectivity of the full channel incidence and unramifiedness of the joint assembly quotient were combined into one monomorphism even though they have different sources and maps.
This provenance remains visible in Canon Evolution.
How to read the 54 in one statement
The ledger's final conclusion is: preserve the strong phenomena and theorems, but do not introduce a distinct neural-specific ontology on the present evidence.
