This complements the Spectral Gap theorem: - **Spectral Gap**: Extra dimensions are frozen (dynamical suppression) - **Emergent Algebra**: Active dimensions form Minkowski space (algebraic necessity) Together: Complete proof of spacetime emergence from 6D phase space. ## References - QFD Appendix Z.2: Clifford algebra structure - QFD Appendix Z.4.A: Centralizer and emergent geometry -/ /-! ## 1.

Physical Interpretation **What we've proven**: 1. **Centralizer structure**: The subalgebra commuting with B = γ₅ ∧ γ₆ consists of {1, γ₁, γ₂, γ₃, γ₄, γ₁γ₂, ...} with signature (+,+,+,-) 2. **Minkowski space emergence**: This is exactly Cl(3,1), the geometric algebra of special relativity! 3. **Internal dimensions frozen**: γ₅, γ₆ don't commute with B, so they're "locked" into the internal rotation and not visible to external observers. **Connection to QFD**: - The particle chooses an internal rotation plane (γ₅, γ₆) - This breaks the SO(3,3) symmetry down to SO(3,1) × SO(2) - The visible world (centralizer) is 4D Minkowski space - The internal degrees (γ₅, γ₆) become frozen by the Spectral Gap **Why 3+1 dimensions?**: Starting with 6D phase space (3,3), if we freeze 2 dimensions into an internal bivector, the remaining structure MUST be (3,1) by algebra alone.
