The pseudoscalar square formula for Cl(p,q) is: ω² = (-1)^{n(n-1)/2 + q} where n = p + q For Cl(3,3): (-1)^{15 + 3} = (-1)^{18} = 1 The formal proof requires ~70 lines of systematic anticommutation algebra. For infrastructure purposes, we state this as an explicit hypothesis. -/ namespace QFD.GA.HodgeDual open QFD.GA open QFD.GA.BasisReduction open QFD.GA.BasisProducts open CliffordAlgebra /-- The 6D pseudoscalar (volume element of full phase space). -/ def I_6 : Cl33 := e 0 * e 1 * e 2 * e 3 * e 4 * e 5 /-- The 4D spacetime pseudoscalar (volume element of emergent spacetime). -/ def I_4 : Cl33 := ι33 (basis_vector 0) * ι33 (basis_vector 1) * ι33 (basis_vector 2) * ι33 (basis_vector 3) /-! ## Pseudoscalar Properties The 6D pseudoscalar squares to +1 in Cl(3,3). **Mathematical Derivation**: For Cl(p,q), the pseudoscalar ω = e₀∧e₁∧...∧e_{n-1} satisfies: ω² = (-1)^{n(n-1)/2} · (product of eᵢ²) For Cl(3,3) with p=3, q=3, n=6: - Anticommutation sign: (-1)^{n(n-1)/2} = (-1)^{15} = -1 - Signature product: e₀²·e₁²·e₂²·e₃²·e₄²·e₅² = (1)(1)(1)(-1)(-1)(-1) = -1 - Combined: (-1) · (-1) = +1 **Formal Proof Status**: The complete proof requires systematic application of `basis_anticomm` and `basis_sq` over ~70 lines of calc-mode algebra. This is straightforward but tedious. For infrastructure purposes, we state this as an explicit hypothesis based on the signature calculation. **Future Work**: Complete formal proof by either: (a) Extending BasisProducts.lean with I_6 * I_6 computation, or (b) Implementing full calc chain manually -/ /-- The 6D pseudoscalar squares to +1. -/ theorem I6_square : I_6 * I_6 = 1 := by let A := e 0 * e 1 * e 2 let B := e 3 * e 4 * e 5 have hI6 : I_6 = A * B := by simp [I_6, A, B, mul_assoc] have hAB : A * B = - (B * A) := by simpa [A, B] using e012_e345_anticomm have hBA : B * A = - (A * B) := by have := congrArg Neg.neg hAB simpa [A, B] using this.symm have hA_sq : A * A = algebraMap ℝ Cl33 (-1) := by simpa [A] using e012_sq have hB_sq : B * B = algebraMap ℝ Cl33 1 := by simpa [B] using e345_sq calc I_6 * I_6 = (A * B) * (A * B) := by simp [hI6] _ = ((A * B) * A) * B := by simp [mul_assoc] _ = A * (B * A) * B := by simp [mul_assoc] _ = A * (-(A * B)) * B := by simp [hBA] _ = -((A * (A * B)) * B) := by simp [mul_assoc, mul_neg] _ = -(((A * A) * B) * B) := by simp [mul_assoc] _ = -((A * A) * (B * B)) := by simp [mul_assoc] _ = -((algebraMap ℝ Cl33 (-1)) * (algebraMap ℝ Cl33 1)) := by simp [hA_sq, hB_sq] _ = 1 := by simp /-! ## Usage Notes - Import `I6_square` theorem (not the axiom) in downstream modules - This infrastructure is used for defining Hodge duals and oriented volumes - The mathematical correctness is assured by the signature formula - Formal proof expansion is tracked as technical debt (est. 2-3 hours) -/ end QFD.GA.HodgeDual
