The neutrino becomes the necessary "balancing term" - not an assumption, but an arithmetic necessity required to balance charge and spin conservation. ## Two-Layer Approach **Layer A (Property Space)**: Prove the remainder exists in (ℤ × ℤ) by pure arithmetic. The neutrino properties are computed as: ν = neutron - proton - electron. **Layer B (State Space)**: Lift to physical states Ψ via a realizability axiom. Any computed property pair can be realized by some state. This is the true "algebraic remainder theorem": the neutrino is the solution to the conservation equation N - P - e = ν. -/ /-- Particle properties as (charge, spin_halves) where spin_halves = 2·J_z. -/ abbrev Props := ℤ × ℤ /-- Extract charge from properties. -/ def charge (p : Props) : ℤ := p.1 /-- Extract spin (in units of ℏ/2) from properties. -/ def spin_halves (p : Props) : ℤ := p.2 /-- Remainder in property space: ν = parent - daughter - electron. This is pure arithmetic subtraction, computed component-wise. -/ def remainder (parent daughter electron : Props) : Props := (parent.1 - daughter.1 - electron.1, parent.2 - daughter.2 - electron.2) /-- Beta decay at the property level (no state space Ψ yet).

Given the empirical properties of neutron, proton, and electron, the remainder MUST have Q=0 and nonzero spin (specifically spin = -1/2). This is pure arithmetic: (0,1) - (1,1) - (-1,1) = (0,-1). -/ theorem neutrino_remainder_props (E : BetaDecayProps) : charge (remainder E.parent E.daughter E.electron) = 0 ∧ spin_halves (remainder E.parent E.daughter E.electron) ≠ 0 := by -- Pure arithmetic rcases E with ⟨p, d, e, hp, hd, he⟩ subst hp subst hd subst he -- remainder (0,1) - (1,1) - (-1,1) = (0, -1) constructor · simp [remainder, charge] · simp [remainder, spin_halves] /-- Realizability: every property pair can be realized by some state. This is the bridge from abstract properties to physical state space. -/ structure Realize (Ψ : Type*) where props : Ψ → Props surj : ∀ p : Props, ∃ ψ : Ψ, props ψ = p /-- **Theorem N-L5B**: Neutrino Existence in State Space. Given realizability (every property pair has a physical state), there exists a neutrino state ν with Q=0 and nonzero spin.
