In QFD, the Proton Mass is the "Vacuum Stiffness" ($\lambda$), a derived property determined by the requirement that the Electron (a low-density vortex) and the Nucleus (a high-density soliton) exist in the same medium. **PARADIGM SHIFT**: As of 2026-01-06, the coefficients c₁ and c₂ are no longer empirical fits—they are PREDICTIONS derived from the fine structure constant α via the Golden Loop transcendental equation. This theorem serves as the definitive test of Unified Field Theory in QFD. ## k_geom Derivation Pipeline (Book v8.3, Appendix Z.12) The geometric factor k_geom is defined here as `7π/5 ≈ 4.398`. This is a **canonical closed-form approximation** — one of several values across the Lean codebase representing different stages of the derivation: - Stage 1 (pure geometry): V₆/V₄ = π/3 ≈ 1.047 (GeometricProjection_Integration.lean) - Stage 3 (bare eigenvalue): k_Hill = (56/15)^(1/5) ≈ 1.30 - Stage 3+4 (composite): (4/3)π × TopologicalTax ≈ 4.381 (ProtonBridge_Geometry.lean) - **This file**: 7π/5 ≈ 4.398 (canonical closed form) - Stage 5 (physical): k_geom = k_Hill × (π/α)^(1/5) = 4.4028 (book v8.3) The formula `k_geom = k_Hill × (π/α)^(1/5)` comes from the asymmetric renormalization of gradient (A) and potential (B) integrals under: (i) vector-spinor enhancement of curvature stiffness (ii) right-angle poloidal flow turn in Cl(3,3)→Cl(3,1) projection (iii) dimensional projection integrating out compact phase direction All Lean values (4.38-4.40) and the book value (4.4028) agree within 1%. The fifth-root structure provides robustness: a 10% change in A/B shifts k_geom by only ~2%. See K_GEOM_REFERENCE.md for the complete reconciliation. -/ -- 1.
