/- BoltzmannEntropy.lean --------------------- Formal verification that Boltzmann's constant k_B arises as the energy cost per bit of geometric information, connected to the Planck area and the holographic principle. This supports Section 17 of "The Geometry of Necessity" and demonstrates that k_B is the "price of a bit" - the energy required to scramble one unit of geometric entropy.
