0.8b Sector Properties at a Glance

The table below consolidates, for each sector d∈Dd \in D, the geometric, coupling, and scale properties discussed separately in §0.7–§0.8 and Parts 1–2. One row per sector; read across for the complete coupling profile of each particle family.

The down-type left-handed weak structure is not produced here — it is inherited from the d=4d=4 CP2\mathbb{CP}^2 Kähler chirality through d=3⊂d=4d{=}3\subset d{=}4 and the cross-coupling g3,4g_{3,4}; the (uL,dL)(u_L,d_L) doublet is a CP2\mathbb{CP}^2 object (§6, §7)

Column notes. χ\chi is the Euler characteristic of the compact local CPk\mathbb{CP}^k model; for odd-sphere sectors (d=3,5d=3,5) the sphere has χ(Sd)=0\chi(S^d)=0 and structural counting roles are carried by the CP sector in the Hopf pair. Specifically: χ(CP2)=Nc=3\chi(\mathbb{CP}^2)=N_c=3, χ(CP3)=ns=4\chi(\mathbb{CP}^3)=n_s=4, χ(CP5)=Nf=6\chi(\mathbb{CP}^5)=N_f=6 (Part 9 T15). The gddg_{dd} values are exact from the seed nu=3n_u=3 (primitive); derivations in §0.7 and Part 2 §9. The mscalem_{\rm scale} values use me=0.511m_e=0.511 MeV as the unit reference (Part 2 §10).

Coordinate containment vs coupling filter. These are two distinct necessary conditions. Coordinate containment (§0.8) governs which forces can reach a particle: a force couples to a particle only if the particle's sector contains that force's sector. The coupling filter governs what happens within that sector: even with support in the sector, the particle's own sector geometry may project the relevant representation to zero. Both must hold for coupling to occur. Neutrinos (d=5d=5): coordinates are nested inside Ξ4\Xi_4 (colour sector), but the S5S^5 Hopf projection selects only the colour singlet — they are colour-neutral despite spatial overlap with the colour sector. Electrons (d=6d=6): χ(CP3)=4≠3\chi(\mathbb{CP}^3)=4\neq 3; colour contributions cancel in the SU(4)\mathrm{SU}(4) representation regardless of spatial overlap with Ξ4\Xi_4.

3a. Explicit Colour Connection Construction 🔶

The argument above establishes that a connection must exist. This subsection constructs it explicitly from the IDWT sector field.

The colour triplet state. χ(CP2)=3\chi(\mathbb{CP}^2) = 3 (see Part 8 §2 for explicit construction) gives three left-chiral modes ϕa∈L2(CP2)\phi_a\in L^2(\mathbb{CP}^2), a=1,2,3a = 1, 2, 3. At spacetime point xx, the d=4d=4 sector component of Ψ∞\Psi_\infty decomposes as:

ψcolor(x)=(ψ1(x),ψ2(x),ψ3(x))∈C3\psi_{\rm color}(x) = \bigl(\psi^1(x), \psi^2(x), \psi^3(x)\bigr) \in \mathbb{C}^3

where

ψa(x)=∫CP2ϕa∗(ξ) Ψ∞(d=4)(x,ξ) dμCP2\psi^a(x) = \int_{\mathbb{CP}^2} \phi_a^*(\xi)\,\Psi_\infty^{(d=4)}(x,\xi)\,d\mu_{\mathbb{CP}^2}

This integral extracts the three colour amplitudes from the full sector-space field at each spacetime point xx. It is the IDWT definition of the colour state at xx.

Colour connection formula. The colour frame can be chosen independently at each spacetime point. The unique torsion-free SU(3)\mathrm{SU}(3) connection preserving the L2(CP2)L^2(\mathbb{CP}^2) inner product on HcolourH_{\rm colour} is:

Aμ(x)=i ψcolor†(x) ∂μψcolor(x)  ∈  su(3)A_\mu(x) = i\,\psi_{\rm color}^\dagger(x)\,\partial_\mu\psi_{\rm color}(x) \;\in\; \mathfrak{su}(3)

This is the colour connection — the SU(3)\mathrm{SU}(3)-valued coupling encoding local colour frame freedom in the d=4d=4 sector.

Coupling transformation check. Under U(x)∈SU(3)U(x)\in\mathrm{SU}(3): ψcolor(x)→U(x)ψcolor(x)\psi_{\rm color}(x)\to U(x)\psi_{\rm color}(x). Direct computation: ✅

Aμ  →  i(Uψ)†∂μ(Uψ)=U†AμU+U†∂μUA_\mu \;\to\; i(U\psi)^\dagger\partial_\mu(U\psi) = U^\dagger A_\mu U + U^\dagger\partial_\mu U

This is the correct SU(3)\mathrm{SU}(3) transformation law. The curvature

Fμν=∂μAν−∂νAμ+i[Aμ,Aν]  ∈  su(3)F_{\mu\nu} = \partial_\mu A_\nu - \partial_\nu A_\mu + i[A_\mu, A_\nu] \;\in\; \mathfrak{su}(3)

is the colour curvature 2-form. This is a mathematical object encoding the SU(3)\mathrm{SU}(3) holonomy of the colour frame; it is not a propagating field. The IDWT action (§0.2) contains no kinetic term FμνFμνF_{\mu\nu}F^{\mu\nu} for this connection — the colour interaction is entirely in the kernel contact term.

Status. The colour connection is defined and transforms correctly for the zero-mode sector. What remains is constructing ψcolor(x)\psi_{\rm color}(x) explicitly for propagating quark modes — that is, extending the colour projection PcolorP_{\rm color}: Ψ∞(d=4)→ψcolor\Psi_\infty^{(d=4)} \to \psi_{\rm color} beyond the three CP2\mathbb{CP}^2 zero modes to the full occupied spectrum (n=3n=3 up, n=20n=20 charm, n=72n=72 top). The zero-mode construction is complete (Part 8 §2); the propagating-mode projection operator is the remaining step.
