0.8b Sector Properties at a Glance
The table below consolidates, for each sector , 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.
| Manifold | Isometry | (exact) | Hosted particles | Coupling filter consequence | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2 | 2 | 27.47 MeV | Orientation filter: two helicity states = complete internal geometry; coupling , zero for | ||||
| 3 | 0 | 4.702 MeV | No intrinsic chirality: is odd-dimensional, so furnishes no chirality operator and its Dirac spinors are vector-like. The down-type left-handed weak structure is not produced here — it is inherited from the Kähler chirality through and the cross-coupling ; the doublet is a object (§6, §7) | ||||
| 4 | 3 | 0.145 MeV | Colour filter: colour handles from index theorem (§2, Part 8); colour-nonsinglet asymptotic states geometrically impossible | ||||
| 5 | 0 | MeV | Majorana/LNV filter: no on spinor bundle (); Hopf projects colour to singlet | ||||
| 6 | 4 | MeV | Colour-silence filter: ; colour contributions cancel in representation; zero strong coupling at all energies | ||||
| 10 | 6 | MeV | Gegenbauer-critical filter: exactly (Part 9 T5); coupling weight distributed with no dominant decay channel; back-reaction correction required |
Column notes. is the Euler characteristic of the compact local model; for odd-sphere sectors () the sphere has and structural counting roles are carried by the CP sector in the Hopf pair. Specifically: , , (Part 9 T15). The values are exact from the seed (primitive); derivations in §0.7 and Part 2 §9. The values use 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 (): coordinates are nested inside (colour sector), but the Hopf projection selects only the colour singlet — they are colour-neutral despite spatial overlap with the colour sector. Electrons (): ; colour contributions cancel in the representation regardless of spatial overlap with .

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. (see Part 8 §2 for explicit construction) gives three left-chiral modes , . At spacetime point , the sector component of decomposes as:
where
This integral extracts the three colour amplitudes from the full sector-space field at each spacetime point . It is the IDWT definition of the colour state at .
Colour connection formula. The colour frame can be chosen independently at each spacetime point. The unique torsion-free connection preserving the inner product on is:
This is the colour connection — the -valued coupling encoding local colour frame freedom in the sector.
Coupling transformation check. Under : . Direct computation: ✅
This is the correct transformation law. The curvature
is the colour curvature 2-form. This is a mathematical object encoding the holonomy of the colour frame; it is not a propagating field. The IDWT action (§0.2) contains no kinetic term 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 explicitly for propagating quark modes — that is, extending the colour projection : beyond the three zero modes to the full occupied spectrum ( up, charm, top). The zero-mode construction is complete (Part 8 §2); the propagating-mode projection operator is the remaining step.
