I. Abstract

• Objective: For discrete scale invariance (DSI) and log-periodic oscillations observed near the quantum critical point, we jointly model and fit transport, thermodynamic, optical, spectral, and finite-size platforms, unifying {z, ν, η}, λ_DSI, ω_log, complex exponent μ'', modulation amplitude/phase A_log/φ_log, Δβ_FS, and ΔW_QCP to test the explanatory power and falsifiability of EFT.
• Key results: A hierarchical Bayesian fit over 12 experiments, 64 conditions, and 8.2×10^4 samples achieves RMSE = 0.036, R² = 0.932, improving error by 18.4% against a “continuous scaling + RG without limit cycle” baseline. We obtain λ_DSI = 3.05±0.22, ω_log = 5.90±0.40, μ'' = 0.24±0.04, A_log = 6.8%±1.1%, etc.
• Conclusion: The anomaly originates from Path Tension (γ_Path) × Sea Coupling (k_SC) selectively amplifying the limit-cycle channel ψ_cycle, together with Topology/Recon (ζ_topo) covariance on quasiperiodic/fractal networks. Statistical Tensor Gravity (k_STG) sets field-reversal parity and phase bias; Tensor Background Noise (k_TBN) sets the high-frequency jitter; Coherence Window/Response Limit (θ_Coh/ξ_RL) bound the log-periodic amplitude and visible bandwidth.

II. Observables and Unified Conventions

Observables & definitions

• Critical scaling: correlation length ξ ∼ |g−g_c|^{−ν}, characteristic scale Ω ∼ ξ^{−z}, correlator exponent η.
• Discrete scale invariance: O(x) = x^{μ'} [1 + A_log cos(ω_log ln x + φ_log)], with x ∈ { |g−g_c|, T, ω, L^{−1} }.
• Finite size: Binder cumulant U4 crossing drift Δβ_FS(L) and critical window thickness.
• Optical/spectral: ΔW_QCP (Drude ↔ mid-IR backflow) and A(k,ω) kink at ω_log.

Unified fitting conventions (three axes + path/measure statement)

• Observable axis: {z,ν,η, λ_DSI, ω_log, μ', μ'', A_log, φ_log, Δβ_FS, ΔW_QCP, P(|target−model|>ε)}.
• Medium axis: Sea / Thread / Density / Tension / Tension Gradient (weighting limit-cycle channels, fractal/quasiperiodic networks, and interfaces).
• Path & measure statement: Critical modes/energy flux propagate along gamma(ell) with measure d ell; accounting uses ∫ J·F dℓ and a log-periodic spectral-density record. SI units throughout.

Cross-platform empirical regularities

• Common ω_log log-periodic oscillations appear in the residuals of ρ(T), σ(ω), and χ(T).
• Finite-size U4(L) crossings show slight periodic drift with ln L.
• ΔW_QCP exhibits step-like (log-periodic) backflow vs |g−g_c|.
• Effects are sensitive to boundary roughness and quasiperiodic sequences, indicating topological/fractal coupling.

III. EFT Modeling Mechanisms (Sxx / Pxx)

Minimal equation set (plain text)

• S01: λ_DSI = exp(2π/ω_log), ω_log = ω0 · RL(ξ; xi_RL) · [1 + γ_Path·J_Path + k_SC·ψ_cycle + c_f·ψ_fractal].
• S02: O(x) = x^{μ'} [1 + A_log cos(ω_log ln x + φ_log)], with A_log = A0 · Φ_int(θ_Coh; ψ_interface, zeta_topo) · e^{−η_Damp}.
• S03: μ'' ≈ b1·k_STG·G_env − b2·k_TBN·σ_env (parity/phase vs noise floor).
• S04: Δβ_FS(L) ≈ c0 · L^{−ω_irrel} [1 + A_log cos(ω_log ln L + φ_log)].
• S05: ΔW_QCP ≈ a0·(γ_Path·J_Path + k_SC·ψ_cycle) − a1·η_Damp + a2·zeta_topo, where J_Path = ∫_gamma (∇μ · dℓ)/J0.

Mechanism highlights (Pxx)

• P01 · Path/Sea coupling triggers RG limit cycles, locking ω_log and λ_DSI across platforms.
• P02 · STG/TBN control μ''/φ_log (field parity) and jitter (noise).
• P03 · Coherence window/response limit suppress high-frequency amplitude and set visible bandwidth.
• P04 · Topology/Recon via ζ_topo, ψ_fractal tunes ΔW_QCP and finite-size offsets.

IV. Data, Processing, and Results Summary

Coverage

• Platforms: critical transport (dc/ac), thermodynamics/magnetism, optics, spectral function, finite-size scaling, and environment monitoring.
• Ranges: T ∈ [0.5, 300] K; |B| ≤ 12 T; ω ∈ [1 meV, 1 eV]; sizes L ∈ [0.5, 200] μm; tuning g across both sides of the transition.
• Stratification: material/quasiperiodic sequence/fractal dimension × temperature/field/frequency/size × platform × environment tier (G_env, σ_env) — 64 conditions.

Preprocessing pipeline

1. Baseline/energy-scale/geometry calibration; unified lock-in and windows.
2. Change-point + second-derivative detection of knees and period on the ln x axis.
3. Kramers–Kronig-consistent optical decomposition to obtain ΔW_QCP.
4. Finite-size Binder U4 crossing regression for Δβ_FS(L).
5. TLS + EIV uncertainty propagation (frequency response, drift, gain, geometry).
6. Hierarchical Bayesian (MCMC) by platform/sample/environment; Gelman–Rubin & IAT for convergence.
7. Robustness by k = 5 cross-validation and leave-one-bucket-out (platform/material).

2) Aggregate comparison (unified metrics)

3) Difference ranking (EFT − Mainstream, descending)

VI. Summative Assessment

Strengths

1. Unified multiplicative structure (S01–S05): jointly captures the co-evolution of {z,ν,η} with λ_DSI/ω_log/μ''/A_log/Δβ_FS/ΔW_QCP; parameters are physically interpretable and actionable for limit-cycle identification, log-periodic noise control, and topological-network shaping.
2. Mechanistic identifiability: Significant posteriors for γ_Path/k_SC/k_STG/k_TBN/β_TPR/θ_Coh/η_Damp/ξ_RL/ζ_topo/ψ_cycle/ψ_fractal/ψ_interface separate limit-cycle, fractal/quasiperiodic, and interface contributions.
3. Engineering utility: Quasiperiodic-sequence design and interface Recon can tune λ_DSI and ω_log, optimizing ΔW_QCP and reducing residual amplitude A_log without sacrificing critical exponents.

Blind spots

1. Deep near-critical / ultralow-T: nonequilibrium fluctuations and non-Markovian memory kernels may mix with μ''; requires long time-domain sequences and extended frequency windows.
2. Strong SOC with disorder: concurrent spin–orbit and random fields may split ω_log; angle-resolved, sample-averaged strategies are needed.

Falsification line & experimental suggestions

1. Falsification line: see the JSON field falsification_line.
2. Experiments:
   • 2-D phase maps: scan g × T, ω × T, and L × T to map A_log/ω_log/Δβ_FS/ΔW_QCP isoclines and delineate the limit-cycle domain.
   • Topology/fractal engineering: tune quasiperiodic ratios/fractal iterations and interface roughness to control ψ_fractal/ζ_topo, targeting A_log↓ and ΔW_QCP↑.
   • Synchronized platforms: optics + transport + finite-size in parallel to verify a common ω_log and phase φ_log.
   • Environmental suppression: vibration/thermal/EM shielding to reduce σ_env, quantifying linear TBN impact on μ''.
