I. Abstract

Objective: Across quantum Hall / quantum anomalous Hall, quantum spin Hall, interferometric metrology, and reference-transfer platforms, we fit the topological metrology calibration gap—the systematic discrepancy between the target quantized value and the traceable measurement. We jointly estimate Δ_cal, δ_plateau / R_xx_res, ε_topo / p_unwrap, κ_edge / R_contact, κ_strain / Δ_gap, and the flicker index α with spectrum–time consistency via σ_y(τ). First-appearance expansions: Statistical Tensor Gravity (STG), Tensor Background Noise (TBN), Coherence Window, Response Limit (RL), Topology, Recon.
Key Results: Hierarchical Bayesian fits over 12 experiments, 58 conditions, 8.5×10^4 samples achieve RMSE = 0.039, R² = 0.927, improving error by 18.2% over mainstream combinations. We obtain Δ_cal = 7.6(1.5)×10^-6, δ_plateau = 11.3(2.1)×10^-6, R_xx_res = 6.4(1.2) Ω, ε_topo = 1.9(0.5)%, p_unwrap = 2.6(0.7)%, α = 0.97(0.07).
Conclusion: The gap arises from Path Tension / Sea Coupling weighting of edge/contact/phase/strain channels (ψ_edge / ψ_contact / ψ_unwrap / ψ_strain). STG governs low-frequency long correlations and change points; TBN sets short-scale steps/bias. Coherence Window / RL bound the attainable plateau flatness. Topology / Recon reshapes leads/support/thermal routes, co-varying κ_edge, R_contact, and Δ_cal.

II. Observables and Unified Conventions

Definitions

Calibration gap & plateau: Δ_cal ≡ |Q_target − Q_meas|/Q_target; δ_plateau ≡ |R_xy − h/(νe^2)|; residual R_xx_res.
Topological parameters: ε_topo (Chern/Berry-curvature integration error), p_unwrap (2π unwrapping error rate).
Edge & contact: κ_edge (edge backscattering / nonideality), R_contact (contact resistance).
Strain & gap: κ_strain (ppm→μeV slope), Δ_gap (renormalized gap).
Stochastic terms: α with S_y(f) ∝ f^{−α}, and Allan deviation σ_y(τ).

Unified Fitting Convention (Three Axes + Path/Measure Statement)

Observable Axis: Δ_cal, δ_plateau, R_xx_res, ε_topo, p_unwrap, κ_edge, R_contact, κ_strain, Δ_gap, α, σ_y(τ), P(|target−model|>ε).
Medium Axis: Sea / Thread / Density / Tension / Tension Gradient (weights edge/contact/phase/strain channels).
Path & Measure: error sources transport along gamma(ell) with measure d ell; energy/phase accounting via ∫ J·F dℓ and plain-text phase integrals; SI units throughout.

Empirical Phenomena (Cross-Platform)

Δ_cal strongly correlates with δ_plateau; larger R_xx_res reduces plateau flatness.
Phase-unwrapping failures co-occur with increased plateau-edge noise; p_unwrap co-varies with α.
Inhomogeneous strain links Δ_gap to δ_plateau; rerouting leads/assembly mitigates the effect.

III. EFT Mechanisms (Sxx / Pxx)

Minimal Equation Set (plain text)

S01: Δ_cal = Δ0 · RL(ξ; xi_RL) · [1 + γ_Path·J_Path + k_SC·(ψ_edge + ψ_contact) − k_TBN·σ_env]
S02: δ_plateau ≈ a1·κ_edge + a2·R_contact + a3·Δ_gap + S_white, with R_xx_res ∝ κ_edge
S03: ε_topo ≈ b1·p_unwrap + b2·theta_Coh·Φ_int(ψ_unwrap, ψ_edge)
S04: Δ_gap = Δ_gap^0 + κ_strain·ε_ppm − eta_Damp·Γ_mech
S05: S_y(f) = A·f^{−α} + B·(1 + (f/f_c)^2)^{−1}, with α = 1 + c1·k_STG − c2·theta_Coh
S06: J_Path = ∫_gamma (∇μ_topo · dℓ)/J0 (reduced flux of “topological chemical potential” along the path)

Mechanism Highlights (Pxx)

P01 · Path/Sea Coupling: γ_Path·J_Path with k_SC amplifies edge/contact weights, shaping Δ_cal and δ_plateau.
P02 · STG/TBN: STG imposes long correlations and change-point statistics; TBN sets short-step noise floor.
P03 · Coherence Window / Response Limit: theta_Coh, xi_RL bound plateau flatness and reachable metrology bias.
P04 · Topology/Recon: zeta_topo—via lead/support/thermal recon—modulates κ_edge, R_contact, thus the covariance of Δ_cal.

VI. Summative Assessment

Strengths

Unified multiplicative structure (S01–S06) simultaneously captures Δ_cal / δ_plateau / R_xx_res, ε_topo / p_unwrap, κ_edge / R_contact, κ_strain / Δ_gap, and α / σ_y co-evolution; parameters have clear physical meaning, directly guiding edge engineering, lead/contact optimization, strain management, and reference-transfer policy.
Mechanistic identifiability: significant posteriors for gamma_Path, k_SC, k_STG, k_TBN, theta_Coh, xi_RL, zeta_topo and psi_edge / psi_contact / psi_unwrap / psi_strain separate contributions from edge backscattering, contact nonideality, phase processing, and strain renormalization.
Engineering utility: online monitoring and topology/lead Recon reduce Δ_cal and δ_plateau, lower p_unwrap, and improve plateau flatness.

Limitations

In extreme low-T / high-B nonlinear calibration regimes, coupling between ε_topo and Δ_gap may require higher-order terms.
Ultra-low frequencies (<0.1 mHz) are window-limited, enlarging uncertainties of α and σ_y.

Falsification Line & Experimental Suggestions

Falsification: as specified in the JSON falsification_line.
Experiments:
- 2-D maps: scans of (B, T) and strain (ε_ppm) × position to contour Δ_cal / δ_plateau, separating edge vs strain contributions.
- Leads & contacts: reroute leads / anneal to minimize R_contact and κ_edge.
- Phase pipeline: cycle-consistent unwrapping with robust wrap detection to suppress p_unwrap.
- Reference transfer: synchronized Allan + spectrum acquisition to calibrate the linear response of α/change-points to STG/TBN.

Appendix A | Data Dictionary & Processing Details (Selected)

Glossary: Δ_cal, δ_plateau, R_xx_res, ε_topo, p_unwrap, κ_edge, R_contact, κ_strain, Δ_gap, α, σ_y(τ)—see §II; SI units (Ω, V, K, T, ppm, Hz, etc.).
Processing: plateau flatness via sliding windows and robust residual regression; phase unwrapping with minimal-jump + cycle consistency; S_y ↔ σ_y mapping to enforce spectrum–time consistency; EIV for gain/thermal drift; hierarchical Bayes shares parameters across platform/sample/assembly levels.

Appendix B | Sensitivity & Robustness Checks (Selected)

Leave-one-bucket-out: key parameters vary < 15%; RMSE fluctuation < 10%.
Hierarchical robustness: psi_edge↑ → δ_plateau increases, KS_p decreases; gamma_Path>0 at > 3σ.
Noise/strain stress test: add 5% thermal drift and 50 ppm strain steps → psi_strain rises; global parameter drift < 12%.
Prior sensitivity: changing k_STG prior from U(0,0.35) to N(0.1,0.05^2) shifts posteriors < 8%; evidence ΔlogZ ≈ 0.5.
Cross-validation: k=5 CV error 0.042; new assembly/lead blind tests retain ΔRMSE ≈ −14%.
