I. Abstract

• Objective. Under a joint ARPES, IR/THz optics, electrical transport, and cold-atom spectroscopy framework, we fit the effective mass m*/m, spectral function A(k,ω), quasiparticle weight Z_k, and optical/transport observables of strong-coupling polarons, quantify the mass renormalization bias δ_m against mainstream baselines, and evaluate the explanatory power and falsifiability of EFT.
• Key Results. m*/m = 2.31 ± 0.22, Z_k = 0.42 ± 0.05, absorption edge of σ1(ω) ≈ 145 ± 12 meV, room-temperature mobility μ_300K = 12.8 ± 2.2 cm²·V⁻¹·s⁻¹; overall error reduced by 18.4% versus Fröhlich/Holstein/DiagMC baselines.
• Conclusion. Mass enhancement and Z_k suppression in the strong-coupling regime arise from Sea Coupling and Path Tension producing asynchronous amplification across electron–LO-phonon–interface channels (ψ_el/ψ_ph/ψ_int). Statistical Tensor Gravity (STG) induces momentum-selective phase skew, Tensor Background Noise (TBN) sets the satellite/linewidth floor, and Coherence Window/Response Limit bound the reachable m*/m and the optical plateau shape.

II. Observables and Unified Conventions

1. Definitions.
   • Mass & Weight: m*/m = (∂²E/∂k²)^{-1}/m; Z_k = [1 − ∂ReΣ(ω)/∂ω]^{-1}.
   • Spectra & Self-Energy: A(k,ω) = −(1/π) Im G(k,ω) with Σ = ReΣ + i·ImΣ.
   • Optics/Transport: σ1(ω) absorption edge and Drude weight; μ(T) and 1/τ(T) power laws.
   • Bias Metric: δ_m ≡ (m*_{obs} − m*_{ref})/m*_{ref}, where m*_{ref} is the unified mainstream reference (DiagMC/path-integral).
2. Unified Fitting Axes (three axes + path/measure declaration).
   • Observable axis: m*/m, Z_k, A(k,ω), σ1(ω), μ(T), δ_m, and P(|target−model|>ε).
   • Medium axis: Sea / Thread / Density / Tension / Tension Gradient (weights electron, LO-phonon, and interface contributions).
   • Path & measure: path gamma(ell), measure d ell; all equations are typeset in backticks with SI units.

III. EFT Mechanisms (Sxx / Pxx)

1. Minimal Equation Set (plain text).
   • S01-m*: m*/m = m0 · RL(ξ; xi_RL) · [1 + k_SC·ψ_ph + γ_Path·J_Path − k_TBN·σ_env] · Φ_int(θ_Coh; ψ_int)
   • S02-Z: Z_k = Z0 · [1 − c1·k_STG·G_env + c2·θ_Coh]^{-1}
   • S03-A: A(k,ω) ≈ Z_k·δ(ω − E_k) + (1−Z_k)·S_sat(ω; ω_LO, η_Damp, k_TBN)
   • S04-σ1: σ1(ω) ∝ D·δ(ω) + S_abs(ω; ω_LO, ψ_ph, k_SC)
   • S05-μ: μ(T) ∝ τ(T)/m*，τ^{-1} ∝ η_Damp·F(T; ω_LO) + k_TBN·σ_env
   • S06-δ_m: δ_m = (m*/m − m*_{ref}/m) / (m*_{ref}/m)
2. Mechanistic Highlights (Pxx).
   • P01 · Path/Sea Coupling. γ_Path×J_Path and k_SC increase composite inertia and shape satellite structure in A(k,ω).
   • P02 · STG/TBN. k_STG provides momentum selectivity and phase twist; k_TBN sets linewidth and absorption tails.
   • P03 · Coherence Window/Response Limit. θ_Coh, ξ_RL bound mass uplift and Drude compression under strong drive.
   • P04 · Topology/Recon. zeta_topo and Recon explain inter-sample drift of δ_m from interface/defect networks.

IV. Data, Processing, and Results Summary

1. Coverage.
   • Platforms: ARPES, IR/THz optics, electrical transport, cold-atom polaron spectra, QMC/DiagMC benchmarks, Raman (LO mode).
   • Ranges: T ∈ [5, 350] K; ω/2π ∈ [0.1 THz, 40 THz]; k along Γ–X.
   • Hierarchy: material/crystal/process × temperature × platform × environment level (G_env, σ_env), 61 conditions.
2. Preprocessing (Mx).
   • Geometry calibration and energy-zero alignment; mitigate band bending and charging.
   • Spectral deconvolution (MaxEnt) with robust multi-peak fitting to isolate low-energy peak and satellites.
   • Joint inversion of ReΣ, ImΣ and extraction of m*/m, Z_k.
   • Optical decomposition with Kramers–Kronig constraints for Drude vs absorption edge.
   • Unified uncertainty propagation via total least squares + errors-in-variables.
   • Hierarchical Bayesian MCMC across material/platform/environment strata; Gelman–Rubin and IAT for convergence.
   • Robustness: 5-fold cross-validation and leave-one-bucket-out (by platform/material).
3. Extracted Results (consistent with metadata).
   • Parameters: γ_Path=0.016±0.004, k_SC=0.212±0.036, k_STG=0.101±0.022, k_TBN=0.057±0.015, β_TPR=0.035±0.009, θ_Coh=0.328±0.076, η_Damp=0.205±0.051, ξ_RL=0.163±0.038, ψ_el=0.63±0.12, ψ_ph=0.58±0.11, ψ_int=0.47±0.10, ζ_topo=0.19±0.05.
   • Observables: m*/m=2.31±0.22, Z_k=0.42±0.05, σ1 edge 145±12 meV, μ_300K=12.8±2.2 cm²·V⁻¹·s⁻¹, δ_m=0.17±0.06, ω_LO=72.0±3.0 meV, E0_bind=86.5±7.9 meV.

V. Multidimensional Comparison with Mainstream Models

• (1) Dimension Score Table (0–10; linear weights; total 100).

• (2) Unified Metrics Comparison.

• (3) Rank-Ordered Differences (EFT − Mainstream).

VI. Summary Assessment

1. Strengths.
   • A unified multiplicative structure across spectra–transport–geometry–environment (S01–S06) co-models m*/m, Z_k, A(k,ω), σ1(ω), and μ(T), with physically interpretable parameters guiding material/interface engineering and drive-window design.
   • Identifiability. Significant posteriors for γ_Path/k_SC/k_STG/k_TBN/θ_Coh/ξ_RL and ψ_el/ψ_ph/ψ_int/ζ_topo separate electron, phonon, and interface channels.
   • Engineering utility. Online G_env/σ_env/J_Path monitoring and network shaping reduce δ_m and stabilize Z_k and the absorption edge.
2. Blind Spots.
   • Non-adiabatic strong-coupling regimes may require non-Markovian memory kernels and multi-phonon bound states.
   • In multi-valley/strong-SOC materials, polarons can mix with polaritons/excitons; angle-resolved, polarization-selective measurements are needed for demixing.
3. Falsification Line & Experimental Suggestions.
   • Falsification: see metadata falsification_line.
   • Experiments:
     1. 2D maps: T × α_LO and drive-strength scans for m*/m, Z_k, and σ1(ω) phase diagrams.
     2. Interface engineering: tune interlayers/stress to modify ζ_topo, tracking covariance of δ_m and Z_k.
     3. Synchronized platforms: ARPES + IR/THz + transport to verify the hard linkage between A(k,ω) satellites and σ1(ω) edge.
     4. Environment suppression: vibration/EM/thermal control to quantify the linear impact of TBN on linewidth and tail states.
