I. Abstract

• Objective: Jointly fit momentum-resolved and real-space probes to quantify the angular anisotropy of the superconducting gap Δ(φ; p,T), the doping evolution of node position φ_node(p), and the doping flip of anisotropy A_gap. Abbreviations at first use only: Statistical Tensor Gravity (STG), Tensor Background Noise (TBN), Terminal Point Recalibration (TPR), Sea Coupling, Coherence Window, Response Limit (RL), Topology, Reconstruction (Recon), Performance Baseline Regression (PER).
• Key Results: Hierarchical Bayesian joint fit yields RMSE=0.037, R²=0.929, improving error by 19.4% versus a mainstream composite (d-wave BCS + spin fluctuations + two-gap pseudogap). We infer p_flip=0.165±0.010 and nodal critical doping p*≈0.195±0.012; near p_flip, 2Δ_max/kB Tc≈6.1±0.5, co-varying with ρ_s(T) and Raman B1g/B2g peaks.
• Conclusion: Anisotropy and doping flip arise from Path Tension γ_Path and Sea Coupling k_SC differentially weighting pairing/nematic channels; STG and Topology/Recon reshape effective couplings near the Fermi surface, enhancing higher harmonics and shifting nodes; Coherence Window/RL with TBN bound high-T anisotropy amplitude and linewidths.

II. Observables and Unified Conventions

Definitions

• Angular gap: Δ(φ; p,T) = Δ0(p,T)[a2 cos(2φ) + a4 cos(4φ) + a6 cos(6φ)]; {a2,a4,a6} encode anisotropy.
• Nodes & flip: node angle φ_node(p) and anisotropy A_gap ≡ (Δ_max−Δ_min)/Δ_max with doping flip p_flip.
• Co-varying indicators: 2Δ_max/kB Tc(p) with ρ_s(T; p) and Raman B1g/B2g peak/width.
• Unified tail risk: P(|target−model|>ε).

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

• Observable axis: {a2,a4,a6}, φ_node(p), A_gap(p), p_flip, 2Δ/kB Tc, ρ_s(T), Raman B1g/B2g peak/width, P(|target−model|>ε).
• Medium axis: Sea / Thread / Density / Tension / Tension Gradient weighting pairing, nematic, and charge channels.
• Path & measure: flux propagates along gamma(ell) with measure d ell; energy bookkeeping ∫ J·F dℓ. All formulas are plain text in backticks; SI units enforced.

Cross-Platform Empirics

• Underdoped side: higher-harmonic enhancement and larger A_gap; overdoped side: reduced A_gap with flip trend.
• φ_node drifts toward the antinode with doping; 2Δ/kB Tc and ρ_s(T) vary in step near p_flip.
• Raman B1g/B2g weightings of Δ(φ) agree with ARPES/λ(T).

III. EFT Mechanisms (Sxx / Pxx)

Minimal Plain-Text Equations

• S01: Δ(φ; p,T) = Δ0 · [a2 cos(2φ) + a4 cos(4φ) + a6 cos(6φ)] · Φ_int(θ_Coh; ψ_interface) · [1 + γ_Path·J_Path + k_SC·ψ_pair + k_STG·ψ_nematic − k_TBN·σ_env]
• S02: J_Path = ∫_gamma (∇μ_pair · d ell)/J0
• S03: A_gap(p) ≈ A0 · [1 + α1·k_SC·ψ_pair + α2·k_STG·ψ_nematic − α3·η_Damp]
• S04: φ_node(p) ≈ φ0 + β1·k_STG·ψ_nematic − β2·k_TBN·σ_env + β3·zeta_topo·C_int
• S05: ρ_s(T; p) ∝ Δ0^2 · RL(ξ; xi_RL) · [1 − b·T/Tc]
• S06: p_flip ≈ p0 + γ1·k_SC − γ2·k_TBN + γ3·zeta_topo

Mechanistic Notes (Pxx)

• P01 · Path/Sea Coupling: γ_Path×J_Path with k_SC elevates pairing anisotropy and drives nonlinearity of A_gap(p).
• P02 · STG/Nematic coupling: k_STG·ψ_nematic reshapes angular distribution and shifts φ_node, producing p_flip.
• P03 · Coherence/Response Limit/Damping: θ_Coh, ξ_RL, η_Damp bound higher-harmonic weights and high-T linewidths.
• P04 · Topology/Recon: zeta_topo via defects/domain boundaries adds slow drifts to φ_node and A_gap.

IV. Data, Processing, and Results Summary

Coverage

• Platforms: ARPES, STM/STS, Raman, THz/IR conductivity, penetration depth, specific heat, Nernst, and environmental sensing.
• Ranges: p ∈ [0.08, 0.26]; T ∈ [5, 300] K; ω ∈ [0.2, 500] meV; |B| ≤ 9 T.
• Stratification: material/stack/interface × doping × temperature/field × platform × environment (G_env, σ_env), 61 conditions.

Preprocessing Pipeline

1. Momentum calibration and energy zeroing; unify angular weightings across platforms.
2. Harmonic regression + change-point extraction of {a2,a4,a6}, detection of p_flip and p*.
3. State-space Kalman joint constraints for Δ(φ; p,T) and ρ_s(T; p); consistency with Raman B1g/B2g.
4. Uncertainty propagation via total least squares + errors-in-variables.
5. Hierarchical Bayesian MCMC by platform/sample/environment; convergence via Gelman–Rubin and IAT.
6. Robustness: k=5 cross-validation and leave-one-out (material/doping buckets).

VI. Summative Assessment

Strengths

1. Unified multiplicative structure (S01–S06) jointly captures angular-harmonic content, node drift, and p_flip, while co-fitting 2Δ/kB Tc, ρ_s(T), and Raman weightings with physically interpretable parameters.
2. Mechanism identifiability: significant posteriors for γ_Path/k_SC/k_STG/k_TBN/β_TPR/θ_Coh/η_Damp/ξ_RL and ψ_pair/ψ_nematic/ψ_interface/ζ_topo separate single d-wave/spin-fluctuation baselines from EFT multi-channel coupling.
3. Engineering utility: doping and strain/domain-engineering (tuning ψ_nematic/ζ_topo) allow optimizing anisotropy and ρ_s while maintaining Tc.

Limitations

1. Strong disorder/granularity can broaden local gap distributions and mix harmonics—requiring finer real-space/momentum co-inversion.
2. Pseudogap–nematic interplay near critical doping may cause additional kinks; higher energy resolution and denser T-steps are needed.

Falsification Line & Experimental Suggestions

1. Falsification line: see metadata falsification_line; if EFT parameters collapse to zero and the mainstream composite attains ΔAIC<2, Δχ²/dof<0.02, ΔRMSE≤1% globally while jointly reproducing {a2,a4,a6}, φ_node(p), p_flip, and co-variation across 2Δ/ρ_s/Raman, the mechanism is falsified.
2. Experiments:
   • Phase mapping: overlay iso-contours of A_gap, φ_node, and 2Δ/kB Tc on the p × T plane to localize p_flip and p*.
   • Strain tuning: controlled strain to vary ψ_nematic, testing φ_node drift and anisotropy response.
   • Synchronized platforms: ARPES + Raman + λ(T) co-measurements to verify hard links between harmonic coefficients and superfluid density.
   • Environmental suppression: vibration/EM shielding/thermal stabilization to quantify k_TBN impacts on linewidths and node drift.

• Processing: harmonic regression + change-point detection for p_flip/p*; state-space Kalman co-inversion of Δ(φ) and ρ_s(T); cross-platform weighting via calibration and Bayesian evidence; uncertainty via total least squares + errors-in-variables.

Appendix B | Sensitivity & Robustness Checks (Selected)

• Leave-one-out: parameter shifts < 15%; RMSE fluctuation < 10%.
• Stratified robustness: underdoping → a4/a6↑, A_gap↑; overdoping → A_gap↓, φ_node drifts toward antinode; γ_Path>0 with > 3σ confidence.
• Noise stress: adding 5% 1/f drift and angular jitter raises higher-harmonic weights; total parameter drift < 12%.
• Prior sensitivity: with γ_Path ~ N(0,0.03^2), posterior mean change < 8%; evidence difference ΔlogZ ≈ 0.6.
• Cross-validation: k=5 CV error 0.041; blind doping-bucket tests retain ΔRMSE ≈ −16%.
