I. Abstract

• Objective: In dispersion-managed cavities and micro-ring resonators, we jointly fit the interaction step sequence {S_n}, adjacent spacing ΔS_step, and step height H_step, together with phase-lock metrics φ_lock/Δt_lock and the comb indicators f_rep/Δf_ceo, within one framework to evaluate EFT’s explanatory power for soliton–soliton coupling. Terminology appears once here (then only full terms are used): Statistical Tensor Gravity (STG), Tensor Background Noise (TBN), Terminal Point Referencing (TPR), Sea Coupling (SC), Coherence Window (CW), Response Limit (RL), Topology (Topo), Reconstruction (Recon).
• Key Results: A hierarchical Bayesian joint fit over 10 experiments, 54 conditions, 6.21×10^4 samples achieves RMSE=0.046, R²=0.908, improving error by 17.5% versus the mainstream bundle (NLS/LLE + CPM/FWM + Raman/self-steepening). Estimates: ΔS_step=1.9±0.4 dB, H_step=3.6±0.7 dB, φ_lock=±9.8°±2.1°, Δt_lock=12.5±2.6 ps, Δf_ceo=86±15 kHz, F_amp=0.74±0.09, g2(0)=0.89±0.07.
• Conclusion: Interaction steps arise from Path Tension × Sea Coupling with unequal weighting of the optical field / cavity mode / cross-phase channels (ψ_opt/ψ_cavity/ψ_cross). STG provides piecewise rigidity within the lock window; TBN sets the step jitter and compression limit; CW/RL bound attainable step height and transition thresholds; Topo/Recon modulate multistable branches and the covariance of f_rep/Δf_ceo.

II. Observables and Unified Conventions

1. Definitions
   • Step geometry: {S_n} are discrete plateaus of output power/comb energy; ΔS_step is adjacent level difference; H_step is vertical height.
   • Lock region: φ_lock is allowable phase error; Δt_lock is delay tolerance bandwidth.
   • Comb indicators: piecewise drift/jumps of f_rep and Δf_ceo.
   • Noise statistics: F_amp = S_I/(2e|I|) and g2(0) capture sub-Poisson compression and second-order coherence.
2. Unified fitting axes (three-axis + path/measure declaration)
   • Observable axis: {S_n}, ΔS_step/H_step, φ_lock/Δt_lock, f_rep/Δf_ceo, F_amp/g2(0), P(|target−model|>ε).
   • Medium axis: Sea / Thread / Density / Tension / Tension Gradient (weights for field–cavity–cross-phase channels vs. resonator skeleton).
   • Path & measure: energy flux along gamma(ℓ) with measure dℓ; work/dissipation bookkeeping via ∫ J·F dℓ; SI units enforced.
3. Empirical phenomenology (cross-platform)
   • Under detuning δ and pump P scans, {S_n} form near-equispaced multistable plateaus.
   • Within the lock window, fine tuning of f_rep co-occurs with sub-jumps of Δf_ceo.
   • Noise spectra exhibit reproducible compression valleys near steps (F_amp<1) with g2(0)<1.

III. EFT Mechanisms (Sxx / Pxx)

1. Minimal equation set (plain text)
   • S01: S_n ≈ S_0 · RL(ξ; ξ_RL) · [1 + γ_Path·J_Path + k_SC·ψ_opt − k_TBN·σ_env] · Φ_cav(θ_Coh; ψ_cavity)
   • S02: ΔS_step ≈ a1·k_STG·G_env − a2·η_Damp + a3·zeta_topo
   • S03: φ_lock, Δt_lock ≈ 𝔽(ψ_cross, θ_Coh, ξ_RL)
   • S04: f_rep, Δf_ceo = 𝔾(β_TPR·δ, ψ_cavity, Recon(ψ_cavity, zeta_topo))
   • S05: F_amp, g2(0) = 𝓗(k_TBN·σ_env, θ_Coh, ψ_noise)
2. Mechanistic notes (Pxx)
   • P01 · Path/Sea coupling: γ_Path×J_Path elevates in-cavity exchange gain, enhancing step discernibility.
   • P02 · STG / TBN: STG sets rigidity of ΔS_step; TBN fixes jitter floor and compression limit.
   • P03 · CW / Damping / RL: bound φ_lock/Δt_lock and the maximal attainable H_step.
   • P04 · TPR / Topo / Recon: cavity-mode reconstruction co-scales f_rep/Δf_ceo.

VI. Summary Assessment

1. Strengths
   • Unified multiplicative structure (S01–S05) co-models {S_n}/ΔS_step/H_step, φ_lock/Δt_lock, and f_rep/Δf_ceo with interpretable parameters, guiding detuning–pump scan strategies and lock-window engineering.
   • Mechanism identifiability: strong posteriors for γ_Path/k_SC/k_STG/k_TBN/β_TPR/θ_Coh/η_Damp/ξ_RL and ψ_opt/ψ_cavity/ψ_cross/ψ_noise/ζ_topo separate field, cavity, and cross-phase contributions.
   • Engineering utility: monitoring G_env/σ_env/J_Path and cavity-mode reconstruction stabilizes steps, widens lock windows, and reduces threshold uncertainty.
2. Blind Spots
   • Under strong drive/high-Q, non-Markovian memory and nonlinear shot-noise may require fractional-order kernels and higher-order dispersion.
   • Thermo-elastic coupling can mix with Δf_ceo sub-jumps; time/frequency-domain demixing is advised.
3. Falsification line & experimental suggestions
   • Falsification: as specified in the metadata falsification_line.
   • Experiments:
     1. 2-D phase maps: scans over δ × P and δ × temperature for {S_n}, φ_lock, Δf_ceo to locate step–lock covariance zones.
     2. Mode engineering: tune coupling and dispersion, exploit defects/reconstruction (zeta_topo) to harden ΔS_step.
     3. Synchronized acquisition: time-traces + comb + noise spectra in parallel to verify synchronous compression in F_amp/g2(0).
     4. Noise control: vibration/thermal/EM measures to quantify TBN’s impact on ΔS_step/H_step.
