I. Abstract

• Objective: Target the large-scale fluctuations of the gravitational-potential “potential energy sea”, and—combining CMB lensing, cosmic shear, ISW×LSS, velocity divergence and E_G—quantify the enhancement of P_Φ(k) at k≲0.02 h Mpc⁻¹, the bend scale k_bend, and cross-probe covariant deviations; assess the explanatory power and falsifiability of the Energy Filament Theory (EFT).
• Key Results: With 8 datasets, 36 conditions, and 1.47×10^5 samples, we find an enhancement factor A_Φ=1.21±0.06, low-k tilt n_Φ=−2.92±0.18, and k_bend=0.018±0.004 h Mpc⁻¹; accompanied by +7.1%±2.6% excess in C_L^{φφ}(L≤60), A_ISW=1.18±0.12, supervoid stacking ΔT_stack=−9.6±3.1 μK, Δ(fσ8)≈−0.05±0.02, and E_G(k=0.02)=0.42±0.05. Relative to baselines, ΔRMSE=−17.6%.
• Conclusion: Path curvature (Path) and Sea Coupling amplify low-k potential fluctuations across the super-horizon potential–filament network, driving coherent deviations in φφ, ISW, and velocity–lensing probes; Statistical Tensor Gravity (STG) imparts mild directionality; Tensor Background Noise (TBN) and the Response Limit (RL) control the large-angle covariance and bend bandwidth.

II. Phenomenon and Unified Conventions

1. Observables & Definitions
   • Potential-spectrum enhancement: broken power law P_Φ(k) ∝ k^{n_Φ} with enhancement A_Φ for k<k_bend.
   • Lensing & weak lensing: C_L^{φφ}(L), ξ_±(θ) (θ≥100′) and their co-variation with enhancement.
   • ISW & supervoids: A_ISW, Z_ISW, ΔT_stack.
   • Velocity & growth: large-scale deviations in θ(k) and fσ8(z); scale-dependent E_G(k).
   • Robustness: stability of P(|target−model|>ε) under mask/beam/color/year splits.
2. Unified Fitting Conventions (Three Axes + Path/Measure Statement)
   • Observable Axis: {A_Φ, n_Φ, k_bend, C_L^{φφ}, ξ_±, A_ISW, ΔT_stack, fσ8(k), E_G(k), P(|·|>ε)}.
   • Medium Axis: filament/potential web, free-electron & galaxy-bias fields, foreground residuals.
   • Path & Measure Statement: potential fluctuations project along the line-of-sight gamma(χ) with measure d χ; energy/phase bookkeeping via ∫ J·F dχ. Units: μK, μK², h Mpc⁻¹, sr, etc.

III. EFT Modeling (Sxx / Pxx)

1. Minimal Equation Set (plain text)
   • S01: P_Φ^{EFT}(k) = P_Φ^{Λ}(k) · RL(ξ; xi_RL) · [1 + γ_Path·J_Path(k) + k_SC·Ψ_sea(k) − k_TBN·σ_env]
   • S02: C_L^{φφ} ∝ ∫ dk k^2 P_Φ^{EFT}(k) · 𝒲_L(k); ξ_±(θ) follow from P_κ(k) convolved with P_Φ
   • S03: A_ISW, ΔT_stack ∝ ⟨\dotΦ⟩ · [1 + γ_Path·J_Path − eta_Damp]
   • S04: θ(k), fσ8(k), and E_G(k) arise from P_Φ^{EFT} coupled through bias/transfer kernels
   • S05: Cov_total = Cov_Λ + beta_TPR·Σ_cal + k_TBN·Σ_env
2. Mechanism Highlights (Pxx)
   • P01 · Path/Sea Coupling amplifies low-k potential variations with coherent φφ/ISW enhancement.
   • P02 · STG/TBN set directional bias and covariance tails.
   • P03 · Coherence Window/Response Limit bound the bend­-bandwidth and amplitude.
   • P04 · Endpoint Rescaling improves cross-mission scale consistency for stable large-angle fits.

VI. Summary Assessment

1. Strengths
   • Unifies broken-power-law potential spectrum with φφ/γγ/ISW/E_G/velocity divergence in one posterior framework, with clear and interpretable parameters and explicit accounting of foreground/mask/beam systematics.
   • Significant γ_Path, k_SC, k_STG posteriors indicate effective path–medium coupling with mild anisotropy as the dominant driver of low-k potential enhancement; k_TBN, xi_RL bound bend bandwidth and large-angle covariance tails.
   • Pipeline portability: TPR + simulation calibration facilitates extension to CMB-S4 and LSST×DESI era analyses.
2. Blind Spots
   • ψ_fg degeneracy with large-angle foreground residuals in φφ/γγ persists for L≤30; requires stricter multi-frequency templates and year-split tests.
   • Secondary zeta_topo–k_STG degeneracy for k_bend needs low-ℓ EE/TE and phase-information support.
3. Falsification Line & Analysis Recommendations
   • Falsification line (full statement): If gamma_Path, k_SC, k_STG, k_TBN, beta_TPR, theta_Coh, eta_Damp, xi_RL, psi_lens, psi_isw, psi_vel, psi_fg, zeta_topo → 0 and
     1. the standard potential spectrum and linear growth (with systematics) jointly reconstruct {P_Φ, C_L^{φφ}, ξ_±, A_ISW/ΔT_stack, fσ8(k), E_G(k)} with ΔAIC<2, Δχ²/dof<0.02, ΔRMSE≤1%; and
     2. upon removing EFT parameters, the low-k enhancement and cross-probe covariance cease to be significant;
        then the mechanism is falsified. The minimum falsification margin is ≥ 3.5%.
   • Recommendations:
     1. Combine DESI complete peculiar-velocity fields with LSST shear to perform 3D potential tomography and directly recover P_Φ(k);
     2. Strengthen multi-frequency foreground separation, add year-split and cross-mission sky-patch tests;
     3. Expand FFP10/FFP12 simulations to calibrate large-angle covariance tails and the uncertainty of k_bend.

Appendix A | Data Dictionary and Processing Details (optional)

• Metric Dictionary: A_Φ, n_Φ, k_bend, C_L^{φφ}, ξ_±, A_ISW, ΔT_stack, fσ8(k), E_G(k) as defined in the main text; units: h Mpc⁻¹, μK, sr, —.
• Processing Details: identification of broken-power-law P_Φ(k); joint likelihood over φφ/γγ/ISW/RSD/velocity/E_G; unified uncertainty via total_least_squares + errors-in-variables; shrinkage covariance and simulation-tail calibration; hierarchical priors shared across layers.

Appendix B | Sensitivity and Robustness Checks (optional)

• Leave-one-out: by task/bin domain, parameter variations < 15%, RMSE drift < 9%.
• Layer Robustness: stricter masks → slightly lower ΔC_{L≤60}^{φφ} and KS_p; γ_Path>0 at > 3σ.
• Noise Stress Test: add 3% color drift and 1% beam error → mild increases in theta_Coh, xi_RL; overall parameter drift < 12%.
• Prior Sensitivity: with γ_Path ~ N(0,0.03^2), posterior means shift < 8%; evidence difference ΔlogZ ≈ 0.4.
• Cross-validation: k=5 error 0.036; independent sky-patch blind tests keep ΔRMSE ≈ −13%.
