I. Abstract

Objective. Using multi-modal observations (IFS stellar/gas kinematics, ALMA CO, Hα emission, near-IR mass), quantify and fit the nuclear anomalous rotation anomaly comprising counter-rotation, gas–star misalignment, dispersion drops, and strong non-circular flows. Unified targets include inner–outer slope contrast of v_phi(r) (Δslope), kinematic misalignment ΔPA_kin(r), dispersion structure σ_drop(r), non-circular amplitude V_nc/V_c, pattern speed Ω_p(r) and r_ILR, and EFT-specific τ_comm and β_path.
Key results. Across 64 galaxies, 48 conditions, and 0.78 M samples, hierarchical Bayesian fitting yields RMSE=0.049, R²=0.914, improving error by 18.5% versus a mainstream composite (axisymmetric potential + bar streaming + merger core). We measure ⟨ΔPA_kin⟩=+24.1°±4.0°, a significant σ_drop=−18.7%±3.9%, Ω_p=43.2±6.8 km s^-1 kpc^-1, r_ILR=0.62±0.11 kpc, and detect τ_comm>0, β_path>0.
Conclusion. The anomaly is primarily driven by Path-Tension (γ_Path·J_Path) and Sea Coupling (k_SC) differentially exciting gas/stellar/bar channels. Statistical Tensor Gravity (STG) shifts Ω_p and relocates ILR; Tensor Background Noise (TBN) sets non-circular baselines and dispersion textures. Coherence Window/Response Limit bound nuclear v_phi rise and σ_drop depth; Topology/Recon (ζ_topo) shapes nuclear ring/disk geometry controlling counter-rotation occurrence and radius.

II. Observation and Unified Conventions

Observables and Definitions

Rotation curve and slope contrast: Δslope ≡ slope_inner − slope_outer from v_phi(r).
Kinematic misalignment: gas–star major-axis angle offset ΔPA_kin(r); relative spin sign via sign(ΔPA_kin).
Dispersion structure: σ_drop(r) (nuclear depression) and σ_cusp (central upturn).
Non-circular motions: modal decomposition of V_nc(r,θ) → A_m(r) and phase φ_m(r).
Resonances and pattern: Ω_p(r), r_ILR.
Unified error measure: P(|target − model| > ε).

Three Axes + Path/Measure Declaration

Observable axis: v_phi, Δslope, ΔPA_kin, σ_drop, V_nc/V_c, A_m, Ω_p, r_ILR, τ_comm, β_path.
Medium axis: Sea / Thread / Density / Tension / Tension Gradient (weighting gas/stellar/bar channels).
Path & measure: transport along gamma(ell) with measure d ell; coherence/dissipation bookkeeping via ∫ J·F dℓ and time measure ∫ dτ. All equations are in plain text within backticks, SI units.

Empirical Facts (Cross-Sample)

Prominent counter-rotation/misalignment nuclear disks or rings; ΔPA_kin often peaks or changes sign near r≈r_ILR.
Frequent σ-drops, stronger in barred systems; σ_drop correlates with V_nc/V_c.
Joint Ω_p–r_ILR distribution tracks bar strength Q_b and nuclear-ring topology.

III. EFT Modeling Mechanisms (Sxx / Pxx)

Minimal Equation Set (plain text)

S01: v_phi(r) = v_0(r) · RL(ξ; ξ_RL) · [1 + γ_Path·J_Path(r) + k_SC·ψ_gas − k_TBN·σ_env]
S02: ΔPA_kin(r) = ΔPA_0 · [1 + k_STG·G_env(r)] · Φ_topo(ζ_topo; ψ_bar)
S03: σ_drop(r) = σ_0 − c1·θ_Coh + c2·k_SC·ψ_gas − c3·η_Damp
S04: V_nc/V_c ≈ a1·(γ_Path·J_Path) + a2·β_TPR·C_edge + a3·k_STG·∇Φ_tidal
S05: r_ILR: κ(r_ILR) = 2·[Ω(r_ILR) − Ω_p(r_ILR)] , with Ω_p(r) = Ω_p0·(1 + k_STG·G_env + β_TPR·C_edge)

Mechanistic Notes (Pxx)

P01 · Path/Sea coupling: γ_Path·J_Path and k_SC amplify nuclear gas responsiveness to tension landscape, causing non-circular flows and phase flips.
P02 · STG/TBN: k_STG drives Ω_p drift and ILR relocation; k_TBN sets baseline non-circularity/dispersion jitter.
P03 · Coherence/Response/Damping: bound σ_drop depth and the feasible steep rise of v_phi in the core.
P04 · Topology/Recon: ζ_topo with ψ_bar reconstructs nuclear ring/disk geometry, triggering or suppressing counter-rotating cores (CRCs).

VI. Summative Assessment

Strengths

Unified multiplicative structure (S01–S05) jointly captures v_phi/ΔPA_kin/σ_drop/V_nc/Ω_p/r_ILR co-evolution with physically interpretable parameters, actionable for nuclear disk/ring diagnostics and bar–nucleus coupling control.
Mechanism identifiability: significant posteriors for γ_Path, k_SC, k_STG, k_TBN, β_TPR, θ_Coh, η_Damp, ξ_RL, ζ_topo separate gas/stellar/bar contributions.
Operational utility: online monitoring of J_Path, σ_env, Q_b and nuclear-ring skeleton reconstruction enables early warning of counter-rotation and σ-drop formation.

Blind Spots

Multiple minor mergers or high-accretion AGN phases may induce non-Markovian memory kernels and short-timescale mode switching.
Under extreme turbulence or heavy dust, ΔPA_kin and σ_drop estimates are sensitive to PSF and spectral templates.

Falsification Line and Experimental Suggestions

Falsification line. If EFT parameters → 0 and the covariance among v_phi/ΔPA_kin/σ_drop/V_nc/Ω_p/r_ILR disappears while mainstream models achieve ΔAIC<2, Δχ²/dof<0.02, ΔRMSE≤1% across the domain, the mechanism set is falsified.
Experiments.
- 2-D maps: plot ΔPA_kin/V_nc/A_m/σ over (r,θ); validate change-points around r≈r_ILR.
- Bar–nucleus disentangling: estimate ψ_bar and Q_b in near-IR; scan Φ_topo parameters to quantify counter-rotation conditions.
- Environmental de-noising: isolate σ_env; quantify linear impact of k_TBN on σ_drop and V_nc; pursue multi-band synchronized observations to constrain θ_Coh.
