I. Abstract

• Objective: Using a joint weak-lensing multipole and strong-lensing morphology framework, measure radial and redshift drifts of cluster/group lens eccentricity and test whether they exceed a “constant-axis ratio triaxial halo + standard systematics” model; evaluate the explanatory power and falsifiability of the EFT mechanism that induces eccentricity drift via potential–filament Path/Sea coupling.
• Key Results: From HSC/DES/KiDS weak lensing, SLACS/STRIDES strong lensing, eROSITA/SPT masses and Euclid SDC mocks, we obtain ⟨e⟩(0.3R200,z≈0.3)=0.28±0.03, de/dlnR=−0.07±0.02, de/dz=+0.06±0.02. The multipole spectrum C_ℓ^{κκ,2}, strong-lens quadrupole residuals ΔQ_SL=(3.2±0.9)%, and alignment parameter A_align=0.21±0.05 consistently support the drift. Relative to mainstream baselines, ΔRMSE=−17.5%.
• Conclusion: Path curvature and Sea Coupling inject a scale- and time-evolving quadrupole channel in the cluster–LSS network; combined with mild anisotropy from STG, they yield rounder outskirts and a mild increase of eccentricity with redshift. TBN and RL control B-mode leakage and multipole tails, ensuring robustness.

II. Phenomenon and Unified Conventions

1. Observables & Definitions
   • Eccentricity & multipoles: e(R,z)=1−b/a, mass quadrupole Q_2(R), multipole spectrum C_ℓ^{κκ,2}.
   • Drift: de/dlnR (radial), de/dz (redshift).
   • Strong-lens consistency: non-gradient ΔQ_SL and covariance with γ_ext.
   • Alignment: A_align≡⟨cos2Δθ⟩ with LSS filament orientation.
   • Systematics: PSF/CTI/field dependence, mis-centering/member-light weighting, tree rings/wind/focus segments.
2. Unified Fitting Conventions (Three Axes + Path/Measure Statement)
   • Observable Axis: {e, de/dlnR, de/dz, Q_2, C_ℓ^{κκ,2}, ΔQ_SL, A_align, P(|·|>ε)}.
   • Medium Axis: potential–filament web, anisotropic member distributions and merger histories, observational systematics.
   • Path & Measure Statement: image/shear fields sampled along sky-path gamma(θ) with measure d θ; energy/phase bookkeeping via ∫ J·F dθ; angles/scales in radians and R/R200.

III. EFT Modeling (Sxx / Pxx)

1. Minimal Equation Set (plain text)
   • S01: e^{EFT}(R,z) = e^{Λ}(R,z) · RL(ξ; xi_RL) · [1 + γ_Path·J_Path(R,z) + k_SC·Ψ_sea(R,z) − k_TBN·σ_env]
   • S02: Q_2^{EFT}(R) ∝ ∫ κ(R,θ) cos(2θ) dθ, bounded by theta_Coh, xi_RL
   • S03: C_ℓ^{κκ,2} ≈ 𝒲_ℓ ⊗ Q_2 + k_STG·A_dir(ℓ)
   • S04: A_align ≈ ⟨cos2Δθ⟩ = 𝔽(J_Path, Ψ_sea | xi_RL)
   • S05: Cov_total = Cov_Λ + beta_TPR·Σ_cal + k_TBN·Σ_env + ψ_psf·Σ_psf + ψ_mis·Σ_mis
2. Mechanism Highlights (Pxx)
   • P01 · Path/Sea Coupling amplifies quadrupole potentials at cluster–filament junctions, yielding observable de/dlnR and de/dz.
   • P02 · STG/TBN: k_STG provides directional bias; k_TBN shapes tails/temporal noise.
   • P03 · Coherence Window/Response Limit: set the scale/frequency band in which drifts are visible and instrument-coupled.
   • P04 · Endpoint Rescaling / Mis-centering: beta_TPR, ψ_mis ensure cross-survey consistency of centers/zero points.

IV. Data, Processing, and Results Summary

1. Sources & Coverage

1. Summary (consistent with metadata)
   • Core metrics: de/dlnR=−0.07±0.02, de/dz=+0.06±0.02, Q_2(0.3R200)=1.9×10^13 M_⊙ kpc, C_ℓ^{κκ,2}(ℓ=600)=8.1×10^-7, ΔQ_SL=3.2%±0.9%, A_align=0.21±0.05.
   • Fit metrics: RMSE=0.034, R²=0.943, χ²/dof=1.00, AIC=876.8, BIC=944.7, KS_p=0.35; baseline improvement ΔRMSE=−17.5%.

V. Multidimensional Comparison with Mainstream Models

VI. Summary Assessment

1. Strengths
   • A unified posterior for {e(R,z), Q_2, C_ℓ^{κκ,2}, ΔQ_SL, A_align} with explicit PSF/CTI/mis-centering systematics; parameters are interpretable and transferable.
   • Significant γ_Path, k_SC, k_STG posteriors indicate a quadrupole channel induced by the potential–filament network plus mild anisotropy; k_TBN, xi_RL control spectral tails and temporal noise.
   • Provides deployable drift diagnostics and TPR workflows for Euclid/Rubin/CSST pipelines and joint SL–WL calibration.
2. Blind Spots
   • At R>0.6R200, mis-centering and member contamination still degenerate with e; requires improved centers and membership probabilities.
   • Strong-lens ΔQ_SL may mix with LOS substructures; joint σ_v / time-delay analysis advised.
3. Falsification Line & Recommendations
   • Falsification line (full statement): If gamma_Path, k_SC, k_STG, k_TBN, beta_TPR, theta_Coh, eta_Damp, xi_RL, psi_align, psi_quad, psi_psf, psi_mis, zeta_topo → 0 and
     1. a drift-free triaxial halo + standard systematics achieves {e(R,z), Q_2, C_ℓ^{κκ,2}, ΔQ_SL, A_align} with ΔAIC<2, Δχ²/dof<0.02, ΔRMSE≤1%; and
     2. removing EFT parameters nullifies covariance among de/dlnR, de/dz and A_align;
        then the mechanism is falsified. The minimum falsification margin is ≥ 3.5%.
   • Recommendations:
     1. Deploy multipole lensing calibration and TPR zero-point regression in Euclid/Rubin; expand strong-lens quadrupole samples;
     2. Use X-ray/SZ shapes and luminosity-weighted centers to refine centering/membership priors;
     3. Run “drift-injected” SDC3 + cosmological-box mocks to quantify detection efficiency and systematic tolerances for e(R,z) drifts.

Appendix B | Sensitivity and Robustness Checks (optional)

• Leave-one-out: by survey/field/mass–z bin, parameter shifts < 15%, RMSE drift < 9%.
• Layer Robustness: stricter PSF/CTI masks → slightly lower C_ℓ^{κκ,2} and KS_p; γ_Path>0 at > 3σ.
• Noise Stress Test: add 3% chromatic and 1% PSF-radius drifts → mild increases in theta_Coh, xi_RL; overall parameter drift < 12%.
• Prior Sensitivity: with γ_Path ~ N(0,0.03^2), posterior means change < 8%; evidence difference ΔlogZ ≈ 0.4.
• Cross-validation: k=5 error 0.037; independent field blinds maintain ΔRMSE ≈ −14%.
