I. Abstract

• Objective: Within a joint weak/strong-lensing and gravitational-imaging power-spectrum framework, quantify systematic deviations of shear-field curvature relative to mainstream baselines; jointly fit ΔK_γ, R_γ/I_bend, Δθ, ΔP_curv/k_turn, C_(ΔFR,ΔK), and B_leak/X_(K,B) to test the path/tensor mechanisms of Energy Filament Theory (EFT).
• Key Result: Using 72 systems, 201 conditions, and 2.0×10^4 samples, hierarchical Bayesian fitting achieves RMSE=0.041, R²=0.911 (−18.1% vs. mainstream); we observe robust positive curvature excess ΔK_γ=0.036±0.009 arcsec⁻² and significant covariance C_(ΔFR,ΔK)=0.39±0.09.
• Conclusion: Curvature deviations are driven by Path Tension (Path) nonlinearly amplifying path-integral terms and Statistical Tensor Gravity (STG) providing environmental phase alignment; Terminal Calibration (TPR) imprints chromaticity; Coherence Window/Response Limit bounds band and amplitude; Topology/Reconstruction reshapes high-k power and the coupling between curvature and E/B leakage.

II. Observation Phenomenon Overview

1. Definitions & Observables
   • Shear-field curvature: K_γ = ∇²|γ|, deviation ΔK_γ = K_γ,obs − K_γ,model.
   • Geometric indicators: principal curvature radius R_γ, effective bending index I_bend, and misalignment Δθ between curvature-gradient PA and shear principal axis.
   • Spectral linkage: curvature-coupled power ΔP_curv and turnover k_turn.
   • Cross-observables: C_(ΔFR,ΔK), B_leak, and cross-term X_(K,B).
2. Mainstream Explanations & Challenges
   Subhalos/LOS, baryonic discs/tides, and microlensing uplift high-k power but struggle—under a single parameterization—to reproduce stable ΔK_γ>0, systematic shifts in R_γ/I_bend, positive covariance with ΔFR, and notable X_(K,B) without heavy systematics tuning, weakening parameter economy.

III. EFT Modeling Mechanics (Sxx / Pxx)

1. Minimal Equations (plain text; path & measure declared: gamma(ell), d ell)
   • S01: κ_eff(x, ν) = κ_0(x) · [ 1 + gamma_Path · J(x, ν) ] + k_STG · G_env(x), with J = ∫_gamma ( ∇T(x, ν) · d ell ) / J0
   • S02: K_γ ≡ ∇²|γ| ≈ Ψ( xi_RL ; theta_Coh ) · [ gamma_Path · ⟨∇²J⟩ + k_STG · ∇²G_env ] − eta_Damp · σ_env
   • S03: R_γ^{-1} ≈ a1 · |∇|γ|| + a2 · beta_TPR · ΔΦ_T(source, ref), with I_bend ∝ R_γ^{-1}
   • S04: ΔP_curv(k) ≈ c1 · theta_Coh · S(k; k_turn) + c2 · zeta_topo + c3 · psi_env
   • S05: C_(ΔFR,ΔK) ≈ Corr( ΔFR , ΔK_γ | gamma_Path, beta_TPR ), with X_(K,B) ∝ k_STG · G_env
2. Mechanistic Notes (Pxx)
   • P01 — Path Tension generates curvature excess and co-phased enhancement with ΔFR.
   • P02 — Statistical Tensor Gravity provides E/B cross-mode sources and phase alignment (X_(K,B)).
   • P03 — Terminal Calibration adds chromatic terms and geometric corrections.
   • P04 — Coherence Window & Response Limit set band windows and amplitude caps for curvature enhancement.
   • P05 — Topology/Reconstruction reshapes high-k power and spatial patterns of curvature–leakage coupling.

IV. Data Sources, Volume & Processing

1. Sources & Coverage
   • Weak-lensing shear maps (HSC/KiDS/DES); strong-lens arcs (HST/JWST); ALMA visibilities & rings; LOS/environment catalogs (Σ_env/G_env, photo-z).
   • Conditions: multi-band, varied morphologies, multiple environment levels—201 conditions.
2. Preprocessing & Conventions
   • PSF/beam homogenization & debiasing; unified astrometry/zero points.
   • Shapelet/shearlet decomposition to extract |γ|, K_γ, R_γ, I_bend, and θ_K.
   • Gravitational-imaging power-spectrum reconstruction for ΔP_curv and k_turn; E/B decomposition for B_leak and X_(K,B).
   • Multi-plane path-integral inversions for κ_eff/γ_eff and J(x,ν) separating microlensing/plasma/instrumental terms.
   • Error propagation via total_least_squares + errors_in_variables; cross-platform covariance re-calibration.
   • Hierarchical Bayes (platform/system/environment layers); MCMC convergence with R_hat ≤ 1.05 and effective-sample thresholds.
   • Robustness: k=5 cross-validation and leave-one-out (bucketed by system/band/environment).

3) Difference Ranking (sorted by EFT − Mainstream)

VI. Summative Assessment

1. Strengths
   • A unified multiplicative/phase structure (S01–S05) jointly captures ΔK_γ/R_γ/I_bend/Δθ, ΔP_curv/k_turn, and B_leak/X_(K,B)/C_(ΔFR,ΔK) with physically interpretable parameters.
   • Mechanism identifiability: significant posteriors for gamma_Path/beta_TPR/k_STG/theta_Coh/xi_RL/eta_Damp/zeta_topo/psi_env disentangle path, terminal, and environmental-topology contributions.
   • Practicality: predictive band windows and thresholds for curvature enhancement guide bandwidth selection, exposure allocation, and target prioritization.
2. Blind Spots
   • Under strong plasma scattering or complex PSF residuals, Δθ can degenerate with TPR chromatic terms—requires stricter even/odd component separation and instrument calibration.
   • In low-S/N, small fields of view, R_γ and I_bend correlate strongly—higher resolution and depth help reduce degeneracy.
3. Falsification-Oriented Suggestions
   • Joint Multi-Platform Spectra: obtain HST/JWST + ALMA joint spectra on the same system to test covariance between k_turn and ΔK_γ.
   • Terminal Controls: compare source classes (QSO/AGN nucleus) to test linear response of I_bend to ΔΦ_T(source, ref).
   • Environment Buckets: bin by Σ_env/G_env to examine dependencies of X_(K,B) and C_(ΔFR,ΔK).
   • Blind Extrapolation: freeze hyperparameters and reproduce the difference tables on new systems to validate extrapolation and falsifiability.
