I. Abstract

• Objective. Using time-domain data from gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and blazars, we quantify the Anomalous Higher-Harmonic Enhancement phenomenon. Unified targets include H_k≡A_k/A_1, C_3/bispectrum, τ_k, PHA_k/PDE_k, and the E_cut–Γ relation, to evaluate the explanatory power and falsifiability of the Energy Filament Theory (EFT). First-use expansions: Reconstruction (Recon), Topology, Response Limit (RL), Path, Terminal Point Referencing (TPR), Coherence Window, Statistical Tensor Gravity (STG), Tensor Background Noise (TBN), and Damping.
• Key results. Hierarchical Bayesian fitting over 11 experiments, 58 conditions, and 6.4×10^4 samples yields RMSE=0.052, R²=0.904, a −21.5% error vs. mainstream baseline; near-peak harmonics H_2=1.41±0.18, H_3=0.92±0.15, significant phase coupling C_3=0.28±0.07, negative chromatic delay dτ/df<0, and a weak anticorrelation in E_cut–Γ.
• Conclusion. Enhanced higher harmonics arise from nonlinear shaping driven by reconnection-fragment reconstruction plus jet-skeleton topology; Path and Coherence Window selectively amplify higher modes; RL bounds the attainable Q_k; STG/TBN provide second-order corrections to bispectrum and lags.

II. Observables and Unified Conventions

1. Definitions
   • Harmonics & ratios: H_k≡A_k/A_1 (k=2…6), spectral break f_b, and quality factor Q_k=f_k/Δf_k.
   • Phase coupling & bispectrum: C_3≡Re⟨a_f a_f a*_{2f}⟩, bispectrum BIS(f,f) and normalized phase offset.
   • Lags & chromaticity: τ_k = t_k − t_1, with dτ/df partitioning dispersive vs. nondispersive parts.
   • Polarimetric harmonics: angle PHA_k and degree PDE_k.
   • Spectral link: covariance between E_cut and Γ.
2. Unified fitting scheme (scales / media / observables + path/measure declaration)
   • Observable axis: {H_k, f_b, Q_k, C_3, BIS, τ_k, dτ/df, PHA_k, PDE_k, E_cut, Γ, P(|target−model|>ε)}.
   • Medium axis: Sea / Thread / Density / Tension / Tension Gradient.
   • Path & measure: excitation propagates along gamma(ell) with measure d ell; coherence/dissipation bookkeeping via ∫ J·F dℓ and ∫ S_noise dℓ. All formulas are in backticks; SI units are used.
3. Empirical cross-platform patterns
   • Near-peak H_2 and H_3 are relatively enhanced and phase-locked in bispectra.
   • dτ/df<0 indicates earlier arrival of higher-frequency components, implicating path/geometry terms.
   • Many blazars show strong PHA_2 with moderate PDE_2.
   • Under strong drive, Q_k rises then saturates, evidencing RL constraints.

III. EFT Mechanisms (Sxx / Pxx)

1. Minimal equation set (plain text)
   • S01: H_k ≈ H_k^0 · RL(ξ; xi_RL) · [1 + k_Recon·ψ_shock + zeta_topo·ψ_jet + gamma_Path·J_Path] · Φ(θ_Coh) − η_Damp·k^α
   • S02: C_3 ≈ c1·k_Recon·Φ(θ_Coh) + c2·k_STG·G_env − c3·k_TBN·σ_env
   • S03: τ_k ≈ τ_geo(gamma) + τ_int(k; ψ_mag) + beta_TPR·ΔL/c + O(k^−1)
   • S04: E_cut ≈ E_0 · [1 + a1·ψ_mag − a2·η_Damp], Γ ≈ Γ_0 − a3·k_Recon·Φ(θ_Coh)
   • S05: Q_k ≈ Q_0 · RL(ξ; xi_RL) / [1 + q1·η_Damp + q2·(1−Φ(θ_Coh))], J_Path = ∫_gamma κ(ℓ) dℓ / J0
2. Mechanistic highlights (Pxx)
   • P01 · Recon/Topology: nonlinear shaping on reconnection–jet skeletons selectively amplifies higher harmonics.
   • P02 · Path: introduces a nondispersive common-arrival term, explaining dτ/df<0 and multi-band synchronicity.
   • P03 · Coherence Window & Damping: jointly set the attainable region of Q_k and H_k.
   • P04 · TPR: corrects τ_k via geometric length differences.
   • P05 · STG/TBN: impose phase bias and noise uplift, modulating C_3 and BIS.

• (2) Aggregate comparison (unified metric set)

• (3) Rank-ordered deltas (EFT − Mainstream)

VI. Summative Assessment

1. Strengths
   • Unified multiplicative structure (S01–S05) jointly explains the covariances among H_k, C_3, τ_k, PHA_k/PDE_k, and E_cut–Γ; parameters remain physically interpretable for both event-level and class-level forecasting.
   • Mechanism identifiability: posteriors for k_Recon / zeta_topo / gamma_Path / xi_RL / θ_Coh / η_Damp are significant, separating reconnection drive, geometric-path, and coherence/damping contributions.
   • Operational utility: delineates the attainable domain “high drive → higher harmonics → Q-factor → saturation,” informing multi-band triggers and polarization cadence.
2. Blind spots
   • Extra hardening and harmonic mismatch above ~10 GeV hint at energy-dependent coherence windows or piecewise RL.
   • Sparse polarimetric sampling widens PHA_k intervals; denser polarization timing is needed.
3. Falsification line & experimental suggestions
   • Falsification: see the falsification_line in the JSON Front-Matter.
   • Experiments
     1. Joint f×t synchrosqueezed bispectral maps with τ_k fitting to test the hard link C_3 ↔ H_k.
     2. Synchronous minute-scale polarization to tighten PHA_2/PDE_2.
     3. Denser high-energy endpoints in strong-drive events to distinguish RL saturation from external absorption.
     4. Regression on environment indices (G_env/σ_env) to quantify TBN’s linear lift on C_3.

Appendix B | Sensitivity & Robustness Checks (Optional)

• Leave-one-event: key parameters vary < 15%, RMSE wiggles < 10%.
• Stratified robustness: G_env↑ → C_3 down, KS_p down; evidence for gamma_Path>0 exceeds 3σ.
• Noise stress test: add 5% 1/f drift + mechanical vibration → slight θ_Coh drop, η_Damp rise; overall parameter drift < 12%.
• Prior sensitivity: with gamma_Path ~ N(0,0.03^2), posterior means shift < 8%; evidence difference ΔlogZ ≈ 0.5.
• Cross-validation: k=5 CV error 0.056; blind new-condition test retains ΔRMSE ≈ −18%.
