realCharacterFactorizationHypotheses_of_structural
plain-language theorem explainer
Structural anchor-free native-cost hypotheses on a map F of ratio orbits already imply the lighter SansAnchor pack that real-character factorization consumes. Anyone feeding a PRC structural ledger into factorization or gauge-orbit classification cites this bridge. The proof is a field-by-field projection: each SansAnchor field is read off the structural pack.
Claim. Let $F$ be a map on ratio orbits. If $F$ satisfies the structural anchor-free native-cost hypotheses (base without the two-point, sign-reversing, monotone, zero-calibrated doubled trace), then $F$ satisfies the lighter SansAnchor hypothesis pack used by real-character factorization: base-sans-two, sign-reversing, monotone, and zero-calibrated doubled trace.
background
In the cost layer, native costs act on ratio orbits (equivalence classes of positive rational ratios from the primitive recognition calculus). The structural ledger PRCStructuralNativeCostHypothesesSansAnchor packages the full anchor-free native-cost axioms: a base without the distinguished two-point (reciprocal automorphism, normalized invariance, canonical Recognition Composition Law, unit zero), plus sign-reversal, monotonicity, and zero-calibration of the doubled trace.
SansAnchorHypotheses is the deliberately lighter pack that RealCharacterFactorization takes as input. Its doc states it is the "anchor-free pack matching" the structural ledger. The base-sans-two component reuses reciprocal and RCL structure from the cost algebra; sign-reversing and monotone are the usual comparison axioms; zero-calibrated means the doubled native-cost trace vanishes at the unit.
This module sits between the structural PRC ledger and the real-character factorization theorems that classify gauge orbits of costs.
proof idea
Pure structure construction, no arithmetic. Build SansAnchorHypotheses F by projecting each field from the structural hypothesis hF:
base_sans_twois assembled fromhF.base_sans_twoby copyingreciprocal,normalized_invariant,canonical_rcl, andunit_zero.sign_reversingishF.sign_reversingapplied pointwise.monotoneis discharged by intro on the order hypotheses and callinghF.monotone.zero_calibratedis exactlyhF.zero_calibrated.
No lemmas beyond field access; the two packs are definitionally aligned on these components.
why it matters
This is the import bridge that lets every structural anchor-free cost inherit the real factorization proved in RealCharacterFactorization. Downstream, structural_sansAnchor_realCharacterFactorization quotes it to obtain a real ratio character $\chi$ with the native cost recovered from $\chi$; its doc says "Every structural anchor-free cost has the real factorization proved in RealCharacterFactorization."
Further downstream, GaugeOrbitIsSignedPowerFamily_of_sixExponentials applies it as the first step (have hS := realCharacterFactorizationHypotheses_of_structural hG) before case-splitting on the rational trace at 2, yielding the anchor-free gauge classification: every such cost is the sign cost or a sign-extended power cost of a nonnegative integer exponent (under the six-exponentials input). That classification is the cost-side input to selecting $J$ by leastness elsewhere; it does not itself force $J$ or odd exponents.
In the forcing chain this sits under cost uniqueness and the RCL, not under T5–T8 directly, but it is how structural ledgers enter the gauge-orbit story.
