   5# Period Depends on Dimension (Addressing Beltracchi §4)
   6
   7This module answers Philip Beltracchi's concern in §4 of
   8`outstandingissues.tex`: the label "8-tick" presupposes `D = 3`, so
   9ordering T7 before T8 appears circular.
  10
  11## What the existing chain actually proves
  12
  13`DimensionForcing.linking_requires_D3` proves `D = 3` from Alexander
  14duality, with *zero reference* to the number 8 or to the 8-tick
  15structure. The linking predicate `SphereAdmitsCircleLinking` is
  16a topological statement: it says that the reduced cohomology group
  17`H̃^{D-2}(S¹; ℤ)` is nontrivial. That is independent of `EightTickFromDimension`.
  18
  19So the honest forcing order is:
  20
  21  T5 (J unique) → T6 (φ forced) → **T8 (D = 3 from linking)** →
  22     T7 (period = 2^D = 8 follows).
  23
  24The label "8-tick" in the historical T7 is a **consequence** of T8,
  25not a premise.
  26
  27## What this module adds
  28
  291. A named predicate `PeriodFromDimension D := 2^D`, making explicit
  30   that the period is a function of the dimension and does not know
  31   about the number 8 a priori.
  32
  332. A bidirectional theorem `period_eq_eight_iff_D_eq_three` showing
  34   `PeriodFromDimension D = 8 ↔ D = 3`. Either direction can be the
  35   "hypothesis" and the other the "conclusion"; they are equivalent.
  36
  373. A `FinalPeriod` record packaging the claim that the period *is*
  38   8 *because* `D = 3` (the honest direction), with the D = 3 step
  39   sourced from Alexander duality, not from the 8-tick itself.
  40
  414. A diagnostic theorem `no_period_circularity` whose statement and
  42   proof exhibit the non-circularity explicitly: D is determined by
  43   `linking_requires_D3` without ever mentioning `eight_tick`, and
  44   the period is then *defined* as `2^D`.

 115
 116/-- **DIAGNOSTIC THEOREM.** The linking argument for `D = 3` does not
 117    presuppose the 8-tick period.
 118
 119    Statement: every `D` with non-trivial linking equals 3, and this
 120    is proved *without* the predicate `EightTickFromDimension D =
 121    eight_tick` as a hypothesis.
 122
 123    Proof: `linking_requires_D3` is proved from Alexander duality in
 124    `Foundation/AlexanderDuality`. Its hypothesis is `SupportsNontrivialLinking`,
 125    which is defined as `SphereAdmitsCircleLinking`, which is defined via the
 126    reduced cohomology of `S¹`. None of those refer to the 8-tick.
 127
 128    Hence D = 3 is pinned first; the period 8 then follows as `2^D = 2^3`. -/

 133
 134/-- **BIDIRECTIONAL CONFIRMATION.** Together with `linking_requires_D3`,
 135    we now have two *independent* proofs that `D = 3` is the unique
 136    RS-compatible dimension:
 137
 138    - **Topological (primary):** Alexander duality → `D = 3`.
 139    - **Arithmetic (secondary):** `2^D = 8` → `D = 3`.
 140
 141    Neither presupposes the other. The fact that both routes arrive
 142    at the same dimension is a *consistency check*, not a circularity. -/
 143theorem two_independent_forcings :

 147
 148/-! ## §5. Relabelling: T7 is a consequence of T8 -/
 149
 150/-- The `T7` clause of the forcing chain, rephrased as a *theorem*
 151    depending on T8 rather than a separate premise. -/
 152theorem T7_from_T8 (D : ℕ) (hD : D = 3) :
 153    PeriodFromDimension D = 8 := by
 154  subst hD; rfl
 155
 156/-- Conversely, if one starts from T7 (`period = 8`), one recovers
 157    D = 3, so T7 is a minimal-information restatement of T8. -/
 158theorem T8_from_T7 (D : ℕ) (hP : PeriodFromDimension D = 8) :

 164    equivalent at the point `D = 3`, and the honest forcing direction
 165    is T8 → T7 (Alexander duality → dimension → period).
 166
 167    This is the Lean-level answer to the §4 concern in
 168    `outstandingissues.tex`: there is no ordering problem once one
 169    names the period `2^D` instead of `8`. -/
