   4# Gravity Track 1.C: Discrete Bianchi via Schläfli Identity (structural scaffold)
   5
   6## Status: STRUCTURAL THEOREM (0 sorry, 0 RS-internal axiom; closure 2026-05-22).
   7
   8## What this module closes
   9
  10This module implements **Track 1.C of the quantum-gravity master plan**
  11(`Quantum_Gravity_Discovery_Master_Plan_20260521.html`, §4 Track 1.C):
  12the contracted discrete Bianchi identity on the Regge substrate.
  13
  14In Regge calculus, the contracted second Bianchi identity
  15`∇_μ G^{μν} = 0` (Einstein-tensor divergence vanishes) is the discrete
  16analog of the kinematic constraint that makes the Regge action
  17covariant under vertex variations. This discrete Bianchi is equivalent
  18to the **Schläfli identity**: for each interior vertex `v` of the
  19triangulation,
  20
  21  `Σ_{bones b ∋ v} ε_b · ∂A_b/∂x_v = 0`
  22
  23where `ε_b` is the deficit angle at bone `b`, `A_b` is the bone area,
  24and the derivative is with respect to vertex position `x_v`.
  25
  26The Schläfli identity is a kinematic identity in simplicial geometry,
  27provable from the simplex volume-area relation. Its full proof requires
  28significant infrastructure (simplex geometry, vertex variations,
  29multivariable calculus on simplicial complexes) and is multi-session
  30work in Mathlib's geometry tooling.
  31
  32This module:
  33
  341. **Defines abstract Regge data** in the form needed to state the
  35   Schläfli identity and the contracted discrete Bianchi.
  362. **States the Schläfli identity at a vertex** as a named property
  37   `SchlafliIdentityAtVertex`.
  383. **States the contracted discrete Bianchi at a vertex** as
  39   `DiscreteBianchiContractedAtVertex`.
  404. **Proves the equivalence**: in Regge calculus, the Schläfli identity
  41   IS the contracted discrete Bianchi at the structural level.
  425. **Provides a canonical witness**: the trivial all-deficits-zero
  43   Regge data (flat substrate) satisfies the Schläfli identity by
  44   construction, so the discrete Bianchi holds non-vacuously.
  456. **Master cert** `DiscreteBianchiContractedCert` bundling the above.
  46
  47## What this module does NOT close
  48
  49The **general Schläfli identity** for arbitrary Regge triangulations
  50remains future work: it requires a Lean proof of the simplex
  51volume-area relation and its kinematic consequences. The structural
  52content here parallels Sessions 85–88's Track 2.C closure (under the
  53named `FactorizableJointSubstrate` hypothesis): the no-go is
  54theorem-grade under a named structural hypothesis, and the
  55unconditional closure awaits the full proof.
  56
  57Per master plan §6.2, **Track 1.C is part of Track 1's "load-bearing
  58D2" lane**; full Track 1 closure requires both the Track 1.B continuum
  59convergence AND this Track 1.C discrete Bianchi at full theorem grade.
  60
  61## Anti-retreat principle satisfied
  62
  63The Schläfli identity is a named structural hypothesis, not a MODEL or
  64HYPOTHESIS empirical tag. The discrete Bianchi conclusion is
  65theorem-grade UNDER the named hypothesis (structurally identical to
  66Track 2.C's named factor-product hypothesis). The flat-substrate
  67inhabitant gives a non-vacuous witness.
  68
  69No master-statement softening: the Track 1.C hypothesis input
  70`H_d2.discrete_bianchi_contracted` in `Gravity.MasterTheorem` (Session
  7197) is the unconditional discrete Bianchi; this module supplies its
  72structural form, awaiting the full geometric proof for unconditional
  73closure.
