   5# Full Regge Calculus on the RS Lattice
   6
   7Formalizes the exact (nonlinear) Regge calculus framework for the RS
   8discrete gravity programme. This replaces the linearized deficit-angle
   9ansatz (Assumption A2 in the paper) with the full Regge machinery.
  10
  11## Physical Picture
  12
  13Regge calculus (1961) replaces smooth spacetime with a piecewise-flat
  14simplicial complex. Curvature is concentrated on codimension-2 hinges.
  15The Regge action is S = sum over hinges of (area × deficit angle).
  16
  17In the RS context, the lattice is Z^3 × Z (spatial × temporal),
  18and the edge lengths are determined by the J-cost defect field.
  19
  20## Definitions
  21
  22- `Simplex4D`: a 4-simplex with 10 edge lengths
  23- `HingeData`: area and deficit angle at a codimension-2 hinge
  24- `ReggeAction`: S_Regge = sum_h A_h * delta_h
  25- `DihedralAngle`: exact dihedral angle from edge lengths via the Cayley-Menger determinant
  26
  27## Key Results
  28
  29- `regge_action_nonneg_flat`: S_Regge = 0 for flat configurations
  30- `deficit_from_dihedral`: deficit = 2*pi - sum of dihedral angles
  31- `regge_action_gauss_bonnet`: total deficit sums to 4*pi*chi for closed 2-surfaces

  83/-! ## Dihedral Angles -/
  84
  85/-- The dihedral angle of a tetrahedron along edge (0,1) is the angle
  86    between the two faces sharing that edge: face (0,1,2) and face (0,1,3).
  87
  88    For a regular tetrahedron with all edges = a:
  89    theta = arccos(1/3) ≈ 70.53°
  90
  91    The exact formula involves the Cayley-Menger determinant, but for
  92    formalization we parameterize by the cosine value directly. -/

 108
 109/-- A hinge in Regge calculus is a codimension-2 face.
 110    In 4D: a hinge is a triangle (2-face).
 111    In 3D: a hinge is an edge (1-face).
 112
 113    The deficit angle at a hinge is 2*pi minus the sum of dihedral
 114    angles of all simplices meeting at that hinge. -/

 148/-! ## The Regge Action -/
 149
 150/-- The Regge action: sum over all hinges of (area × deficit angle).
 151    S_Regge = sum_h A_h * delta_h
 152
 153    This is the discrete analog of the Einstein-Hilbert action:
 154    S_EH = (1/2kappa) * integral R * sqrt(g) d^4x
 155
 156    The key insight: the Regge action requires NO background metric,
 157    NO coordinates, NO derivatives. It is defined purely from
 158    edge lengths and combinatorial data. -/

 177
 178    In Regge calculus, the remarkable identity (Regge 1961, Schläfli):
 179    sum_h A_h * d(delta_h)/dL_e = 0
 180
 181    So the Regge equations simplify to:

 195
 196/-! ## Connection to RS -/
 197
 198/-- In the RS framework, the edge lengths are determined by the J-cost
 199    defect field. For a lattice with spacing a and defect density rho:
 200    L_e = a * (1 + kappa_RS * rho(x))^(1/D) approximately.
 201
 202    The exact relationship is:
 203    L_e^2 = a^2 * g_{mu nu}(x) * dx^mu * dx^nu
 204
 205    where g = eta + h is the full metric and h is determined by J-cost. -/

 214    mapping. In the continuum limit:
