Complex-first Wick substrate for causal 4-simplices: ten complex squared edge lengths, Cayley-Menger matrix/minors/cofactors over ℂ, a principal complex square root, and the split-form dihedral denominator. CDT and Lorentzian-sector workers cite it when continuing hinge data through the upper half-plane. The module is mostly definitions plus short complex identities; deep hinge theorems live downstream.

claimInfrastructure for a causal 4-simplex with complex squared edge lengths $s_e\in\mathbb{C}$ on the ten edges (lexicographic order), the Cayley-Menger matrix and cofactors over $\mathbb{C}$, a complex square root satisfying $(\sqrt{z})^2=z$ on the working branch, and the split-form denominator for dihedral (hinge) continuation along a canonical upper-half-plane arc.

background

In the QG Seven-Gaps Lorentzian lane, Phase 3a lifts kernel-checked 3D causal-simplex Wick machinery to $D=4$. Upstream CausalSimplex4D fixes CDT-style causal 4-simplex classes (notably the $(4,1)$ and $(3,2)$ types) and the real combinatorial edge indexing.

Wick continuation of triangular hinges needs squared lengths and Cayley-Menger volume/dihedral formulae promoted from $\mathbb{R}$ to $\mathbb{C}$, so a path in the upper half-plane can connect Lorentzian to Euclidean signature without premature branch cuts. This module supplies those objects: complex edge squares on $\mathrm{Fin},10$, complex Cayley-Menger data, and a complex square root with the self-square identity.

Convention is complex-first: identities are proved in $\mathbb{C}$, then specialized downstream at the physical point $a=1$, $\alpha=1$ on a fixed arc.

proof idea

Definition-and-identity module, not a deep theorem package. It mirrors CausalSimplex4D combinatorics in $\mathbb{C}$: complex squared edges, Cayley-Menger matrix/minors/cofactors with index bookkeeping, a complex square root with $(\sqrt{z})^2=z$, and the split-form dihedral denominator used later for branch regularity. Any proofs are short algebraic or Mathlib complex-analysis facts (cofactor signs, square-root multiplication, $\mathrm{Fin},10$ reindexing), not geometric existence or full hinge continuation.

why it matters in Recognition Science

Shared analytic substrate for lane B of the finishing charter. Downstream, the $(4,1)$ all-hinge module extends the one-hinge split-form branch regularity and boundary continuation certified against this data to all ten triangular hinges at the physical point on the canonical arc. The $(3,2)$ hinge module does the same for that causal type (plus product-form kill certificates). The completeness module conjoins both into one statement over both types and all twenty hinges.

Without complex-first edges and Cayley-Menger cofactors, those all-hinge Wick certificates have nothing to continue. The module sits after 4D causal-simplex classification in the Lorentzian gravity lane; it does not itself close the Seven-Gaps campaign.
