Thermodynamics of Locking v2.3: Boundary Result Scoped to Its Declared Normalization

FRC 100.005 v2.3 preserves the exact-free-energy Langevin boundary experiment and scopes its interpretation to the declared information-unit representation k*_{mu_nat}=1. The measured diagnostic sigma_566=sigma_ST+k*_{mu_nat} Delta ln C becomes negative on sufficiently slow unlocking. At T_down=192 the finite measurement is sigma_ST=0.0288 and Delta ln C=-0.132245, so negativity at that endpoint is established for bridge values above 0.218 in the same normalization; negativity for every fixed positive value is an asymptotic inference conditional on sigma_ST tending to zero. The experiment rejects the tested erasure floor in this model class and normalization. It does not establish a universal directional replacement for the canonical law dS + k* d ln C = 0 or determine another register's representation. The valid instrument, controls, negative result, and finite-time successor question are retained.

Accessible Phase-Space Geometry Predicts the Structure Functional in the Mixed Standard Map

FRC 100.002 v2.5 defined the structure functional Σ = S_vM(C) − S and deferred whether persistent mixed-regime Σ(∞) tracks measured phase-space geometry. Instrument A measures Σ(∞) from evolved ensembles over 12 seeds. Instrument B independently classifies the torus by finite-time Lyapunov exponent, flood-fills the accessible chaotic component from a wrapped seed region, and predicts Σ from the component's phase marginal with no fitted amplitude. Over K_c ≤ K ≤ 2.0, the prediction has 9.7% median relative error, versus 18.9% for a fitted island-area proxy. A 1000-realization fixed-area shuffle null gives zero exceedances and corrected empirical p = 1/1001 at K=K_c, 1.4, and 2.0; the real prediction lies 33.6–198.4 standard deviations above random placement. Thus spatial arrangement of the excluded regular region, not area alone, carries the predicted signal throughout the estimator-clean window. Grid, FTLE-time, and threshold convergence are reported. Below K_c the uniform-fill assumption fails by a factor of two; above K ≈ 2 histogram-bias corrections approach or exceed the signal.
