Kill Switches

Kill switch numbers are globally unique across the body of work. Three switches engage on this paper.

KS-58 — Surplus form

Claim. The baryon asymmetry has the energy-partition form η = E(ε) / (g_eff · (1 + E(ε))), with g_eff a calculable thermodynamic factor at the annihilation epoch (Proposition 1; the bare form η = E(ε) / (1 + E(ε)) is the g_eff = 1 case).

Test. Show the baryon asymmetry has a structural form incompatible with this energy partition.

Status. LIVE — EMPIRICAL. Structurally secure.

Recovery. Proposition 1 fails; the energy-partition reading of the axiom is wrong and the surplus must be rebuilt from a different partition.

KS-59 — Topological protection

Claim. The surplus E(ε) is topologically protected against annihilation because ε has no σ-image (Proposition 2, via AP22).

Test. Observe baryon-number violation — in particular proton decay — at a rate sufficient to erase the asymmetry within the age of the universe.

Status. LIVE — EMPIRICAL. Proton decay has not been observed; current experimental bounds are consistent with the protection claim.

Recovery. Proposition 2 fails; the surplus is not protected and the structural account of its survival collapses.

KS-60 — Derived-value mismatch

Claim. When E(ε) is derived from the self-consistency conditions (AP24), it yields the observed η ≈ 6 × 10⁻¹⁰ — including whatever the energy-to-number coefficient g_eff is found to be.

Test. Derive E(ε) from the self-consistency conditions and show it disagrees with the observed η; or show the asymmetry depends on a parameter independent of the fundamental constants.

Status. LIVE — DEBT. The sharpest blade in the 420 Code: not merely a test of this paper but of AP24’s central claim that all constants are projections of one break.

Recovery. The axiom’s energy partition is wrong, or AP24’s fixed-point structure is wrong; the value owed under this debt cannot be discharged and the constant-unification programme is wounded.
