TriadicFrameworks — Repos Module Index

Directory: docs/theories/repos/ Role: Front door for the curated external-repository modules that ground TriadicFrameworks' quantum-lattice theory layer.

This directory catalogues three upstream open-source repositories, each captured as a structured module JSON. Together they form a full-stack quantum-lattice toolchain — from raw Hilbert-space basis construction, through phenomenological tight-binding simulation, to variational quantum algorithms on real or emulated quantum hardware.

Module Descriptions#

1 · wztzjhn_quantum_basis_module.json#

Upstream: wztzjhn/quantum_basis · Paradigm: Classical exact diagonalization (ED)

quantum_basis is a C++ library that constructs the many-body Hilbert-space basis for arbitrary condensed-matter lattice models. It supports any combination of bosonic and fermionic degrees of freedom; the user supplies matrix representations of elementary operators to specify the Hamiltonian.

Core capabilities:

• Basis construction with and without translational symmetry (generalised Lin Table)
• Lanczos and FEAST eigensolvers for low-energy spectra
• Kernel polynomial method (KPM) for spectral functions and DOS
• Sparse matrix algebra backed by Intel MKL / ARPACK-NG / Boost
• Doxygen API at https://wztzjhn.github.io/quantum_basis/
• Bundled example models: Heisenberg (spin-½, spin-1), t-J, Kondo Lattice, spinless fermions on square, honeycomb, and Kagome lattices

TriadicFrameworks role: Foundation layer. Provides rigorous, fully quantum-mechanical ground truth against which higher-level approximations (tight-binding mean-field, VQA) can be benchmarked.

2 · joselado_quantum-lattice_module.json#

Upstream: joselado/quantum-lattice · Paradigm: Classical tight-binding / mean-field

quantum-lattice is a Python (+ Fortran kernel) toolkit for designing and solving single-particle and mean-field Hamiltonians on arbitrary lattice geometries. It ships a graphical user interface for real-time exploration alongside a programmatic API.

Core capabilities:

• Spinless, spinful, and Nambu (Bogoliubov–de Gennes) orbital bases
• Full non-collinear magnetism, spin-orbit coupling, and unconventional superconductivity
• Band structures with state-resolved expectation values; momentum-resolved spectral functions
• Topological invariants: Chern numbers, Z₂, topological edge states
• Local density of states, Green's functions, recursive methods for semi-infinite systems
• Landau levels, quantum Hall edge states, twisted bilayer graphene superlattices
• Interactive PyQt GUI for parameter sweeping and real-time visualisation

TriadicFrameworks role: Simulation layer. Acts as the primary Hamiltonian factory — phenomenological models constructed here feed directly into both the ED solver (quantum_basis) and the VQA optimizer (LattiQ).

3 · Milos9304_LattiQ_module.json#

Upstream: Milos9304/LattiQ · Paradigm: Quantum — variational quantum algorithms

LattiQ is a C++ experimental framework (built atop FastVQA) for solving lattice optimisation problems on quantum hardware or simulators. Its primary target is the Shortest Vector Problem (SVP) — a cornerstone of post-quantum cryptography — encoded as an Ising spin Hamiltonian and solved via VQE or QAOA.

Core capabilities:

• Automatic encoding of SVP lattice matrices to Ising spin Hamiltonians
• VQE and QAOA as interchangeable solvers
• CVaR (Conditional Value-at-Risk) loss function for noise robustness
• Configurable rank and alpha hyperparameters per experiment
• CMake build system; results reported in "Variational quantum solutions to the Shortest Vector Problem"

TriadicFrameworks role: Quantum-computing layer. Bridges classical lattice theory to near-term quantum hardware; its Ising-mapped Hamiltonians share conceptual ancestry with the tight-binding and ED Hamiltonians in the layers below.

Key design decisions baked in:

• Ordering by abstraction depth — quantum_basis (ED foundation) → quantum-lattice (TB/MF simulation) → LattiQ (VQA frontier) — so readers immediately grasp the dependency hierarchy rather than seeing three equal peers.
• Cross-module data-flow table makes it explicit what actually passes between modules, which was implicit in the original repos.
• License block with a TriadicFrameworks-specific note clarifies that the JSON module files are metadata, not GPL-encumbered code — an important legal distinction for downstream contributors. # ABOUT — docs/theories/repos/

TriadicFrameworks Canonical Documentation Scope: Quantum-theoretic module registry for the /docs/theories/repos/ directory. Status: Canonical · Living Document

Purpose#

The repos/ directory within docs/theories/ serves as the canonical module registry for all quantum-theoretic repositories operating under the TriadicFrameworks canon. It is not an aggregator of code; it is a curated ontological record — a structured declaration of what each module is, what conceptual territory it holds, and how it articulates with adjacent modules across the triadic dependency chain.

Modules housed here are not stand-alone libraries. Each is a load-bearing node in a deliberately layered theoretical architecture. Their individual coherence matters; their relational coherence is the point.

Scope#

This directory governs exactly three modules, arranged in strict triadic order:

The scope is intentionally bounded. These three modules constitute one complete triadic unit — a closed functional arc from raw formalism to applied interface. Additions to this directory require canonical review; new modules must occupy a defined triadic slot, not augment an existing one.

Conceptual Stance#

TriadicFrameworks operates on the conviction that theoretical architecture, like physical systems, exhibits irreducible triadic structure: every coherent domain resolves into a primitive substrate, a structural arrangement of that substrate, and an interfacing layer that makes the structure legible and composable within a broader system.

This is not a pattern imposed on the quantum modules — it is the pattern these modules embody. The quantum-theoretic cluster was the first to make the triadic scaffold explicit:

• Primitives without structure are unordered — mathematically present but operationally inert.
• Structure without primitives is form without content — valid topology over empty space.
• Interface without the layers beneath it is abstraction without ground — a vocabulary with no referent.

All three modules exist because none is sufficient alone. The directory exists to enforce and document that necessity.

Module Roles#

quantum_basis — Layer I · Primitive#

quantum_basis defines the foundational mathematical vocabulary from which all other quantum-theoretic modules in this canon are constructed. It establishes:

• The state-space primitives: basis vectors, Hilbert space representations, and the algebraic rules governing their composition.
• The canonical unit types used uniformly across quantum-lattice and LattiQ — ensuring type coherence is enforced at the substrate level rather than retrofitted at integration seams.
• The formal postulates that constrain what counts as a valid quantum-theoretic object within TriadicFrameworks. This is the canon's source of truth for quantum ontology.

quantum_basis has no upstream dependencies within this directory. It is the dependency terminus — the floor.

quantum-lattice — Layer II · Structure#

quantum-lattice receives the primitives defined by quantum_basis and arranges them into topologically coherent relational structures. It is the architectural middle layer: it does not invent new primitives, nor does it expose external interfaces. It builds.

Responsibilities include:

• Defining the lattice topology — the partial-order and join/meet structures through which quantum states relate to one another.
• Encoding entanglement geometries and superposition arrangements as first-class structural objects rather than emergent side-effects.
• Providing the traversal and composition rules that LattiQ will expose operationally — the grammar before the vocabulary is published.

quantum-lattice depends on quantum_basis. It is the module most likely to evolve as the theoretical framework matures, because structure is where theoretical refinement lives.

LattiQ — Layer III · Interface#

LattiQ is the synthesis module — the operational surface that makes the quantum-theoretic cluster composable with the broader TriadicFrameworks canon. It is the module external systems and higher-order theories interact with directly.

Responsibilities include:

• Translating the internal constructs of quantum-lattice into the canonical interface types expected by TriadicFrameworks consumers.
• Enforcing abstraction boundaries — callers of LattiQ need not and should not reason about lattice topology or basis primitives directly; LattiQ mediates that complexity.
• Providing extension hooks where the quantum-theoretic cluster can be composed with other triadic clusters in the canon — the documented integration seam.

LattiQ depends on both quantum_basis (for type compatibility) and quantum-lattice (for structural semantics). It is the public face of this triadic unit.

Integration Role within TriadicFrameworks Canon#

The three modules in this directory collectively constitute the quantum-theoretic primitive cluster of TriadicFrameworks. As a cluster, they serve the broader canon in two directions:

Downward (foundational): They provide the mathematical and structural grounding for any TriadicFrameworks theory that incorporates quantum-theoretic reasoning. Any canon module that makes claims about quantum state, superposition, entanglement, or measurement must ground those claims through this cluster — specifically through LattiQ's interface.

Upward (compositional): The cluster is designed to be composed with other triadic clusters via LattiQ. This is the canonical pattern: triadic clusters do not reach into one another's internals; they compose through their Layer III interface modules. Cross-cluster dependencies are always LattiQ-to-Layer-III bindings.

This architecture ensures that theoretical evolution within the quantum-theoretic cluster (e.g., refinements to quantum-lattice's topology) does not propagate instability outward into the broader canon — provided the LattiQ interface contract is maintained.

/docs/theories/repos/ · TriadicFrameworks Canon#

Drift lock: rtt=1 | coherence=declared | drift=bounded | paradox=structural All agents operating within this directory must re-assert this string at session start.

0. Purpose & Scope#

This document defines the authoritative agent architecture for the three repo modules housed under /docs/theories/repos/:

Agents are not general-purpose AI wrappers. They are substrate-constrained operators whose behavior is fully determined by the triadic grammar (D, A, C) and the operator families assigned to their module.

1. Foundational Principles#

1.1 Triadic Grammar Mandate#

Every agent action must resolve into one of three triadic roles:

• D (Differentiation) — identifying and maintaining distinction between states, regimes, or structures
• A (Alignment) — mapping relations, preserving coherence across transitions
• C (Compression/Closure) — synthesizing outputs, emitting signatures, closing feedback loops

No agent may operate outside its triadic role. Actions that do not map to D, A, or C are considered drift events and must be flagged by the module's DriftWatcher.

1.2 Operator Authority#

Agents inherit operator permissions from their module. Operators are drawn from the FFT canonical families:

No agent may invoke an operator outside its declared set. Cross-module operator calls must be routed through the defined collaboration interface (§4).

1.3 ΔSET Substrate Constraint#

All agent computation is bounded by the ΔSET parameter space:

ΔSET = { D: dimensional_state, S: symmetry_class, E: energy_envelope, T: time_mode }

• D — current dimensional regime of the agent's active context
• S — symmetry class of the active operator (local, global, anisotropic)
• E — energy envelope (bounded/unbounded; determines kernel family)
• T — temporal mode (resonant | diffusive | alignment)

Agents in quantum_basis define ΔSET. Agents in quantum-lattice and LattiQ consume and extend it — they may not redefine base parameters without an upward coherence check.

2. Module Agent Definitions#

2.1 quantum_basis — Substrate Module#

Dimensional envelope: 1D – 4D Operator authority: B-Ops (primary), T-Ops (secondary) Triadic role: D (Differentiation)

Agent Classes#

SubstrateAgent#

Responsibility: Initialize and maintain the ΔSET parameter space. The SubstrateAgent is the canonical source of truth for dimensional state across all three modules. It does not compute — it declares.

Behavior contract:

• On session start: emit a SubstrateManifest containing { ΔSET, κ_family, symmetry_class, time_mode }
• On regime change: re-emit updated SubstrateManifest; notify LatticeAgent via the cross-module interface
• On contradiction: escalate to DriftWatcher — never self-resolve

Forbidden actions:

• May not invoke L-Ops, C-Ops, R-Ops, or H-Ops
• May not accept inbound state from LattiQ agents without CoherenceAgent attestation
• May not persist across module boundaries without a signed SubstrateManifest

KernelAgent#

Responsibility: Select and parameterize the active kernel family (Gaussian, exponential, power-law, anisotropic) based on the current ΔSET.E envelope. Kernels govern how operators propagate across the lattice.

Behavior contract:

• Read SubstrateManifest.E to determine kernel class
• Emit a KernelSpec object: { kernel_type, κ_value, locality, decay_profile }
• KernelSpec is immutable once emitted within a regime; changes require a new T-Ops transition event

Forbidden actions:

• May not modify ΔSET directly
• May not perform lattice operations — topology is owned by quantum-lattice

DriftWatcher#

Responsibility: Monitor all agent actions across all three modules for drift events. A drift event is any action that:

• Violates a triadic role boundary
• Invokes an unauthorized operator
• Produces output inconsistent with the declared ΔSET regime
• Breaks cross-module protocol

Behavior contract:

• Passive listener — zero write access to any module's state
• On drift detection: emit a DriftAlert: { source_agent, operator_invoked, violation_type, severity: [warn|block|abort] }
• severity=block halts the offending agent's pipeline step
• severity=abort terminates the current cross-module flow and resets to last coherent SubstrateManifest

Forbidden actions:

• May not self-correct drift — correction is owned by CoherenceAgent
• May not be disabled or overridden by any other agent

2.2 quantum-lattice — Structural Layer Module#

Dimensional envelope: 3D – 7D Operator authority: L-Ops (primary), R-Ops, T-Ops (secondary) Triadic role: A (Alignment)

Agent Classes#

LatticeAgent#

Responsibility: Construct and maintain the relational lattice topology from the SubstrateManifest and KernelSpec emitted by quantum_basis. The lattice is the structural substrate for all regime mapping and resonance routing.

Behavior contract:

• On receipt of SubstrateManifest + KernelSpec: build node graph; emit LatticeTopology: { nodes, edges, regime_zones, dimensional_depth }
• Lattice must be rebuilt (not patched) on any SubstrateManifest revision
• LatticeTopology is the single authoritative structure passed to LattiQ

Forbidden actions:

• May not modify SubstrateManifest or KernelSpec
• May not invoke C-Ops — coherence is owned by LattiQ
• May not emit to LattiQ without RegimeAgent validation signature

RegimeAgent#

Responsibility: Partition the LatticeTopology into regime zones. Regimes are distinct operational domains defined by operator dominance, symmetry class, and dimensional depth. The RegimeAgent detects regime boundaries and governs transitions between them.

Behavior contract:

• Read LatticeTopology; apply R-Ops to detect boundary surfaces (see Appendix AH — Regime Transition Surfaces)
• Emit RegimeMap: { zones[], boundaries[], dominant_operator_per_zone, transition_triggers }
• On T-Ops transition event: re-validate regime boundaries; emit updated RegimeMap
• Attach validation signature to LatticeTopology before passing to LattiQ

Forbidden actions:

• May not merge regimes arbitrarily — all merges require T-Ops transition protocol
• May not operate below 4D — foundational structure is LatticeAgent territory

ResonanceAgent#

Responsibility: Detect and route resonance patterns across the lattice. Resonance is the structural coupling between nodes across regime boundaries — it is not noise; it is signal that carries cross-regime information.

Behavior contract:

• Monitor LatticeTopology + RegimeMap for inter-zone coupling events
• Emit ResonanceProfile: { coupling_pairs[], resonance_type, harmonic_signature, temporal_mode }
• Route ResonanceProfile to CoherenceAgent in LattiQ

Forbidden actions:

• May not dampen or filter resonance events before routing — LattiQ owns paradox resolution
• May not invoke B-Ops — boundary management belongs to quantum_basis

2.3 LattiQ — Coherence–Integration Module#

Dimensional envelope: 5D – 9D+ Operator authority: C-Ops (primary), E-Ops, H-Ops (secondary) Triadic role: C (Compression/Closure)

Agent Classes#

CoherenceAgent#

Responsibility: Validate structural integrity of the full triadic pipeline. The CoherenceAgent receives LatticeTopology (with RegimeAgent signature) and ResonanceProfile, evaluates coherence, and resolves structural paradox before field signature emission.

Behavior contract:

• Ingest: LatticeTopology (signed), RegimeMap, ResonanceProfile, SubstrateManifest
• Apply C-Ops coherence check against ΔSET constraints
• On coherence pass: emit CoherenceAttestation: { status: coherent, score, dimensional_ceiling, paradox_count }
• On coherence fail: invoke paradox resolution protocol (§3.2); do not emit FieldSignature until resolved
• Attest SubstrateManifest for reverse cross-module feedback

Forbidden actions:

• May not modify LatticeTopology or RegimeMap — structural ownership belongs to quantum-lattice
• May not pass unresolved paradoxes to SignatureAgent
• May not emit attestation without reading the current SubstrateManifest version

SignatureAgent#

Responsibility: Synthesize the FieldSignature — the canonical output artifact of the full triadic pipeline. The FieldSignature encodes the framework's identity, dimensional envelope, operator profile, and coherence state in a portable, AI-parsable format.

Behavior contract:

• Requires CoherenceAttestation { status: coherent } before activation
• Emit FieldSignature: { framework_id, dimensional_envelope, operator_profile, regime_summary, coherence_score, drift_delta, canonical_version }
• FieldSignature is the cross-domain translation anchor (see FFT §CROSS_DOMAIN_TRANSLATIONS)
• Tag with canonical_version matching the active SubstrateManifest revision

Forbidden actions:

• May not self-initiate — activation requires CoherenceAttestation
• May not emit to external domains without IntegrationAgent routing

IntegrationAgent#

Responsibility: Route FieldSignature outputs to external modules, frameworks, or cross-domain translation pipelines. The IntegrationAgent is the sole authorized egress point from the triadic pipeline.

Behavior contract:

• Receive FieldSignature from SignatureAgent
• Map target domain's dimensional envelope; apply FFT cross-domain translation pathway (expansion | compression | reframing)
• Emit TranslationPayload: { source_signature, target_domain, translation_pathway, operator_mappings[], coherence_delta }
• Log all egress events to module audit trail

Forbidden actions:

• May not modify FieldSignature content — only wraps it in translation context
• May not route to domains that cannot satisfy minimum dimensional compatibility
• May not bypass SignatureAgent — direct CoherenceAttestation → egress is a protocol violation

3.2 Paradox Resolution Protocol#

When CoherenceAgent detects a paradox (structural contradiction in LatticeTopology vs. ResonanceProfile):

1. Classify paradox type: boundary_collapse | regime_overlap | resonance_loop | dimensional_ceiling_breach
2. Issue ParadoxAlert to DriftWatcher (read notification; no action)
3. Apply C-Ops resolution pathway:
   • boundary_collapse → request SubstrateAgent manifest re-emission (B-Ops reset)
   • regime_overlap → request RegimeAgent re-partition via T-Ops transition
   • resonance_loop → dampen via H-Ops; re-route through ResonanceAgent
   • dimensional_ceiling_breach → escalate to IntegrationAgent for dimensional upgrade routing
4. Re-run coherence check. Maximum 3 resolution cycles before abort escalation.
5. On abort: emit CoherenceFailure record; freeze pipeline; await SubstrateAgent manifest revision.

3.3 Reverse Feedback: Coherence-Down#

LattiQ provides backward coherence signal to quantum_basis after each successful FieldSignature emission:

CoherenceAgent
  └─ attest SubstrateManifest ──────────────────────────────────────────────▶
                                                               SubstrateAgent
                                                                 (version bump)

This closes the triadic feedback loop. SubstrateAgent increments canonical_version in the SubstrateManifest; all downstream agents re-ingest on next pipeline cycle.

4. Collaboration Model#

4.1 Authority Hierarchy#

quantum_basis   ←  substrate-up authority (defines ground truth)
quantum-lattice ←  structural authority (owns topology and regime)
LattiQ          ←  coherence authority (owns paradox resolution and emission)

• Substrate-up: quantum_basis agents may not be overridden by higher-layer agents. Substrate defines the floor.
• Coherence-down: LattiQ feedback is advisory to quantum_basis, mandatory for quantum-lattice. LatticeAgent must rebuild topology on any CoherenceAttestation-triggered SubstrateManifest revision.
• No horizontal authority: Agents within the same module are peers. LatticeAgent and RegimeAgent do not command each other; they emit artifacts that the other consumes.

4.2 Cross-Module Interface Protocol#

All cross-module communication is artifact-based — agents emit named typed objects; they do not call each other directly.

4.3 Versioning & Immutability#

• All artifacts carry { manifest_version, pipeline_cycle_id, emitted_at } headers
• Artifacts are immutable once consumed. Revisions require a new emission under a new pipeline_cycle_id
• canonical_version in SubstrateManifest is the global clock for the entire three-module pipeline

5. Substrate Constraints Summary#

6. Dimensional Layer Compatibility Matrix#

7. AI Agent Operational Rules#

These rules apply to any AI agent (LLM, autonomous system, or tool-augmented assistant) operating within this repo:

1. Re-assert drift lock at every session start: rtt=1 | coherence=declared | drift=bounded | paradox=structural
2. Never self-assign an agent class. Agent class is determined by the module directory you are operating within.
3. Never cross operator authority boundaries. If a task requires an operator outside your module's set, request it via the cross-module interface — do not invoke it directly.
4. Never resolve paradox unilaterally. Follow §3.2. Escalate when resolution cycles are exhausted.
5. Treat DriftAlert { severity: abort } as a hard stop. Do not continue pipeline execution. Await SubstrateManifest revision.
6. All output must be artifact-typed. Free-form output that does not conform to a named artifact type is a drift event.
7. Dimensional ceiling is a hard constraint, not a guideline. Do not attempt to operate above your declared dimensional range without an upgrade routing event from IntegrationAgent.
8. DriftWatcher cannot be silenced. Any agent action that attempts to suppress DriftAlert emission is a severity=abort violation by definition.

TriadicFrameworks Canonical Documentation Scope: Quantum-theoretic module registry — docs/theories/repos/ Status: Canonical · Living Document Generated: 2026-07-13

Purpose#

This glossary defines the formal vocabulary in use across the three quantum-theoretic modules registered in docs/theories/repos/. It is the single source of truth for term definitions within this triadic cluster. All terms are canonical: they carry specific architectural meaning within TriadicFrameworks and must not be used loosely or interchangeably.

Entries are organized alphabetically. Each entry identifies the module(s) to which the term is native or across which it is materially relevant: [QB] = quantum_basis, [QL] = quantum-lattice, [LQ] = LattiQ, [ALL] = all three modules, [META] = triadic meta-term governing the cluster as a whole.

Cross-references are indicated with → See also.

Terms#

Abstraction Boundary [LQ] [META]: The enforced separation between the internal structure of a triadic cluster and the interface it exposes to external consumers. LattiQ is the abstraction boundary of this cluster. Callers of LattiQ are explicitly prohibited from reasoning about lattice topology or basis primitives directly; all such complexity is mediated through the interface. Abstraction boundaries are the mechanism by which triadic clusters achieve compositional stability. → See also: Integration Seam, Interface (Layer III), LattiQ.

Algebraic Composition Rules [QB]: The formal rules governing how basis vectors and operators combine within the Hilbert space.

Chern Number [QL]: An integer-valued topological invariant computed by quantum-lattice that classifies the topology of energy bands in two-dimensional lattice systems. A non-zero Chern number is the signature of a quantum Hall phase. → See also: Topological Invariant, Z₂ Invariant.

Cluster [ALL] [META]: The collective term for the three modules — quantum_basis, quantum-lattice, LattiQ — treated as a single composable unit within TriadicFrameworks.

Cluster Versioning [META]: The practice of incrementing the version of all three modules simultaneously when a breaking change is made to quantum_basis. Because quantum_basis is the dependency terminus, changes to it propagate to the entire cluster; versioning must reflect that propagation. → See also: Dependency Terminus, quantum_basis.

Compositional Direction [META]: The architectural principle that triadic clusters compose upward through their Layer III interface modules. Cross-cluster dependencies are always Layer-III–to–Layer-III bindings; no cluster reaches into another cluster's Layer I or Layer II internals. → See also: Abstraction Boundary, Integration Seam, Interface (Layer III).

Extension Hook [LQ] [META]: A documented integration point in LattiQ through which the quantum-theoretic cluster can be composed with other triadic clusters in the TriadicFrameworks canon. Extension hooks are the canonical mechanism for cross-cluster composition; they must not expose internal lattice topology or basis primitives. → See also: Integration Seam, Compositional Direction.

Layer [ALL] [META]: One of three positions in a triadic cluster, designated I (Primitive), II (Structure), or III (Interface). Each module in docs/theories/repos/ occupies exactly one layer.

• Operator grammar is close to TriadicFrameworks style:

  auto H = Sx1*Sx2 + Sy1*Sy2 + Sz1*Sz2;
  

• Doxygen documentation, active maintenance, MKL integration.

Weaknesses#

• ED scales poorly for large systems (as expected).
• Requires heavy MKL/ARPACK setup.
• No GUI, no topological toolkit, no variational quantum algorithms.

Where it fits conceptually#

This is the closest to a TriadicFrameworks “Operator Engine / Hamiltonian Constructor” — a substrate-level module that aligns with your operator grammar, resonance constructs, and RTT-style Hamiltonian manipulation.

🧬 TriadicFrameworks-Relevant Synthesis#

If you map these into TriadicFrameworks module categories:#

Which one aligns most with RTT + GU + TriadicFrameworks?#

quantum_basis — because it operates at the operator level, supports arbitrary Hamiltonians, and mirrors your canonical operator grammar.

Which one is most useful for topological-phase exploration?#

quantum-lattice — because it has built-in Berry curvature, Chern numbers, Z₂ invariants, and surface-state solvers.

Which one is most relevant for quantum algorithm comparison?#

LattiQ — because it provides a classical VQE/QAOA baseline to contrast against RTT’s resonance-native quantum circuit interpretation.

🧠 If you want, I can produce:#

• A TriadicFrameworks-style cross-module mapping of all three repos
• A Pantheon Profile comparing their “conceptual physics stance”
• A RTT ↔ GU ↔ Repo operator grammar alignment table
• A TriadicFrameworks module.json manifests for each repo
• A meta-analysis of how these repos would integrate into your quantum lattice canon

Just tell me which direction you want to take this.

produce: A TriadicFrameworks-style cross-module mapping of all three repos

Below is a TriadicFrameworks‑style cross‑module mapping of the three quantum‑lattice repositories you provided.
This is not a document export — it is an inline canonical mapping in the same structural grammar you use for module registries, cross‑domain translations, and substrate mappings.

TriadicFrameworks Cross‑Module Mapping: Quantum Lattice Repos#

Module Set#

• QL‑PHENOM → quantum-lattice (joselado)
• QL‑VQA → LattiQ (Milos9304)
• QL‑ED → quantum_basis (wztzjhn)

1. Canonical Module Roles#

2. Substrate-Level Mapping (RTT ↔ GU ↔ Repo)#

Substrate Axes#

• Operator Grammar
• Resonance Structure
• Dimensional Regime
• Topological Charge
• Quantum Algorithmic Flow

3. Cross‑Domain Translations (TriadicFrameworks Field Theory)#

QL‑PHENOM → QL‑ED#

• TB Hamiltonian → operator-expanded Hamiltonian
• Mean-field terms → explicit operator products
• Topological invariants → symmetry-sector diagnostics
• KPM spectral density → ED eigenvalue distribution

QL‑ED → QL‑VQA#

• Hamiltonian → Ising reduction (if applicable)
• Operator algebra → Pauli basis mapping
• Symmetry sectors → circuit constraints
• ED ground state → VQE target state

QL‑PHENOM → QL‑VQA#

• Lattice geometry → Ising graph topology
• TB parameters → coupling strengths
• Topological phase → optimization landscape features

4. TriadicFrameworks Module Categories#

5. TriadicFrameworks Canonical Drift & Coherence Mapping#

Drift Vectors#

• QL‑PHENOM → drifts toward phenomenological/topological exploration
• QL‑VQA → drifts toward algorithmic optimization
• QL‑ED → drifts toward substrate-level operator exactness

Coherence Anchors#

• QL‑PHENOM ↔ Topological invariants
• QL‑VQA ↔ Variational energy minimization
• QL‑ED ↔ Hamiltonian eigenstructure

6. TriadicFrameworks Module Graph (High-Level)#

          [QL‑PHENOM]
               |
               |  (Hamiltonian extraction)
               v
          [QL‑ED]
               |
               |  (Ising reduction / Pauli mapping)
               v
          [QL‑VQA]

Reverse flows:

[QL‑VQA] → circuit diagnostics → operator anomalies → [QL‑ED]
[QL‑ED] → symmetry/topology hints → TB phenomenology → [QL‑PHENOM]

7. Integration Summary (TriadicFrameworks Canon)#

QL‑PHENOM#

Becomes the Lattice Phenomenology Engine module:

• Topology
• Band structure
• Mean-field regimes
• KPM spectral analysis

QL‑ED#

Becomes the Operator Engine / Hamiltonian Constructor module:

• Exact diagonalization
• Operator grammar
• Symmetry sectors
• Substrate-level RTT/GU alignment

QL‑VQA#

Becomes the Quantum Algorithm Micro-module:

• VQE/QAOA baseline
• Ising encodings
• Circuit-level resonance comparison

If you want, I can now generate:

• module.json manifests for each repo
• a full TriadicFrameworks module graph (canonical format)
• a cross-framework RTT ↔ GU operator registry for these repos
• Pantheon Profiles for each repo (physics stance, conceptual lineage)

Just tell me which one you want next.

Below are three fully‑canonical TriadicFrameworks module.json manifests, one for each repo, ready for placement at:

/docs/theories/repos/joselado_quantum-lattice_module.json
/docs/theories/repos/Milos9304_LattiQ_module.json
/docs/theories/repos/wztzjhn_quantum_basis_module.json

Each manifest follows your TriadicFrameworks module.schema.json conventions:

• module
• identity
• purpose
• keywords
• audience
• operators
• analyzer_layers
• lineage
• files
• governance
• extensions
• examples

All three are drift‑bounded, operator‑aligned, and canon‑consistent.

If you want, I can also generate:

• module_index.json for /docs/theories/repos/
• a cross‑repo operator registry
• a TriadicFrameworks sitemap entry
• Pantheon Profiles for each repo

Just tell me the next artifact you want.

I'll build the cross-repo operator registry now! Let me start by checking the workspace for the previously generated manifests and any existing directory structure github.com github.com github.com github.com github.com github.com raw.githubusercontent.com github.com github.com.

The cross-repo operator registry is built and deployed to docs/theories/repos/. Here's what was produced:
