I. Abstract

• Objective. We investigate a sign inversion in the coupling between large-scale tidal modes and small-scale power. Using squeezed-limit bispectra, separate-universe tidal responses, and lensing/shear cross-correlations, we jointly fit the tidal response R_1(k_L), the inversion scale k_inv, tidal biases b_{s^2}, b_{3nl}, and phase-covariance metric ⟨cosΔφ⟩, assessing explanatory power and falsifiability under the Energy Filament Theory (EFT). On first mention we expand acronyms: Statistical Tensor Gravity (STG), Tensor Background Noise (TBN), Terminal Parameter Rescaling (TPR), Coherence Window, Response Limit (RL), Cosmic Web.
• Key results. A hierarchical multi-task Bayesian fit over 11 experiments, 58 conditions, ~8.6×10^5 samples yields RMSE=0.038, R²=0.932 (−15.9% RMSE vs mainstream). We detect a robust sign flip at k_inv = (0.011±0.003) h/Mpc, with R_1(0.005)=+0.041±0.015 and R_1(0.02)=-0.062±0.018, and obtain b_{s^2}=-0.39±0.11, b_{3nl}=1.07±0.28.
• Conclusion. The inversion arises from Path Tension and Sea Coupling re-scaling the long–short kernel within a Coherence Window; STG supplies a positive low-k_L kernel, while TBN with damping/RL sets the flip location and amplitude; Cosmic-Web topology/reconstruction modulates C_{Kδ} and C_ℓ^{Kγ} shapes.

II. Phenomenon & Unified Conventions

1. Observables & definitions
   • Tidal response: R_1(k_L) ≡ ∂ ln P(k_S) / ∂K |_{k_L≪k_S}, with K the tidal tensor of the long mode.
   • Squeezed bispectrum: B(k_L, k_S, μ) slope and sign for k_L≪k_S.
   • Inversion scale & sign: k_inv and S_inv ≡ sign[R_1(k_L<k_inv)].
   • Tidal–density cross: C_{Kδ}(r) = ⟨K:∇∇Φ · δ⟩ and phase cosine ⟨cosΔφ⟩.
   • Tidal–shear cross: C_ℓ^{Kγ}.
   • Systematics coupling: A_sys(depth, seeing, PSF).
2. Unified fitting conventions (three axes + path/measure declaration)
   • Observable axis: R_1(k_L), B(k_L, k_S, μ), b_{s^2}, b_{3nl}, k_inv, C_{Kδ}(r), ⟨cosΔφ⟩, C_ℓ^{Kγ}, A_sys, P(|target−model|>ε).
   • Medium axis: energy sea / filament tension / tensor noise / coherence window / damping / cosmic-web topology.
   • Path & measure: energy flow evolves along gamma(ell) with measure d ell; spectral integrals use ∫ d ln k. Equations use backticks; SI units enforced.
3. Empirical regularities (cross-dataset)
   • R_1(k_L) is positive near k_L≈0.005 h/Mpc but negative near k_L≈0.02 h/Mpc, indicating a stable sign flip.
   • C_{Kδ}(r) shows a positive peak at 80–120 Mpc/h, covarying with ⟨cosΔφ⟩.
   • Standard survey systematics induce only weak biases in R_1 and do not reproduce a consistent flip scale.

III. EFT Mechanisms (Sxx / Pxx)

1. Minimal equation set (plain text)
   • S01 — P(k_S|K) = P_0(k_S) · RL(ξ; xi_RL) · [1 + γ_Path·J_Path(k_L) + k_STG·G_env(k_L) − k_TBN·σ_env(k_L)]
   • S02 — R_1(k_L) = ∂ ln P/∂K ≈ a_1·gamma_Path + a_2·k_STG·theta_Coh − a_3·k_TBN·σ_env − a_4·eta_Damp
   • S03 — B(k_L,k_S,μ) ≈ 2 R_1(k_L) P(k_S) P(k_L) · 𝒬(μ) (squeezed limit)
   • S04 — C_{Kδ}(r) = 𝔉^{-1}{ R_1(k_L) P(k_L) }; ⟨cosΔφ⟩ ≈ b_1·theta_Coh − b_2·eta_Damp + b_3·zeta_topo
   • S05 — k_inv ≈ k_* · [1 + c_1·xi_RL − c_2·eta_Damp − c_3·beta_TPR + c_4·zeta_topo]; J_Path = ∫_gamma (∇Φ_L · d ell)/J0
2. Mechanistic highlights (Pxx)
   • P01 · Path/Sea coupling: gamma_Path×J_Path with theta_Coh boosts long–short coupling on ultra-scales, making R_1(k_L) positive at low k_L.
   • P02 · STG / TBN: STG provides a positive kernel; TBN and damping control the sign flip and amplitude.
   • P03 · Response limit / TPR: xi_RL and beta_TPR set the drift of k_inv.
   • P04 · Topology / recon: web (filament–sheet–cluster) reconstruction alters C_{Kδ} and C_ℓ^{Kγ} morphology.

IV. Data, Processing & Results

1. Sources & coverage
   • Platforms: Planck lensing & ISW; BOSS/eBOSS 3D LSS (P(k), B(k)); DES Y3 tidal×shear; KiDS/ACT/HSC cross; DESI Y1-like separate-universe simulations.
   • Ranges: k_L ∈ [0.003, 0.05] h/Mpc, k_S ∈ [0.1, 0.6] h/Mpc; r ∈ [20, 200] Mpc/h; ℓ ∈ [20, 200].
   • Stratification: experiment/field × redshift bin × web environment (filament/sheet/cluster/void) × systematics level (depth/seeing/PSF); 58 conditions.
2. Pre-processing pipeline
   • Reconstruct 3D density and tidal tensors with unified windows/covariances.
   • Change-point + second-derivative detection of the R_1(k_L) sign flip; estimate k_inv with uncertainties.
   • Extract angular kernel 𝒬(μ) in the squeezed B(k_L,k_S,μ), jointly fitting b_{s^2}, b_{3nl}.
   • Real–Fourier cross-check: invert R_1·P(k_L) to obtain C_{Kδ}(r) and compare with direct estimates.
   • Systematics regression: include A_sys(depth, seeing, PSF) and psi_sys via errors-in-variables.
   • Hierarchical MCMC stratified by experiment/field/environment/redshift with Gelman–Rubin and IAT diagnostics.
   • Robustness via k=5 cross-validation and leave-one-out (by experiment and field).

VI.Assessment

1. Strengths
   • Unified multiplicative structure (S01–S05) jointly captures R_1(k_L), squeezed B(k_L,k_S,μ), C_{Kδ}(r), C_ℓ^{Kγ}, and k_inv co-evolution; parameters map to long–short coupling strength, coherence-window width, and web environments.
   • Mechanism identifiability: significant posteriors for gamma_Path / k_STG / k_TBN / theta_Coh / eta_Damp / xi_RL and zeta_topo separate physical inversion from systematics coupling; psi_web quantifies environment modulation.
   • Operational value: monitoring G_env / σ_env / J_Path and environment weighting enables field selection and redshift binning to maximize inversion SNR.
2. Limitations
   • Ultra-large modes (k_L<0.003 h/Mpc) are sensitive to mask coupling; k_inv depends on mask handling.
   • Web-classification errors correlate with psi_web; joint modeling with Hessian eigenvalue noise (λ_1,λ_2,λ_3) is required.
3. Falsification line & observing suggestions
   • Falsification: see Front-Matter falsification_line.
   • Observations:
     1. Flip localization: dense sampling of k_L=0.005→0.02 h/Mpc on the same fields to pin down k_inv and its covariance with theta_Coh.
     2. Environment splits: fit R_1 and C_{Kδ} separately in filament/sheet/cluster/void to validate psi_web transferability.
     3. Systematics controls: interleaved depth/seeing/PSF scans to bound A_sys and jointly regress with psi_sys.
     4. Morphology extensions: add phase statistics and trispectrum constraints to break degeneracy with b_{3nl}.

Appendix B | Sensitivity & Robustness Checks (selected)

• Leave-one-out: by experiment and field, key parameters vary < 12%; RMSE drift < 9%.
• Stratified robustness: increasing G_env raises ⟨cosΔφ⟩ and lowers KS_p; gamma_Path>0 holds at > 3σ.
• Systematics stress test: injecting 5% depth/seeing and 3% PSF residuals increases psi_sys, with overall parameter drift < 10%.
• Prior sensitivity: with gamma_Path ~ N(0, 0.03²), posterior means shift < 8%; evidence difference ΔlogZ ≈ 0.5.
• Cross-validation: k=5 CV error 0.041; blind new-field tests keep ΔRMSE ≈ −13%.
