MQ distinguishes local cycle closure from global referenceability
A local transport condition on shrinkable loops does not determine every global closure requirement.
· Recorded source version · Retrospective release
CHICAGO — The MQ mapping argument requires consistent transport around contractible reference cycles, loops that can be continuously shrunk within the domain. Nonzero holonomy on such a cycle conflicts with the stipulated unique realization. Holonomy here means a net change after transport around the cycle.
Figure 1 summarizes the source result and its evidentiary scope.
The result and its scope
Local transport test
Closure around shrinkable reference loops
Global question
Noncontractible loops may retain holonomy
Evidence boundary
Independent closure conditions must all be checked
The current source review separates that necessary local condition from a global conclusion. Noncontractible loops can retain a global transport difference. A restriction checked only on shrinkable loops therefore does not establish every topological condition required by the entire domain.
The source also requires the algebraically independent closure conditions to hold together. Verifying one dependent cycle cannot establish the remaining independent constraints. The distinction prevents a single illustrative loop from being presented as a complete proof of global referenceability.
This is a mathematical clarification of the realization requirements used in the universe-origin account. It supplies no direct observation of global cosmic topology and does not prove full spacetime regularity. The October source qualification identifies which inference is supported and where additional assumptions must enter before a local closure argument can be extended globally.
