## Abstract

Direct (non-accelerated) evaluation of the Vacuum Density Series polylogarithm $\text{Li}_{26}(z) = \sum_{n=1}^N z^n / n^{26}$ for cross-validation against the Ramanujan-accelerated summation. Both must agree to working precision.

## 1. VDS Polylogarithm

$$\text{Li}_{26}(z) = \sum_{n=1}^{N} \frac{z^n}{n^{26}}$$

## 2. Cross-Validation

$$|S_{26}(z) - \text{Li}_{26}(z)| \xrightarrow{N \to \infty} 0$$

### Session 225 Phonon-Physics Upgrade: UQFF 9-Sector Lagrangian

> *Upgrade from PAPER_1066 (UQFF Lagrangian First Principles) and
> PAPER_1065 (Buoyancy Lagrangian EOM Variational Derivation).*

The complete UQFF Lagrangian density, from which all sector-specific
equations of motion derive:

$$\mathcal{L}_{\text{UQFF}} = \mathcal{L}_{\text{GR}} + \mathcal{L}_{\text{SCm}} + \mathcal{L}_{\text{phonon}} + \mathcal{L}_{\text{interaction}}$$

$$\mathcal{L}_{\text{SCm}} = \tfrac{1}{2}(\partial_\mu \phi)^2 - \lambda\bigl(\phi^2 - v_{\text{SCm}}^2\bigr)^2$$

The SCm condensate potential minimum gives $V(\phi_0) = -7.09 \times 10^{-37}\;\text{J/m}^3$
(matching $\rho_{\text{SCm}}$) and phonon mass $m_{\text{phonon}} = \sqrt{8\lambda}\,v_{\text{SCm}}$.

**Nine-sector closure (Session 202):**
$$\mathcal{L}_{9} = \mathcal{L}_{\text{EH}} + \mathcal{L}_{\text{YM}} + \mathcal{L}_{\text{Dirac}} + \mathcal{L}_{\text{SCm}} + \mathcal{L}_{\text{mag}} + \mathcal{L}_{\text{buoy}} + \mathcal{L}_{\text{aether}} + \mathcal{L}_{\text{LENR}} + \mathcal{L}_{\text{KK}}$$

### Session 225 Phonon-Physics Upgrade: S26(3) Ramanujan Summation

> *Upgrade from PAPER_1080 (Ramanujan Binomial Expansion Proof) and
> PAPER_1042 (Mock-Theta Phonon Partition).  See also PAPER_1078
> (QCalcGeom Master Equation) for BSFG crossover applications.*

The third-order Ramanujan summation $S_{26}^{(3)}$, used throughout the
late corpus as the universal 26D coupling factor:

$$S_{26}^{(3)} = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \frac{(1/4)_n\,(1/2)_n\,(3/4)_n}{(n!)^3} \cdot \prod_{i=1}^{26}\left[1 + [\text{SSq}]\cdot e^{-\kappa\,i\,n/26}\right]$$

where $(a)_n = a(a+1)\cdot s(a+n-1)$ is the Pochhammer symbol.

**Binomial expansion (PAPER_1080):** The convergence proof shows:
$$R_n^{(26,3)} = \binom{4n}{n} \cdot \frac{W_{26}(n)}{(4^{4n})} \qquad \text{with}\quad W_{26}(n) = \prod_{i=1}^{26}\left[1 + [\text{SSq}]\cdot e^{-\kappa\,i\,n/26}\right]$$

This sum converges absolutely for $|[\text{SSq}]| < 1$ (satisfied by $[\text{SSq}] = 0.57$)
and reduces to the classical Ramanujan $1/\pi$ series when $[\text{SSq}] \to 0$.

**VDS/DVP/BSH bridge (PAPER_1069):** The 26 layers of $W_{26}(n)$ encode the
vacuum density series hierarchy, with each layer $i$ contributing a VDS
sub-ratio weighted by the exponential decay $e^{-\kappa\,i\,n/26}$.

**Mock-theta connection (PAPER_1042):** The phonon partition function
$Z_{\text{phonon}} = \sum_n q^{n^2} \cdot W_{26}(n)$ unifies the Ramanujan
mock-theta framework with the SCm phonon spectrum.
