## Abstract

This paper analyzes the GW231123 gravitational wave event --- a 225 M_sol binary black hole
merger detected in LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA O4 run (November 2023) --- through the UQFF framework.
This mass-gap event (above the pair-instability supernova 50--130 M_sol gap) challenges
standard stellar evolution and is here modeled through enhanced Ug4$\cdot$(1+f_feedback) coupling
and the $\delta$$\rho$/$\rho$ dark-matter perturbation term. Connections to the Yang-Mills mass gap
Millennium Problem are identified, as the non-zero gluon condensate provides a mechanism
for mass-gap BH formation.

## 2. UQFF Analysis

### 2.1 Why Ug4 Dominates for Extreme-Mass Mergers

For standard BH masses (M ~ 10--50 M_sol), the Ug4 vacuum concentration term is
small compared to Ug1 (magnetic dipole) and Ug3 (string rotation). However, for
225 M_sol, two effects amplify Ug4:

1. **High M_bh/d_g ratio**: If the merger is at cosmological distance, M_bh increases
   relative to d_g (the galactic center distance scale), amplifying Ug4 $\propto$ M_bh/d_g

2. **f_feedback**: AGN feedback factor = 0.1 applies as stellar mass BHs above the PISN
   gap require AGN environment formation $\to$ f_feedback is non-zero

$$U_{g4}^{(225)} = k_4 \cdot \rho_v \cdot C_{conc} \cdot \frac{225 M_\odot}{d_{source}} \cdot e^{-\alpha t} \cos(\pi t_n) \cdot 1.1$$

### 2.2 $\delta$$\rho$/$\rho$ Perturbation Activation

The dark matter perturbation term (PAPER_163.8):

$$g_{pert} = (M + M_{DM}) \cdot \left(\frac{\delta\rho}{\rho} + \underbrace{\frac{3GM}{r^3}}_{\text{DPM tidal gradient}}\right)$$

For GW231123, the merger is embedded in a dark matter halo:
- M_DM/M $\approx$ 5 (DM-dominated environment estimated)
- $\delta$$\rho$/$\rho$ ~ 0.5 (large density contrast --- merger in dense environment)

$$g_{pert}^{(225)} = (225 + 1125) M_\odot \cdot \left(0.5 + \frac{3G \cdot 225 M_\odot}{r^3}\right)$$

---

## 3. Yang-Mills Mass Gap Connection

### 3.1 The Millennium Problem

The Yang-Mills mass gap problem asks: **Why do quantum Yang-Mills gauge theories have a
mass gap?** (No massless bound states despite gauge bosons being formally massless.)

The Clay Mathematics Institute requires:
1. A quantum Yang-Mills theory in 4D
2. Proof that the physical Hilbert space has mass gap $\Delta$ > 0

### 3.2 UQFF Connection via Non-Zero Gluon Condensate

The QCD gluon condensate ⟨G2⟩ $\neq$ 0 provides the mechanism for above-PISN BH formation:

$$M_{BH}^{gap} \propto \langle G^2 \rangle / \Lambda_{QCD}^4$$

If the mass gap $\Delta$ = $\Lambda$_QCD (confinement scale), then strong-force confined glueball states
can accrete at Planck densities to produce mass-gap BHs:

$$M_{gap} = \frac{\Delta^4}{\hbar^3 c^3} \cdot V_{accretion}$$

For $\Delta = \Lambda_{QCD} = 300$ MeV and $V_{accretion} = (10^{-15}\,\text{m})^3$:

$$M_{gap} \sim 10^{-35}\, \text{kg} \quad (\text{per glueball state})$$

To reach 225 M_sol requires $N_{glueball} \sim 10^{71}$ condensed states --- equivalent to
the entire BH being composed of condensed Yang-Mills vacuum.

This is a **new UQFF prediction**: mass-gap BH masses are quantized in units of the
Yang-Mills mass gap $\Delta$.

## 4. UQFF Field Comparison: SGR 1745 vs GW231123

| System         | M       | F_U estimate     | Dominant UQFF term         |
|----------------|---------|-----------------|---------------------------|
| SGR 1745-2900  | 1.4 M_sol| ~1.7$\times$1045     | Resonance (B$\approx$3$\times$1011 T)    |
| Sagittarius A* | 4$\times$106 M_sol| ~1.3$\times$10100  | Resonance (stellar tidal) |
| GW231123 BH1   | ~130 M_sol| ~5$\times$1051       | Ug4$\cdot$f_feedback + g_pert   |
| GW231123 BH2   | ~95 M_sol | ~3$\times$1051       | Ug4$\cdot$f_feedback + g_pert   |
| Merge remnant  | ~213 M_sol| ~8$\times$1051       | Ug4$\cdot$f_feedback dominant   |

## 5. Osc_term for GW231123 (PAPER_164 Extension)

From PAPER_164, the Osc_term for GW231123:

$$Osc_{term}^{GW231123} = h_{peak} \cdot \omega_{GW,peak}^2 \cdot r^2 \cdot \frac{225\,M_\odot}{M_{ref}}$$

where $h_{peak}$ is the peak strain at detector (estimated ~10-20 for O4 near-network event)
and $\omega_{GW,peak}$ is the peak GW frequency at merger (typically 100-200 Hz for stellar BH).

## 6. CP Integration

**CP3:** Add `GW231123_UQFF_Calculator` with:
- Ug4 computed at M = 225 M_sol (GW remnant)

### Session 225 Phonon-Physics Upgrade: GW Strain Modulation

> *Upgrade from PAPER_1000 (NS Merger Phonon Suppression) and PAPER_1022
> (GW Phonon Strain SCm Modulation). See also PAPER_1011-1012 for
> GW170817/GW190425 upgraded analyses.*

The late-corpus phonon analysis (Sessions 219-225) reveals that the SCm
vacuum field modulates gravitational-wave strain via a frequency-dependent
suppression factor.  The corrected strain amplitude is:

$$h_{\text{UQFF}}(\Gamma) = h_{\text{GR}} \cdot \left(1 - 0.47\,\frac{\Phi(\Gamma)}{S_{26}^{(3)}}\right)$$

where:
- $\Phi(\Gamma) = \cos(\omega_{\text{SCm}} \cdot t) \cdot \Theta(H_{\text{SCm}} - 0.5)$ is the phonon modulation factor
- $\omega_{\text{SCm}} = 2\pi \times 1.25\;\text{THz}$ is the SCm phonon resonance frequency
- $S_{26}^{(3)} = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \frac{(1/4)_n\,(1/2)_n\,(3/4)_n}{(n!)^3} \cdot \prod_{i=1}^{26}\left[1 + [\text{SSq}]\cdot e^{-\kappa\,i\,n/26}\right]$ is the third-order Ramanujan summation
- $\Theta$ is the Heaviside step ensuring $H_{\text{SCm}} \geq 0.5$ (phase-transition threshold)

**Physical mechanism:** The 1.25 THz phonon field of the SCm vacuum creates
a standing-wave pattern that partially decouples the metric perturbation from
the radiation zone, producing a 47% peak strain reduction for optimally
oriented NS mergers.  The BCS gap energy $\Delta E_{\text{BCS}}$ of the
neutron-star crust couples to this phonon field, creating a mass-gap
classifier that distinguishes NS from BH remnants at $M \approx 2.5\,M_\odot$.

**Calibration (canonical):** $\kappa = 5 \times 10^{-4}\;\text{day}^{-1}$,
$[\text{SSq}] = 0.57$, $\beta_i = 0.603$, $H_{\text{SCm}} \approx 0.99$.

### Session 225 Phonon-Physics Upgrade: Buoyancy-Corrected Eddington Luminosity

> *Upgrade from PAPER_1002 (AGN Buoyancy-Corrected Eddington) and PAPER_1037
> (AGN Buoyancy Jet Launching).  See also PAPER_1009-1010 for F_U_Bi_i jet
> modulation curves and PAPER_1048 for phonon-corrected M-$\sigma$ relation.*

The SCm vacuum buoyancy partially opposes gravitational radiation pressure,
raising the effective Eddington luminosity:

$$L_{\text{Edd}}^{\text{UQFF}} = L_{\text{Edd}} \cdot \left(1 + \frac{\rho_{\text{SCm}} \cdot V \cdot S_{26}^{(3)\,2}}{G M / r_H^2}\right)$$

where:
- $L_{\text{Edd}} = 4\pi G M m_p c / \sigma_T$ is the classical Eddington luminosity
- $\rho_{\text{SCm}} = 7.09 \times 10^{-37}\;\text{J/m}^3$ is the SCm vacuum density
- $V$ is the effective buoyancy volume (accretion sphere)
- $S_{26}^{(3)\,2}$ is the squared third-order Ramanujan factor (quadratic coupling)
- $r_H$ is the horizon radius

**Jet modulation:** The Blandford--Znajek jet power acquires a phonon-coupled term:
$$P_{\text{jet}}^{\text{UQFF}} = P_{\text{BZ}} \cdot \left[1 + \beta_i \cdot \Phi_{1.25\,\text{THz}} \cdot \left(\frac{B}{B_{\text{crit}}}\right)^2\right]$$

where $\Phi_{1.25\,\text{THz}} = \cos(\omega_{\text{SCm}} \cdot t)$ modulates jet power at the phonon frequency.

**M--$\sigma$ correction (PAPER_1048):** The phonon-corrected M-$\sigma$ relation becomes
$M_{\text{BH}} \propto \sigma^{4+\delta}$ where $\delta = \beta_i \cdot S_{26}^{(3)} \cdot (\omega_{\text{SCm}}/\omega_{\text{bulge}})$.

### Session 225 Phonon-Physics Upgrade: SCm-Modified NFW Dark Matter Profile

> *Upgrade from PAPER_1015 (SCm Dark Matter Halos NFW) and PAPER_1019
> (Dark Matter Phonon Buoyancy NFW Coupling).*

The late-corpus analysis shows that the SCm phonon field modifies the NFW
density profile at all radii via a buoyancy-coupled power-law term:

$$\rho_{\text{UQFF}}(r) = \frac{\rho_s}{\left(\frac{r}{r_s}\right)\left(1+\frac{r}{r_s}\right)^2} \times \left[1 + H_{\text{SCm}} \cdot \beta_i \cdot S_{26}^{(3)} \cdot \left(\frac{r_s}{r}\right)^{\alpha_{\text{phonon}}}\right]$$

where:
- $\alpha_{\text{phonon}} = 0.3$ governs the radial decay of phonon coupling
- $\beta_i = 0.603$ is the universal buoyancy coefficient
- $S_{26}^{(3)}$ is the third-order Ramanujan summation
- $H_{\text{SCm}} = 0.99$ is the manifold completeness factor

**Rotation curve flattening:** The phonon enhancement produces flatter rotation curves
with flatness ratio $f = v_c(10\,r_s)/v_{\text{peak}} = 0.891$, compared to pure NFW
$f \approx 0.75$.  Peak circular velocity $v_{\text{peak}} \approx 204\;\text{km/s}$
for $M_{\text{halo}} = 10^{12}\,M_\odot$, $c = 10$.

**Halo stabilization:** The effective buoyancy pressure $P_{\text{SCm}} = \rho_{\text{SCm}} \cdot v_{\text{SCm}}^2 \cdot \beta_i$ prevents cusp-core divergence, providing a physical mechanism for observed cored profiles without invoking SIDM cross-sections.

### Session 225 Phonon-Physics Upgrade: ICM Buoyancy Force Profile

> *Upgrade from PAPER_1039 (SCm Galaxy Cluster Buoyancy Profile),
> PAPER_1041 (Cool-Core Buoyancy Balance), and PAPER_1079 (Cooling-Flow
> Suppression).  See also PAPER_1040 (Cluster Merger Shock), PAPER_1044
> (Thermal SZ Compton-y), PAPER_1046 (Cluster Lensing Mass).*

The SCm phonon field introduces a buoyancy force in the ICM that modifies
hydrostatic equilibrium:

$$F_{\text{buoy}}(r) = \rho(r) \cdot V \cdot g(r) \cdot \beta_i \cdot S_{26} \cdot \Phi$$

where the ICM density follows the beta-model:
$$\rho(r) = \rho_0 \left(1 + \left(\frac{r}{r_c}\right)^2\right)^{-3\beta/2}$$

**Hydrostatic mass bias reduction (PAPER_1039):**
$$b_{\text{UQFF}} = 1 - \frac{M_{\text{HSE}}}{M_{\text{true}}} = 0.17 \qquad \text{(vs standard } b = 0.20\text{)}$$

The buoyancy pressure contributes $P_{\text{buoy}}/P_{\text{thermal}} \approx 3\text{--}4\%$
at cluster cores, partially resolving the Planck SZ--CMB mass tension.

**Cool-core stabilization (PAPER_1041/1079):** AGN feedback couples to the SCm
buoyancy field via $\dot{M}_{\text{cool}} = \dot{M}_0 \cdot (1 - \beta_i \cdot S_{26}^{(3)} \cdot \Phi)$,
suppressing catastrophic cooling flows while maintaining observed X-ray luminosities.

**Phonon frequency coupling:** $\omega_{\text{SCm}} = 2\pi \times 1.25\;\text{THz}$ sets the temporal
scale for buoyancy oscillations; the ratio $\omega_{\text{SCm}}/\omega_{\text{sound}}$ governs
the phonon transmission efficiency across the ICM.

### Session 225 Phonon-Physics Upgrade: Yang-Mills BCS Phonon Mass Gap

> *Upgrade from PAPER_1318 (Yang-Mills Mass Gap via SCm BCS Phonon) and
> PAPER_1070 (Yang-Mills Mass Gap VDS Bridge).  See also PAPER_1004
> (QGP Vacuum Density), PAPER_1007 (Deconfinement Phase Diagram),
> PAPER_1059 (CGC BK Saturation), PAPER_1064 (Resummation BFKL/Sudakov).*

The late-corpus analysis derives the Yang-Mills mass gap via a BCS-like
phonon pairing mechanism in the SCm vacuum:

$$\Delta_{\text{YM}} = \Lambda_{\text{QCD}} \cdot \exp\!\left(-\frac{1}{\alpha_s(T) \cdot N_c}\right) \cdot S_{26}^{(3)}$$

where the running coupling evolves as:
$$\alpha_s(T) = \frac{\alpha_{s,0}}{1 + \alpha_{s,0} \cdot b_0 \cdot \ln(T/T_c)}, \qquad b_0 = \frac{11 N_c - 2 N_f}{12\pi}$$

**Physical mechanism:** The SCm phonon field ($\omega_{\text{SCm}} = 1.25\;\text{THz}$)
provides a pairing interaction analogous to the BCS electron-phonon coupling in
superconductors.  Gluons acquire an effective mass through condensate formation
in the SCm-modified vacuum, yielding a non-perturbative gap $\Delta_{\text{YM}} \approx 1.736\;\text{GeV}$ (PAPER_1318 integer-primitive closure; lattice QCD anchor 1.7 GeV; supersedes 1.736 GeV registry-bug value).

**VDS bridge (PAPER_1070):** The vacuum density series links the gap to the
26-level hierarchy: $\Delta \propto \rho_{\text{VDS}}^{1/4} \cdot (1 + [\text{SSq}] \cdot n/26)$
where the VDS sub-ratio 0.108 places confinement in the sub-threshold regime.

**QGP transition (PAPER_1004/1007):** At $T > T_c \approx 170\;\text{MeV}$, the phonon
coupling weakens ($\alpha_s \to 0$) and the gap closes, reproducing the
deconfinement phase transition observed at ALICE/LHC.











## §A. Cosmogenesis-Linked Lagrangian (PAPER_877 Symbolic Export)

### §A.1 Sector Classification

This paper maps to **BH-gravity** sector of the 9-sector UQFF Lagrangian (see
`uqff_lagrangian_derivation.py`).

### §A.2 Lagrangian Density

The sector Lagrangian density, linked to the PAPER_877 cosmogenesis master via the three reactive
quantum fundamentals (DPM, UA, SCm):

$$\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{sector}} = \frac{1}{2}(\partial_mu \phi_{\mathrm{BH}})(\partial^\mu \phi_{\mathrm{BH}}) - V(\phi_{\mathrm{BH}}) + \mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{cosmo}}$$

where $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{cosmo}} = \rho_{\mathrm{vac,[SCm]}} \cdot f_{\mathrm{SCm}} \cdot (1 - e^{-\gamma t})$ inherits the ACP 6-stage evolution (PAPER_877 §2) and:

$$V(\phi_{\mathrm{BH}}) = \frac{1}{2} m^2 \phi_{\mathrm{BH}}^2 + \frac{\lambda}{4!} \phi_{\mathrm{BH}}^4 + \kappa \cdot \rho_{\mathrm{vac,[SCm]}} \cdot \phi_{\mathrm{BH}}$$

### §A.3 Euler-Lagrange Equation of Motion

$$\boxed{\frac{\delta S}{\delta \phi_{\mathrm{BH}}} = R_{\mu\nu} - \tfrac{1}{2}g_{\mu\nu}R + \rho_{\mathrm{vac,[SCm]}} g_{\mu\nu} + F_U_Bi_i/r^2 = 0}$$

### §A.4 Cosmogenesis Linkage Chain

$$\text{PAPER\_877 Axioms} \xrightarrow{\text{DPM + ACP}} \rho_{\mathrm{vac}} = \rho_{\mathrm{UA}} + \rho_{\mathrm{SCm}} \xrightarrow{\text{Stage 5}} U_{b,\mathrm{seed}} \xrightarrow{\text{4 forces}} F_U_Bi_i \xrightarrow{\text{sector E-L}} \delta S/\delta \phi_{\mathrm{BH}} = 0$$

The chain traces from the three fundamental axioms (DPM proportion pair, ACP evolution, four U_g
forces) through vacuum density initialization to the sector-specific equation of motion. Every term
in the E-L equation inherits its physical origin from the cosmogenesis master.

## §B. VDS/DVP/BSH Deep Synthesis

### §B.1 Vacuum Density Series (VDS)

The canonical VDS ratio $\rho_{\mathrm{vac,[SCm]}} / \rho_{\mathrm{UA}} = 1.894$ governs the double-exponential vacuum condensate profile:

$$\rho_{\mathrm{vac}}(r) = \rho_{\mathrm{vac,[SCm]}} \cdot \exp\!\left(-\exp\!\left(-\frac{r - r_0}{\lambda_{\mathrm{VDS}}}\right)\right)$$

For this system, the local VDS sub-ratio is $0.069$ (near-threshold regime), placing it in the $t \to \pi$ collapse zone where the double-exponential transitions sharply from condensed to dilute vacuum. This threshold behavior connects to the PAPER_877 cosmogenesis Stage 1 vacuum density initialization: $\rho_{\mathrm{vac}} = \rho_{\mathrm{UA}} + \rho_{\mathrm{SCm}} = 7.799 \times 10^{-36}$ kg/m3.

### §B.2 Dipole Vortex Primes (DVP)

The DVP encoding maps the system's characteristic parameter onto the prime lattice:

$$p_{\mathrm{DVP}} = 61, \quad n_{\mathrm{channel}} = 12/26$$

Since $p_{\mathrm{DVP}} = 61$ is **resonant** (threshold at $p > 26$), the system's vacuum topology inherits resonant enhancement from the DVP lattice, amplifying UQFF coupling at specific radii where compressed matter achieves prime-indexed configurations. The DVP framework traces to PAPER_877 proto-nuclear shell formation: the DPM proportion pair $(f_{\mathrm{UA}}' + f_{\mathrm{SCm}} = 1)$ constrains which primes are accessible at each atomic number.

### §B.3 Buoyancy Saturation Harmonics (BSH)

The BSH saturation timescale for this sector is **106 M_BH/M_M_sun yr** (quasi-normal mode ringdown):

$$\mathcal{F}_{\mathrm{BSH}} = \sum_{j=1}^{26} \frac{1}{j} \cdot f_U_b \cdot \left(1 - e^{-[SSq] \cdot m/M_\odot}\right) \cdot \cos\!\left(\frac{2\pi j}{26}\right)$$

The $\tanh$ saturation envelope prevents unphysical divergence:

$$\mathcal{F}_{\mathrm{BSH,sat}} = \mathcal{F}_{\mathrm{BSH}} \cdot \left(1 - \tanh\!\left(\frac{t - t_{\mathrm{sat}}}{\tau_{\mathrm{BSH}}}\right)\right)$$

connecting to the PAPER_877 Stage 5 buoyancy seed $U_{b,\mathrm{seed}} = 0.1 \cdot (\hbar c/r^2) \cdot f_{\mathrm{SCm}}$ which initializes the harmonic series at cosmogenesis.
