Conditional Proof of Categoricity of τ_0

Conditional proof of Categoricity of τ_0 (THM0009). Completes the categoricity argument under the named bridge axiom (AXM0001 bridge-functor- exists). Without that bridge, the proof reduces to a sketch.

Payload

Conditional proof. This proof depends on AXM0001 (bridge-functor-exists) being discharged. Under that axiom, categoricity of τ_0 follows from the universal property of the τ-Kernel construction plus the rigidity of τ (THM0008).

Without the bridge axiom, this proof is a sketch.

Conditional proof. This proof depends on explicit unresolved assumptions and should not be read as complete until those assumptions are discharged.

The categoricity argument is complete *conditional* on the bridge functor F: τ-Cat → Orth-Cat existing (AXM0001). Without that axiom discharged, the proof is a sketch; with it, categoricity follows.

Proof steps

  1. Universal property setup.

    Establish the universal property of τ_0 from the τ-Kernel construction (see THM0001 for the master constant anchoring the calibration).

  2. Bridge functor invocation (conditional).

    Under the bridge-functor-exists axiom AXM0001, the universal property reflects through F into the orthodox category, fixing the τ_0 representation uniquely.

  3. Categoricity follows.

    From s1 + s2 + the rigidity of τ (THM0008), categoricity of τ_0 is established up to canonical isomorphism.
