Comparison with the mass gap
The Confinement Theorem addresses why quarks are confined; the complementary result -- why the strong sector has a mass gap (no massless gluon states) -- is derived via the tau-Gap Meta-Theorem in ch40.

Claim boundary
This page reports a Registry-backed internal result surface. It is not an external validation claim, a scientific consensus claim, or independent acceptance.
Curation rationale
- physics-facing terms: mass
- candidate is better handled as evidence for an inferred existing public surface
