Mathematical Content

Coherence Horizon

The coherence horizon M_n* is the critical mass at which the GR tension functional’s minimum shifts from the S^2 topology branch to the T^2 topology branch. Below M_n, neutron stars (approximate S^2 boundary) are the stable configuration. Above M_n, the torus vacuum (T^2) is energetically preferred.

Phase Transition

At M = M_n*, the defect cost of maintaining S^2 topology equals the defect cost of transitioning to T^2. This is a genuine phase boundary in the configuration space of tau-admissible defect bundles.

Surface Boundary Condition

The matter character at the stellar surface must satisfy a specific boundary condition: T^mat(R_surface) = 0. This determines the stellar radius as a function of total mass.
