Ward Identity Checker

Verify GF(3) conservation as Ward identities across RG flow with Markov blanket separation.

Core Principle

Ward identities express symmetry conservation: Σ trit = 0 (mod 3) at every renormalization group (RG) level. Violations indicate "relevant operators" that break the symmetry.

Predicates

GF3Conserved(level)

GF3Conserved(L) := Σᵢ trit(cᵢ) ≡ 0 (mod 3)
  where cᵢ ∈ colors_at_level(L)

BlanketIntact(state)

BlanketIntact(s) := ∀ internal ∈ s.internal_states,
  ∃ blanket ∈ s.sensory_states ∪ s.active_states
  such that internal ⊥ external | blanket

NoLeakage(flow)

NoLeakage(f) := GF3Conserved(f.source) ∧ GF3Conserved(f.target)
  ∧ Σ trit(f.source) = Σ trit(f.target)

Ward Identity Check Protocol

def check_ward_identity(colors: list[str], level: int) -> dict:
    """Verify Σ trit = 0 at RG level."""
    trits = [hex_to_trit(c) for c in colors]
    total = sum(trits) % 3
    
    return {
        "level": level,
        "trit_sum": total,
        "conserved": total == 0,
        "violation_type": None if total == 0 else "relevant_operator",
        "correction_needed": (3 - total) % 3
    }

def hex_to_trit(hex_color: str) -> int:
    """Map hex to GF(3) via hue angle."""
    r, g, b = int(hex_color[1:3], 16), int(hex_color[3:5], 16), int(hex_color[5:7], 16)
    hue = compute_hue(r, g, b)
    return int(hue / 120) % 3  # 0-119 → 0, 120-239 → 1, 240-359 → 2

Violation Detection

When reafference check shows identity mismatch (prediction ≠ sensation):

Condition	Diagnosis	Action
GF3Conserved ∧ ¬BlanketIntact	Boundary leak	Reseal blanket
¬GF3Conserved ∧ BlanketIntact	Relevant operator	Add counterterm
¬GF3Conserved ∧ ¬BlanketIntact	Full symmetry break	RG flow unstable

Usage

# Via Gay.jl MCP

gay_markov_blanket --internal-seed 741086072858456200 --sensory-indices "1,2,3"

# Check conservation

Integration

• cybernetic-immune: Use Ward violations as non-self markers
• active-inference: Free energy ≈ Ward violation magnitude
• unworld: Color chain derivations must preserve Ward identity
