The Lattice Field Medium: Parameter Manual

Technical reference manual specifying the four parameters of the Lattice Field Medium (LFM) governing equations. This document presents the complete derivation chain from physical inputs and axioms to parameter values.

Key Result: All four parameters (χ₀, κ, λ, ε_W) are derived from 9 discrete assumptions—no calibration constants remain.

The coupling constant κ = 1/63 is derived from mode counting in the minimal UV matching cell (N=4). The formula κ = 1/(4χ₀ − 13) is now explained: 4χ₀ − 13 = 4^D − 1 = 63 non-zero momentum modes at D=3.
