The Kottayil Triad: A Geometric Framework for Physical Reality, Observer Emergence, and Empirical Validation on Quantum Hardware

Version 2 — March 21, 2026 20 quantum hardware experiments on IBM ibm_fez (156-qubit Heron r2) and QuEra Aquila validating the Kottayil Triad geometric framework. Key results: - L=H=F isotropy confirmed 96.5% (Job d6v1blaf84ks73deqf60) - Berry phase 99.4% ground return (Job d6v22f0v5rlc73f4gsh0) - OTOC decay 0.456 maximal scrambling (Job d6v2m6469uic73cir6mg) - Triad QEC 99.5% beats standard 98.6% with 10x better symmetry - JT gravity thermal 0.007 to 0.935 confirmed (Job d6v49laf84ks73detghg) - SYK r=0.4823 intermediate chaos SFF ramp confirmed - Bell CHSH Triad S=2.539 exceeds standard S=2.507 - 333 QNN XOR 100% accuracy Love-Hope-Fear architecture - Radiation shielding isotropy 0.974 vs dipole 0.281 - 18/18 null hypotheses rejected p
