Abstract

The Comparative Invariant Benchmark Suite v1.0 is a frozen, researcher‑grade artifact within the Standard Coherence Fidelity Layer (SCFL) program. Its purpose is to provide a neutral, reproducible testbed for evaluating whether proposed invariants, operators, or organizing principles exhibit measurable stability, drift, or failure across controlled comparative scenarios. This suite defines: A canonical set of invariants drawn from SCFL’s Tier‑1, Tier‑2, and Tier‑3 measurement classes A structured battery of comparative tests designed to expose deformation, motion, and instability signatures A seam‑defined execution protocol ensuring that all comparisons are performed under identical, replayable conditions A falsification‑first posture, enabling researchers to reject invariants that fail to maintain coherence under stress, perturbation, or cross‑domain transfer A standardized summary‑row output format, allowing results to be aggregated, replicated, and archived across institutions The benchmark suite is domain‑agnostic and can be applied to institutional, financial, infrastructural, or synthetic environments. It is designed to support early‑stage scientific validation of invariants before they are considered for broader adoption or integration into SCFL’s higher‑tier measurement architecture. This artifact is frozen as v1.0, with all parameters locked ex‑ante to prevent post‑hoc tuning. Future versions will expand the invariant library, incorporate additional comparative regimes, and integrate results from Tier‑0.5 demonstration cases.
