The Total Torsion Identity and Foam Equilibration Timescale
Abstract
Two exact results from the dihedral angles of the truncated octahedron. First: the total torsion identity 24θ_sh + 12θ_hh = F_sq × 2π = 12π, equivalently 2θ_sh + θ_hh = π per fermion triangle (algebraic proof). This identity gives spin-1/2 as Wilson loop flux π/(2π). Second: the foam equilibration timescale τ = (9+√17)/32 × t_P ≈ 0.41 Planck times from the spectral gap of the face Laplacian. Part LI of the Unified Foam Field Theory.
