A Conditional Reduction of the Riemann Hypothesis to Even Dominance of the Weil Quadratic Form

This paper presents a conditional reduction and diagnostic programme toward the Riemann Hypothesis via even dominance of the Weil quadratic form. It extracts the proof-relevant chain from a three-part Landscape series while making the remaining mathematical gap explicit. (i) External preprint inputs: the Connes--van Suijlekom quadratic-form real-zero criterion and Connes' Fact 6.4/Hurwitz bridge; (ii) Structural component: the Shift Parity Lemma and the Connes-vS single-shift asymmetry formula; (iii) Diagnostic evidence: 33 finite Landscape CAP values over 100 ≤ λ ≤ 1,300,000, currently not theorem-level because the odd-sector lower-bound construction remains open; (iv) Open internal bridge: the Asymptotic Variational Gap Conjecture, needed to lift variational frontier dominance to the eigenvalue ordering λ1+
