Transport Papers T17. The Transport Programme: Method, Status, and the Falsifiable Ledger.

T17 of the Transport Papers. Version 1.0. 26 pages. Epistemic status: survey. This capstone surveys the Transport Papers, eighteen papers, the primer T0 and the research papers T1 to T17, built on one principle: division by zero in a Clifford algebra is not a prohibition but a forced transport of the description into a minimally completed higher algebra. The series carries that principle from pure algebra (the no-go, the taxonomy, the tower, the sheaf theory) through the black hole (folded light cones to the Page envelope), the companions (the weighted limit, the Hawking spectrum, the boundary mode space, twistors, the frozen point's action), the matter programme (mass, the Standard Model, families, dark towers, neutrinos), and the synthesis (one relation, two shadows). Three things gathered here lie in no single series paper. First, the method: seventeen natural conjectures attempted, sixteen refuted and one placed, each failure locating a better statement one level up, tabulated against the papers that now prove the corrected statements. Second, the status: every paper's payload, epistemic tier, and machine-verified check count in one table, 1616 exact checks across sixteen companion scripts. Third, the falsifiable claims: six registered stances and six conditional absences, each with its dataset, current confrontation, and refutation condition, and the descent measure they leave over: two numbers and one bit, the weak scale's unit still open. The survey's script audits page counts against the companion PDFs, check counts against the counts the companion papers record, and the tables against one another. Nothing here is verified by publication; the claim table is where refutation should begin. Position in the series: Within the series it relies on T00, T01, T02, T03, T04, T05, T06, T07, T08, T09, T10, T11, T12, T13, T14, T15, T16. The series is surveyed in T17, The Transport Programme, whose status table records every paper's tier and check count. Verification: verify_T17.py is an audit rather than a computation. It reads the page count of every sibling PDF and the check count each sibling paper records, and checks the survey's tables against them and against one another (74 checks). It imports GA.py, deposited alongside. Files: T17_transport_programme.pdf; T17_transport_programme.tex; verify_T17.py; GA.py; LICENSE-CODE.txt. Licence: the paper (PDF and LaTeX source) is CC BY 4.0.

The founding idea of the series is the author's: that division by zero in a Clifford algebra should be read not as a prohibition but as a transport into a higher-dimensional algebra, and that the transported division need not be accompanied by an inverse operation. The direction of investigation and the critical review of the results are likewise the author's. The mathematical development and the drafting of the text were carried out in extended collaboration with Claude Fable 5 (Anthropic), an AI system.
