III. Geometrical optics of variable-frequency light rays in the general relativistic regime: Combined gravitational and refractive lensing
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The frequency-sensitive extremum principle for propagation of light rays in the geometrical optics regime is used to develop a nonperturbative method for tracing light rays in a transparent refractive medium in the general relativistic environment. The general formulation of the theory is given first; it allows for the numerical analysis of a nonlinear superposition of gravitational and refractive lensing, when neither of the two effects can be treated as a small perturbation. The scope of the general theory is gradually narrowed to the Schwarzschild field, the spherical symmetry of the refractive properties of the medium, and the small deflection regime approximation. A simple, analytically solvable example of deflection of light rays by a mass embedded in a refractive medium is considered in detail; in a vacuum, deflection of light rays by the Sun is reproduced.PACS Nos.: 42.15-i, 04.20-q, 98.90+s

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
