Abstract
Two equations whose variables take values in the Pauli algebra of complex quaternions are shown to be equivalent to the standard Dirac equation and its Hermitian conjugate taken together. They are transformed one into the other by an outer automorphism of the Pauli algebra. Given a solution to the Dirac equation, a new solution is obtained by multiplying it on the right by one of the 16 matrices of the Pauli group. This defines a homomorphism from the Pauli group into the group of discrete symmetries, whose kernel is a cyclic group of order four. The group of discrete symmetries is shown to be the Klein four-group consisting of four elements: the identity Id; the charge conjugation symmetry C; the mass inversion symmetry M; and their composition in either order, CM = MC. The mass inversion symmetry inverts the sign of the mass, leaving the electric charge unchanged. The outer “bar-star” automorphism is identified with the parity operation, resulting in proof of CPT = M or, equivalently, CPTM = Identity.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 it
