Abstract
Abstract In this paper, we provide a comprehensive study of asymptotically flat spacetime in even dimensions <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" overflow="scroll"> <mml:mrow> <mml:mi>d</mml:mi> <mml:mtext>⩾</mml:mtext> <mml:mn>4</mml:mn> </mml:mrow> </mml:math> . We analyze the most general boundary condition and asymptotic symmetry compatible with Penrose’s definition of asymptotic null infinity <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" overflow="scroll"> <mml:mrow> <mml:mrow> <mml:mrow> <mml:mi mathvariant="script">I</mml:mi> </mml:mrow> </mml:mrow> </mml:mrow> </mml:math> through conformal compactification. Following Penrose’s prescription and using a minimal version of the Bondi–Sachs gauge, we show that <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" overflow="scroll"> <mml:mrow> <mml:mrow> <mml:mrow> <mml:mi mathvariant="script">I</mml:mi> </mml:mrow> </mml:mrow> </mml:mrow> </mml:math> is naturally equipped with a Carrollian stress tensor whose radial derivative defines the asymptotic Weyl tensor. This analysis describes asymptotic infinity as a stretched horizon in the conformally compactified spacetime. We establish that charge aspects conservation can be written as Carrollian Bianchi identities for the asymptotic Weyl tensor. We then provide a covariant renormalization for the asymptotic symplectic potential, which results in a finite symplectic flux and asymptotic charges. The renormalization scheme works even in the presence of logarithmic anomalies.

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
