# Session Context — General Relativity  
### TriadicFrameworks /docs/theories/general_relativity/session_context.md

General Relativity (GR) in TriadicFrameworks is treated as a **geometric
coherence theory of gravity**, not a force model and not a metaphorical
“rubber sheet” theory. GR describes how **coherent curvature structures**
govern motion, signals, and causal structure across spacetime.

This session context establishes the identity, drift boundaries, regime
behavior, and audience alignment for the General Relativity module.

---

## Canon  
General Relativity is framed as a **coherence‑geometry theory** in which:

- curvature is a **structural operator**  
- geodesics are **coherence‑preserving trajectories**  
- stress‑energy is a **source of geometric deformation**  
- gravity is **coherent curvature**, not a force  

GR is compatible with RTT, NoS, LDS, and FFT.

---

## Modules  
General Relativity participates in the following module lineage:

- **Upstream:** Spacetime Geometry, Differential Structure, LDS  
- **Lateral:** QFT (curved backgrounds), Thermodynamics (horizon regimes), Information Theory (causal distinctions)  
- **Downstream:** Cosmology, Black Hole Physics, Gravitational Waves  

GR is a **mid‑level geometric module** with strong cross‑module
propagation.

---

## Drift  
Drift must be strictly avoided:

- **No force metaphors** (“gravity pulls things”)  
- **No rubber‑sheet analogies**  
- **No Newtonian fallback**  
- **No semantic drift** (“gravity is a property of mass”)  
- **No pop‑science collapse** (“time slows because gravity”)  

GR = **coherent curvature**, not force, not metaphor.

---

## Coherence  
Coherence in GR is:

- curvature stability  
- geodesic consistency  
- causal structure preservation  
- tensorial invariance  
- regime‑compatible geometry  

A GR system is coherent when curvature, stress‑energy, and geodesics
remain structurally aligned.

## Version  
**1.0 — geometric‑coherence, operator‑ready, regime‑aligned.**

Compatible with RTT/1, RTT/2, RTT/3.

## Front door  
The front door for this module is:

`/docs/theories/general_relativity/frontdoor.md`

This session context is the **identity anchor** for all subpages.

---

## Every page  
Every page in this module must be:

- standalone  
- curvature‑first  
- coherence‑aligned  
- operator‑aware  
- regime‑compatible  
- zero drift  
- student‑parsable  
- AI‑parsable  

No page may use force metaphors or rubber‑sheet analogies.

---

## Audience  
This module is written for:

- students  
- researchers  
- theorists  
- engineers  
- AI agents  

It is designed to be **immediately teachable**, **structurally clear**,
and **canon‑consistent**.

## Summary  
General Relativity in TriadicFrameworks is:

- a **geometric coherence theory**  
- a **curvature‑operator framework**  
- a **regime‑aware spacetime model** (R0 → R3)  
- a **cross‑module backbone** for cosmology, QFT, and gravitational
  physics  

It is **not**:

- a force theory  
- a rubber‑sheet analogy  
- a Newtonian limit with corrections  
- a semantic or metaphysical model  

Gravity = **coherent curvature**.  
Geodesics = **coherence trajectories**.  
Spacetime = **a geometric operator field**.
