# A concrete Standard-Model gauge representation, and a fully instantiated BRST charge

`BookProof.ChapterSmBrstGhost` proves that the Standard-Model BRST charge

```
Ω = Σ_a c^a G_a − ½ Σ f_{abc} c^a c^b b_c ,     G_a = −i dΓ(T_a)
```

is nilpotent *whenever* the twelve matter generators `T_a` close with the structure
constants `smStruct f₃` of `su(3) ⊕ su(2) ⊕ u(1)`.  This module removes the last hypothesis
that is a statement about a representation rather than about the Lie algebra: it builds a
**concrete** family of twelve generators — one coloured weak doublet, i.e. the internal
space `ℂ³ ⊗ ℂ²` of a quark multiplet at one plane-wave momentum, with hypercharge `y` —
and proves that it closes with exactly those structure constants.

## What is proved

* `pauli`, `su2gen` — the Pauli matrices and the `su(2)` generators `τ_k / 2`, with
  **`su2gen_closes`**: `[τ_j/2, τ_k/2] = i ε_{jkl} τ_l/2`, i.e. they close with the
  Levi-Civita structure constants `su2Struct` of `BookProof.ChapterSmBrstGhost`.
* `smGenP` — the twelve generators on the internal space `ℂ³ ⊗ ℂ²`: the eight gluon
  directions `T_a ⊗ 1`, the three weak directions `1 ⊗ τ_k/2` and the hypercharge `y·1`;
  **`smGenP_closes`** — they close with `sumStruct f₃ (sumStruct su2Struct u1Struct)`, the
  direct-sum structure constants (a bracket never leaves its summand, the colour and weak
  factors commute, and the hypercharge is central).
* `smGen` — the same twelve generators on the six matter modes `Fin 6 ≃ Fin 3 × Fin 2`, with
  **`smGen_closes`**: `ClosesWithStructureConstants (smGen S₃ y) (smStruct f₃)`.
* **`sm_brst_nilpotent_rep`** — the Standard-Model BRST charge of this concrete multiplet,
  on the eighteen-mode Fock space (six matter modes and twelve ghosts), squares to zero.
  Its only remaining inputs are the two defining relations of the `su(3)` generators
  themselves (`TraceOrthonormal`, `ClosesWithStructureConstants`), from which the
  antisymmetry and the Jacobi identity of `f₃` are *derived*, through
  `BookProof.YangMillsSU3.structureConstant_antisymm_swap` and
  `BookProof.YangMillsSU3.structureConstant_jacobi`.
* `sm_brst_nilpotent_of_su3_relations` — the same reduction of the hypotheses for an
  arbitrary matter representation.

## Honest boundary

The multiplet is one coloured weak doublet at one momentum: the mode set is finite, as in
`BookProof.ChapterSmBrstGhost`.  The `su(3)` generators enter through their two defining
relations rather than through the explicit Gell-Mann table, and nothing is claimed about the
size of the BRST cohomology.

Everything is `sorry`-free and `axiom`-free.
