Leptonic CP Conservation and the Quark CP Phase from Octonionic Flavor Structure
Abstract
One generation of standard-model fermions can be realized on the complexified octonions through the Clifford algebra Cl(6); the octonionic unification programme extends this to three generations, with generation transport implemented by G2 automorphisms or by rotors built from the ladder operators. We prove a localization theorem for the CP-violating phases of this structure, using only the Cl(6) construction and the stated three-generation representatives, independently of the wider programme. For quarks, the first-to-second generation step is the occupation flip of one ladder mode, with the up and down species coupling to conjugate ladder directions; a conjugation theorem forces Ad=Au* for every real transport, and the most general rung-generated rotor yields the exact one-parameter law ϕ12=-2χ: the (1,2) transport phase is twice one Yukawa orientation angle. The programme's geometric rotor sits exactly at the quadrature-balanced point |ϕ12|=π/2; the companion analysis reproduces the Cabibbo magnitude |Vus| with a single real tilt, leaving the rung near quadrature, but it does not extract a CKM CP phase, so the quark Dirac phase is fixed only once the underlying Yukawa orientation is computed. For leptons we prove a reality theorem: every charged-lepton and every neutrino transport amplitude is exactly real for every G2 automorphism and every rotor that does not mix the identity line C·1 with the lepton--flavor plane span(e7,e5,e2) a class that contains the entire quark-rung family--and identity--flavor mixing across that plane is the unique possible source of a leptonic phase.
