Description: Abstract The replication of fermion generations remains an open question in the Standard Model. We propose a framework where the fundamental geometry of spacetime is governed by an algebra isomorphic to the Split-Quaternions (H_). We argue that the irreducible representations of this algebra naturally motivate the Koide mass formula (Q=2/3) as a geometric null condition. Furthermore, demanding local gauge invariance in this geometry leads to a higher-derivative scalar dynamics. Based on this structure, we derive an intermediate effective scale M 11. 3 TeV, which satisfies a Generalized Veltman Condition for the cancellation of quadratic divergences. Crucially, we show that the metric signature required for the mass hierarchy mathematically implies a topological Berry phase of. We argue that this geometric feature allows the scalar progenitor to mimic Fermi statistics in the infrared limit. Finally, we show that this framework offers a quantitative candidate for the resolution of the proton radius puzzle (rₚ 0. 003 fm) and provides an electroweak oblique correction of the order required to explain the W-boson mass anomaly (mW 80. 357 GeV). Significance & Related Work This work presents a geometric derivation of the scale M 11. 3 TeV, which aligns with the dynamical derivation based on universal vacuum-energy cancellations presented in our companion paper: "Uniqueness of the Higher-Derivative Operator Class for Universal Vacuum-Energy Cancellations and Higgs Naturalness" (arXiv: 2512. 16955). The convergence of these two independent approaches—geometric (mass structure) and dynamical (vacuum stability) —onto a single energy scale suggests a robust underlying structure beyond the Standard Model.
