Description This volume extends the Re-Phase grammar from linear and algebraic admissible structures to function spaces and operator equations, continuing the admissible-fiber framework of Vol. 3. 1–3. 2. The primitive remains the compatibility condition. An operator equation is not treated here as a solver problem, nor primarily as an observation. It is treated as a compatibility condition imposed on a function candidate. Given an operator (L: D (L) X Y) and a prescribed condition value (o Y), the operator condition (Lf=o) cuts an admissible fiberAₒ=f D (L) Lf=o. The main new discipline in the operator setting is that the condition is not imposed on all of (X), but on the operator domain (D (L) X). Thus, the kernel, fiber, quotient, and descent statements must be read inside the domain where the operator is defined. Boundary conditions are treated as additional compatibility conditions. They refine the operator fiber, remove ambiguity, or collapse the admissible set. For linear boundary compatibility, the block operator (L f= (Lf, f) ) satisfies L= L, so boundary compatibility shrinks the ambiguity directions from (L) to (L) when the refined fiber is nonempty. Recoverability is evaluated over the remaining function fiber, not merely at a selected representative. For a linear feature map (h: X Z), unique feature recoverability over a nonempty linear operator fiber is characterized by L h. This is the operator-domain analogue of the quotient/descent condition developed in Vol. 3. 1. Observation is treated only as a derived interpretation: some operator conditions can be interpreted as observations, but observation is not the primitive of this volume. Likewise, transformations are handled by lifting the candidate space to path space, where transition equations become compatibility conditions on trajectories. Re-Phase does not replace operator theory, functional analysis, boundary value theory, or regularization theory. It stages operator problems as compatibility and recoverability structures: operator condition → admissible function fiber → residual ambiguity → feature recoverability → quotient/descent → enrichment → path-space continuation.
