Analysis extends conductor rigidity to prime quadruplets, revealing key structural insights and implications.
We extend the conductor rigidity framework to prime quadruplets (P, P+2, P+6, P+8) by constructing a genus-4 hyperelliptic curve C_P : y² = x(x²−P²)(x²−(P+2)²)(x²−(P+6)²)(x²−(P+8)²). We prove four unconditional results: (1) the odd involution x → −x induces an order-4 automorphism over K = Q(√−1) whose eigenspace decomposition yields, by the Kani-Rosen theorem, an isogeny Jac(C_P) ⊗ K ~ A × A^σ for a 2-dimensional abelian variety A over K; (2) the discriminant contains five multiplicative conduits at P+1, P+3, P+4, P+5, P+7, determined by the combinatorics of the admissible pattern (0,2,6,8), with a double conduit of toric rank 2 at P+4 where two independent root pairs collide; (3) the 8-dimensional ℓ-adic Galois representation factors through the Weil restriction ResK/Q(A); (4) the Sato-Tate group is confined to (USp(4) × USp(4)) ⋊ Z/2 ⊂ USp(8), a proper subgroup of codimension 16. We conjecture that the five-fold descent obstruction, constrained by the Asai transfer structure, provides a representation-theoretic explanation for the rarity of prime quadruplets as predicted by the Hardy-Littlewood singular series. This is the sixth and final paper in a series. See also:[1] R. Chen, "Conductor Incompressibility for Frey Curves Associated to Prime Gaps," Zenodo, 2026. https://zenodo.org/records/18682375[2] R.
