Artian Action-Rotor Reference Framework: Hamilton's Stationary-Action Recovery, the Real-J Path Sum, and the Capacity/Canonical Action Ledger

One Phase Turn, Three Different Ledgers Version: 3.0 Concept DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.20098143 Author: Ali Attar Website: quantumtraction.org Main book: Quantum Traction Theory: Main Book v10.01 A unit quantum phase can be written entirely with a real two-component rotor, \[ R_J(θ)=cosθ\,I+sinθ\,J, J^2=-I, R_J(θ_2)R_J(θ_1)=R_J(θ_1+θ_2). \] Version 3.0 asks what this exact representation does and does not imply for action. Its central result is a typed separation of winding degree, canonical phase action, and positive capacity spend: \[ { ν_A=1/2π∮ dθ∈ Z, Scan=2πν_A, C_A=∑_j|νA,j| } \] For one funded primitive completion, \[ { |ν_A|=1, C_A=, |Scan|=2π=h, {C_A}{|Scan|}=1/2π } \] The factor \(1/(2π)\) is the normalized circle generator that converts angular holonomy into integer winding. The dimensionful A6 capacity token is a separate physical input. An explicit degree-two countermodel, \[ U_2(s)=R_J(4π s), U_2(0)=U_2(1)=I, ν_A[U_2]=2, \] shows that compactness and endpoint closure do not select one primitive turn. Primitive funding is A6 content, not a hidden consequence of (SO(2)). With the action-phase bridge, short-time kernel, measure, endpoints, and convergence hypotheses printed explicitly, the time-sliced laboratory shadow is \[ K_J(x_f,T_f x_i,T_i) = ∫ Dslicex\; R_J\!({Scan[x]}{}). \] The stationary-action limit is controlled by variation of phase across a history family, not by a large constant offset: \[ {Scan[γ_ε]}{} =Θ_0+λ f(ε), λ1 δ Scan=0. \] This yields the standard Euler-Lagrange equations under the usual regularity and nondegeneracy conditions. The same framework records the exact real-(J) form of the Feynman pole prescription, the clock-reparametrized action, gauge holonomy without double counting, and a bounded A6 spectral-window class whose detailed profile remains a separate source theorem.
