The Holographic Circlette: Part 11 — Spectral Graph Energy, Absolute Nucleon Mass, and the Parameter-Free Baryon Octet

Audit note. This paper predates the framework's methodology audit of 2026-05-30. Two recharacterisations apply: (i) §15 item 142: the baryon sector is now characterised as ``De Rújula--Georgi--Glashow constituent quark model in substrate clothing'' --- the coefficients A = -7w/8 and B = 4w implement the same chromomagnetic-hyperfine operator A _{i We derive the absolute nucleon mass M0=2*sqrt (2) *LambdaQCD~939 MeV from spectral graph theory of C8. Electromagnetic contributions are quantised in multiples of the bit-weight w. Coefficients A=-7w/8 and B=4w are derived from 4. 8. 8 geometry. The formula reproduces baryon octet mass splittings with zero parameters. 2026-06-20 legacy erratum: This version adds a canon erratum note to the legacy paper. Baryon octet/spectroscopy mostly held; update status The body is preserved as a historical derivation trail; the erratum note identifies the current ANCHOR/DRIFT status and superseded claims. 2026-06-21 canon refresh: This version incorporates the 2026-06-21 ANCHOR/DRIFT/PTMS canon refresh and rebuilt local PDF.
