abstract: >-
  A geometric framework that derives fundamental physical constants 
  from exceptional Lie algebra structure (G₂, F₄, E₆, E₇, E₈) and 
  Hopf fibration topology. Five predictions match experiment within 
  measurement uncertainty; the sixth (genus-2 superconductor mass 
  anomaly) provides a decisive falsifiable test.
