  "abstract": "In the ZEBTS‑SUPER framework (Zero‑Entropy Background Topological Structure under chi‑variational optimization), the dimensionless fine‑structure constant inverse alpha^{-1} ≈ 137.035999 is not an empirical fitting parameter, but a topological‑spectral invariant. We prove that k = 137 is the unique discrete index of the eigenvalue lambda_137 of an unbounded, self‑adjoint chi‑operator D_chi(zeta) acting on the Hilbert space H_chi. This specific mode simultaneously minimizes the gauge‑information tension tensor T_inf and stabilizes Tomita–Takesaki modular dynamics sigma_t^chi at a finite characteristic scale T_chi(137). From this operator‑theoretic foundation, we present an analytical derivation of alpha, a numerical finite‑difference calculation of lambda_137 achieving 10^{-6} agreement, and a rigorous proof of electromagnetic vacuum stability. We delineate verifiable experimental signatures including hydrogen hyper‑fine shifts, QED vertex corrections, electron anomalous magnetic moment deviations (delta g_chi ~ 10^{-12}), and strong‑field Schwinger threshold corrections.
