The Standard Model as a Certified Attribute Grammar: Feynman rules as compiler phases on an [8,4,4] record alphabet
David Elliman · Neuro-Symbolic Ltd · 3 July 2026
Summary and scope
An attribute grammar organises supplied particle types and interaction rules, with type checks for allowed vertices and charge identities. It formalises a chosen particle model; it does not derive the Standard Model gauge group, generations, statistics, couplings or masses from a code. Restrictions on a fourth generation or sterile readout are properties of the declared grammar. The contribution is a way to represent and check those rules, with the code and physical assignments explicit.
