#!/usr/bin/env python3 """ D11: K_eff Crisis Activation Test Paper 2 (CES Potential), Theorem 4: K_eff = K*(1-T/T*)+ predicts that complementarity curvature K degrades as systemic friction T rises. When T ~ 0 (normal times), K_eff ≈ K (full curvature, maximal buffering). When T → T* (crisis), K_eff → 0 (buffering vanishes). Lean: CESProofs/Potential/Defs.lean, effectiveCurvatureKeff. Friction proxy: Product-level Herfindahl of HS2 trade shares for each bilateral pair. Higher H → lower K → lower K_eff → less crisis buffering. Theory link: K(rho,a) = (1-rho)(1-H). Sub-tests: D11a: H*crisis interaction significant and negative (pooled DID) D11b: H slope MORE negative during crises than normal (mean comparison) D11c: H slope negative and significant during crises D11d: Binary DID with pair + episode fixed effects D11e: VIX as continuous T proxy (robustness) Data: data/compiled/baci_hs2_oecd.csv (BACI bilateral trade by HS2 chapter) Review Notes (2026-03-12, v6) ----------------------------- Theory match: CORRECT — Paper 2, K_eff = K*max(0, 1-T/T*)+. Lean: effectiveCurvatureKeff in CESProofs/Potential/Defs.lean (REAL PROOF). All 5 theorems real proofs. D11a (DID): H*crisis interaction negative → concentrated portfolios hurt more in crises. D11b (magnitude): crisis |β_H| > normal |β_H| → K_eff degrades under stress. D11c (crisis slope): β_H < 0 during crises → K_eff mechanism active. I/O audit: CORRECT — Herfindahl H proxies inverse K (high H = concentrated = low K). Crisis dummy proxies elevated T. Log trade change is outcome. No confusion. Data-signal alignment: ADEQUATE — BACI HS2 bilateral trade (OECD, N=13,472 pair-episodes). H is product-level Herfindahl (REASONABLE proxy for 1-K). Crisis classification is coarse binary when T is continuous, but DID handles this. Code quality: CLEAN — cluster-robust SEs (CR1) by bilateral pair implemented v4. v6: 7 non-overlapping normals (removed 1996-97, 2004-05, 2013-14 year overlap). 3 crisis episodes (Ukraine/Supply Chain excluded: supply-side shock β_H=-0.15). D11d: pair + episode FE on binary DID. D11e: VIX as continuous T proxy. NFCI continuous subtests (old D11d-f) tested v5 and REMOVED: proxy failure (NFCI=-0.55 during Trade Wars, -0.36 COVID; only GFC registers). Confidence: MEDIUM (D11a — marginal, p=0.089), HIGH (D11c — 3/3), TBD (D11d, D11e) Known limitations: Some "normal" periods have H-slopes as negative as crises, suggesting the K_eff mechanism is persistent. VIX captures GFC + COVID but NOT Trade Wars (11-16 = normal range).
