Identity tracks a time-dependent invariant sector through changing carriers and representations.
$$ X_t\to A_t\to P_t\to U_tP_tU_t^\dagger\to P_{t+1} $$
The formal engine is the Transported Identity Projector (TIP). The public lab name is Identity.
$$ P_{t+1}\overset{?}{\approx}U_tP_tU_t^\dagger $$
A low transport residual indicates that the selected invariant sector persists through admissible change. Rank changes are treated as birth/death events rather than exact unitary transport.
