# Large-scale fragility study: cross-paradigm report

## Claim scope (mandatory)

- Uncertainty channels: gas/electricity unit_price trajectories only.
- Response metric: fixed-first-stage expected TAC.
- Fragility construct: primary: second-order/convexity sign of multi-delta response around per-design nominal anchor; secondary: asymmetry shares and F_s.
- GSA: PAWN only (raw TAC and re-anchored F_s); Sobol exploratory/omitted.
- epsilon_exc threshold: 0.05.
- Tier: final_lite; namespaces pooled: 44.

## Completeness gate

- Claim status: **complete**.
- Active paradigms: antifragile, regret, robust, stochastic.

## Headline: multi-delta curvature (self-anchored)

## GSA drivers (PAWN, grouped to trajectory factors)

Two responses: raw stressed TAC (in-run, anchor-independent) and re-anchored F_s (offline). Sobol is omitted (invalid on these non-Saltelli designs).
- vone/antifragile raw-TAC top: gas_S1=0.249, gas_S2=0.243, gas_S3=0.241
- vone/regret raw-TAC top: gas_S1=0.247, gas_S2=0.241, gas_S3=0.239
- vtwo/regret raw-TAC top: gas_S1=0.247, gas_S2=0.242, gas_S3=0.237
- vone/robust raw-TAC top: gas_S1=0.247, gas_S2=0.241, gas_S3=0.238
- vtwo/robust raw-TAC top: gas_S1=0.247, gas_S2=0.242, gas_S3=0.238
- vone/stochastic raw-TAC top: gas_S1=0.249, gas_S2=0.243, gas_S3=0.240
- vtwo/stochastic raw-TAC top: gas_S1=0.246, gas_S2=0.242, gas_S3=0.238

## Caveats (mandatory)

- Sobol indices are not reported; they are invalid on OAT/default designs (require Saltelli sampling).
- The response metric is expected TAC, not each paradigm's own objective (worst-case / max-regret).
- Degeneracy: variant_two regret~stochastic (design rel diff 3.57e-05); pairwise claims withdrawn.
