- <p>This paper synthesizes the coercivity and rigidity results developed in the preceding papers into a unified operator-theoretic framework. It shows that the Riemann Hypothesis follows as a consequence of spectral rigidity once the relevant coercivity conditions are established.</p> <p>The argument proceeds in four stages. First, a coercive quadratic form derived from the Riemann–Weil explicit formula is shown to diverge under the existence of any off-critical zero (<em>A Coercive Quadratic Form from the Riemann–Weil Explicit Formula</em>, Zenodo DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.18529291). Second, this coercivity mechanism is lifted to a uniform operator gap for the Báez–Duarte frame operator (<em>Uniform Coercivity for the Báez–Duarte Frame Operator</em>, Zenodo DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.18529293). Third, uniform coercivity is shown to force spectral confinement via canonical-system rigidity (<em>Energy Rigidity and Canonical Forcing of the Riemann Zeta Zeros</em>, Zenodo DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.18529295).</p> <p>Finally, these components are assembled into a closed implication chain: uniform coercivity implies resolvent positivity, which yields a Herglotz representation with support bounded away from zero; inverse spectral theory then forces the associated canonical Hamiltonian to be coercive, placing the system in the limit-point case and excluding non-real spectrum. Within the de Branges classification, the Riemann ξ-function appears as boundary spectral data, and its nontrivial zeros correspond to spectral points of the canonical system. Spectral confinement therefore, forces all nontrivial zeros onto the critical line.</p> <p>No step of the argument assumes the Riemann Hypothesis or any information about zero locations beyond unconditional results. All rigidity statements follow from standard operator and inverse spectral theory once uniform coercivity is granted. This paper records the final closure of the argument and isolates the unique remaining audit point: verification of the coercivity inequalities established earlier in the sequence.</p>
