Expanding RHS of (6), Dvκ = 0 from (2). That is, vκ passes through the exterior derivative leaving:

The ”Rund structure equation” relates the covariant derivative of the torsion to curvature:

The sectional curvature (Gaussian curvature )of the dual surface in the rest frame of the test charge
is (Ringermacher, Mead - JMP 05):

Let Q = ne be the source charge in terms of the fundamental charge e.
Let −κ e be the positive definite fundamental unit of length.
Defining the unit sphere through the r-integration, Eq. (11) becomes :
1 −κ e 1
−κ e ∫0

The integral ∫K

1 − g dx 2 dx 3 = 4π (1 − P ) is the Gauss-Bonnet invariant. (13)
P is the “Genus” or number of “handles” of the surface. Thus, from (12), n = 1 − P is an integer.
Thus, charge has been identified as a topological property, the Genus of the surface surrounding the
singularity at the origin.
