The Finite Gap: BSD at Rank 2 Reduces to Finiteness of Sha Copy

We compile the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer invariants of the elliptic curve 389a1 — the smallest-conductor curve of rank 2 — using a uniform computational pipeline that treats all ranks identically. Every quantity entering the BSD formula at rank 2 (the L-function derivative L''(E,1), the real period Ω, the regulator R, the torsion order, and the Tamagawa product) is unconditionally computable from proved ingredients: modularity, the functional equation, and the Néron–Tate height pairing. The regulator is computed independently by two methods: analytically from L''(E,1)/2Ω, and algebraically from the canonical height pairing on the known Mordell–Weil generators. Their ratio gives |Sha| = 1.0000003, and since…
