Source-correction unit SC-26 of the #942 audit (gate #946). Base: main 55e3217b, the merged #955 tree. Head: 64c20e7e.

Review history:

Commit What it is Review verdict
7c117827 first draft ACCEPT WITH CHANGES
8d8ca8c6 applies that review ACCEPT WITH CHANGES; confirmed the earlier fixes, the GR :591 paper proof and SM :112
72eece11 applies the re-review confirmation: ACCEPT WITH CHANGES (four short ceiling sites, plus the owner ruling on ch15 :134)
64c20e7e applies the confirmation —

main has moved. It is now at 4449b0d9, after #958 (SC-27) merged. A test merge resolves every .md automatically. Only generated .tex/.pdf conflict: Main, GR, SM and the FULL book. Reconciliation (merge main, regenerate with sh ./build.sh, then check that the landing equals this PR's own diff) is pending a decision on timing, because it moves the head.

Each residual site that stated P-indivisibility, backflow, a Bell mechanism, a numerical gain or an unconditional ceiling beyond what the corpus proves now states the strongest proved result. Three notions are kept apart:

  1. Conditional memory. M_t, or the readback-lemma lower bound, on accessible windows; (C4) supplies it.
  2. Recurrence-cycle P-indivisibility. On a finite reversible representative, wherever a rooted visible map is not a permutation.
  3. Backflow. A revival of distinguishability. It certifies P-indivisibility on the window, and C1–C4 do not supply it.

No change, with reasons:

  • "backflow-aware" protocol names: the name states the protocol's target.
  • ch01 :282: the swap genuinely revives distinguishability.
  • ch01 :201: it follows Main :532.
  • Main :622 and Explainer :143/:352: already correct.
  • Bioinformatics :84: an RNA-velocity regime reading, not the ceiling.
  • Bioinformatics :475, :517, :537: already conditional, or about multi-modal methods.

Excluded, belonging to other units:

  • SC-22: ch15 :20, :103, :142–:212, :226 and the "Five quantitative predictions" heading; ch13 :134–:144 and the last sentence of ch13 :80; ch18 :74–:92; Complexity :488's O(τ_S/τ_B) amplitude heuristic and :492.
  • SC-28: SM :1211.
  • Explainer :767: a separate item.

Findings 4 and 6

GR :591, option (a): the argument is stated in the text.

  1. On a finite representative of the constraint surface, invariant under φ, φ is a permutation of finite order L.
  2. With the hidden prior on each root's fiber, the rooted maps K_t are square stochastic matrices on the visible values the surface admits, and K_{mL} = I for m ≥ 0.
  3. K_s Λ = K_{mL} with mL > s would make Λ a stochastic right inverse of K_s.
  4. Then K_s is a permutation, by the stochastic-inverse lemma (Main :133; isPermMatrix_of_stochastic_inverse).
  5. No visible prior enters. C1 is taken from Main :74.

The re-review confirmed the argument.

SM :112.

  • SM :106 makes (x₀(t−1), x₀(t)) a coordinate projection.
  • For L ≥ 4, the hidden x_{L−1}(t) is independent of the other terms, so each row of T is uniform over q values.
  • An exact integer/Fraction enumeration (python3 -I -B, not committed) covered (4,2), (4,3) and (5,2). In each case φ is a bijection, T is not a permutation, and the rows are uniform.
  • Two countercontrols give permutations: the full state visible, and a variant in which site 0 is decoupled.
  • Result: ALL CONTROLS GREEN. Script sha256 26d5fb4a…; output sha256 511ff827….

Checks (at 64c20e7e)

  • Builds. sh ./build.sh succeeds for every touched paper and for --book, with no dropped glyphs.
  • Release gate. Every step passes except lean-axioms, which needs lake and is absent locally. Coverage is OK at 128 statements, with no fingerprint changed. mirror reports 0 lines absent, and claims passes.
  • Edge probe. edge_rigidity_probe.py reports ALL CHECKS PASS.
  • Scans. The §A.32/§A.33 added-lines scan is clean; its one hit is the pre-existing "methodological discipline". The secret scan is clean.
  • Re-grep, 0 hits: "factor-of-three", "structurally calculable", "made empirically manifest", "predicts and explains", "would compete with", "can be made quantitatively explicit", "three to ten", "SQUID-competitive", "concrete numerical predictions", "no transcriptome-only model can exceed", "Indivisibility instead identifies", "The converse is retired", "no-go theorem", and the earlier phrase lists.

Correctness bands unchanged: every edit narrows a claim to its proved scope, and SM :112 states a property proved for the stated partition.

…ss companions and book

Narrows the remaining sites that stated P-indivisibility, backflow or a Bell
mechanism beyond what Main proves, each to the strongest proved statement:

- Structure (abstract, :31, :90, :513, :752, :836, :903, :1025, :1306):
  the third audit feature is memory/divisibility; the memory mechanism
  transports, P-indivisibility is not established cross-framework (§14.3,
  §14.5 are the anchors).
- Complexity §7.3/§7.6/§8.7-§8.9: readback lemma as a lower bound; protein
  application rests on the §7.2 model-independent consequence; memory-bearing
  design; backflow conditional on revival of distinguishability; NV figure
  marked heuristic.
- Bioinformatics :138: ceiling attributed to the hidden-memory theorem and
  predictive-quotient fiber freedom; the GRN-in-fibers question open.
- Main :131 (non-permutation T, C1 at first step), :620 (Bell checks C1 on
  the adopted branch), :696 (memory effects certify (ii)), :730 ledger row
  ((i) under (T) is universal).
- SM :112, GR :591: recurrence-cycle P-indivisibility with its hypotheses.
- Computation :83 / ch12 :232: memory witness vs Markov model.
- Book: preface :3, ch01 :93/:207, ch02 :212, ch03 :36/:102/:114/:238/:240,
  ch13 :80, ch15 cluster (revival conditional on backflow), ch18 :193,
  appendix-c :14, README :76/:100; FULL mirrored. Explainer :135/:684/
  :1005/:1033.

SC-22, SC-23, SC-17, SC-19, SC-24, SC-25 sites untouched. Regenerated

Required findings, each verified against the source:
1. NV and coherence numbers removed where the corpus's own anchors say no
   factor is derived (ch15 :104, :134; appendix-a F3/F4; Complexity table):
   ch15 :18, :130, :132, :244, §15.9 item 2; Complexity :488, :490.
2. Complexity :484: memory cases vs revival cases, each with its source.
3. ch15 :116, :128: accessible conditional memory first, revival a further
   signature; :18, :122 "predicts" -> "proposes" for backflow-conditioned
   claims.
4. GR :591: the recurrence argument on a finite invariant constraint surface
   with per-fiber hidden prior (finite order, K_L = I, stochastic-inverse
   lemma), stated as a one-line argument; full-support prior removed; (C1)
   grounded in Main §1.3's ADM/constraint coupling, not in data correlation.
5. ch01 :163: conditional memory identifies the memory-bearing sector.
6. SM :112: site two-slice partition; the update adds the uniform hidden
   x_{L-1}(t), so the one-step map is not a permutation (L >= 4, q >= 2).
7. Main :730: label restating and history voice removed.
8. preface :3 and ch03 :36/:102/:114/:240: finite reversible hypothesis and
   the memory/divisibility feature name.
Optional 9-14: Bioinformatics :138 and ch17 :14 stated as the conditional
theorem; Explainer :135; Complexity :370; ch15 :138; Structure :903, :1041.

Rebuilt the seven papers and the book. Bands unchanged.

Same-document contradictions beside the conditional text, each verified:

   :463, :465, :467, :469: the transcriptome ceiling stated as the
   conditional theorem of :138; whether a quantity lies in the hidden
   fibers is open.
2. ch17 :14, :20, :30, :34, :36, :40, :42, :70, :72, (P1) :218, :206: the
   strict gap I(phenotype|T) < I(phenotype|T,S) as the framework's
   hypothesis, open per task.
3. ch15 :16, :49, :87, :134, :260: error-correction, sensing and overhead
   magnitudes removed (anchors: §15.9 item 1, appendix-a F2, Complexity
   :486/:496).
4. ch03 :36, :102, :114, :240: memory/divisibility as accessible memory
   where the hidden sector reads back its record (C4), and recurrence-cycle
   P-indivisibility on finite reversible substrata (Structure :1025).
Optional: GR :591 finite representative; K_{mL} = I for the s >= L case.

Rebuilt Bioinformatics, GR and the book. Bands unchanged.

- ch15 :134 (+FULL): SQUID comparison deleted, per the owner's ruling on
  counterfactual performance comparisons.
- Optional: ch15 :91 factor-of-three target removed; ch17 :76
  "outperform transcriptome-only methods"; GR :591 "m >= 0".

Reconciles #959 with main after #958. The .md and verification/ merges were
clean. The only conflicts were generated files: Main, GR, SM and the book
.tex/.pdf, regenerated from the merged sources with sh ./build.sh (page counts
unchanged; every source-sha256 stamp matches). The landing against the new
main is exactly this branch's own .md and verification/ diff, so nothing of
#958 is reverted. Release gate: every step passes except lean-axioms (no lake
locally); edge_rigidity_probe passes.
