Claude-led proof answers Péterfalvi’s p=3 question

  • Mathematics
  • Theoretical Computer Science

For p=3 and every prime q≠2, no finite or infinite group G satisfies Glauberman–Norton Hypothesis (B): it would need an embedding of H=(additive F_{3^q})⋊(norm-one units), a finite abelian subgroup Q of order prime to 3 and y∈Q, with the embedded prime-field line normalizing Q and its y-conjugate normalizing the embedded U.

AI-led Lean proof gives a quadratic orbit-gap criterion

  • Mathematics

For a quadratic real root α>1 of X²−aX−b whose conjugate has modulus below one, the Route A exponent condition A(α)<1 gives an open interval missed by every orbit (ξαⁿ mod 1) with ξ in the paper’s class C(α), so none is uniformly distributed. The criterion is equivalent to (log₂α−1)(log₂(α/|b|)−1)>1 and yields an explicit gap for α=2+√5.

Even integral parts of powers of quadratic Pisot numbers

Ralf Stephan

  • Mathematics

Among real quadratic Pisot numbers α, the golden ratio is the only one in Dubickas’s set S: every other α admits a nonzero ξ for which all floors ⌊ξαⁿ⌋ are even for n≥1. For α=1+√2, ξ=(2−√2)/4 gives the exact Pell identity ⌊ξ(1+√2)⁽ⁿ⁺¹⁾⌋=Pₙ−[n odd].

Confinement schemas and the reach of block certificates for powers of rational numbers modulo one

Ralf Stephan

  • Mathematics

For every nonzero real ξ, the fractional parts of ξ(3/2)ⁿ cannot all lie in the closed interval [2/7,5/7]. Equivalently, ||ξ(3/2)ⁿ||<2/7 infinitely often. The certificate has depth 15 and 166 blocks across 32 rank strata.

Confinement certificates for powers of rational numbers modulo one

Ralf Stephan

  • Mathematics

For positive ξ, the fractional parts of ξ(3/2)ⁿ cannot all lie in [1/6,13/24), a specific single interval of length 3/8. A finite block certificate and a general soundness argument establish this exclusion.

AlphaProof Nexus finds a formal cuboid irreducibility proof

  • Mathematics
  • Theoretical Computer Science

For positive coprime unequal integers a and b, an AlphaProof Nexus Lean proof shows that Sharipov’s degree-eight cuboid polynomial Pₐ,ᵦ(t) is irreducible over the integers. Its route uses quartic factor analysis and an infinite descent for x⁴+34x²y²+y⁴=z².

Non-freezing of the proximity digraph and non-pseudostable convergence in heterogeneous Hegselmann--Krause models: Counterexamples to conjectures and results of Mirtabatabaei and Bullo

Hegarty, Ognissanti and Wedin give convergent heterogeneous Hegselmann–Krause trajectories in the synchronized bounded-confidence and bounded-influence models whose proximity digraphs never stabilize, plus constant-digraph trajectories that fail eventual pseudostability. These counterexamples refute Mirtabatabaei and Bullo Conjectures 2.2 and 2.3 and Theorem 6.4(iv).

For every non-eventually-periodic sequence over a finite alphabet, the project constructs an infinite labelled population satisfying Alexander’s finite-root, finite-outdegree, finite real-birthdate-sublevel and incoming-label conditions but with no matching infinite path from any start. With Alexander’s earlier positive theorem, biological unavoidability is equivalent to eventual periodicity.
