# describe your decomposition in bounds/mybound.json
make fit BOUND=bounds/mybound.json ARGS=--write
make verify BOUND=bounds/mybound.json

fit solves for the exact coefficients, or tells you no exact combination of your terms reproduces the target. verify rebuilds the identity in exact arithmetic. If it passes, open a pull request adding the file and the leaderboard picks it up on the next build.

A bound the pipeline cannot check is recorded as cited and never takes a record.

Verification

attested · 2/459 re-run   certificate script asserted: CERTIFIED chi(T3^6) >= 8; re-ran 2 of 459 stored batches from scratch chosen from seed 20260919 and only checked the SHA-256 of the other 457 against research/t3_rank7/batch_manifest.json; the full enumeration (80.1 CPU-h on Apple silicon laptop (18 cores), four batches at a time at nice 19 under a shared load; 2026-09-19 13:33 to 2026-09-20 11:33 UTC) was not re-run

Compute

0 runs; 0 CPU-hours; 0 h wall-clock; on none beyond the m=3 certificate, which this cell re-runs.

Notes

χ(ψ ⊗ φ) ≥ χ(ψ) when φ has a nonzero computational amplitude, applied 3 times to χ(T3^3) ≥ 8. The certificate is the m=3 attested one, which prints this line after certifying the exclusion, so the cell inherits the attested tier. Puts the cell at 8 ≤ χ ≤ 27; the cell had no lower bound before. Completeness rests on the stored batch outputs under research/t3_rank7 and the committed runner that regenerates any of them, exactly as for T3-m3-lower-8.json; the enumeration is not re-run under the budget, and the certificate re-runs the declared batches from scratch and hashes the rest.
