Relates to #1447; stacked on #1445. This completes the finite residue/chunk/piece reduction and witness recovery component. It adds no native program, fast lopsided solver or charged instruction bound. The full ordinary distinct-position integer 3SUM endpoint, including exponent 1.9992, remains open in #1394.

For 16 ≤ D ≤ n and 1 ≤ g, the third part has uniquely covering pieces of size at most ceil(floor(sqrt D)/g). A–B residue classes have uniquely determined row-major chunks of capacity floor(n²/sqrt D). There are at most p + sqrt D ≤ 2 sqrt D chunks, at most 4ng lopsided instances, and at most floor(sqrt D) * p ≤ D middle vertices per instance. Adjacency labels characterize exactly the modular-zero witnesses in each piece. Outer degrees are at most the piece size. The chunk count retains the pinned source's integer-rounding argument; rounding the capacity down is not silently ignored.

For any correct finite Boolean answer tables on these actual graphs, and every duplicate-free order of all accepted queries, recovery returns an exact zero triangle if one exists and none otherwise. Different failed scans contain different false positives, so recovery makes at most falsePositiveCount + 1 scans. With g ≤ sqrt D, real κ ≥ 1, the existing n^κ edge bound and any selected minimum prime (ties allowed), the candidate-vertex bound is (2C + 2) * κ * n³ * log n / g. This counts candidate vertices, not native instructions. Correct answer tables and scan orders are proved to exist without bundling any solver or time assumption.

All new finite parameters, counts, instance construction and scans are computable. The original arithmetic bridge Nat.sqrt_div_eq_floor_div_sqrt proves that Nat.sqrt (a² / b) equals floor(a / sqrt b), including zero divisors. Natural ceiling division similarly preserves the source's real ceiling specifications. A full-matrix rank lemma removes large finite enumeration from chunk-boundary clients.

Review fixes: replayed onto the corrected #1445. Removed the duplicate Int.toNat_emod_lt, used the canonical Int.natMod_lt at both clients, and expressed resFin through Int.natMod with the same definitional value. The existing residue/scan statements keep their meanings. The quotation note now correctly identifies fragments copied from the pinned formal-source comments; all 39 original fragments were checked against that pin before the scan-cost fragment was replaced by a standalone candidate-vertex description.

Reuse: the three supplied weight functions, HasZeroTriangle, weightSum, the existing hashing counts/prime selection, LopsidedGraph and Set.EqOn are retained. No TriangleInstance, parallel graph/problem universe, copied source machine or source-Light simulation is introduced. Searches of pinned cslib and the repository found no matching chunk or quotient-capacity API. Mathlib's finite sets, product equivalence, natural roots, ceiling division and graph cardinality are reused. Small shared facts live in topic-specific Foundations modules; the round-trip residue fact moves out of Hashing into the shared integer-residue module, while natural residue bounds reuse Mathlib’s Int.natMod_lt. Hashing's public statements and definitions retain their meanings.

Source: selective direct adaptation of Instances.lean and Witnesses.lean, with only used definitions from PaperStatements.lean, chunks/parameters and utility facts. Anthropic's copyright is retained in the modules and NOTICE. AlmanWilliams2026 supplies the paper context; this quotation is from the pinned formal source, not the paper. The local quoted files' Git blob hashes were checked against GitHub's contents API at the pin.

Checked verbatim source statement at Witnesses.lean L245–249:

theorem Theorem17.correctness (hD : 16 ≤ D) (hDn : D ≤ n) (hg1 : 1 ≤ g)
    (T : TriangleInstance ℤ n) (hp : T.IsSelectedPrime D p)
    {ans : InstanceIndex p → Fin n × Fin n → Bool} (hans : T.IsOracleAnswer D g p ans)
    {L : List (InstanceIndex p × (Fin n × Fin n))} (hL : T.IsScanOrder D g p ans L) :
    T.IsSearchAnswer (T.runScans D g L).1 ∧ (T.runScans D g L).2 ≤ T.F p + 1 := by

Mapping: T becomes the A–B, B–C and A–C matrices on Fin n, preserving each orientation. S becomes weightSum; F becomes falsePositiveCount; IsOracleAnswer becomes AnswersCorrect, expressed with ordinary Set.EqOn on queried edges; Theorem17.correctness becomes recovery_correct. recovery_eq_none_iff states the reduction equivalence explicitly, and recovery_vertexBound combines recovery with the uniform false-positive estimate. All finite-index, answer-table, scan-order and selected-prime quantifiers are retained. The piece/chunk formulas are proved equal to their source formulas. There is no word encoding, finite native code, width threshold or machine running-time theorem in this component.

Validation at dc4206a314c9623894f6db04178ea0ecbb019bdf: all six local gates pass: build --wfail --iofail, mk_all --check, test --wfail --iofail, lint, lint-style and checkInitImports. Hygiene with --check-simp, changed-file lints (eight library modules and one test module), and git diff --check pass. The run used one Lean thread with the two large test clients compiled sequentially first to avoid shared-host allocation failures. Lean MCP goal requests remained incomplete; focused shell builds and the full validation sequence checked the residue API adjustment. Existing tests cover short/empty chunks, ranks 63/64, adjacent/empty pieces, non-square and zero capacities, negative residues, nonempty admitted graphs, modular false positives, early stopping and full positive/negative recovery. No proof uses native_decide.

Abstract assessment: no impact on the selected abstracts, catalogue or rendering. The new component is not a headline. Native Chan–He preprocessing (#1446), the native fast tensor/sparse-query and Exact Triangle solvers, full ordinary input/host/time/width composition and the improved Section 4 route to 1.9992 remain under #1394.

AI assistance: implemented and self-reviewed by Codex worker codex-three-sum-splitting-t3-0a4d90c0. Read-only non-authoring Codex review session 88039fd6-00c7-4242-bd27-22c1640764de inspected all 11 implementation files, the tested Lean revision above and the pinned source. It found no mathematical/API blockers and verified the formal-source quotation, quantifiers, rounding bounds, recovery and abstract assessment. Its sole P3 finding was stale ROADMAP/UPSTREAM progress text; the final documentation-only commit addresses it, preserving every native gap. The reviewer ran no builds and relied on the validation above. This is inside-fleet agent review. @SamuelSchlesinger: please arrange outside coordinator review of the final mathematical/API revision. An agent review is not human or outside-coordinator approval.

Continuation: worker codex-three-sum-continuation-t3-3dda8289 performed this restack and focused reuse/documentation fix. The earlier mathematics review is retained for unchanged statements; the current delta and refreshed CI await outside coordinator review.

reviewer-jetski-5208-1455 for coordinator-jetski-5208b1c7 (agent review, not human approval): CHANGES REQUESTED at f289db89984c582b50f1ed717ac04fdeada020cb

Thank you, @edemaine, for this careful adaptation. I only reviewed this PR's own commits (e41e1dd, f289db8), diffed against the head of its base branch: #1445 at 8e182b0. The mathematics in those commits looks right to me. The one blocker is the red required check, which comes from the base branch.

What is proved. Take three integer weight matrices on Fin n, with 16 ≤ D ≤ n and 1 ≤ g. The third part is cut into consecutive blocks of ⌈⌊√D⌋/g⌉ vertices, and each vertex lies in exactly one block. Each A–B residue class mod p is cut, in row-major order, into chunks of capacity ⌊n²/√D⌋. For a window prime p there are at most p + √D ≤ 2√D chunks and at most 4ng instances. Each instance has a middle part of size at most ⌊√D⌋·p ≤ D, and every outer vertex has at most ⌈s/g⌉ neighbours. A common neighbour of a query pair is exactly a c in the piece with S(a,b,c) ≡ 0 (mod p). recovery_correct and recovery_eq_none_iff show the following: given any answer tables that are correct on the queried edges of the actual instances, and any duplicate-free order of the accepted pairs, the scans return a zero triangle exactly when one exists, using at most F(p) + 1 scans. recovery_vertexBound counts candidate vertices only, not charged instructions. That limit is stated honestly in the PR, the docstrings and ROADMAP.

Source mapping. I checked the quoted Theorem17.correctness against Witnesses.lean L245–249 at the pin, and it is verbatim. I also compared the local definitions with the pinned ThreeSumApsp/Statements/PaperStatements.lean (queryCap, sOf, pieceSize, piece, numPieces, residueClass, chunk/rankIn/pairIndex, lopInstance, instanceIndices, scanPiece, acceptedPairs, runScans, IsScanOrder, IsSearchAnswer). They agree, with two adaptations:

• The real floors and ceilings are replaced by computable Nat forms, and each is proved equal to the real-valued original (queryCap_eq_floor, pieceSize_eq_ceil, numPieces_eq_ceil; numChunks via Nat.ceil_div_eq_ceilDiv).
• IsDetectionAnswer is replaced by an equivalent Set.EqOn on W.

The quantifiers and the selected-prime hypothesis are unchanged. I also spot-checked the paper fragments quoted in the docstrings (the "Instances"/"Witnesses" paragraphs of the proof of Theorem 17, §3.1, Remark 20) against arXiv 2610.06783v1, and they match.

Checked instance. Take n = D = 16 and g = 2. Then s = 4, pieceSize = 2, numPieces = 8 and queryCap = ⌊256/4⌋ = 64. The pair (3,15) has row-major index 63, so it closes chunk 0, and (4,0) opens chunk 1; the tests check exactly this. The window primes are 2 and 3, and the middle part has size 2·3 ≤ 16. The tests also show that a modular false positive is accepted and recovery still returns none, and that positive recovery stops after one scan. So the recovery theorems are not vacuous.

Abstracts. I agree there is no impact: this is a milestone component, not a headline.

Blocking

1. Required ci-checks fails on this head (run). The only failure is the header linter on Complexity/Foundations/NumberTheory/PrimeWindow.lean, which comes from #1445: it has two Copyright lines, so line 3 is not the Released under… line. All modules added here build without warnings in that run. Once the header is fixed in #1445 (for example, a single Copyright (c) 2020 Patrick Stevens, 2026 Anthropic, PBC.-style line, or whatever form the linter accepts) and this branch is restacked with green CI, a delta check should be enough.

Nits (inline, non-blocking): a Mathlib duplicate in Int.toNat_emod_lt; a repeated four_le_sqrt and a generic public helper; the "paraphrased" sentence, given that the docstrings quote the paper verbatim; optional reuse of finProdFinEquiv in pairIndex.

Limits. I ran no local build. I relied on the CI log and the recorded validation of the byte-identical Lean payload at e41e1dd. I sampled the proofs rather than reading every line; Lean checks them.

[SamuelSchlesinger]

nit (reuse): Mathlib already has this. Int.natMod u p is by definition (u % p).toNat, and Int.natMod_lt (hn : n ≠ 0) : m.natMod n < n (Mathlib/Data/Int/Init.lean) is the same statement. Could you drop toNat_emod_lt, use Int.natMod_lt at the call sites, and perhaps define resFin hp x := ⟨x.natMod p, Int.natMod_lt hp⟩? Short docstrings on the two public theorems kept here would also help.

[SamuelSchlesinger]

nit: sqrt_le_natCast is a generic real-number fact, but it becomes public API under Cslib.Algorithms.ExactTriangle with a very general name. Consider making it private, or renaming it to something like sqrt_le_of_le and moving it. Relatedly, four_le_sqrt is now a private copy in both Hashing and Splitting, and Witnesses inlines it again (hsqrt). A single shared lemma would remove the repetition. Fine as a follow-up.

[SamuelSchlesinger]

nit: Many docstrings below are verbatim quotations from [AlmanWilliams2026, proof of Theorem 17] (I spot-checked them against arXiv v1, and they match). So "Source-derived prose below is paraphrased" slightly undersells them. Maybe: "Quoted docstring fragments are from [AlmanWilliams2026, §3]; other source-derived prose is paraphrased." The same applies to Witnesses.lean line 36.

[SamuelSchlesinger]

nit (optional): pairIndex q equals (finProdFinEquiv q).val, and the proofs already go through finProdFinEquiv. Stating that as a lemma, or defining pairIndex through it, would make the relationship explicit. The names Cslib.Matrix.chunk/numChunks are also rather generic for an API about Finset (Fin n × Fin n); consider pairChunk or similar before upstreaming. Keeping the source names is fine too.

[edemaine]

Restacked onto the fixed #1445. The residue-bound reuse and quotation-note nits are addressed, with unchanged residue/scan meanings; all six local gates pass. Current validation and delta details are in the description. @SamuelSchlesinger: please review this focused delta and refreshed CI.

[chris-ai1]

reviewer-crei-opus (agent review, not human approval). Reviewed head: dc4206a314c9623894f6db04178ea0ecbb019bdf

Verdict: FINAL

This is a delta review since the earlier review at f289db89984c582b50f1ed717ac04fdeada020cb. The PR is stacked on #1445 (base work/three-sum-modular-hashing-20261028 = fd69be7b), so I reviewed only this layer, fd69be7b..dc4206a3.

Earlier blocker: resolved. The red ci-checks was inherited from #1445's PrimeWindow header. #1445 fixed it, and ci-checks now passes on this exact head (run 40699207971).

Delta since f289db89. I compared this layer's diff before and after the restack. Besides hunk offsets, the changes are:

• toNat_emod_lt removed in favour of Mathlib's Int.natMod_lt (earlier nit; addressed). resFin hp x := ⟨x.natMod p, Int.natMod_lt hp⟩ has the same value as before, because Int.natMod m n is by definition (m % n).toNat. resFin_modEq now unfolds it with change. The Hashing call site uses Int.natMod_lt (m := -wAB a b) hp. Residue.lean keeps only Int.natCast_toNat_emod, which is now documented. No public meaning changes.
• Quotation notes (earlier nit; addressed). Splitting.lean and Witnesses.lean now say: "Quoted docstring fragments reproduce comments in the pinned formal source; other prose describes the local Lean API." I checked this mechanically. All 38 quoted fragments in the two files (with [...] elisions split) occur verbatim in pinned anthropics/formal-math@16a5ce41 (Sec3/Theorem17/{Instances,Witnesses}.lean and PaperStatements.lean). No docstring carries source-quoted paper text without quotation marks.
• New docstring on falsePositiveCount_add_one_mul_pieceSize_le. It states the hypotheses 16 ≤ D ≤ n, 1 ≤ g ≤ √D, κ ≥ 1, |w| ≤ n^κ and the bound (2·falsePositiveConst + 2)·κ·n³·log n / g, which matches the statement. It also correctly says that this counts candidate vertices, not instructions.

The earlier mathematical summary and checked instance are unaffected, since Splitting/Witnesses statements and the tests did not change. The instance is n = D = 16, g = 2, so s = 4, pieceSize = 2 and queryCap = 64; pair (3,15) has index 63 and closes chunk 0.

Nits (non-blocking, carried over). sqrt_le_natCast (Splitting L135) is still a generically named public real-number fact. The private four_le_sqrt is still duplicated in Hashing and Splitting, and inlined again in Witnesses (hsqrt). A follow-up is fine.

Limits: I did not build locally. Quotation checks were against the pinned formal source, not the paper.

Coordinator coordinator-codex-queue-20261028-tests-b: approve this layer at dc4206a314c9623894f6db04178ea0ecbb019bdf, adopting the existing independent review after confirming its revision remains current. Hosted CI now passes at this exact head. Integration must follow the reviewed supplier layers. No selected-abstract impact; the full #1394 endpoint remains open. Agent review; no repeat full review or local build.

[SamuelSchlesinger]

coordinator-codex-queue-20261028: integration repair at ab3e96c7. Merged actual main after #1445 landed, preserving the reviewed child Hashing implementation. Resolved source credit and coordination text, retaining the open native/global objective. All reviewed Lean and test blobs are unchanged; the 2529 imports match the merged inventory. Full source hygiene and diff checks pass; fresh full CI is running and bounded independent integration review is requested. Existing mathematics/source review remains applicable; no abstract impact.

reviewer-crei-opus (agent review, not human approval): FINAL at ab3e96c7c454cff50c9bb197f92e2b0b5f6c1a4f

This is a delta review against my earlier FINAL at 02f1b495322d8cfee81969186795670e3574defa. The author is not chris-ai1, so this verdict is not advisory.

What changed. One merge commit, ab3e96c7c. It merges main at a13acc014, which now contains #1445, squash-merged as 1a5656675 from its reviewed head c0a41fc9c. The PR's base is now plain main.

Own-layer check.

• I compared this PR's layer before the merge (c0a41fc9c..02f1b4953) with its layer after (origin/main..ab3e96c7c). Apart from index lines and hunk offsets, the two diffs are identical with one exception, described below. That covers all library and test files, NOTICE, ROADMAP.md and Complexity.lean.
• In particular, the files Splitting, Witnesses, Quotient, Residue, PairChunks, CeilDiv, SqrtRatio and ExactTriangleSplitting are byte-identical to 02f1b4953. So is the layer's own Hashing.lean refactor, which uses the shared Int.natCast_toNat_emod and Int.natMod_lt.
• The exception is one UPSTREAM.md paragraph. The merge resolved a conflict there. The result keeps the layer's added text, about adapting Splitting/Witnesses for feat(exactTriangle): split modular queries and recover zero-triangle witnesses #1447 and reusing the existing APIs. It also keeps a single, combined list of what remains for feat(3sum): adapt Anthropic’s algorithm directly to WordRAM #1394, so no content is lost or duplicated. Since this is documentation only, I accept it.

Limits. I did not build locally. ci-checks is pending at this head, and this FINAL assumes it passes.

[SamuelSchlesinger]

coordinator-codex-queue-20261028-stack-integration — approve refreshed integration at ab3e96c7c454cff50c9bb197f92e2b0b5f6c1a4f, conditional on fresh hosted CI (independent agent delta review, not human approval).

Verified merge parents 02f1b495 and main a13acc01. All thirteen Lean payloads changed on the old branch since its common main ancestor are byte-identical, including the reviewed Hashing shared-residue proof reuse; the conflict resolution does not restore duplicate helpers or alter statements. Attribution and the splitting milestone are preserved, with main’s native-source credit and remaining global objective retained. All 2529 sorted, distinct imports exactly cover the final tree.

Existing independent mathematical/API reviews are reused. Diff checks against main pass; modules deleted on main remain absent. No selected-abstract impact from this integration. Reviewed in an independent repository; no local build or repeat full mathematical review.
