H3, explicit form of the block-counting networks for #1833 (Lemma 2.2 of Samuel's note), by worker-claude-e6cf7b0d-hpv-h3b (Claude Code, Opus).

Stacked on #1872 (claude/hpv-block-network, head e84e94885), which carries #1866, #1858, #1851, #1841 and #1844. Review only the last commit until those land.

What is proved. explicitBlockNetwork machine input b σ e writes the semantic network blockNetwork of #1872 out as an ExplicitTensorNetwork ℕ. It binarizes by a concrete letter code, subdivides by equality tensors, and numbers the old vertices first.

• sum_contraction_explicitBlockNetwork (hq : 0 < q): summed over the schedules σ : Schedule k q, the explicit contractions equal machine.acceptCount input (q * b). It follows from contraction_toExplicit, contraction_subdivide and contraction_binarize.
• Size: numEdges = 2 * (q * (3k+1) * m) with m = letterBits k s b = (s + k + 4) * b; vertices.length = q(3k+2) + q(3k+1)m; maxDegree ≤ 2(3k+1)m.
• isRowsFirstBipartite_explicitBlockNetwork: the first q * (3k+2) vertices (intervals and sinks) are the rows.
• Tables have length 2 ^ (number of ports), and every entry is at most 2 ^ b.
• admissible_explicitBlockNetwork: if b ≤ 3 ⌊log₂ t⌋ and q * b ≤ 2t, the network is rows-first bipartite with at most C·t edges and maximum degree at most C·⌊log₂ t⌋, where C = 6(3k+1)(s+k+4). This is the shape of E1's intended Admissible (feat(Classes/CountingSimulation): conditional assembly of the counting simulation (#1833 E1) #1865). Nat.clog_two_add_two_le_three_mul_log_two (⌈log₂ (t+2)⌉ ≤ 3⌊log₂ t⌋ for t ≥ 2) gives the first hypothesis at E1's blockLength, and E1's paddedTime_add_one_le (in feat(Classes/CountingSimulation): conditional assembly of the counting simulation (#1833 E1) #1865, not on this branch) gives the second.

Conventions.

• The letter code (letterCode e) is the m low binary digits of letterEquiv e, a numbering built only from finProdFinEquiv, finSumFinEquiv, finSuccEquiv, finFunctionFinEquiv and ZMod.finEquiv. It is computable, so the polynomial-time twin (the next H3 milestone) can reproduce it exactly. Fintype.equivFin would not allow this, because it is chosen noncomputably.
• States are numbered by a parameter e : State ≃ Fin s. The network family will fix one with Finite.equivFin.
• Edges and vertices are numbered by explicit equivalences (blockEdgeEquiv, explicitVertexEquiv, explicitEdgeEquiv).

Generic additions (TensorNetwork/Explicit.lean, from #1844):

• ExplicitTensorNetwork.IsRowsFirstBipartite r, which is decidable: every port names an edge, and every edge is a port of the first r vertices exactly once and of the rest exactly once. This is the first condition of the T2 contract guard (Formalize Appendix D: recursive tensor contraction and the sharper Theorem 1.1 bound for #k-SAT #1538), and E1 can use it in Admissible.
• length_explicitPorts (ports are the incident edges), count_explicitPorts, maxDegree_toExplicit_le, isRowsFirstBipartite_toExplicit, length_table_toExplicit and exists_tensor_of_mem_toExplicit.

Limits.

• Constants are not optimized. The tables have 2^(2(3k+1)(s+k+4)b) entries, which is polynomial in t for b = O(log t) but with a large exponent.
• The identity still needs q > 0, as feat(machines): block-counting tensor networks for HPV schedules #1872 does.
• No polynomial-time certificate yet. That is the next H3 milestone (Deterministic simulation of NTIME, BPTIME and PPTIME in 2^{O(T/√log T)} via HPV blocking and tensor contraction #1833, item 3 of the H3 handoff).

Existing notions considered.

• Fintype.equivFin was rejected for the code because it is noncomputable, as above.
• TensorNetwork.binarize/subdivide/toExplicit and Multigraph.IsBipartite are reused.
• Multigraph.IsBipartite is the semantic notion. IsRowsFirstBipartite is its explicit, decidable counterpart with the sides fixed by position, which is what the contraction algorithm reads.
• No existing OutputTrack ≃ Fin 3 or ZMod b ≃ Fin b wrapper was found beyond ZMod.finEquiv, which zmodEquiv wraps.

Abstract impact. None.

Validation

• scripts/check.sh --quick fell back to all six gates (the stack's base diff includes references.bib). All six pass locally at the PR head.
• Tests:
  • ComplexityTests/HPVExplicitBlockNetwork.lean (on the existing tiny machines emitCoin and walk): letterEquiv and letterCode on concrete letters by decide (numbers 44 and 34, and a 14-bit code); the counting identity, giving 2 and 8 accepting strings; size, degree, bipartition and tables at concrete parameters; and admissibility at t = 2.
  • ComplexityTests/Computability/Circuit/Frontier/TensorNetwork.lean: IsRowsFirstBipartite by decide, positive and negative cases (both vertices as rows, rows not first, a port naming no edge); on a subdivided network written out, the general lemmas agree with evaluation.

reviewer-codex-edemaine (non-author worker): reviewing 2914159's own layer over reviewed #1872, reusing the unchanged stack. Scope: explicit encodings/ports, contraction preservation, rows-first guard and admissibility bounds.

reviewer-codex-edemaine: APPROVE at 2914159 (independent agent review, not human approval).

Read the complete six-file layer over reviewed #1872, reusing its unchanged stack/model coverage. The explicit finite equivalences and low-bit code are injective at positive block length. Binarization, subdivision and write-out preserve contraction; q>0 remains explicit. Old vertices are numbered first. The rows-first guard counts exactly one port on each side per edge and rejects out-of-range ports; its general write-out proof also excludes loops.

The letter capacity, edge/vertex counts, multiplied degree and table-entry bounds support the stated machine-dependent O(t)/O(log t) admissibility bounds. Checked the concrete 44/34 codes, inherited 2/8 counting instances, positive/negative bipartition examples and t=2 admissibility instance; independently checked 672 capacity cases and 9,998 log-bound cases. The polynomial-time construction certificate remains open. No abstract impact.

Whitespace and sorted aggregate pass. Author reports all six local gates at this head. No hosted workflow runs were returned at the single CI inspection; the PR currently has a base conflict, so integration validation remains outstanding. No reviewer Lean build.

Nonblocking API trim: zmodEquiv is exactly (ZMod.finEquiv b).toEquiv.symm. Reuse that expression directly or keep the shorthand private, so this application does not export another name for the existing equivalence.

integrator-claude-e6cf7b0d-a (integration delegate of coordinator-claude-e6cf7b0d, at Samuel's request): merging main into this branch to resolve conflicts and land it.

[SamuelSchlesinger]

Carry-forward record (integrator-claude-e6cf7b0d-a, integration delegate of coordinator-claude-e6cf7b0d): merged main now that #1872 has landed. Approved 2914159380f388f8a1814dd396f6ace61bf0914d → 5fb71bd395f6eacafbcb5d701bbdb12ce04eb013.

• The add/add conflicts were in TensorNetwork/Explicit.lean and its test, which this layer extends. main's copies are byte-identical to the parent e84e94885 versions (checked with cmp), so I took the branch side.
• I regenerated Complexity.lean with lake exe mk_all.
• The own-layer payload (e84e94885..2914159380f388f8a1814dd396f6ace61bf0914d, 6 files) has identical +/- lines; mk_all --check ok. The approval carries forward.
