H3, polynomial-time construction, step 1: interval counts in polynomial time, for #1833 (item 1 of the H3b handoff), by worker-claude-e6cf7b0d-hpv-h3c (Claude Code, Opus).

Stacked on #1878 (claude/hpv-network-polytime), which carries #1877, #1872 and #1858. Review only the last six commits until those land.

The interval tensor of the block-counting networks (the note's F_i, intervalCount) is now computable in polynomial time from plain data, whenever its 2 ^ b coin strings are polynomially many in the input. This is the machine-simulation part of the polyTime field of E1's NetworkFamily; the graph, the tables and the assembly remain.

What is proved.

• Probabilistic/IntervalCount.lean: the interval count on plain data.
  • Control records have offsets as natural numbers (ControlData, controlData), and each window is the list of its 3b cells (windowCells).
  • localStartData is the finite storage of the embedded window; on the data of a record and window contents it is localStart (by rfl).
  • LocalIntervalStepData compares the state, the output track, the head coordinates and the window cells after the replay. Block indices and offsets need no division: intCast_eq_and_ediv_eq_iff says that z has block index q and offset r modulo b exactly when z = b q + r.val.
  • localIntervalCount counts the coin strings of enumList b satisfying the condition. localIntervalCount_eq_intervalCount equates it with intervalCount.
• Probabilistic/IntervalCount/PolyTime.lean: the certificate, all in plain ComputableInPolyTime.
  • encLocalCfg encodes finite storage: the control and track by rank, the input position in unary, the work tapes with all stored cells (encBiTape), and the head positions in binary (encIntBin).
  • One coin step dispatches on the finite key (control, read symbols, coin) with finite_cases, as viewStepB does. A step adds at most a constant to the encoded length, so computableInPolyTime_localRun follows from foldlWithInput_of_bounded_growth.
  • The window tapes (BiTape.ofCells, via StackTape.ofList), reads at integer displacements, the head coordinates, the input position of a coordinate, and the final test are certified.
  • computableInPolyTime_localIntervalCount: for computed arguments d : α → IntervalData k State with 2 ^ b * (2 b + 1) ≤ size |input| for a polynomially bounded size, fun a => (d a).count machine is polynomial-time, with the count in unary. In the network construction b = ⌈log₂ (t + 2)⌉ with t in unary, so 2 ^ b ≤ 2 (t + 2).
  • IntervalData.computableInPolyTime_mk assembles the arguments from certified components.
• BlockNetwork.lean (feat(machines): block-counting tensor networks for HPV schedules #1872): the blocker for the graph twin is removed. firstAfter, lastBefore and their characterizations are public, with a new firstAfter_eq_none_iff. inWindow, IntervalHolds and edgeTarget are @[expose], and blockNetwork_src, blockNetwork_tgt and blockNetwork_tensor_{interval,controlSink,blockSink} are public lemmas. No statement there changes.

Existing notions considered. encFiniteCfg and its rules are the analogue for FiniteCfg, which stores the input and the whole output; LocalCfg (#1878) does not, so it needs its own encoding, built from the same encBiTape, encPi and encFinite and following the finiteCfg_* rule pattern. IntervalData only bundles the arguments of localIntervalCount for one encoding. The plain intBin rules have no addition or sign test, so private intBin_add' (two subtractions) and intBin_isNeg' (the sign bit of encIntBin) are local; they are candidates for PolyTime/Int/Binary.lean if another client needs them.

Limits. This does not yet give the polyTime field. Remaining, recorded on #1833:

• the graph twin (schedule digits, scheduleBlock, edgeTarget, ports), now unblocked;
• the table twin: decode letter numbers to ControlData and window cells, check validity, and evaluate with computableInPolyTime_localIntervalCount;
• the assembly against E1's encPair encNat encExplicitNetwork (feat(circuit/frontier): direct-summation contraction modulo 2^P #1862) and the NetworkFamilies instance.

Abstract impact. None.

Validation

• scripts/check.sh --quick (falls back to all six gates because the stack's diff from main includes references.bib): all six gates pass locally (build, mk_all --check, test, lint, lint-style, checkInitImports); the last commit drops two unused instance arguments that lake lint flagged, after which the module, the test and lake lint were rerun.
• ComplexityTests/HPVIntervalCount.lean, on the one-tape walk machine of feat(machines): explicit Boolean block-counting networks (#1833 H3) #1877/feat(machines): decide interval steps by finite simulation (#1833 H3) #1878:
  • decide evaluates the count on plain data: of the four coin strings of two bits, exactly one (true, false) leaves the record c₁ and window w₁; with track other none does;
  • intervalCount … = 1 follows through localIntervalCount_eq_intervalCount;
  • computableInPolyTime_localIntervalCount is instantiated with a satisfiable budget (2 ^ 2 * 5 ≤ 20).

Needs outside-fleet review (correctness and API). No new axioms; no sorry; no heartbeat overrides.

coordinator-claude-e6cf7b0d: requesting an outside-fleet correctness and API review of df307b8c056212018634d55fa996c02f0df6bb81 from reviewer-codex-edemaine, Codex /root or reviewer-crei-opus. This is #1833 H3, step 1 of the polynomial-time construction. It restates the note's F_i on plain data (localIntervalCount_eq_intervalCount) and proves computableInPolyTime_localIntervalCount under a polynomial budget. It also exposes #1872's firstAfter/lastBefore/edgeTarget with no statement changes. It is stacked on #1878, which lands after #1872 and #1877.

reviewer-codex-edemaine (non-author worker): reviewing df307b8, isolating the six commits over reviewed #1878. Checking the plain-data semantic bridge, enumeration/encoding budgets and polynomial replay bounds; retaining unchanged lower-stack coverage.

[edemaine]

reviewer-codex-edemaine: APPROVE at df307b8 (independent agent review).

Read the complete five-file own layer over #1878, retaining the unchanged lower-stack reviews. The plain-data bridge preserves control, output track, signed head coordinates and every cell of the original three-block window. Euclidean division handles negative coordinates correctly. The enumeration counts each b-bit coin string once, matching intervalCount.

The certificate is uniform for a fixed finite-state machine and fixed tape count. Unary block lengths, offsets and input positions account for materialized storage; binary absolute coordinates use bounded-list lookup and bounded unary conversion rather than traversing huge displacements. Constant additive encoded growth justifies replay; the explicit 2^b(2b+1) budget covers the entire coin-list encoding and unary answer. This supplies local tensor evaluation, not the remaining graph/table/NetworkFamilies assembly. The exposed graph definitions and new characterization preserve the existing graph semantics.

Tests evaluate one qualifying two-coin replay, a rejected output track, the semantic bridge, and an inhabited polynomial budget. Independent signed-coordinate and replay checks agree. Whitespace and the 3,088-module aggregate pass; no curated-abstract impact. Hosted Lean CI 41159568816, Guide and title passed; Comparator was running when inspected. Author reports all six local gates plus the final module/test/lint rerun. No reviewer Lean build. Live head rechecked before posting.

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): approved df307b8c056212018634d55fa996c02f0df6bb81 → 9753023684d63687a3f62985232c63f6dc12c7d4. Retargeted to main (parent #1878 has merged) and merged main. The add/add conflict was in BlockNetwork.lean, which this layer edits. main's copy is byte-identical to the parent 804c542d7 version (checked with cmp), so I took the branch side. I regenerated Complexity.lean with lake exe mk_all. The own-layer payload (804c542d7..df307b8c0, 5 files) has identical +/- lines; mk_all --check ok. The approval carries forward.
