No computation.\n\n## The object, verbatim\n\n(4.9): `sum_{q <= 2 x^{1/2+eps'} (log x)^{3L}, q odd} tau(q)^3 sup_{t<=x} |Delta_q(t; -2)| = o(x / log x)` -- \"one class, absolute values, level a fixed power beyond the square root\". It is used only for the band piece P_band (#151, issues 1-3), and the document itself names the convention: \"a case of the Elliott-Halberstam range beyond 1/2 in absolute value\" (section 4.3).\n\n## Convention it belongs to\n\n**Level of distribution of primes in arithmetic progressions / the Elliott-Halberstam conjecture EH[theta]** (Elliott-Halberstam 1968-70): `sum_{q<=x^theta} max_{(a,q)=1} |psi(x;q,a) - x/phi(q)| << x (log x)^{-A}` for every theta < 1. (4.9) is the weaker one-class form (a = -2 fixed, no max over a), at theta = 1/2 + eps', with the divisor weight tau(q)^3 and an o(x/log x) rather than log-power saving. Terminology to search under: \"level of distribution beyond 1/2\", \"Bombieri-Vinogradov beyond the square-root barrier\", \"primes in arithmetic progressions to large moduli\", \"well-factorable weights\", \"dense divisibility / smooth moduli\", \"fixed residue class\".\n\n## Search record (2026-09-19, web)\n\nQueries: the convention terms above plus each author pair below; sources inspected at theorem level:\n1. Bombieri-Friedlander-Iwaniec I (Acta Math. 156, 1986) https://projecteuclid.org/journals/acta-mathematica/volume-156/issue-none/Primes-in-arithmetic-progressions-to-large-moduli/10.1007/BF02399204.full ; II (Math. Ann. 277, 1987) https://eudml.org/doc/164255 ; III (JAMS 2, 1989). Beyond-1/2 statements for FIXED a either carry no absolute values (BFI II/III Theorem A: `sum_{q~Q} (pi(x;q,a) - pi(x)/phi(q))` with Q = x^{1/2+delta}) or use well-factorable weights lambda_q (BFI I Thm 10, level x^{4/7}). Drops: absolute values, or unweighted moduli. (Already in the document's matrix rows.)\n2. Zhang, Ann. Math. 179 (2014) Theorem 2 https://annals.math.princeton.edu/2014/179-3/p07 : absolute values, level x^{1/2+2varpi} (varpi = 1/1168), but only over y-smooth squarefree moduli and residue classes that are roots of a fixed polynomial mod q. Drops: all moduli; general fixed a. NOT in the document's matrix.\n3. Polymath8a, Algebra & Number Theory 8 (2014), MPZ[varpi, delta] https://arxiv.org/abs/1402.0811 : same shape as Zhang with densely divisible moduli, up to 1/2 + 7/300. Same drops. NOT in the matrix.\n4. Maynard, Primes in arithmetic progressions to large moduli I https://arxiv.org/abs/2006.06572 (Thm 1.1: absolute values, fixed a, moduli q = q_1 q_2 with factors in prescribed ranges; Cor. 1.3: all but O(delta Q phi(a)/a) moduli in [Q, 2Q], Q = x^{1/2+delta}); II https://arxiv.org/abs/2006.07088 (well-factorable weights, x^{3/5}); III https://arxiv.org/abs/2006.08250 (uniform in a, moduli with a convenient divisor). Drops: the exceptional moduli (I, Cor 1.3) or the divisor condition. (I and II are in the matrix; the document's section 8 already names \"the exceptional moduli in the cited Maynard range\" as the unmatched hypothesis -- confirmed.)\n5. Fouvry-Radziwill, Level of distribution of unbalanced convolutions, Ann. Sci. ENS (2022) https://arxiv.org/abs/1811.08672 : absolute values over all moduli to x^{1/2+1/66-eps} for a convolution alpha*beta with one very short Siegel-Walfisz factor. Drops: the sequence is a convolution with a length hypothesis, not Lambda (or the document's mu-weighted band sum) directly. NOT in the matrix; the closest shape to the band's bilinear arrangement (section 4.2) and the one lead worth a primary read.\n6. Friedlander-Granville, Limitations to the equi-distribution of primes I, Ann. Math. 129 (1989): EH-type bounds FAIL uniformly at level x/(log x)^B. Does not touch fixed theta = 1/2 + eps' < 1; recorded as the known ceiling.\nAccess gaps: BFI primaries and the Fouvry-Radziwill theorem statement were read at abstract/secondary level only; page and equation numbers for coverage claims are therefore not asserted beyond theorem labels above.\n\n## Verdict\n\n**No match found within the stated search; not \"owned\".** (4.9) is a special case of EH[1/2+eps'] in one-class absolute-value form, which is open; no source provides absolute values over ALL (odd) moduli to a fixed power beyond x^{1/2} for a single fixed class, with or without the tau(q)^3 weight. Exact difference from the closest results: Maynard I Cor. 1.3 covers all but a delta-proportion of the moduli (the document's own stated gap); Zhang / Polymath8a cover only smooth or densely divisible moduli and polynomial residue classes; Fouvry-Radziwill covers all moduli with absolute values but for unbalanced convolutions with a length hypothesis. Consequently NO `IMPORT-MAP.md` row is proposed. Two additions the document's source matrix does not yet carry: Zhang Thm 2 / MPZ (rows 2-3) and Fouvry-Radziwill (row 5); the latter is the recommended next primary read for the band's bilinear arrangement, because the band in cofactor form (section 4.3, \"both e and m within x^{eps+eps'} of the square root\") is exactly an (un)balanced convolution -- whether its factors satisfy the Siegel-Walfisz/length hypotheses of that theorem is the precise remaining question (~1 h, reading only).\n\nConsistent with #151's parity remark: (4.9) follows from EH by Cauchy-Schwarz against the trivial bound, and (4.9) alone does not close the D-margin (it leaves T_II^low) -- nothing here changes that.\n\nCited: #151 (@Benjaminsen), the served `research/fixed-endpoint-discrepancy.md` and `research/SEARCH-CONVENTIONS.md`.
