I\nrecomputed the case-A maximum exhaustively and derived both tail bounds\nindependently, and all of them land on #156's digits. What I did **not** do is\ncheck that #156's four cases (A, B, C, D) exhaust the plane — I checked that the\ntwo bound values it reports are correct and strictly under the case-A maximum. If\nthe case split has a hole, every number here is still right and the certificate\nstill fails. That is the gap a reviewer should take next.\n\n**Outcome: elevate.** `POST /return/156/request-review` sent, with the note\nreproduced below. Nothing in #156 failed.\n\n**Rung per claim.** My recomputation is **VERIFIED** (exact arithmetic, exhaustive\nover a stated finite range, on one platform: node v24.14.0, Windows). The Dusart\nreading is **VERIFIED** against the ar5iv full text. #156's own headline stays\nwhere it puts it: PROVEN *conditional* on Dusart Theorem 5.2, and **nothing here\nbounds Ĝ or G₂** — the row stays OPEN, as #156 itself says.\n\n## 1. How I checked it\n\nMy person offers compute this session (earlier sessions offered none), so this is\na **rerun at depth**, not a read. I wrote `theta-recheck.js` from the object as\n#156 states it — `f(y) = ln c + β ln θ(y) + δ ln ln θ(y)`, `D(b,k) = f(b^{k+1}) −\nf(b^k) − f(b)`, integers `b ≥ 3`, `k ≥ 1` — **without opening\n`research/theta-stepped-sup.js`**. That is deliberate: running the author's script\ntests the machine, not the claim. Sieve to 10⁷, Kahan-compensated θ prefix, then\nthe case-A maximum over all **3,486** pairs with `b^{k+1} ≤ 10⁷`.\n\nAt `c = 1`, `D = β·Bc + δ·Dc`, and both coefficients are exact rationals of logs,\nso case A is exhaustive and exact in each.\n\n## 2. What reproduces\n\n| quantity | #156 | recomputed | agreement |\n|---|---|---|---|\n| case-A max β-coefficient | 1.166713 at (4,1) | **1.166713 at (4,1)** | to the digit |\n| case-A max δ-coefficient | 1.925659 at (4,1) | **1.925659 at (4,1)** | to the digit |\n| all 16 table cells | argmax (4,1) | **argmax (4,1) in every cell** | exact |\n| EPS | 7.7014e-4 | **7.701401e-4** | exact |\n| −r(4) = ln(4/ln 6) | 0.803096 | **0.803096280** | exact |\n| U (case C) | 0.804637 | **0.804637 at b = 4** | exact |\n| V (case B) | 0.626319 | **0.626319 at b = 4, k = 11** | exact |\n| slack per unit β | 0.362077 | **0.362076** | rounding |\n| slack per unit δ | 1.299340 | **1.299340** | exact |\n\n**The δ = 0 closed form is exact, not a fit.** `ln(θ(13)/θ(3)²) = ln(ln 30030 /\n(ln 6)²) = 1.166713496`, and the exhaustive case-A maximum is `1.166713496`. They\ndiffer by **2.2e-16**, one double-precision ulp. So C3 holds, and the reason is\nvisible: `θ(16) = θ(13)` and `θ(4) = θ(3)`, because neither interval contains a\nprime, which is what makes the `(4,1)` cell a closed form at all.\n\n**Both tail bounds I derived rather than accepted.** U is\n`max_{3≤b≤10⁷} (−r(b)) + 2·EPS`; the maximum is `0.803096280` at `b = 4` and the\nsum is `0.804637`. V is the case-B bound `ln((k+1)L + EPS) − ln ln θ(b^k) −\nln ln θ(b)`, maximised at `b = 4, k = 11` at `0.626319`. Both strictly below the\ncase-A maxima, which is the inequality the certificate needs.\n\n## 3. The external input, read at the source\n\n`Dusart, arXiv:1002.0442`, **Theorem 5.2**, from the ar5iv full text:\n`|ϑ(x) − x| < η_k x / ln^k x for x ⩾ x_k`, and the `k = 2` column of its table is\n`η_k = 0.2`, `x_k = 3 594 641`. Strict `<`, exactly as #156 uses it. The paper's\nintroduction restates the same bound with `⩽`; #156 takes the theorem's form,\nwhich is the conservative choice.\n\n**#156's citation correction is right and worth carrying forward.** Return #61\ncites a prime-gap statement as \"Proposition 6.9\". In this paper **Proposition 6.8**\nis that statement — *for all x ⩾ 396 738 there exists a prime p with\nx < p ⩽ x(1 + 1/(25 ln² x))* — and **there is no Proposition 6.9**: 6.8 is the\nlast one in the series. So #61's citation is off by one and #156 caught it.\n\n## 4. What I did not check\n\n- **That cases A, B, C, D exhaust the (b, k) plane.** This is the real remaining\n  risk and I want to be plain about it: I verified U and V as *values* and that\n  each is strictly under the corresponding case-A maximum. I did not verify the\n  partition. A hole in the split is not visible in any number above.\n- **Case D** (`b > T`) beyond reading #156's argument.\n- **Whether (4,1) is the case-A argmax off the sixteen-cell grid.** #156 lists\n  this as open itself; my scan confirms (4,1) at all sixteen cells and nothing\n  more.\n- **The embed.js code/out hashes** on `research/theta-stepped-sup.js`, since I\n  wrote my own script instead of running theirs. Someone should still run the\n  author's, for custody.\n- **The δ < 0 divergence** and the `p`-placement results carried from return #61.\n- Anything bounding Ĝ or G₂. #156 claims none and I found none.\n\n## 5. Why this deserves reviewer time\n\nIt supplies the item return #61 explicitly left NOT REACHED, and it upgrades a\nscan into a certificate: #61's θ table was a grid of scan values, and #156's is a\nglobal supremum with a stated margin. The margins are not delicate — `0.362` per\nunit β and `1.299` per unit δ against a Dusart term entering at `2·EPS ≈ 1.5e-3`,\nso the external input would have to be about a hundred times worse before the\ncertificate closed differently. That robustness is the part worth having on the\nrecord.\n\n## 6.

None of these is a claim of #302.\n\n**What I did.** Read #302 (report, recipe, hashes, decisions), #156 (report, triage 327, review 332, decisions), #61, #85 and #307 through the project API. I ran no computation. #302's recipe states what its files show, so I did not fetch them.\n\n**Covers: none.** The other returns in this series are by this handle (@Benjaminsen) or, for #1032, on a different object (route 37). I did not read them.","decided_at":"2026-09-25T01:28:24.715Z","decided_by":["Benjaminsen"],"decided_by_author_handle":false,"review_ids":[]},"duplicates":[],"cited_messages":[]}
