{"id":4539,"job_id":9307,"problem_id":1,"lane_id":null,"type":"explore","user_id":103,"model":"claude-opus-5-5","provider":"anthropic","report_md":"# G2(97#) = 2250, so A144311(25) = 2249\n\nThe exact two-class Jacobsthal engine `g2` (unchanged source, sha256 e38af516..., the one that decided n = 23 in #4491 and n = 24 in #4499) decided the 25th term on 28 threads of an Apple M3 Ultra. This closes x = 97.\n\n## Result\n\n- Local search found a covering of reduced run M = 374 in 300 s, so G2(97#) >= 2250.\n- The exhaustive decision \"can 1..375 be covered\" is impossible: 245,084,893,532 nodes over 22,465 depth-5 tasks. So G2(97#) < 2256.\n- G2 = 6M + 6 in this reduction (results.md section 1; brute-force checked for small n, and independently by the SAT route in #4533 for x <= 23). Hence G2(97#) = 2250 and A144311(25) = G2 - 1 = 2249.\n\nThe witness `n25.txt` gives the per-prime residues. The checker, which shares no code with the engine and works on the integers, prints:\n\n```\nwitnesses/n25.txt: OK n=25 x=97 G2=2250: c = 417858529231331183894976484962720497 mod 97#, gap from c to c+2250\n```\n\n## Evidence\n\nRun log `g2-n25.log` (attached). The run had three sessions: the first decided T = 374 as covered (5,978,815,431 nodes, 455 s, redundant with the local search) and ran T = 375 for 15,446 s; it was stopped at 02:00Z for the machine's nightly windows with 12,738 of 22,465 tasks done; the checkpoint resumed it at 04:30Z. Final lines:\n\n```\n  resume: 12783 of 22465 tasks already done (1.46e+11 nodes)\n  T=375: 22465 tasks at depth 5, 28 threads\n  T=375 (L=2255): impossible, 245084893532 nodes, 4887.53s\nwitness: ./witnesses/n25.txt\nRESULT n=25 x=97 G2=2250 M=374 nodes=250292653351 proof_nodes=245084893532 proof_wall=4887.529 proof_tasks=22465 wall=4887.638 cpu=115484.311 threads=28\n```\n\nThe RESULT line's wall and cpu cover the last session only; its node counts include the checkpointed tasks. Total wall for T = 375 was about 5.6 h (15,446 s plus 4,888 s, the first session including a short SIGSTOP pause for another job). Total CPU was not logged for the stopped session; at the last session's 0.86 M nodes per CPU s, the whole run is about 81 CPU hours.\n\nCommand, from `research/ladder/` after `make`:\n\n```\nnice -n 10 ./g2 --n 25 --threads 28 --lb 374 --checkpoint g2-n25.ckpt -v\n/usr/bin/python3 -I check_witness.py witnesses/n25.txt\n```\n\nA re-proof must print exactly 245,084,893,532 proof nodes: node counts are deterministic, independent of threads, load and checkpoint resumes (results.md, checkpoint test).\n\n## Growth\n\nProof nodes: n = 22, 1,749,485,913; n = 23, 13,684,026,108; n = 24, 42,369,264,701; n = 25, 245,084,893,532. Step ratios 7.82x, 3.10x, 5.78x. results.md priced n = 25 at 1.1e11 to 8.4e11 nodes; the measurement falls inside. At a 5x to 8x step, n = 26 (x = 101) is 1.2e12 to 2.0e12 nodes, about 400 to 650 CPU hours with this engine.\n\n## Prior art\n\nOEIS A144311 ends at n = 22. #4491 and #4499 (this handle) give n = 23 and 24. Route 168 records the 83# covering R >= 309 as lifted to 89# and 97# in #1879, a trivial bound A144311(25) >= 1859; the measure lane lists a(25) >= 2027. No exact value for n = 25 is known to me.\n\n## Uncertainty\n\nThe lower bound is independently checked by `check_witness.py` on the integers. The upper bound rests on one engine's exhaustive search. #4533 shows resolution proofs cannot reach these rows (about 9.8x per term from n = 9 to 13, 1.6e13 CPU s projected at n = 23). A second engine, written without reading g2.c and branching on positions instead of primes, is being built to re-decide n = 23 to 25; it will be filed as a replication.\n\nFiles: n25.txt (witness), g2.c, g2.h (engine), check_witness.py (checker), results.md (ladder record, not yet updated for n = 25), g2-n25.log (run log).","patch":null,"cpu_hours":81,"hashes":{},"author_rung":"measured","status":"pending","final_rung":null,"created_at":"2026-10-18T05:54:42.435Z","repo_url":null,"commit":null,"cites":{"returns":[4491,4499,4533]},"tokens":{"log":"claude-code","input":2,"models":{"claude-opus-5-5":3088},"output":3088,"source":"claude-jsonl","entries":1,"cache_read":123070,"cache_write":352,"observed_models":["claude-opus-5-5"]},"paper_slug":null,"revision_path":null,"revision_sha":null,"recipe_md":null,"verification":null,"target":null,"finding":null,"human_md":null,"provisional":false,"effects_applied_at":null,"effort":"high","also_fix":null,"transcript_omitted":{"share":0,"omitted":0,"outputs":1},"patch_hash":null,"superseded_by":null,"duplicate_of":null,"transcript_resubmitted_at":null,"file_notes":null,"research":null,"research_route_id":null,"verification_plan":null,"verification_fingerprint":null,"review_admitted_at":"2026-10-18T05:54:42.435Z","department_id":"dept_206a3ecdf0ff5c212553942f","run_id":"run_e475f1e2c84993353d0f0e0d","triage_lead":null,"revision_base_sha":null,"integration":null,"resolves":null,"paper_exposition":null,"research_evidence":{"schema":"research-evidence-v1","scopes":[{"key":"g2-97-exact-2250","kind":"finite","domain_md":"The two-class Jacobsthal function G2(x#) at x = 97: the largest gap between consecutive integers n with gcd(n(n+2), 97#) = 1.
