{"id":556,"job_id":1279,"problem_id":1,"lane_id":3,"type":"explore","user_id":36,"model":"gpt-5.6-sol","provider":"openai","report_md":"# Job 1279 report: a second-order statistic that the retained census cannot decide\n\n## Result\n\nI designed and froze one finite statistic, but did not run it on prime data because the required ordered word is not among the retained artifacts and this assignment forbids rerunning the original census. The design is immediately executable if that existing word is located.\n\nThe statistic asks whether route 17's uniform within-transition-table path law misses second-order structure in the actual marked `x=19` half-path. It is empirical conditional mutual information\n\n```text\nI_hat(Y_i; Y_{i+2} | Y_{i+1})\n```\n\nreported as the likelihood-ratio scale `G2 = 2 * 189336 * I_hat`. It uses the three route 17 states `{1,2,4}` and the marked endpoints `4 -> 1`.\n\nThe decision it informs is narrow and concrete. If the actual path lies in the upper 1% of exact controls, route 17 should preserve a higher-order path feature before its next `A2` comparison is interpreted. Otherwise this statistic provides no detected reason to complicate that model at `x=19`, and this refinement stops.\n\n## Why the retained census cannot decide it\n\nThe pinned `input1071.json` has only `x`, period, slot count, `A1`, `A2`, and the full gap histogram. It contains no ordered gaps, state path, transition table, or triple counts. Route 14 return 438 independently records that its source author had no ordered or sparse maps in that session.\n\nThere is an exact small witness, even after fixing more information than the census keeps. Start at state 4 and use the two half-paths\n\n```text\nA = (4,1,1,1,2,1),  from gap residues (2,0,0,1,4)\nB = (4,1,2,1,1,1),  from gap residues (2,1,4,0,0).\n```\n\nFor example, the actual positive-multiple-of-6 gap multisets can both be `{6,12,24,30,30}`, merely ordered as `(12,30,30,6,24)` and `(12,6,24,30,30)`. Both paths begin at 4, end at 1, stay in the allowed states, and have the identical complete transition table\n\n```text\nn_11=2, n_12=1, n_21=1, n_41=1.\n```\n\nYet `I_hat` is `0.1308120359` versus `0.4773856262` nats, and `G2` is `1.0464962875` versus `3.8190850098`. Thus neither the gap multiset nor even the entire first-order transition table determines this statistic. Triple order does.\n\n## Preregistered falsifier and matched control\n\nThe preregistration fixes `x=19`, the source checks, exactly 999 controls, seed `1279`, the statistic, and the decision rule before any production value is seen.\n\nEach control is uniform over all distinct state paths with the observed start state and exact observed first-order transition counts. A directed-multigraph last-exit construction samples a terminal-rooted arborescence with its correct parallel-edge weight, shuffles each outgoing edge multiset, and walks the resulting Euler trail. This is a stronger match than a random sign or simple permutation: every control preserves all one-step transitions exactly, while the triple counts and CMI remain free to vary.\n\nWith `B = count(G2_control >= G2_observed)`, including ties, the fixed rank is `(1+B)/1000`. At most nine exceedances records a finite departure. Ten or more records `falsified_no_detected_departure` and stops the refinement. There is no second seed, threshold adjustment, `x=23` rescue, or asymptotic substitution.\n\nThis rank is a discrepancy against a modelled uniform path law. The arithmetic word is deterministic, and the SHA-256 byte stream is reproducible pseudorandomness, so it is not evidence that twin-prime data themselves were randomly generated by a Markov chain.\n\n## Visible scale and cost\n\nThere are 189,336 triple windows. An average conditional information of `10^-4` nats gives `G2=37.8672`; `10^-5` gives `G2=3.78672`. The exact controls determine which magnitude is visible at the fixed 1% tail. With 999 controls the tail-rank resolution is 0.001.\n\nThe implementation is linear in the path length. Ten synthetic transition-table controls at exactly 189,337 transitions took 0.828836 CPU seconds, or 0.0828836 seconds each, with 28,868,608 bytes maximum RSS. The frozen 999-control run projects to about 82.8 CPU seconds; a conservative budget is 120 CPU seconds and 64 MiB. The earlier route 17 implementation measured 0.3647 CPU seconds per richer full-word draw at the same level, so this estimate is credible. The benchmark used no prime positions or census reconstruction.\n\n## Verification\n\n`verify1279.py` exhaustively grouped 9,828 state paths through seven transitions into 3,120 fixed-endpoint transition tables. For every path it computed the exact probability assigned by the arborescence-plus-stack algorithm and confirmed it equals the reciprocal of the table's path count. Deterministic smoke samples also retained the endpoints and exact transition table. The checker output SHA-256 is `a1c1b0d6969f49d5bc3bbb8c14d53720d9667334aac95a78ffcce182b4775174`.\n\nThe production program also rejects a count-only x19 input before sampling, with the expected `ordered_half_gaps is required` diagnostic. Python compilation passed. No production statistic, null draw, wheel scan, or reconstructed ordered word was computed.\n\n## Sources and access gap\n\nBesag and Mondal's exact Markov-chain goodness-of-fit framework supplies the sufficient-statistic conditioning and uniform Euler-path reference law. Papapetrou and Kugiumtzis supply the CMI Markov-order statistic and finite-sample bias warning; their marginal-only permutation is deliberately not used. Jiang et al.'s uShuffle paper supplies the uniform k-let-preserving Euler and last-exit-tree construction. Full citations, inspected sections, searches, and project records are in `prior-art1279.md`.\n\n`/who` exposed no declared holder of the ordered x19 word. Ask 9 requests the exact existing artifact from the route 459 author, with an explicit instruction not to rerun the census. Until that artifact appears, the source gate is the honest stopping point.\n\n## Limits\n\nThis diagnostic concerns one fixed finite path and one within-type model. A departure would not prove a twin-prime theorem, identify a causal arithmetic mechanism, bound `A1` or `A2`, or support an exponent. A nondeparture would only say that this one second-order statistic did not detect a mismatch at the stated resolution. The retained histogram's historical custody is reused rather than independently regenerated.\n","patch":null,"cpu_hours":0.001,"hashes":{"cmi1279.py":"96d6cdf389fd016df6cceee9fcf3659a23ab5c6b77d2e62fcd46c6fdfe7d5bec","prereg1279.md":"4c330aa017364f60461d4250f12edbf1c5e59c6be3d76aafa39428d59f925454","recipe1279.md":"1e5415eecffbcf951b83090d0bc1b375f5e695553109be44f62bce17b799f690","report1279.md":"d7c1e1a939038785e7c5f911bb6e2940a2fe79cf706746bb649e2809fe0ae73c","verify1279.py":"7a47f709de76afea2d9e5f8d67980e2e44308ec5bd48f57358e11db535cf17ec","verify1279.out":"76e59991e9c35836ef012263965749a89c83478268545fb227e2d0f0e87955fe","benchmark1279.py":"45d811c2fc77fb29322a6e0095c475f759a9d75610ceceffe10e281da0b7ae94","prior-art1279.md":"3241506cff79d95eff4ceb233df8e603418df74cd23fbd5b9b2b094c4165046d","benchmark1279.log":"9af2eb97944d6957d6aa65f4cd8b9a364cea91bbf1cdf8c655ed02fdf8982886","benchmark1279.out":"a7b60121904211c8db79d68beee5e8180c0cd900a472df8b1dca64deb7bd5170"},"author_rung":"verified","status":"recorded","final_rung":"recorded","created_at":"2026-09-15T00:55:49.620Z","repo_url":null,"commit":null,"cites":{"files":["daa5d6d095b5986b65e7a4ac501b2fe3a9c572d5f7fc94bcd2e255e63d2ea892"],"handles":["nielsegberts"],"returns":[438,459,467,469,488],"messages":[1773,1774,1775,1776]},"tokens":{"log":"codex","input":267173,"models":{"gpt-5.6-sol":43308},"output":43308,"source":"codex-jsonl","entries":73,"cache_read":8849408,"cache_write":0,"observed_models":["gpt-5.6-sol"]},"paper_slug":null,"revision_path":null,"revision_sha":null,"recipe_md":"# Reproduction recipe for job 1279\n\nNo prime census is executed by this recipe.\n\n## Verify the implementation and the nonidentification witness\n\n```bash\ncd work/route-1279\npython3 verify1279.py > verify1279.out\n```\n\nExpected final line:\n\n```text\nsha256 a1c1b0d6969f49d5bc3bbb8c14d53720d9667334aac95a78ffcce182b4775174\n```\n\nThe checker exhaustively evaluates 9,828 paths grouped into 3,120 fixed-endpoint transition tables, confirms the last-exit sampler probability is uniform in every group, and checks deterministic samples stay inside their exact reference sets.\n\n## Confirm that a histogram is refused\n\nBuild an input containing `x=19`, period `9699690`, and only `full_gap_counts`, then run:\n\n```bash\npython3 cmi1279.py --input hist-only-gate.json --out should-not-exist.json\n```\n\nIt must exit nonzero with `ordered_half_gaps is required; a histogram cannot run this test`, and it must not create the output file.\n\n## Production command, only after the source gate passes\n\nThe supplied JSON must contain `x`, `period`, `ordered_half_gaps`, `source_artifact`, and `source_sha256`.\n\n```bash\npython3 cmi1279.py \\\n  --input retained-x19-ordered-half-gaps.json \\\n  --controls 999 \\\n  --seed 1279 \\\n  --out result1279.json\n```\n\nDo not substitute the histogram file, regenerate the original wheel census, change the seed, add controls after looking, or rescue a failed result at another level.","verification":null,"target":null,"finding":null,"human_md":null,"provisional":false,"effects_applied_at":null,"effort":"xhigh","also_fix":null,"transcript_omitted":{"share":0.16901408450704225,"omitted":12,"outputs":71},"patch_hash":null,"superseded_by":null,"duplicate_of":null,"transcript_resubmitted_at":null,"file_notes":null,"research":null,"research_route_id":null,"verification_plan":{"cost":{"ram_gb":0.04,"disk_gb":0.01,"minutes":0.1,"cpu_hours":0.0001,"judgment_minutes":10},"claim":"The exact transition-table sampler is uniform on every fixed-endpoint reference set exhaustively reachable through seven transitions; the statistic distinguishes paths with identical gap multiset and first-order transition table.
