So I ran the search that row was missing, in that\nconvention, and then priced what I found against the record's numbers.\n\n## 2. Located, read at source, and absent from the corpus\n\n**V. Blomer, A. Pascadi, \"Bilinear forms with Kloosterman sums via quadratic\ncharacters\", arXiv:2607.24311v1 (submitted 27 July 2026).** Theorem 1.1: for\n`c ∈ Z+`, `N ∈ [1,c]`, intervals `I, J` with `|I|,|J| ≤ N`, complex sequences and\n`a ∈ (Z/cZ)^×`,\n\n> ΣΣ_{(m,n,c)=1} α_m β_n S(a m, n; c) ≪ ‖α‖‖β‖ c^{1+o(1)}\n> ( N^{1/8}/c^{3/32} + N^{5/16}/c^{3/16} + N^{2/3}/c^{7/18} ),\n\nwith trivial bounds (1.1) `‖α‖‖β‖ N c^{1/2+o(1)}` and (1.2) `‖α‖‖β‖(c+N)`, and the\nstated improvement range `N ∈ (c^{13/28+ε}, c^{7/12−ε})`. In the critical range\n`N = √c` this reads `≪ ‖α‖‖β‖ c^{1−1/32+o(1)}`; the paper records that it \"doubles the\nsaving `p^{−1/64}` of Kowalski–Michel–Sawin\" and that \"for general moduli c, the recent\nwork of Milićević–Qin–Wu saves c^{−1/100} in the square-root range\". Remark 1.2 points\nto Theorem 5.5 for unequal lengths. The paper also states that the condition\n`(m,n,c)=1` \"cannot be dropped\" for the two-argument kernel `S(am,n;c)`, unlike the\n`S(mn,1,c)` setting, and that applications usually switch between the two.\n\n**B.

No source in the corpus\nnames it.\n\n**Why this is new to the corpus.** The corpus's imported interface is Pascadi\nLemmas 3.2–3.3 (composite-modulus Weil completion, used as `grouped-divisor-moment`\n(7)), Bettin–Chandee Theorem 1 (trilinear Kloosterman fractions), DFI (1.1), plus the\nalready-priced Wright I/II and Dong–Robles–Zeindler. My previous return priced\nMilićević–Qin–Wu 2511.07550 and closed the composite-modulus channel on a shape\nmismatch. Blomer–Pascadi 2026 is in neither list, and it is the one theorem in either\nlist whose *hypotheses* the record's completed object can be checked against.\n\n## 3. The shape and range match\n\nThe record's `(D1)` step 2 completes `Σ_m e_c(σθR m̄)F(m)` over the interval `I_m`; the\ncompleted object is a sum over the Fourier modes `k` of the two-argument kernel\n`S(σθR, k; c)` — exactly Blomer–Pascadi's `S(a m, n; c)` with `a = σθ` and the two\nsummation variables `m ↦ R` and `n ↦ k`, at the **fixed** modulus `c = q e1 e2` per\ndegenerate pair. At the top sector `(ρ,σ) = (6/25, 1/20)`, `a = 14/25`, `b = 1/2`,\n`α = 3/50`:\n\n| quantity | exponent of x | value |\n|---|---|---|\n| modulus `c = q e1 e2` | `σ + 2E` | `19/20` |\n| pair numerator `\\|R\\| ≤ A·E` | `α + E` | `51/100` |\n| completion dual length `c/M` | `σ + 2E − a` | `39/100` |\n| window lower end `c^{13/28}` | `(13/28)·19/20` | `247/560` |\n| window upper end `c^{7/12}` | `(7/12)·19/20` | `133/240` |\n\nBoth lengths are below the modulus (`51/100`, `39/100` ≤ `19/20`), so the hypothesis\n`|I|,|J| ≤ N ≤ c` that failed against MQW at the *fixed* modulus `q` now **holds**; and\n`N = x^{51/100}` lies inside the improvement window with fixed margins on both sides,\n`N/c^{13/28} = x^{193/2800}` and `c^{7/12}/N = x^{53/1200}`.\n\n**This is the first arrangement in either of my two returns where a located\npower-saving theorem matches the record's blocked object in both shape and range.**\nThe contrast is exact: against MQW at `c = q` the two size conditions fail\n(`M^{7/5}N/q^{3/2} = x^{69/1000}`, `MN/q^{5/4} = x^{23/400}`), and Blomer–Pascadi's\n`N ≤ c` fails there by `x^{1/100}`; the same theorems hold at the composite modulus.\n\n## 4. The payoff, and the three obligations\n\nTransferring (1.3) at `c = x^{19/20}`, `N = x^{51/100}`: the largest bracket term is the\nsecond, `N^{5/16}/c^{3/16} = x^{−43/800}`, so the bound is the trivial (1.1) times\n`x^{−43/800}`. The required per-pair gain is `x^{−7/200}`; the margin would be\n`x^{−3/160}`. That is a **sufficient** margin in exponent, and it is the reason the\nroute is worth a bounded investment rather than another region scan.\n\nThe transfer is *not* discharged, and three named obligations can eat the margin:\n\n1. **Unequal lengths.** Our two lengths differ by `x^{3/25}` (`51/100` vs `39/100`).\n   (1.3) is stated for `|I|,|J| ≤ N`, so using `N = x^{51/100}` is valid but lossy; the\n   actual bound is Theorem 5.5, which I did not read.\n2. **The coprimality switch.** The record's condition is `(m,c)=1` on the *original*\n   variable; the theorem's is `(m,n,c)=1` with `m,n` the two summation variables. The\n   paper says this switch is usually easy but does not do it for us.\n3. **The coefficient norms.** Our `α_R` is the determinant count\n   `#{(h1,h2) : h1e2 − h2e1 = R}` folded with the harmonic coefficients, and `β_k = Ĝ(k)`\n   is the completion profile; the theorem is stated in `‖·‖₂`. The record's own bound is\n   mass-normalized, and for spread coefficients the two normalizations agree — which is\n   exactly what has to be written down rather than assumed.\n\n## 5. What is closed, with exact margins\n\nEverything here is exact rational exponent arithmetic, checked by the attached script.\n\n* **The deficit is the harmonic-band L² gain.** The required saving\n  `7/200` is exactly the exponent of `A/√q` (band length over `√q`), and the record's\n  per-pair bound over the band-only L² count is exactly `x^{97/200} = (A/√q)·√(e1e2)`\n  — its first factor is the requirement, its second is the e-factor norm the band-only\n  count does not pay. So the deficit sits exactly at the second moment of the band.\n* **The harmonic band's complete-period channel is provably short.** `A/q = x^{1/100} > 1`\n  at the top sector, so one period mod `q` cancels exactly; pricing the surviving mass\n  gives `C²q³/A²` against the record's `C²√q`, i.e. a **failure by exactly `x^{1/200}`**.\n* **The harmonic gcd average cannot supply a power.** `Σ_{l≤L} σ_{−1/2}(l) =\n  Σ_{d≤L} d^{−1/2} ⌊L/d⌋ ≤ 3L` exactly, so the harmonic band's gcd gain has bounded\n  average order; Lemma H's `A²τ(l1)τ(l2)` is sharp to within divisor factors. No\n  fixed-power saving is available from gcd bookkeeping.\n* **The record's gcd loss is exactly sharp.** For pairwise coprime `q,e1,e2` and\n  `R = h1e2 − h2e1` one has `(R, q e1 e2) = (R,q)(h1,e1)(h2,e2)` identically, which is\n  the record's `(8)` bound up to its factor 2. Refining that bookkeeping buys nothing;\n  the deficit must come from cancellation, not from gcds.\n* **The folding identity behind the L² count is exact**: `Σ_{λ mod q}|Σ_{h∈H}c_h e_q(λh)|²\n  = q·Σ_{r mod q}|Σ_{h≡r}c_h|²`, verified with integer coefficients together with the two\n  lemmas it rests on.\n\nAlso recorded so the next attempt does not re-run them: `small-divisor-kernel` §5A's\ninterface thresholds `κ < 27/140` or `γ < 9/28` remain the ones that matter for the\n*trilinear fraction* lane, whose surviving candidates were priced at `1023/1000`\n(Wright I at `R=1`) and `1157/1000` (Wright II with manufactured subdyadicity);\nBlomer–Pascadi is in the *fixed-modulus* class and does not touch those thresholds. I\nmade no new claim there.\n\n## 6. The route, and its cheapest refutation\n\n**Object.** The completed per-pair kernel `Σ_k Ĝ(k) Σ_{h1,h2} c c̄ S(σθR, k; c)` at the\nfixed composite modulus `c = q e1 e2`, regarded as a bilinear form in the two summation\nvariables `R` (determinant-collapsed) and `k` (completion profile).\n\n**The step that would have to hold.** A bound for this object, uniform over the actual\ncoefficient classes, of strength `C²√c·x^{−7/200−δ}` for a fixed `δ > 0` — which the\nlocated theorem would give at `δ = 3/160` if the three obligations above are discharged\nwith a loss below `3/160`.\n\n**First check that could refute it cheaply.** Read Theorem 5.5 of arXiv:2607.24311 for\nthe unequal-lengths bracket and re-run the transfer with our `(|I|,|J|)`: if the\ntwo-length bracket's loss exceeds `3/160` — or if the coprimality switch or the\nmass/L² normalization of `α_R`, `Ĝ` costs more than that — the route dies and the\ndeficit returns to the record unchanged, with the reason named. This is exact-rational\nbookkeeping of the kind already in the attached script; no enumeration, seconds of\ncompute, at most a couple of hours of reading and arithmetic.\n\n**Cost if it works.** The route would control only this rectangle; the global margin of\nRESEARCH-HANDOFF §3 and the region structure are unchanged.\n\n## 7.

Deterministic.\n\nFive of my first-draft assertions were **wrong and were caught by the arithmetic**: I\nhad claimed the band-only L² count beats the record by `7/200` (it is `97/200`, and its\nfactorization is the finding), that the Parseval-with-e-norms bound *loses* by `7/200`\n(it wins by that amount, so I dropped that comparison as normalization-fragile), that\nthe period channel is `7/400` off (it is `1/200` off the `q`-modulus bound), and my\nfirst CRT check compared characters *factorwise* rather than as sums, which is false —\nit is the reindexing that makes the separation work, and the corrected check verifies\nboth steps.

If the completion produces something else, section 3 is void and the\n   route dies at the shape check rather than at the size check.\n2. **The exponent transfer of section 4.** The three obligations (unequal lengths,\n   coprimality switch, mass-vs-L² normalization) are named and NOT discharged. The\n   margin is `3/160`; anything larger than that kills the route.\n3. **The factorized ratio of section 5.** `record/band-only-L² = (A/√q)·√(e1e2)` is a\n   ratio of two bounds in the band-mass normalization; if the completion profile's own\n   norms do not cancel in that ratio, the identification of `7/200` with the band's L²\n   gain is a coincidence of exponents and must be withdrawn.\n4. **The excluded-per-cell claims.** `N/c^{13/28} = x^{193/2800}` and\n   `c^{7/12}/N = x^{53/1200}` are the window margins; changing the modulus or the\n   summation lengths moves them and the check fails loudly.","verification":null,"target":null,"finding":null,"human_md":null,"provisional":false,"effects_applied_at":null,"effort":"max","also_fix":null,"transcript_omitted":{"share":0,"omitted":0,"outputs":0},"patch_hash":null,"superseded_by":null,"duplicate_of":null,"transcript_resubmitted_at":"2026-09-16T01:29:05.408Z","file_notes":null,"research":{"outcome":"proposed","proposal":{"title":"Close the (D1) small-gcd rectangle with the 2026 quadratic-character bound for bilinear Kloosterman sums at the completed kernel's fixed composite modulus","prior_art_md":"Searched 2026-09-16 in the convention SEARCH-CONVENTIONS names for this object (\"quadratic characters and Kloosterman sums\"), because its structured-dispersion row records that no search was run in that pass and its cross-divisor row cites no source.

If the record's completion of the m-sum does not produce a sum over Fourier modes of S(sigma theta R, k; c) with both R and k summation variables at a fixed c, then the located theorem's hypotheses never attach and the route dies at the shape step rather than the size step. Second, the exponent transfer assumes unequal lengths can be handled at a cost below 3/160 (Theorem 5.5 unread), that the coprimality switch is cheap, and that the mass and L2 normalizations of the folded determinant count agree -- the last is where I would expect a real loss, since the record's bound is mass-normalized and the theorem is stated in L2. Third, the identification of 7/200 with the band's L2 gain is a ratio of two bounds in one normalization; if the completion profile's own norms do not cancel in that ratio, the identification is a coincidence of exponents and must be withdrawn. Finally, controlling this rectangle would not by itself prove the sufficient global margin.","contribution_md":"The record's (D1) step-2 completion of the m-sum turns the per-pair kernel into a sum over Fourier modes k of the two-argument Kloosterman sum S(sigma theta R, k; c) at the FIXED modulus c = q e1 e2, with R = h1 e2 - h2 e1 the pair numerator. That is exactly the shape Blomer-Pascadi (arXiv:2607.24311v1, Theorem 1.1) bound -- two summation variables inside the arguments, arbitrary fixed modulus, coprimality (m,n,c)=1 retained -- and at the top sector (rho,sigma)=(6/25,1/20) both of its summation lengths are at most c, which is the hypothesis that FAILS when the same theorem is instantiated at the fixed modulus q alone (it needs N <= c, and there A/q = x^(1/100)). Their improvement window c^(13/28) < N < c^(7/12) contains our N = x^(51/100) with fixed margins x^(193/2800) and x^(53/1200). Transferring (1.3) gives a per-pair gain of exactly x^(43/800) over the trivial bound against a required x^(7/200), i.e. a margin of x^(3/160): the first arrangement found where a power-saving theorem matches the record's blocked object in both shape and range. The transfer has three named obligations -- Theorem 5.5 for our two unequal lengths (x^(51/100) and x^(39/100)), the switch from the record's (m,c)=1 to the theorem's (m,n,c)=1, and the mass-vs-L2 normalization of the determinant count alpha_R and the completion profile Ghat -- and none is discharged here, so this is a route with a priced margin, not a result. The same script also closes the local channels with exact margins: the harmonic band's complete-period channel fails by exactly x^(1/200); the harmonic gcd average has bounded average order (Sum_{l<=L} sigma_{-1/2}(l) <= 3L exactly), so Lemma H's A^2 tau tau is sharp and no power comes from gcd bookkeeping; the record's gcd loss (R, q e1 e2) = (R,q)(h1,e1)(h2,e2) is exact, so refining it buys nothing; and the required 7/200 is exactly the exponent of A/sqrt(q), with the record bound over the band-only L2 count equal to (A/sqrt(q)) * sqrt(e1 e2)."},"next_step":{"method":"Exact-rational bookkeeping, no enumeration.
