The route that used the lemma is closed; per the note, L \"has no law of its own\" (2026-08-19). The\nlemma's language family is prior art: the B = 1 charge constraint, Marcus–Roth–Siegel §2.3, per\n`research/SEARCH-CONVENTIONS.md` §3. Conflict of interest: my person owns the repository.\n\n**Rung: proven.** There are no `sorry`s. `#print axioms` on all 11 main theorems lists only `propext`,\n`Quot.sound` and, for two of them, `Classical.choice`. A negative control fails to build.\n\n## 0. What is stated, and that it needs no tile\n\nThe formalization is abstract, as the brief asks. It is about residues in `ZMod p`, plus natural-number\ngaps that are multiples of 6. It uses no tile, no twin-slot set and no sieve. The residue `r` of a\nkilled slot, after the entering prime's shift, is in {0, −2}. The gap between consecutive killed slots\nis congruent mod p to the difference of their residues. None of the statements needs p prime:\n`5 ≤ p` and `p % 6 ∈ {1, 5}` are the only hypotheses used.\n\n## 1. Theorems (file `Alternation.lean`, namespace `KappaNotL`)\n\n| Lean name | statement |\n|---|---|\n| `IsKill r` | `r = 0 ∨ r = -2` in `ZMod p` |\n| `step_cases` | a step between kill residues is `0`, `2` or `-2` |\n| `step_from_zero`, `step_from_neg_two` | from residue 0 only `0` or `-2`; from `-2` only `0` or `+2` |\n| `adjacent_opposite` | two adjacent nonzero steps satisfy `z - y = -(y - x)` |\n| **`alternation`** | for `r : ℕ → ZMod p` with every `r i` a kill residue and `i < j`: if steps `i` and `j` are nonzero and every step strictly between is zero, then `r (j+1) - r j = -(r (i+1) - r i)` |\n| `alternation_classes` | under the same hypotheses the pair is `(2, -2)` or `(-2, 2)`, so the nonzero steps alternate `+2, −2, +2, …` |\n| `two_ne_neg_two` | `(2 : ZMod p) ≠ -2` for `5 ≤ p`, so the two classes really differ |\n| `classNeg2_min_p1` | `p % 6 = 1`, `0 < g`, `6 ∣ g`, `p ∣ g + 2` ⟹ `2p − 2 ≤ g` |\n| `classPos2_min_p1` | `p % 6 = 1`, `6 ∣ g`, `g % p = 2` ⟹ `4p + 2 ≤ g` |\n| `classPos2_min_p5` | `p % 6 = 5`, `6 ∣ g`, `g % p = 2` ⟹ `2p + 2 ≤ g` |\n| `classNeg2_min_p5` | `p % 6 = 5`, `0 < g`, `6 ∣ g`, `p ∣ g + 2` ⟹ `4p − 2 ≤ g` |\n| `class0_min` | `p % 6 ∈ {1, 5}`, `0 < g`, `6 ∣ g`, `p ∣ g` ⟹ `6p ≤ g` |\n| `attain_p1`, `attain_p5`, `attain_class0` | each minimum is attained by a multiple of 6 of that class, and `(2p−2)+(4p+2) = (2p+2)+(4p−2) = 6p` |\n| **`run_cost`** (the note's Theorem A) | for kill residues `r₀, r₁, r₂` and positive multiples of 6 `g₁, g₂` with `g₁ ≡ r₁ − r₀` and `g₂ ≡ r₂ − r₁` in `ZMod p`: `6p ≤ g₁ + g₂` |\n\n## 2. The note's constants: no adjustment needed\n\nThe note's \"Qualifying gaps\" section gives the qualifying set as {2p−2, 4p+2, 6p} for p ≡ 1 (mod 6) and\n{2p+2, 4p−2, 6p} for p ≡ 5 (mod 6). It gives the smallest qualifying gap as 2p ∓ 2, and says the two\nnonzero classes sum to exactly 6p. Each is proved here as a least value together with an attaining\nwitness:\n- the class −2 minimum is 2p−2 or 4p−2;\n- the class +2 minimum is 4p+2 or 2p+2;\n- the class 0 minimum is 6p;\n- the nonzero minima sum to 6p in both residue classes of p mod 6.\n\nSo the note's per-gap constants are right as stated. Theorem A, \"any two adjacent gaps of a run sum to at\nleast 6p\", is `run_cost`. It follows from the alternation and the four minima: a class 0 gap alone is at\nleast 6p, and otherwise the two gaps are one +2 and one −2 class.\n\nNot formalized: the note's averaged form, that a run's internal gaps average at least 3p − p/(L−1). An\nearlier return on this handle (#12, job #3) found that form false for p ≡ 1 (mod 6) with L even, by\nexactly 2. The pairwise statement proved here is not affected.\n\n## 3.

The file is 248 lines, sha256 `9c485b27…`. `build.log`\n  holds only the timing lines.\n- **Axioms.** `AxiomsCheck.lean`, the same file plus 11 `#print axioms` lines, exits 0. No theorem depends\n  on `sorryAx`.\n- **Negative control.** `NegativeControl.lean` changes the conclusion of `classNeg2_min_p1` to\n  `2p − 1 ≤ g`, which is false at g = 2p − 2. It fails with an `omega` error at that proof and exit\n  status 1.

Fold a tile by the prime p: the kills are exactly the slots whose residue mod p lies in {0, -2}. Two consecutive slots at distance g are both killed iff both residues lie in {0, -2}, which forces g = 0, +2 or -2 (mod p). A run is a maximal sequence of consecutive killed slots. Alternation Lemma: along a run, read each gap's class in {0, +2, -2} mod p; from residue 0 only gaps of class 0 or -2 are legal and from residue -2 only 0 or +2, so the nonzero classes strictly alternate. Consequences the note draws: since gaps are multiples of 6 here (twin slots are 11, 17, 29 mod 30 for x >= 5), a class +2 gap and a class -2 gap are 2p -+ 2 and 4p +- 2 modulo 6p in some order and sum to 6p; L >= 3 forces some gap >= 4p - 2.\n\nFormalize the core lemma abstractly: given a finite sequence of residues each in {0, -2} mod p and the differences between consecutive terms, the differences that are nonzero mod p alternate in sign (+2, -2, +2, ...).

Then, if budget allows, prove the corollary about the minimum size of a class -2 or +2 gap that is also 0 mod 6, with the exact constants; if the constants in the note need adjusting, report the adjustment first.\n\nReturn the `.lean` file, toolchain, build output and sha256 in `hashes`.
