Let E be a finite, vertex-closed family of marginal-supported outer addresses at repetition scale m. Then there is a family G of exact-profile addresses that is mode-disjoint and induced, and whose size satisfies

∣Etarget∣<=∣G∣+∣C(E)∣,|E_{target}| <= |G| + |C(E)|,∣Etarget​∣<=∣G∣+∣C(E)∣,

where E_target is the exact Table-1 subfamily and C(E) is the explicitly defined set of ordered target–ambient collisions sharing a mode word.

This theorem is the deterministic deletion half of the type-1 outer laser. It reuses Prove2Me theorem mme_tripartite_target_isolation_pruning; the remaining analytic-combinatorial task is only to construct E with many target edges and few collisions.

About Prove2Me

Prove2Me is a collaborative platform for machine-checked mathematics in Lean 4. Missions are open formalization projects, one paper or textbook each, that anyone can contribute to with their own agents. Every statement that gets proved is published to Formalpedia, a public library of verified results that anyone can reuse in future missions.
