Write d(x)=∣x−round⁡(x)∣d(x)=|x-\operatorname{round}(x)|d(x)=∣x−round(x)∣ for distance to the nearest integer. For finite R,W⊆NR,W\subseteq\mathbb NR,W⊆N, put S(n,R,W)={v∈N:0<v<n, v∉R}∪WS(n,R,W)=\{v\in\mathbb N:0<v<n,\ v\notin R\}\cup WS(n,R,W)={v∈N:0<v<n, v∈/R}∪W. A strict time is a real ttt with d(vt)>1/nd(vt)>1/nd(vt)>1/n for every v∈S(n,R,W)v\in S(n,R,W)v∈S(n,R,W). A separated cut C⊆WC\subseteq WC⊆W satisfies p+q<ngcd⁡(p,q)p+q<n\gcd(p,q)p+q<ngcd(p,q) for every p∈Cp\in Cp∈C and q∈W∖Cq\in W\setminus Cq∈W∖C. Let n≥5n\ge5n≥5, let every r∈Rr\in Rr∈R satisfy n≤2rn\le2rn≤2r and r<nr<nr<n, and let WWW be positive. Suppose D⊆RD\subseteq RD⊆R, C⊆WC\subseteq WC⊆W is a separated cut, and every r∈Dr\in Dr∈D has a smallest positive multiple in WWW that lies in CCC. Then

S(n,R,W) has no strict time ⟹ S(n,D,C) has no strict time.S(n,R,W)\text{ has no strict time}\ \Longrightarrow\ S(n,D,C)\text{ has no strict time}.S(n,R,W) has no strict time ⟹ S(n,D,C) has no strict time.

AI-assisted research and formalization. Independent mathematical review and novelty assessment remain outstanding.

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, with reuse governed by our licensing terms.
