Removable vertex for the repeated-distance property

Definition
Erdos9796Mission_RemovableVertex

A vertex of a finite planar point set is removable when deleting it preserves the property that every remaining vertex has four other points at some common positive distance; the radius may depend on the remaining vertex.

Definition code
import Definitions.Def_Erdos9796Mission

/-! The removable-vertex interface used by the Problem 97 descent. -/

/-- A point of `A` is removable when deleting it preserves the property that
every remaining point has four equidistant witnesses. -/
def IsRemovableVertex (A : Finset Plane) (x : Plane) : Prop :=

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.
