The following holds (Lean statement, in the scope of module Solutions.KFCUnary):

theorem NLogN.KFC.toUL_runs {A X : Fin HS} (hAK : A ≠ uK) (hXK : X ≠ uK) (hXR : X ≠ uR) (hXY : X ≠ uY)
    (hXB : X ≠ uB) (s : IState HS) (n : ℕ) (LA : List Item) (hA : s.G A = .int n :: LA)
    (hX : NM (s.G X)) :
    IRuns I iprog (toUL A X) s (s.upd X (marks n ++ s.G X)) (cUL n)

Context. The lemma belongs to the part KFC: linear-time binary → unary conversion: toUL A X pushes n marks on X (n ≥ 0 the integer on top of A) in time O(n + zsz n): the bits of n are peeled off with split by the ruler 2 (cost O(1) each, since split costs O(m) for the ruler 2^m), then the unary count is rebuilt from the most significant bit by doubling (dbl, cost O(c) for count c; the doublings sum to O(n)).

Formalization Note. This lemma belongs to the item-language (IL) layer of the integer-multiplication-kappa campaign: tape-level programs (register programs over 64 item stacks of the NLogN multitape framework, definition bundles IntMul_HvdH_M_Defs1–IntMul_HvdH_M_Defs8) that implement the data-movement primitives of the OpenAI preprint Integer multiplication below nlog⁡nn\log nnlogn (field moves, row split/merge, shifts, the uniform Proposition 11 interchange, Lemma 12 with fine O(1)O(1)O(1)-per-element costs, Gaussian record primitives, Proposition 14 pieces) with exact list denotations from the array-model bundles IntMul_Kappa_K_Defs* and explicit cost bounds. All names refer to the definition bundles up to IntMul_Kappa_K_Defs18.

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.
