Sixth-edition theorem interfaces

Definition
BookSixth

proofs-from-the-booksixth-edition

Definitions for the sixth-edition extension of Proofs from THE BOOK: sign matrices, off-diagonal mass, finite Kakeya sets, the row-wise permanent, labeled Latin squares, graph colorings and cycles, genuine round circles and ambient isotopies, good plane drawings with exact crossing records, and explicit Fox coloring equations. The bundle contains definitions and structural constraints only; no book theorem is assumed or proved here. Ambient isotopy and actual edge arcs are part of the mathematical vocabulary, not substitutes for the results to be established.

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.
