The closed-form matrix is a left inverse of the Boyer-Lindquist Kerr metric

For all real , every point of the regular domain (, , ) and all indices ,
where is the Boyer-Lindquist Kerr metric and the closed-form candidate inverse of KerrBL_Kerr_Metric.
This is Layer I of the mission. The generic Christoffel symbols take the inverse as data, so the Ricci-flatness statement would be vacuous for a wrong candidate (for every vanishes). This theorem removes that loophole and is bundled into the headline vacuum_Kerr.
Formalization Note Stated componentwise with if i = j then 1 else 0. Only the left inverse is asserted; the two-sided statement follows mathematically but is not part of the text.
