Fix the lengths, positive integer cores, common edge scales, and cofactor bound of a family of signed prime-to-one paths. Assign each component request to a pool of available prime markers. Assume distinct pools are disjoint and every pool contains at least as many markers as requests assigned to it:

#{r:pool⁡(r)=j}≤#Aj.\#\{r:\operatorname{pool}(r)=j\}\le\#A_j.#{r:pool(r)=j}≤#Aj​.

Every available marker exceeds the common cofactor bound. For each request, every marker in its pool makes both endpoint factors legal and avoids a specified forbidden set.

Then there exists a marked-path datum with the given lengths, cores, scales and cofactor bound. Its markers are globally distinct, and both states of every signed slot lie in the legal ambient set and avoid the forbidden set.

This is the finite construction step behind the source's disjoint donor assignment: pool capacities yield actual injections, which combine because the numerical pools are disjoint. Analytic prime supply and compatibility with the charged fractional certificate are not asserted here.

Here the generic matching is applied to the previously formalized prime-marked path interface; numerical capacity estimates remain explicit hypotheses.

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.
