This is the bounded auxiliary-polynomial statement associated with Senthil Kumar (2026), Lemma 8, using the following explicit variant with the mission's established grid parameters.

Fix a complex period pair LLL, its canonical functions ℘,ζ\wp,\zeta℘,ζ, and ω,u1,u2\omega,u_1,u_2ω,u1​,u2​ with RegularAuxiliaryGridData: the integer map J(a,b,c)=au1+bu2+cωJ(a,b,c)=au_1+bu_2+c\omegaJ(a,b,c)=au1​+bu2​+cω is injective, J(a,b,c)J(a,b,c)J(a,b,c) is a period exactly when a=b=0a=b=0a=b=0, congruence modulo the lattice is determined by the first two coordinates, and every J(a,b,c)+u1/2J(a,b,c)+u_1/2J(a,b,c)+u1​/2 is regular. The grid data also include the usual cardinality, radius and period-translation identities.

Fix an arithmetic model θ,ν∈C\theta,\nu\in\mathbb Cθ,ν∈C, with θ\thetaθ transcendental over Q\mathbb QQ, and a monic g(X,Y)∈Z[X,Y]g(X,Y)\in\mathbb Z[X,Y]g(X,Y)∈Z[X,Y] of positive YYY-degree eee such that, for every integer bivariate polynomial AAA,

A(θ,ν)=0⟺g∣A.A(\theta,\nu)=0\quad\Longleftrightarrow\quad g\mid A.A(θ,ν)=0⟺g∣A.

Let d∈Z[X]d\in\mathbb Z[X]d∈Z[X] and δ=d(θ)≠0\delta=d(\theta)\ne0δ=d(θ)=0. Each of the following 18 values must admit a presentation Ax(θ,ν)=δxA_x(\theta,\nu)=\delta xAx​(θ,ν)=δx with deg⁡YAx<e\deg_Y A_x<edegY​Ax​<e:

g2/4,g3/4,ω,η(ω),u1/2,u2,ζ(u1/2),℘(u1/2),℘′(u1/2),℘′′(u1/2),g_2/4,g_3/4,\omega,\eta(\omega),u_1/2,u_2,\zeta(u_1/2),\wp(u_1/2),\wp'(u_1/2),\wp''(u_1/2),g2​/4,g3​/4,ω,η(ω),u1​/2,u2​,ζ(u1​/2),℘(u1​/2),℘′(u1​/2),℘′′(u1​/2), ℘(uj),℘′(uj),℘′′(uj),ζ(uj)(j=1,2).\wp(u_j),\wp'(u_j),\wp''(u_j),\zeta(u_j)\qquad(j=1,2).℘(uj​),℘′(uj​),℘′′(uj​),ζ(uj​)(j=1,2).

Put

m=⌊N/log⁡N⌋,ℓ=⌊Nlog⁡N⌋,s=⌊N3/16⌋,q=⌊N5/8log⁡N/64⌋,m=\lfloor N/\log N\rfloor,\quad \ell=\lfloor\sqrt{N\log N}\rfloor,\quad s=\lfloor N^{3/16}\rfloor,\quad q=\lfloor N^{5/8}\log N/64\rfloor,m=⌊N/logN⌋,ℓ=⌊NlogN​⌋,s=⌊N3/16⌋,q=⌊N5/8logN/64⌋,

and write Γ(a,b,c)={iu1+ju2+kω:0≤i<a, 0≤j<b, 0≤k<c}\Gamma(a,b,c)=\{iu_1+ju_2+k\omega:0\le i<a,\ 0\le j<b,\ 0\le k<c\}Γ(a,b,c)={iu1​+ju2​+kω:0≤i<a, 0≤j<b, 0≤k<c} with integer indices.

There are constants C>0C>0C>0 and N0N_0N0​, depending only on the fixed lattice, grid generators and arithmetic model, such that for every integer N≥N0N\ge N_0N≥N0​ there are polynomials Aijk(X,Y)∈Z[X,Y]A_{ijk}(X,Y)\in\mathbb Z[X,Y]Aijk​(X,Y)∈Z[X,Y], indexed by 0≤i≤m0\le i\le m0≤i≤m and 0≤j,k≤ℓ0\le j,k\le\ell0≤j,k≤ℓ, satisfying

deg⁡YAijk<e,deg⁡XAijk≤Cm,∣[XaYb]Aijk∣≤eCN.\deg_Y A_{ijk}<e,\qquad \deg_X A_{ijk}\le Cm,\qquad |[X^aY^b]A_{ijk}|\le e^{CN}.degY​Aijk​<e,degX​Aijk​≤Cm,∣[XaYb]Aijk​∣≤eCN.

Their evaluations cijk=Aijk(θ,ν)c_{ijk}=A_{ijk}(\theta,\nu)cijk​=Aijk​(θ,ν) must not all be zero, and the polynomial

P(X1,X2,X3)=∑i,j,kcijkX1iX2jX3kP(X_1,X_2,X_3)=\sum_{i,j,k}c_{ijk}X_1^iX_2^jX_3^kP(X1​,X2​,X3​)=i,j,k∑​cijk​X1i​X2j​X3k​

must yield

dtdztP(z+u1/2,℘(z+u1/2),ζ(z+u1/2))∣z=v=0\left.\frac{d^t}{dz^t}P(z+u_1/2,\wp(z+u_1/2),\zeta(z+u_1/2))\right|_{z=v}=0dztdt​P(z+u1​/2,℘(z+u1​/2),ζ(z+u1​/2))​z=v​=0

for every v∈Γ(s,s,q)v\in\Gamma(s,s,q)v∈Γ(s,s,q) and 0≤t≤m0\le t\le m0≤t≤m.

Scope of the variant: the paper chooses a suitable constant in its third grid side and imposes vanishing at nonperiod grid points. This target fixes the already-established constant 1/641/641/64 and requires vanishing on the whole smaller shifted grid, whose points are all regular. The coefficient bounds retain the required O(N/log⁡N)O(N/\log N)O(N/logN) degree and O(N)O(N)O(N) logarithmic-height scales.

The formal statement encodes the polynomial by its rectangular coefficient family. It states the derivative vanishing for the unshifted function at u1/2+vu_1/2+vu1​/2+v; translation invariance of iterated derivatives gives the displayed shifted-function formulation. Nonvanishing is explicitly after arithmetic evaluation. Only the lattice/grid and fixed arithmetic-model hypotheses are assumed.
