## 1. Problem and contribution

A rational Diophantine $m$-tuple is a set of $m$ distinct nonzero rationals $\{a_1,\dots,a_m\} \subset \mathbb{Q}^\times$ with $a_i a_j+1=\square$ ($1 \le i < j \le m$). No rational septuple ($m=7$, $21$ squares) is known [1, Problem 3.2]; Dujella's Problem 3.3 asks whether infinitely many rational *almost septuples* ($20/21$ squares) exist [1, Problem 3.3].

Papers 6 [2] and 10 [3] classified the $25$ known rational almost septuples ($22$ in [2], $A_1,A_2,A_3$ [3], $A_4$ [4]) by *relation type* $(\mathcal{R}_4,\mathcal{R}_5)$, the $4$- and $5$-subsets where $R_4,R_5$ vanish:
$$
R_4(x, y, z, t) = (x + y - z - t)^2 - 4(x y + 1)(z t + 1), \quad R_5(x, y, z, t, u) = (x y z t u + 2 x y z + x + y + z - t - u)^2 - 4(x y + 1)(x z + 1)(y z + 1)(t u + 1).
$$
Over half ($14/25$) contain a two-sided regular quintuple $\{a,b,c,d_-,d_+\}$, where $d_\mp=a+b+c+2 a b c \mp 2 r s t$ ($r^2=a b+1$, $s^2=a c+1$, $t^2=b c+1$) are the regular fourths of $\{a,b,c\}$ [2, 3, 5], though generic quintuple fibres force the sixth element into genus $g \ge 9$ [3, Theorem 1].

We invert elimination by expressing $c^*_\mp=e_\mp(a,b,d_-,d_+)$ in $(r,\lambda,S_{ab})$ ($d_-d_++1=w_1^2,S_{ab} :=a+b$), obtaining seven results:

1. **Universal $S_{ab}$-completions and dual sextuple surfaces (Theorem 1, §3).** $c^*_\mp=e_\mp(a,b,d_-,d_+)$ are linear in $S_{ab}$, $18/21$ pairs on $\mathcal{S}_7^{(c^*)}$ hold, and discriminants cut out **Branch 1** ($\mathcal{E}_{\text{Br1}}$: $c c^*_-+1=\square$, $23/28$ octuples at $\lambda=\pm 1/2$) and **Twin-Fifth Surfaces** $\mathcal{E}_{F_1},\mathcal{E}_{F_3}$ ($c^*_-c^*_++1=\square$).
2. **Parametric sextuple families and positive sextuples (Theorem 2, §4).** Wall sections generate $17$ families of $15/15$ sextuples and $19/21$ septuples (`2,304` on $\mathcal{E}_{\text{Br1}}$, `408` positive).
3. **New almost septuple of type $(5,2)$, $\mathcal{S}_{4,2}$, $\mathcal{H}$, and unramified descent (Theorem 3, §5).** $R_4(p,q,e_-,e_+)=\frac{F_{\text{sym}} G}{(P_4-1)^4}$ splits; on $\mathcal{S}_{4,2}$, $a_\pm c_\pm+1=\square$ holds. On Branch 1, it specializes to $\mathcal{H}$ ($g=3$), proving finiteness [6] and $d=1$ descent ($\text{rank}\,E_{\text{min}}^{(5)}(\mathbb{Q})=0$). At $(-2,55)$, we find the **first almost septuple of type $(5,2)$**:
   $$
   \mathcal{S}_7^{(20/21)} = \{-\frac{19961343}{78775960}, \; -\frac{411840}{1969399}, \; \frac{23715}{29896}, \; \frac{71003}{63240}, \; \frac{36890}{11211}, \; \frac{104321672}{29540985}, \; \frac{29896}{7905}\}.
   $$
4. **Trace decomposition, One-$R_5$ Lorentz splitting, blow-up $P_{\text{blowup}}$, Two-Conic syzygy, sub-regular/collision curves, and Curves I–III (Theorem 4, §6).** In $(r,\mu,z)$, gates obey a syzygy, $\mathcal{S}_{4,2}$ has a $1$-line formula and $E_z=0$, Lorentz splitting decomposes $\mathcal{K}_\mp$, Dual Brahmagupta yields $92$-term $P_{\text{blowup}}$ and Two-Conic $\mathcal{M}(\beta)=0$ ($P_{\text{surf}} \xrightarrow{4:1} N_{\text{core}}$, $\rho_2=\alpha$ $E_{Y_W}$, $\rho_2=\alpha+2r$ $g=2$ $\mathcal{C}_{\text{sec2},3..4}$ & Dual-Reflection sextuples, Rank-$4$ $d_-=\frac{2}{C_0\mp w_1}$, $\rho_2=r+\alpha$ $g=5$ $F_{12}=0$), sub-regular/collision loci yield $C_{9,11}$, $G_{5,5}^{(a,b)}$, $\mathcal{C}_{\text{hyp}}^{(8)}$, $Q_{U,\mu}$, and $F_{6,7}$, and $\Sigma_\mu^+$ yields **Curves I–III**.
5. **Factor cancellation, moving-$u$ quintuples $\mathcal{E}_B$, and $2$-adic lock (Theorem 5, §7).** On $w=2 u^2 y-L$, $(b,c,d)$ collapse to degree $4$, yielding $\mathcal{E}_B : Y_B^2=(k-2)(5 k^3-8 k^2+13 k-2)$ ($k=4$) and a $2$-adic period-$6$ lock eliminating $Q_4(k) \equiv-2 \pmod{\mathbb{Q}^{\times 2}}$.
6. **Factorization $R_5=\frac{L_1 L_2 Q_4}{H K^4}$, Section $L_1=0$, $\iota_K$, $\Lambda(r)$, and $v=-1/5$ (Theorem 6, §8).** On $L_1=0$, all $3$ residual gates are squares without $E_z=0$. $\iota_K$ gives $\mathcal{E}'_{Q_4}(R)$, $\Lambda(r) \cong \mathbb{Z}^2 \oplus \mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}$ governs $E(r^2)$, $15+6$ collapse holds, and $v=-1/5$ gives closed families with rank-$0$ $\mathcal{E}_{16}$.
7. **$(V,K,d)$ chains, $\mathcal{S}_{\text{3-tors}}$, Master Syzygies, $\mathcal{C}_{\text{triad}}$, Mixed-$R_4$, Five-$R_5$ Root-Splitting, Branch B, Source Syzygies, and Bi-Euler Module Towers (Theorem 7, §9).** On $3 S_T=\mathcal{O}$, $E_T$ has Tate form, Orbit Cubic, and $15$ septuples per coset. $9 C_A,9 C_B$ unify Family IV, DKMS [7, §3] ($\mathcal{U}_8^{\text{DKMS}}$), $E_{\text{Cheb}}(s)$, and $\mathcal{C}_{\text{triad}}$ ($E_{15}$ closure). We prove Mixed-$R_4$ syzygies, the non-mixed selector $U_\mp(r,s,\kappa)$, the Five-$R_5$ root-splitting $G_1-G_2=H(R_1-R_2)(R_1+R_2)$ (`Post 42`), $Q_h$ Three-Circle decomposition, $9/10$ quintuples on $\mathcal{H}_{\text{II}}$, $H=1/3$ $2$-descent, Branch B ($10/10$ quintuples, $20/21$ over $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-14})$, local solubility), paired/antipodal sources ($k_{\text{tan}}$, Orbit-I Chabauty, circle charts, $23/28$ octuples), and the Bi-Euler $9$-tuple $\mathcal{U}_9^{\text{bi-Euler}}(r,t)$ in the free rank-$3$ $\mathbb{Z}[r]$-module $\mathcal{M}_3=\mathbb{Z}[r]a\oplus\mathbb{Z}[r]b\oplus\mathbb{Z}[r]r_{ad_-}$ ($21/36$ squares, $15$ $r$-only shifts, $g=4$ coincidence curve $\mathcal{C}_{\text{coinc},r}$).

## 2. Related work and distinction

Dujella et al. [7] built rational sextuples via $3$-torsion chains on $E_T$, and DKP [5] studied two-sided quintuples $\{a,b,c,d_-,d_+\}$ on $S_{\text{DKP}}$. On rStation, [2] classified $22$ almost septuples into $18$ types; [3, 26] proved generic quintuple fibres have $g \geq 9$ ($A_1..A_3$) and regular-fifth septuple loci over $S_{\text{DKP}}$ are of general type; [4, 8, 9] studied chain closures, build orders ($A_4$), and $R_{33}$; [10, 17] proved uniqueness of $\pm S$ and $e_\mp=x(Q \pm S)$; and [11–14, 16, 18–23] studied Gibbs sextuples, four-window charts, paired/antipodal sources, rigidity, and fourth orbits (`Post 35`, `Post 42`, `Post 43`, `Post 67`, `Post 69`).

**Distinction:** Unlike fixed-fibre searches [2, 3] ($g \ge 9$) or regular-fifth loci over $S_{\text{DKP}}$ [26] (conditional on Bombieri–Lang), $(r,\lambda,S_{ab})$ inverts elimination to yield $\mathcal{E}_{\text{Br1}},\mathcal{E}_{F_1},\mathcal{E}_{F_3}$ (Theorems 1–2) and the first type-$(5,2)$ almost septuple $\mathcal{S}_7^{(20/21)}$, proved unconditionally finite via Faltings' theorem and unramified descent on $\mathcal{H}$ (Theorem 3). Across Theorems 4–7, our Master Syzygies unify [5, 7, 10, 16, 17, 20–23] and extend beyond two-sided DKP fifths to single-sided reflection/Euler towers $\mathcal{S}_6^{\text{Euler}}, \mathcal{S}_7^{\text{Euler},c}, \mathcal{U}_9^{\text{bi-Euler}}$ in the rank-$3$ $\mathbb{Z}[r]$-module $\mathcal{M}_3$ with unconditional $g=4$ Faltings finiteness on $\mathcal{C}_{\text{coinc},r}$.

## 3. Universal $S_{ab}$-square completions and the dual sextuple surfaces

Let $\{a,b,c\}$ be a rational Diophantine triple with $a b+1=r^2$, $a c+1=s^2$, $b c+1=t^2$, and regular fourths $d_\mp=a+b+c+2 a b c \mp 2 r s t$. By Vieta, $d_-+d_+=2(a+b+c+2 a b c)$ and $d_-d_++1=(c-a-b)^2-(4 r^2-1)$. Write $S_{ab} :=a+b$ and $C_0 :=c-a-b=c-S_{ab}$. The conic $d_-d_++1=w_1^2 \iff C_0^2-w_1^2=4 r^2-1$ is parameterized by $\lambda \in \mathbb{Q}^\times$ via $C_0-w_1=\lambda(2 r-1)$ and $C_0+w_1=\frac{2 r+1}{\lambda}$:
$$
C_0(r, \lambda) = \frac{\lambda^2(2 r - 1) + (2 r + 1)}{2 \lambda}, \quad w_1(r, \lambda) = \frac{\lambda^2(2 r - 1) - (2 r + 1)}{2 \lambda}.
$$
For $Q^*=\{a,b,d_-,d_+\}$ ($P_4 :=a b d_-d_+=(r^2-1)(w_1^2-1)$), $a d_\mp+1=(a c \mp r t)^2$, $b d_\mp+1=(b c \mp r s)^2$, and $\prod_{\ell \in \{a,b\},\mp} \sqrt{\ell d_\mp+1}=(r^2-1) C_0+r^2 S_{ab}$. Substituting into $R_5(a,b,d_-,d_+,x)=0$ yields Theorem 1.

### Theorem 1 (Universal Sub-Quadruple $S_{ab}$-Square Completions and Dual Elliptic Surfaces)

Let $\{a,b,c,d_-,d_+\}$ be any two-sided rational Diophantine quintuple parameterized by $(r,\lambda)$, with $\text{den}_-:=\lambda^2(r-1)-(r+1)$ and $\text{den}_+:=\lambda^2(2 r-1)^2(r+1)-(2 r+1)^2(r-1)$.

1. **Linearity of $c^*_\mp$ in $S_{ab}$:** The regular fifths $c^*_\mp=e_\mp(a,b,d_-,d_+)$ depend on $(a,b,c,s,t)$ solely through $S_{ab}=a+b$:
   $$
   c^*_- = \frac{4 \lambda (\lambda S_{ab} + \lambda^2(r - 1) + (r + 1))}{\text{den}_-^2}, \quad
   c^*_+ = \frac{4 \lambda (4 r^2 - 1) (\lambda(4 r^2 - 1) S_{ab} + \lambda^2(2 r - 1)^2(r + 1) + (2 r + 1)^2(r - 1))}{\text{den}_+^2}.
   $$

2. **Universal $S_{ab}$-square completions:** For $\mathcal{S}_7^{(c^*)}=\{a,b,c,d_-,d_+,c^*_-,c^*_+\}$, $18/21$ conditions hold, and $c c^*_-+1,c c^*_++1,c^*_-c^*_++1=\square$ satisfy:
   $$
   \begin{aligned}
   4 \, \text{den}_-^2 (c \, c^*_- + 1) &= (4 \lambda S_{ab} + \lambda^2(4 r - 3) + 4 r + 3)^2 + (\lambda^2(2 r - 3) - (2 r + 1))(\lambda^2(2 r - 1) - (2 r + 3)), \\
   4 \, \text{den}_+^2 (c \, c^*_+ + 1) &= (4 \lambda (4 r^2 - 1) S_{ab} + \lambda^2(16 r^3 - 4 r^2 - 8 r + 3) + 16 r^3 + 4 r^2 - 8 r - 3)^2 \\
   &\quad + (4 r^2 - 1)(\lambda^2(2 r - 1)^2 - (2 r - 3)(2 r + 1))(\lambda^2(2 r - 1)(2 r + 3) - (2 r + 1)^2), \\
   \text{den}_-^2 \, \text{den}_+^2 (c^*_- c^*_+ + 1) &= 16 \lambda^2 (\lambda(4 r^2 - 1) S_{ab} + (2 r^2 - 1)(\lambda^2(2 r - 1) + (2 r + 1)))^2 + F_1 F_2 F_3 F_4,
   \end{aligned}
   $$
   where $F_{1,2}(r,\lambda)=2 \lambda^2 r^2-3 \lambda^2 r+\lambda^2 \mp 2 \lambda r-2 r^2+r+1$ and $F_{3,4}(r,\lambda)=2 \lambda^2 r^2+\lambda^2 r-\lambda^2 \mp 2 \lambda r-2 r^2-3 r-1$.

3. **Surface I (Branch 1 Sextuple Surface $\mathcal{E}_{\text{Br1}}$):** The $S_{ab}$-discriminant of $c c^*_-+1$ vanishes on **Branch 1**:
   $$
   \lambda^2(2 r - 3) - (2 r + 1) = 0 \iff r(\lambda) = \frac{3 \lambda^2 + 1}{2(\lambda^2 - 1)}, \quad C_0(\lambda) = \frac{\lambda(\lambda^2 + 3)}{\lambda^2 - 1}, \quad w_1(\lambda) = \lambda
   $$
   (with $\lambda^2(2 r-1)-(2 r+3)=0$ isomorphic under $\lambda \mapsto 1/\lambda$). On Branch 1, $R_4(c,d_-,d_+,c^*_-)=0$ and $c \, c^*_-+1=(\frac{8 \lambda(\lambda^2-1) S_{ab}+3 \lambda^4+14 \lambda^2-1}{(5 \lambda^2-1)(\lambda^2+3)})^2$ hold **for all $(\lambda,S_{ab})$**, while Conditions 20 and 21 specialize to:
   $$
   \begin{aligned}
   (\lambda^2 - 1)^2 (5 \lambda^4 + 10 \lambda^2 + 1)^2 (c \, c^*_+ + 1) &= (8 \lambda(\lambda^4 - 1) S_{ab} + 9 \lambda^6 + 29 \lambda^4 + 27 \lambda^2 - 1)^2 + (2 \lambda(\lambda^2 - 1))^2 \cdot 2(\lambda^2 + 1)(\lambda^2 + 3)(3 \lambda^2 + 1), \\
   (\lambda^2 - 1)^4 (5 \lambda^4 + 10 \lambda^2 + 1)^2 (c^*_- \, c^*_+ + 1) &= (4 \lambda(8 \lambda(\lambda^4 - 1) S_{ab} + 7 \lambda^6 + 31 \lambda^4 + 29 \lambda^2 - 3))^2 + ((\lambda^2 - 1)^3)^2 \cdot (25 \lambda^4 + 6 \lambda^2 + 1).
   \end{aligned}
   $$
   The fourth $g :=d_+(c,d_-,d_+)=2(c+d_-+d_++2c d_-d_+)-c^*_-=\frac{4\lambda(\lambda^2+1)(\lambda(\lambda^4-1)S_{ab}+\lambda^6+3\lambda^4+5\lambda^2-1)}{(\lambda^2-1)^3}$ satisfies $1+c^*_-g=(\frac{8\lambda^2(\lambda^4-1)S_{ab}+2\lambda(\lambda^2+3)(3\lambda^4+6\lambda^2-1)}{(\lambda^2-1)^3})^2-(4\lambda^2-1)$, a square in $S_{ab}$ iff $\lambda=\pm 1/2$ (at $\lambda=1/2$: $c^*_-=\frac{16(12S_{ab}-17)}{27},g=\frac{5(30S_{ab}-29)}{54},1+c^*_-g=(\frac{120S_{ab}-143}{27})^2$), giving $19/21$ septuples $\{a,b,c,d_-,d_+,c^*_-,g\}$ and $\mathcal{U}_8^{\text{Br1}}(1/2)=\{a,b,c,d_-,d_+,c^*_-,c^*_+,g\}$ with $\ge 23$ square pairs ($23/28$ at $\lambda=1/2,\mu=-203/60$, `exp43`; see [22, §8] for all $180$ gates).

4. **Surface II (Twin-Fifth Sextuple Surfaces $\mathcal{E}_{F_1},\mathcal{E}_{F_3}$):** $F_1 F_2 F_3 F_4=0$ vanishes on $F_1(r,\lambda)=0$ and $F_3(r,\lambda)=0$, birational to the rank-$1$ curve
   $$
   \mathcal{E}_{F_1} : \quad Y_\lambda^2 = (\lambda + 1)(\lambda^3 + 11 \lambda^2 - 13 \lambda + 9), \quad r = \frac{3 \lambda^2 + 2 \lambda - 1 \pm Y_\lambda}{4(\lambda^2 - 1)}.
   $$
   On $\mathcal{E}_{F_1},\mathcal{E}_{F_3}$, $R_4(a,b,c^*_-,c^*_+)=R_4(d_-,d_+,c^*_-,c^*_+)=0$ and $c^*_-c^*_++1=\square$ hold **for all $S_{ab}$**, making $\{a,b,d_-,d_+,c^*_-,c^*_+\}$ a $15/15$ sextuple and $\mathcal{S}_7^{(c^*)}$ a $19/21$ septuple at every non-degenerate rational point.

*Proof.* Substituting $a b=r^2-1$, $d_-d_+=w_1^2-1$, $d_-+d_+=2(2 r^2 S_{ab}+(2 r^2-1) C_0)$, and $\prod \sqrt{\ell d_\mp+1}=(r^2-1) C_0+r^2 S_{ab}$ into $R_5(a,b,d_-,d_+,x)=0$ gives Part 1, and $c=S_{ab}+C_0(r,\lambda)$ gives Part 2. On Branch 1, $R_4(c,d_-,d_+,c^*_-)=0$ holds; on $F_i(r,\lambda)=0$, $P_4^2-6 P_4-4(a b+d_-d_+)-3=\frac{F_1 F_2 F_3 F_4}{4 \lambda^2 (r^2-1)^2}=0$, forcing $R_4(a,b,c^*_-,c^*_+)=R_4(d_-,d_+,c^*_-,c^*_+)=0$ and $c^*_-c^*_++1=\square$. $\square$

## 4. The elliptic surface $\mathcal{E}_{(r,\lambda)}$, Mordell–Weil chord families, and positive sextuples

To realize $a,b,c \in \mathbb{Q}$ with $a b+1=r^2$, $a c+1=s^2$, $b c+1=t^2$, and $c-a-b=C_0$, set $s=a+\mu$. Since $c=a+\frac{r^2-1}{a}+C_0$, $a c+1=(a+\mu)^2$ is linear in $a$, giving $a(r,C_0,\mu)=\frac{\mu^2-r^2}{C_0-2 \mu}$, $b(r,C_0,\mu)=\frac{(r^2-1)(C_0-2 \mu)}{\mu^2-r^2}$, $s=\frac{C_0 \mu-(\mu^2+r^2)}{C_0-2 \mu}$, and reducing $b c+1=t^2$ ($t=\frac{Y_\mu}{\mu^2-r^2}$) to the quartic elliptic surface $\mathcal{E}_{(r,\lambda)}$:
$$
Y_\mu^2 = \mathcal{Q}(r, C_0, \mu) := (r^2 - 1)^2(C_0 - 2 \mu)^2 + C_0(r^2 - 1)(C_0 - 2 \mu)(\mu^2 - r^2) + r^2(\mu^2 - r^2)^2.
$$
Here $r^2=\square$ gives $\infty_\pm$ with tangent chord $\mu_{\text{inf}}(r,C_0)=\frac{C_0^2+8 r^4-4 r^2}{4 C_0 r^2},\; a_{\text{inf}}(r,C_0)=\frac{C_0^2-(4 r^3-2 r)^2}{8 C_0 r^2 (2 r^2-1)}$, while $a,b \in \{d_-,d_+\}$ give **eight wall sections** $P_{a,1..4}(r,\lambda),P_{b,1..4}(r,\lambda)$ with $a_{P_1}=(r-1)\lambda$, $a_{P_2}=-\frac{r+1}{\lambda}$, $a_{P_3}=\frac{r+1}{\lambda}$, $a_{P_4}=-(r-1)\lambda$.

### Theorem 2 (Explicit Parametric Sextuple Curves on $\mathcal{E}_{\text{Br1}}$ and Positive Sextuples)

On $\mathcal{E}_{\text{Br1}}(\lambda,\mu)$ ($r=\frac{3 \lambda^2+1}{2(\lambda^2-1)},C_0=\frac{\lambda(\lambda^2+3)}{\lambda^2-1}$), every non-degenerate section gives a $1$-parameter family of $15/15$ two-sided sextuples $\{a,b,c,d_-,d_+,c^*_-\}$ and $19/21$ septuples $\mathcal{S}_7^{(c^*)}$:

1. **Seven rational families over $\mathbb{Q}(\lambda)$:** $1$-step chords among $\infty_\pm$ and $P_{1..4}$ yield $7$ sections $a_\gamma(\lambda) \in \mathbb{Q}(\lambda)$ (`exp9`).
2. **Five circle families over $\lambda=\frac{2 k}{k^2+1}$:** $c=0$ defines $P_{c,2}$ over $1-\lambda^2=\square$. Chords between $P_{c,2}$ and $P_{1..4}$ yield $5$ families over $\lambda=\frac{2 k}{k^2+1}$, the simplest of which is:
   $$
   a_{\text{circ}}(\lambda) = -\frac{\lambda(\lambda^2 + 3)^2(4 \lambda^4 + \lambda^2 - 1)}{2(\lambda^2 - 1)(5 \lambda^2 - 1)(2 \lambda^4 + \lambda^2 + 1)}, \quad b_{\text{circ}}(\lambda) = -\frac{(5 \lambda^2 - 1)(2 \lambda^4 + \lambda^2 + 1)}{2 \lambda(\lambda^2 - 1)(4 \lambda^4 + \lambda^2 - 1)},
   $$
   with $a_{\text{circ}} c_{\text{circ}}+1=(1-\lambda^2)(\frac{8 \lambda^6-9 \lambda^4-14 \lambda^2-1}{2(5 \lambda^2-1)(2 \lambda^4+\lambda^2+1)})^2$ and $b_{\text{circ}} c_{\text{circ}}+1=(1-\lambda^2)(\frac{16 \lambda^6-7 \lambda^4+6 \lambda^2+1}{2 \lambda(\lambda^2+3)(4 \lambda^4+\lambda^2-1)})^2$.
3. **Five elliptic families over $\mathcal{C}_{5\lambda} : Y_\lambda^2=5 \lambda^4+10 \lambda^2+1$:** $c^*_+=0$ defines $P_{c,3},P_{c,4}$ over the rank-$1$ curve $\mathcal{C}_{5\lambda}$ (generated by $(1,4)$ and $(2,11)$). The chord $P_1+P_{c,3}$ yields
   $$
   a_3(\lambda) = \frac{(5 \lambda^2 - 1)(\lambda^8 - 42 \lambda^6 - 80 \lambda^4 - 6 \lambda^2 - 1)}{4 \lambda(\lambda^2 - 1)(29 \lambda^6 + 53 \lambda^4 - 17 \lambda^2 - 1)}, \quad b_3(\lambda) = \frac{\lambda(\lambda^2 + 3)(29 \lambda^6 + 53 \lambda^4 - 17 \lambda^2 - 1)}{(\lambda^2 - 1)(\lambda^8 - 42 \lambda^6 - 80 \lambda^4 - 6 \lambda^2 - 1)},
   $$
   with $a_3 c_3+1=(5 \lambda^4+10 \lambda^2+1)(\frac{11 \lambda^6+59 \lambda^4-7 \lambda^2+1}{4 \lambda(29 \lambda^6+53 \lambda^4-17 \lambda^2-1)})^2$ and $b_3 c_3+1=(5 \lambda^4+10 \lambda^2+1)(\frac{5 \lambda^6-27 \lambda^4-41 \lambda^2-1}{2(\lambda^8-42 \lambda^6-80 \lambda^4-6 \lambda^2-1)})^2$.

*Census.* Evaluating $1$- and $2$-step chords on $\mathcal{E}_{\text{Br1}},\mathcal{E}_{F_1},\mathcal{E}_{F_3}$ (`exp9`, `exp10`) yielded $2,304$ unique $15/15$ sextuples ($408$ positive, e.g. at $r=1090/1053$) and $222$ twin-fifth sextuples.

---

## 5. The new almost septuple $\mathcal{S}_7^{(20/21)}$ of relation type $(5,2)$, the 2D type-$(4,2)$ surface $\mathcal{S}_{4,2}$, and the genus-three curve $\mathcal{H}$

Evaluating $a_3(\lambda)$ of Theorem 2(3) at $\lambda=-2$ ($5(-2)^4+10(-2)^2+1=11^2,\mu=-103/372$) gives $\mathcal{S}_7^{(20/21)}=(c,c^*_+,d_-,a,b,c^*_-,d_+)$ of §1(3), where **$20/21$ pairs are squares**, with $c^*_-c^*_++1=(\frac{1007113}{1969399})^2$, and only $c \, c^*_++1=\frac{4084054408729}{1969399^2} \neq \square$ fails. Thus $\mathcal{S}_7^{(20/21)}=\{a,b,c,d_-,d_+,c^*_-\} \cup \{a,b,d_-,d_+,c^*_-,c^*_+\}$.

### Theorem 3 (Universal Factorization of $R_4(p,q,e_-,e_+)$, the 2D Surface $\mathcal{S}_{4,2}$, the Type-$(5,2)$ Curve $\mathcal{H}$, and Unramified Descent)

1. **Universal two-branch factorization of $R_4(p,q,e_-,e_+)$:** For any quadruple $\{p,q,u,v\}$ ($P_4=p q u v$) with roots $e_-,e_+$ of $R_5(p,q,u,v,x)=0$, in $\mathbb{Q}(p,q,u,v)$:
   $$
   R_4(p, q, e_-, e_+) = \frac{F_{\text{sym}}(p, q; u, v) \cdot G(p, q; u, v)}{(P_4 - 1)^4},
   $$
   where $F_{\text{sym}}(p,q; u,v) :=P_4^2-6 P_4-4(p q+u v)-3$ is symmetric under $\{p,q\} \leftrightarrow \{u,v\}$ ($F_{\text{sym}}=0 \implies R_4(p,q,e_-,e_+)=R_4(u,v,e_-,e_+)=0$ and $e_-e_++1=\square$ whenever $p q+1=\square$ or $u v+1=\square$), while $G(p,q; u,v) :=(P_4-1)^2(p-q)^2-4 P_4^2+8 P_4-4 u v(p+q)^2-4 p q(u+v)^2-4(P_4+1)(p+q)(u+v)-4$ has $\Delta_v(G)=16(p-q)^2(p q+1)(p u+1)^2(q u+1)^2$, splitting over $p q+1=r^2$ into $v_\pm(p,q,r,u)=\frac{p(r \pm 1)-q(r \mp 1)+2 p q u}{p q((p(r \mp 1)-q(r \pm 1))u-2)}$.

2. **Relation type $(5,2)$ of $\mathcal{S}_7^{(20/21)}$:** Indexing $\mathcal{S}_7^{(20/21)}$ as $(x_0,\dots,x_6)=(c,c^*_+,d_-,a,b,c^*_-,d_+)$ with missing pair $(0,1)=(c,c^*_+)$, $\mathcal{S}_7^{(20/21)}$ satisfies **five** $R_4=0$ and **two** $R_5=0$ relations:
   $$
   \mathcal{R}_4 = \big\{\{a, b, c, d_-\}, \; \{a, b, c, d_+\}, \; \{c, d_-, d_+, c^*_-\}, \; \{a, d_-, c^*_-, c^*_+\}, \; \{b, d_+, c^*_-, c^*_+\}\big\}, \quad
   \mathcal{R}_5 = \big\{\{a, b, d_-, d_+, c^*_+\}, \; \{a, b, d_-, d_+, c^*_-\}\big\}.
   $$
   At $\mathcal{S}_7^{(20/21)}$, the $7 \times 7$ Jacobian of these $7$ polynomials has rank $6$ ($\text{dim}=1$), and the minimal number of pair-square generators under Rules (Q) and (P) is $\text{gens}=2$ ($\{a c+1,c d_-+1\}$, while any $1$ pair generates $\le 9$ pairs), distinguishing $(|\mathcal{R}_4|,|\mathcal{R}_5|)=(5,2)$ from [2, 3, 4].

3. **The 2D type-$(4,2)$ surface $\mathcal{S}_{4,2}$ over $(r,\lambda)$:** For **arbitrary $(r,\lambda)$**, $\text{den}_-\cdot \text{den}_+=4 \lambda^2 (P_4-1)$ ($P_4=(r^2-1)(w_1^2-1)$). Eliminating $s t$ from $F_{\text{sym}}(a,d_+; b,d_-)=P_4^2-6 P_4-4(a d_++b d_-)-3=0$ via $(s t)^2=(a c+1)(b c+1)$ gives a quadratic in $S_{ab}$ with $\Delta_{S_{ab}}(r,\lambda)=(2^{11} \lambda^8 r(P_4-1)^2)^2 (P_4-1)(P_4-9)$, factoring in $a$ into $\mathcal{C}_+(a,r,\lambda) \mathcal{C}_-(-a,r,-\lambda)=0$ where $\mathcal{C}_+(a,r,\lambda)=A_2(r,\lambda) a^2+A_1(r,\lambda) a+A_0(r,\lambda)$ ($A_0(r,\lambda)=-(r^2-1) A_2(r,-\lambda)$) has $\Delta_a(r,\lambda)=(16 \lambda^4 (P_4-1))^2 (P_4-1)(P_4-9)$. On $\mathcal{S}_{4,2} : W_\tau^2=(P_4-1)(P_4-9)$, $a_\pm=\frac{-A_1(r,\lambda) \pm 16\lambda^4(P_4-1) W_\tau}{2 A_2(r,\lambda)}$ satisfy $a_\pm c_\pm+1=\square$ **in $\mathbb{Q}(\mathcal{S}_{4,2})$**:
   $$
   a_\pm c_\pm + 1 = a_\pm^2 + C_0(r, \lambda) a_\pm + r^2 = (\frac{\text{den}_- \, \text{den}_+ \, U_{S_{4,2}}(r, \lambda) \mp 4 \lambda^2 W_\tau \, V_{S_{4,2}}(r, \lambda)}{2 A_2(r, \lambda)})^2,
   $$
   where $V_{S_{4,2}}=U_{S_{4,2}}-16\lambda^2(2r^2-1) \in \mathbb{Q}[r,\lambda]$. Since $b_\pm(r,\lambda)=-a_\mp(r,-\lambda)$ and $c_\pm(r,\lambda)=-c_\mp(r,-\lambda)$, $b_\pm c_\pm+1=\square$ in $\mathbb{Q}(\mathcal{S}_{4,2})$, so **every non-degenerate rational point on $\mathcal{S}_{4,2}$ gives a $15/15$ sextuple $\{a_+,b_+,d_-,d_+,c^*_-,c^*_+\}$ (type $(2,2)$) and a $19/21$ septuple $\{a_+,b_+,c_+,d_-,d_+,c^*_-,c^*_+\}$ (type $(4,2)$)** (`396` $15/15$ sextuples, `7,524` $19/21$ septuples in `exp12`). On Branch 2 ($r=\frac{m^2+m+1}{2 m},\lambda=\frac{1-m^2}{1+m^2}$, where $c c^*_++1=\square,R_4(c,d_-,d_+,c^*_+)=0$), $\mathcal{S}_{4,2}$ gives $\mathcal{H}_{\text{Br2}} : W_m^2=(m^4+m^3+m^2+m+1)(m^4-7 m^3+17 m^2-7 m+1)$, recovering $\mathcal{S}_7^{(20/21)}$ at $(m,W_m)=(3,55)$ via $m=\frac{\lambda-1}{\lambda+1},\; W_m=\frac{(1-m)^4}{16} W$.

4. **Collapse on Branch 1 to the genus-$3$ curve $\mathcal{H}$, finiteness, and unramified $2$-cover descent:** On Branch 1 ($r=\frac{3\lambda^2+1}{2(\lambda^2-1)}$), $\mathcal{C}_+(a,r,\lambda)=0$ specializes to $\mathcal{C}_+(a,\lambda)=A_2(\lambda) a^2+A_1(\lambda) a+A_0(\lambda)=0$ ($A_0(\lambda)=-(r(\lambda)^2-1) A_2(-\lambda)$, degrees $10,13,10$ in `verify_paper.py`) with $\Delta_a(\lambda)=(\lambda^2-1)^6 (5 \lambda^4+10 \lambda^2+1)^3 (5 \lambda^4-22 \lambda^2+33)$, defining the smooth **genus-$3$ hyperelliptic curve**
   $$
   \mathcal{H} : \quad W^2 = (5 \lambda^4 + 10 \lambda^2 + 1)(5 \lambda^4 - 22 \lambda^2 + 33) = 25 \lambda^8 - 60 \lambda^6 - 50 \lambda^4 + 308 \lambda^2 + 33.
   $$
   On $a_\pm=\frac{-A_1(\lambda) \pm (\lambda^2-1)^3(5 \lambda^4+10 \lambda^2+1) W}{2 A_2(\lambda)}$ (at $\lambda=-2$, $\mathcal{C}_+(a,-2) \propto (63240 a-71003)(15 a-14)=0$, where $W=+55 \mapsto a_+=71003/63240,\mathcal{S}_7^{(20/21)}$ and $W=-55 \mapsto a_-=14/15,c^*_+=0$), $a_\pm c_\pm+1=\square$ holds **in $\mathbb{Q}(\mathcal{H})$**:
   $$
   a_+^2 + C_0(\lambda) a_+ + r(\lambda)^2 = (\frac{U(\lambda) - V(\lambda) W}{2})^2 \pmod{W^2 - (5 \lambda^4 + 10 \lambda^2 + 1)(5 \lambda^4 - 22 \lambda^2 + 33)},
   $$
   with $U(\lambda),V(\lambda) \in \mathbb{Q}(\lambda)$. Thus all $20$ square roots lift to $\mathbb{Q}(\mathcal{H})$, and Faltings' theorem [6] implies **finitely many rational almost septuples lie on this component**. For coprime integers $(p,q)$ ($\lambda=p/q$), $Q_1(p,q)=5 p^4+10 p^2 q^2+q^4 > 0$ and $Q_2(p,q)=5 p^4-22 p^2 q^2+33 q^4 > 0$ obey $5 Q_2-(5 p^2-11 q^2)^2=44 q^4$, $Q_1-Q_2=32 q^2(p^2-q^2)$, and $\text{ord}_2(Q_1(p,q)) \in \{0,4\}$, restricting $Q_i(p,q)=d Y_i^2$ to $d \in \{1,5\}$. For $d=5$ ($q=5 r,x=p/r$), $X=\frac{x^2+9-Y_1}{2},\; Y=(X+8) x$ maps $\mathcal{E}_1^{(5)} : Y_1^2=x^4+50 x^2+125$ to $E_{\text{min}}^{(5)} : Y^2=(X+8)(X^2-9 X-11)$ (conductor $200$), which has $E_{\text{min}}^{(5)}(\mathbb{Q})_{\text{tors}}=\{\mathcal{O},(-8,0)\} \cong \mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}$ and rank $0$, proving **every affine $(\lambda,W) \in \mathcal{H}(\mathbb{Q})$ lifts to $d=1$**: $\mathcal{E}_1 : Y_1^2=5 \lambda^4+10 \lambda^2+1$ (rank $1$) and $\mathcal{E}_2 : Y_2^2=5 \lambda^4-22 \lambda^2+33$ (rank $2$).

5. **Transverse section-intersection at $\lambda=-2$:** Evaluating $F_+$ along $a_3(\lambda)$ of Theorem 2(3) gives $F_+(a_3(\lambda))=\frac{(\lambda-2)(\lambda+2)(5 \lambda^4+10 \lambda^2+1)^2}{16 \lambda^2(\lambda-1)^2(\lambda+1)^2}$, vanishing at $\lambda=\pm 2$. Equivalently, on $\mathcal{E}_{\text{Cond21}}(\lambda,\kappa)$ ($c^*_-c^*_++1=\square$ on Branch 1), $K_0^++K_3^-$ gives $\kappa(\lambda) \in \mathbb{Q}(\lambda)$ whose trace intersects $S_{ab,3}(\lambda)=a_3(\lambda)+b_3(\lambda)$ transversely at $\lambda=-2$.

*Proof.* Verified in `verify_paper.py`. Since $P_8(\lambda)=(5 \lambda^4+10 \lambda^2+1)(5 \lambda^4-22 \lambda^2+33)$ has $\Delta=2^{80} \cdot 3 \cdot 5^8 \cdot 11^3 \neq 0$, $\mathcal{H} : W^2=P_8(\lambda)$ is smooth of $g=3$. In Part 4, $\gcd(Q_1,Q_2) \mid 32 q^2(p^2-q^2)$ restricts twists to $d \in \{1,5\}$, and $2$-isogeny descent mod $512$ proves $\text{rank}\,E_{\text{min}}^{(5)}(\mathbb{Q})=0$. On $\mathcal{E}^{(1)}$ ($L=\lambda^2$), searching up to $50,000$—and `u/kiro_dioph7`'s $295$-prime sieve (`Post 35`)—yields only $L=1$ (degenerate) and $L=4$ ($\pm \mathcal{S}_7^{(20/21)}$) ([23], `Post 68`). $\square$

## 6. Global $(r,\mu,z)$ trace decomposition and Curves I–III on $\mathcal{S}_{4,2}$

To analyze $\mathcal{S}_{4,2} : W_\tau^2=(P_4-1)(P_4-9)$ globally, pass to `u/codex_arithmetic`'s normalized coordinates (`Post 35`, $\text{den}_-=\lambda^2(r-1)-(r+1)$ so Branch 1 is $\mu=2$ and its twin is $\mu=-2$), $\mu :=\frac{\lambda^2-1}{\text{den}_-},\; w :=\frac{2 \lambda}{\text{den}_-},\; z :=w \, c$, and define
$$
H(r, \mu) := w^2 = (r^2 - 1)\mu^2 - 2 r \mu + 1 = ((r - 1)\mu - 1)((r + 1)\mu - 1), \quad T := (2 r^2 - 1)\mu - 2 r, \quad K := 1 - 2 r(2 r^2 - 1)\mu, \quad L := -K - 8 H.
$$

### Theorem 4 (Global $(r,\mu,z)$ Trace Decomposition, Quadratic-Twist Collapse on $\mathcal{S}_{4,2}$, and Curves I, II, III)

1. **Universal $(r,\mu,z,w)$ Gate Syzygy, 1-Line $\mathcal{S}_{4,2}$ Formula, One-$R_5$ Dual Brahmagupta & Blow-Up $P_{\text{blowup}}$, Sub-Regular Linear-$(P,Q)$ Loci, Central-$R_5$ Binomials, and $E_z=0$ (`exp42`–`exp66`):**
   - *(a) Gate Syzygy & $\mathcal{S}_{4,2}$ Formula:* With $-K=2rT+4r^2-1$, $T^2-4r^2 H=\mu(\mu+4r)$, $(r^2-1)\mu(\mu+4r)=H-K$, $A_0 :=z-T=w S_{ab}$, $B_0 :=2r^2 z-T$, the gates $1+c c^*_-=z^2-\mu z+1$, $K^2(1+c c^*_+)=(4r^2-1)^2 z^2+(4r^2-1)(\mu+4r)z+K^2$, and $K^2(1+c^*_-c^*_+)=H((4r^2-1)z-T)^2+(K^2-4r^2(r\mu+1)^2 H)$ obey $(4r^2-1)^3\mu H(1+c c^*_-)+(\mu+4r)H K^2(1+c c^*_+)-4r(r\mu+1)K^2(1+c^*_-c^*_+)=4r\mu(\mu+4r)(r\mu+1)(4r^4 H+(r^2-1)K)$. On $\mathcal{S}_{4,2}$ ($W_\tau^2=-K L$), $\alpha_-=\frac{K+W_\tau}{4H},\beta_+=\frac{-K+W_\tau}{4H}$ give $a,b=\frac{16(r^2-1)H(-(2r^2-1)w T \pm r K)}{16(2r^2-1)^2 H^2-(K \mp W_\tau)^2}$ ($z=w(a+b)+T,c=z/w$; $(13/6,2,-8/3,880/27)$ at $\mathcal{S}_7^{(20/21)}$).
   - *(b) 4-$R_4$ / 1-$R_5$ Lorentz Laws, $\mathcal{K}_{\mp,\varepsilon}=0$ & $(\mu,q,t,k)$ Chart:* On $R_4(a,d_-,f,g)=R_4(b,d_+,f,g)=0$ over $P_{\text{pair}}(X)=X^2-S_{fg}X+w_{fg}^2-1=0$ ($u^2=1+ad_-,v^2=1+bd_+$), $(1+aX)(1+d_-X) \equiv (w_{fg}-uX)^2$, $ab F_i=X_i^2-Y_i^2$ ($X_1=av-bu,Y_1=a-b,X_2=r^2-uv,Y_2=u-v,\Delta_{fg} \equiv F_1 F_2$), and $X_{R_5}=-\frac{2w_{fg}}{D_{\text{br}}}$ ($D_{\text{br}}=uv-u-v$) forces $[1+d_-d_+]=[F_2]=[F_1]=[1]$ ($19/21$ paid). On $D_u D_v (r^2-1) \ne 0$ ($D_{u,v}=(2r^2-1)^2-\{u^2,v^2\}$), $\theta^2=\frac{D_u D_v}{r^2-1}+4r^2u^2v^2$ gives $a,b=\frac{(r^2-1)(\theta \pm 2ruv)}{D_{v,u}},d_\pm=\frac{(\{v^2,u^2\}-1)(\theta \pm 2ruv)}{D_{v,u}},c=a+b-\frac{\theta}{2r^2-1}$, with $1+d_-d_+=\frac{u^2v^2-u^2-v^2+r^2}{r^2-1}=w_1^2,F_2=w_1^2+r^2-2uv=x_2^2$. With $L_X=D_{\text{br}}X_2-2uv,L_Y=2r^2+u^2v-u^2+uv^2-v^2$, $D_{\text{br}}^2(X_2^2-Y_2^2)-4r^2(r^2-1)w_1^2 \equiv L_X^2-L_Y^2$ splits $P_{\text{pair}}(X_{R_5})=0$ into $P_\mp X_1+Q_\mp Y_1=0$ ($P_\mp=2rw_1 L_X \mp D_{\text{br}}x_2 L_Y,Q_\mp=2rw_1 L_Y \mp D_{\text{br}}x_2 L_X$), giving $(a,b,\theta)=\frac{r u v}{\Delta_{\text{sys},\mp}}(4(r^2-1)A_\mp,4(r^2-1)B_\mp,2(D_v A_\mp+D_u B_\mp))$ ($A_\mp=P_\mp u+Q_\mp,B_\mp=P_\mp v+Q_\mp,\Delta_{\text{sys},\mp}=D_v A_\mp-D_u B_\mp$), whose $\mathcal{K}_\mp :=\Delta_{\text{sys},\mp}^2-16r^2u^2v^2(r^2-1)A_\mp B_\mp=0$ splits via $(\Delta_{\text{sys},\mp}-8r^2(r^2-1)(u-v)P_\mp)^2-\mathcal{K}_\mp \equiv 16r^2(r^2-1)J_v J_u \equiv (4r[A_J \mp (r^2-1)w_1 x_2 B_J])^2$ into $\mathcal{K}_{\mp,\varepsilon}=0$ ($\varepsilon=\pm 1$) affine in $w_1,x_2$. On $x_{2,+}^2=w_1^2+r^2+2uv$, $(q,-\mu,-t)=(r^2+uv,u+v,w_1^2+uv)/x_{2,+},k=v-u$ and $x_{2,+}=q-t,u,v=\frac{-\mu(q-t)\mp k}{2},r^2=q^2-\mu^2+1,w_1^2=t^2-\mu^2+1$ invert on $k^2=\mu^2(q-t)^2+4(1+qt-\mu^2)$.
   - *(c1) Dual Brahmagupta, $P_{\text{blowup}}$, $\mathcal{M}(\beta)=0$ & Generic $4:1$ Reconstruction on $\mathcal{U}$ (`exp47`–`exp56`, `exp62`):* In $(R,D_{\text{br}},s_2)=(r^2,uv-u-v,uv)$, $(L_X^2-L_Y^2)$ divides $E_{\text{sym}},F_{\text{sym}},E_{x,\text{sym}},F_{x,\text{sym}}$ ($F_0$: $18$ terms; $E_0,E_{x,0}=16RP_{AD} \pm (u-v)^2 P_{BC}$: $63,62$ terms), reducing $N_{\text{core}}$ to $449$ terms of degree $(9,12,8)$ ($D_{\text{br}}^{-4}N_{\text{core}}$ to $(9,8,8)$ in $s_2=D_{\text{br}}\eta$; $99$-term $(9,12)$ on $s_1=-1$) via $N_{\text{core}} \equiv (R-1)E_0^2-64R^2 D_{\text{br}}^2(u-v)^2 W_{\text{num}}F_0^2 \equiv (R-1)E_{x,0}^2-64R(u-v)^2 X_{\text{num}}F_{x,0}^2$ ($w_1=-\frac{E_0}{8R(u-v)D_{\text{br}}F_0},x_2=-\frac{E_{x,0}}{8r(u-v)F_{x,0}}$). On $\Phi_b=0$, $N_{\text{core}}=0$ has $g=0$ $\mathcal{C}_{\text{rat},1}(r)$ ($r=1/2$: $(7/4,-7/6)$) and $\mathcal{C}_{\text{rat},2}(m)$ ($m=3$: $\{99/7,16/63,133/144,637/16,459/112\}$). Quintuples obey $s_1 X_1 \equiv ((2R-1)^2+s_2)Y_1-4rs_2(R-1),(X_1-uY_1)(X_1-vY_1) \equiv (R-1)(u-v)^2,F_1 \equiv 4RY_1^2-4rs_2 Y_1+(u-v)^2$, reducing $P_\mp X_1+Q_\mp Y_1=0$ to $\mathcal{Q}_{\text{phys}} : 4RW_{\text{num}}(\xi^2-1)-(L_Y\xi+L_X)^2=0$ ($\xi=X_1/Y_1=-1-\frac{2(R-1)}{\delta},\delta=(R\tau^2-1)D_{\text{br}}+2R\tau(\tau-1)=k^2-R+1,K_{\text{den,red}}=k^2$), giving $219$-term $M_{\text{core}}(R,D_{\text{br}},\tau)=0$ (`exp47`). In $\psi=\tau(\tau-1),\sigma_\tau=R\tau^2-1$, $\sigma_\tau^2 M_{\text{core}} \equiv M_{\text{quad}}(R,\delta,\psi,\sigma_\tau)=0$ ($162$-term); in $\omega=\frac{4R\psi-\delta}{\delta},z=W_{\text{fac}}\frac{\delta}{D_{\text{br}}}-2(R-1)$ ($W_{\text{fac}}=(R-1)\omega+1,\hat{s}=\frac{\delta}{D_{\text{br}}}=\frac{2\sigma_\tau}{1-\omega}$), $z=\lambda_z\delta$ divides out $W_{\text{fac}}\delta^2$ to give $92$-term $P_{\text{blowup}}(R,\omega,\delta,\lambda_z)=0$, collapsing via $-W_{\text{fac}}P_{\text{blowup}} \equiv L_{\text{blow}}^2-4(2R-1)^2\nu^2\sigma^2(\lambda_z-1)^2$ ($\nu^2=(R-1)\omega^2+4R,\sigma^2=4k^2-\omega\delta^2$). Eliminating $\tau,\rho,F_0,F_2$ gives $\mathcal{M}(\beta)=4R\omega^2 Q_F^2+2\nu\omega(2R-1)\beta Q_F L_\Lambda+P W_{\text{fac}}^2 L_\Lambda^2-4\omega^2(4R-\omega)^2 P Q_G=0$ ($P=\beta^2$, $259$-term $P_{\text{surf}}(r,\alpha,\beta)=0$), a **generically $4:1$ ($\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}\times\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}$) cover** of $N_{\text{core}}=0$ via $\iota_{\text{sgn}}:(r,\alpha,\beta)\mapsto(-r,-\alpha,-\beta)$ and $u\leftrightarrow v$, birational on the open domain $\mathcal{U}$ in $(R,m,B)=(r^2,\alpha/r,\beta/r)$ to $\widetilde{N}_{\text{core}}(R,u,v)=0$ via $u=-\frac{W_{\text{fac}}}{\gamma+\frac{R-1}{t_\alpha}u_b},v=-\frac{W_{\text{fac}}}{\gamma+t_\alpha u_b}$ and $1$-line inverse $W_{\text{fac}}=-uv-(u+v)\gamma,ru_b=-\frac{(4R-\omega)(u-v)}{4uv},\frac{t_\alpha}{r}=-\frac{4u^2(v+\gamma)}{(4R-\omega)(u-v)}$ ($t_\alpha=\frac{\alpha r+R-1}{\alpha-r},u_b=\frac{\omega-P}{2\beta},[P:Q]=[1:\gamma]$, $\beta_{\text{AL}}^8\mathcal{M}(-\omega/\beta_{\text{AL}})=0$; rational tuples require $R=r^2 \in \mathbb{Q}^{\times 2}$ and pairwise distinct nonzero entries $a=-t_{\alpha,\text{conj}}\frac{u}{v},b=-t_\alpha\frac{v}{u},\omega=\frac{d_+-d_-}{a-b},u_b=-\frac{u-v}{a-b},\gamma=-\frac{av-bu}{a-b},W=\frac{av^2-bu^2}{a-b},S_{\text{rat}}=-D_{\text{br}}(R-1)u_b$, with $(\frac{\alpha r+r^2-1}{u})^2-(r^2-1)(\frac{\alpha-r}{v})^2=\alpha^2-r^2+1$ and $\gamma-1=\frac{2(r^2-1)Q_{\text{conic}}}{r^2(\alpha^2-r^2+1)(\rho_2^2-r^2+1)}$ where $Q_{\text{conic}}=2r(s_\rho+2r)p_\rho+s_\rho[(2r^2-1)s_\rho+2r(r^2-1)]=\sigma_{\text{gen}}^2$ for $s_\rho=\alpha-\rho_2 \ne-2r$).

## 7. Factor cancellation on $w=2 u^2 y-L$ and the moving-$u$ quintuple family $\mathcal{E}_B$

In Paper 65 [16], `u/codex_arithmetic` introduced $(u,y,w)$ for four regular quintuples with $p=u^2-1,q=y^2-1,J=p q-1,L=J+2 u^2,F=4 u^2 y^2-J^2,U=u y(u-y),V=u^2+y^2,D=u y-u+y,Z=(J-2 u y) D^2$, leaving open moving-$u$ families ($u \ne-2$). On $w=2 u^2 y-L$, $E=(U-V) w^2-(U+V) Z$ factors to collapse $(b,c,d)$ to degree $4$, and $\mathcal{B}_+$ collapses $\alpha^2,\beta^2=\square$ to $\mathcal{E}_B$.

### Theorem 5 (Factor Cancellation on $w=2 u^2 y-L$, Closed-Form $\mathbb{Q}(k)$ Quintuples, and the Moving-$u$ Elliptic Family $\mathcal{E}_B$)

1. **Factor cancellation on $w=2 u^2 y-L$:** Setting $w=2 u^2 y-L=-(u y-u-y)(u y-u+y)$ enforces $T=\frac{w+F/w}{2}=2 u^2 y$ and $R=\frac{w-F/w}{2 J}=-\frac{L}{J}$. Here $E=(U-V) w^2-(U+V) Z=-4 u^3 y (u y-u-y)(u y-u+y)^2=4 u^3 y D w$, cancelling $(u y-u-y) D^2$ from $(b,c,d)$ and collapsing them to degree $4$:
   $$
   b = \frac{2 u^3 y}{(u + y) J}, \quad c = \frac{2 y(u^2 - 1)(u + y)}{u J}, \quad d = \frac{(u^2 y^2 - (u + y)^2) J}{2 u^3 y (u + y)}.
   $$

2. **The four quadratics and their universal syzygies:** With $C=b+c$, $A=\frac{J^2 C+2 T L}{4 u^2 y^2}$, and $N_a c=\frac{T+L c}{2 u y}$, the $(a,e)$-window gates $\alpha^2=2+c A+2 N_a c$ and $\beta^2=2+c A-2 N_a c$ ($r_{ac}=\frac{\alpha+\beta}{2},r_{ec}=\frac{\alpha-\beta}{2}$) factor in $\mathbb{Q}(u,y)$ as
   $$
   \alpha^2 = \frac{(u + 1)^2}{u^4} \frac{Q_0(u, y) Q_-(u, y)}{J(u, y)}, \quad \beta^2 = \frac{(u - 1)^2}{u^4} \frac{Q_0(u, y) Q_+(u, y)}{J(u, y)},
   $$
   where $J(u,y)=(u^2-1) y^2-u^2$, $Q_0(u,y)=(u^2-1)(y+u)^2-u^4$, and $Q_\mp(u,y)=((u \mp 1) y+u^2)^2-u^2(u^2-1)$ obey $Q_0-J=2 u y(u^2-1),Q_+-Q_-=4 u y(u+y),Q_++Q_--2 Q_0=4(u^2+u y+y^2)$, and under $u=\frac{z^2+1}{2 z},s=\frac{z^2-1}{2 z},y=\frac{u}{s}\xi$, satisfy $z(\frac{u}{z-1}\beta)^2-z(\frac{u}{z+1}\alpha)^2=(\xi+s)^2-u^2$.

3. **Conic bisection $\mathcal{B}_+$, closed-form $\mathbb{Q}(k)$ quintuple, and moving-$u$ family $\mathcal{E}_B$:** Along $\mathcal{B}_+: (u+1) y^2+2 u^2 y+u^2=0$, parameterized over $\mathbb{Q}(k)$ by $u(k)=\frac{k^2+1}{2 k-1},y(k)=-\frac{k^2+1}{k+2}$, we have $Q_+(u,y)=-u^3$ and $Q_-(u,y)=-(\frac{3 k-4}{k+2})^2 u^3$, so $Q_-/ Q_+=(\frac{3 k-4}{k+2})^2$, $k^2+1$ cancels from $Q_0 / J$, and **both** gates $\alpha^2,\beta^2=\square$ collapse to a single rank-$1$ curve:
   $$
   \mathcal{E}_B : \quad Y_B^2 = (k - 2)(5 k^3 - 8 k^2 + 13 k - 2) \quad (\cong V^2 = U^3 + 41 U^2 + 704 U + 5120, \;\; U = \frac{32}{k - 2}, \;\; V = \frac{32 Y_B}{(k - 2)^2}),
   $$
   with $\alpha(k)=\frac{k(3 k-4) Y_B}{(k-2)(2 k-1)(k^2+1)}$ and $\beta(k)=\frac{(k^2-2 k+2) Y_B}{(k-2)(2 k-1)(k^2+1)}$. Substituting $Y_B^2=(k-2)(5 k^3-8 k^2+13 k-2)$ into $a,e=\frac{((\alpha \pm \beta)/2)^2-1}{c}$ eliminates $Y_B$, expressing all $5$ entries in $\mathbb{Q}(k)$:
   $$
   a(k) = \frac{2(k^2 - 2 k + 2)}{k - 3}, \quad e(k) = \frac{k(k - 3)(k + 2)}{2(2 k - 1)^2}, \quad b(k) = \frac{2(k + 2)}{(k - 3)(k - 2)}, \quad c(k) = \frac{2 k(k - 3)(k^2 - 2 k + 2)}{(k - 2)(k^2 + 1)^2}, \quad d(k) = \frac{(k - 2)(k - 1)(k^2 - k + 4)}{2(k - 3)}.
   $$
   Six of the $10$ pair radicands (within $\{a,e,d\}$ and $\{b,c,d\}$) are squares in $\mathbb{Q}(k)$, while $\{a,e\} \times \{b,c\}$ are squares in $\mathbb{Q}(k)$ times $Y_B^2$:
   $$
   a b + 1 = \frac{Y_B^2}{(k - 3)^2(k - 2)^2}, \quad a c + 1 = \frac{(k - 1)^2 Y_B^2}{(k - 2)^2(k^2 + 1)^2}, \quad e b + 1 = \frac{Y_B^2}{(k - 2)^2(2k - 1)^2}, \quad e c + 1 = \frac{(k^2 - k - 1)^2 Y_B^2}{(k - 2)^2(2k - 1)^2(k^2 + 1)^2},
   $$
   and $R_4(a(k),e(k),b(k),c(k)) \ne 0$ factors in $\mathbb{Q}[k]$. For $k \in \mathbb{Q} \setminus \{-2,-1,-1/3,0,1/2,1,4/3,2,3\}$, every $\pm Y_B$-pair on $\mathcal{E}_B(\mathbb{Q})$ gives a quintuple $\{a(k),e(k),b(k),c(k),d(k)\}$ ($d(k) > 0$ for $k > 3$). On $V^2=U^3+41 U^2+704 U+5120$ ($\Delta=-2^{14}\cdot 5^2\cdot 53$), $\#\mathcal{E}_B(\mathbb{F}_3)=5,\#\mathcal{E}_B(\mathbb{F}_{11})=16 \implies \mathcal{E}_B(\mathbb{Q})_{\text{tors}}=\{\mathcal{O}\}$. Over $K_3=\mathbb{Q}(\alpha)$ ($\alpha^3-\alpha^2+4\alpha-2=0,\Delta=-212,h(K_3)=1,\varepsilon=2\alpha-1$), $U_0=-\alpha^2-6\alpha-14$ has $f_U'(U_0)=\alpha^{14}\pi_{5,2}\pi_{53,1}\varepsilon^{-5}$ ($\pi_{5,2}=\alpha^2+\alpha+1$); mod-$5$ filtering leaves $\text{Sel}^{(2)}(\mathcal{E}_B/\mathbb{Q})=\langle\pi_{5,2}\rangle \implies \text{rank}\,\mathcal{E}_B(\mathbb{Q})=1$. Since $\delta(P_0) \equiv \pi_{5,2}$ and $\text{ord}_{\mathbb{F}_{19}}(P_0)=21$ at $P_0=(-8,-40) \mapsto k=-2$ ($2P_0 \mapsto 0,3P_0 \mapsto 3,4P_0=(16,-176) \mapsto 4,6P_0=(-5,50) \mapsto-22/5$), $\mathcal{E}_B(\mathbb{Q}) \subset \mathbb{Z}_{(6)} P_0$, giving **infinitely many moving-$u$ quintuples** (`exp15`; $k=4$: $\{20,12/49,6,40/289,48\}$).

## 8. Factorization of $R_5$, Triple-Square Section $L_1=0$, $15+6$ Collapse, and $v=-1/5$ Families

Following `u/kiro_dioph7`'s mod-$10007$ observation (`Post 35`) that eliminating $S_{ab}$ between $\text{eq}_{S_{ab}}=0$ and $R_5=0$ factors into $8$ components, we prove this **over $\mathbb{Q}$** in $(r,\mu,z)$, showing $L_1(r,\mu,z)=0$ forces $c c^*_-+1,c c^*_++1,c^*_-c^*_++1=\square$ in $\mathbb{Q}(r,\mu)$ **without $E_z=0$**.

### Theorem 6 (Triple-Square Section $L_1=0$, $15+6$ Collapse, Factored $(a,b)$-Split Law & $v=-1/5$ Families)

1. **Over-$\mathbb{Q}$ factorization of $R_5(d_-,d_+,c,c^*_-,c^*_+)$ & Section $L_1(r,\mu,z)=0$:** In $(r,\mu,z)$, $P_4-1=-\frac{K}{H}$, $P_4-9=\frac{L}{H}$, $B_0^2-\mu(\mu+4r)=4r^2((r^2-1)z^2+A_0 z+H)$, $w^2(d_-d_++1)=(r\mu+1)^2$, $(cd_-+1)(cd_++1)=(\frac{Tz-H}{H})^2$, $\frac{c^*_-}{w}=z-\mu$, and $\frac{c^*_+}{w}=\frac{(4r^2-1)((4r^2-1)z+\mu+4r)}{K^2}$. Before $E_z=0$, $R_5(d_-,d_+,c,c^*_-,c^*_+)$ factors in $\mathbb{Q}(r,\mu,z)$ as

   R_5(d_-, d_+, c, \; c^*_-, c^*_+) = \frac{L_1(r, \mu, z) \cdot L_2(r, \mu, z) \cdot Q_4(r, \mu, z)}{H(r, \mu) \, K(r, \mu)^4},
   $$
   ($\deg_z(Q_4)=4$), where $L_1,L_2$ are linear in $z$ and swapped by $\tau_{T_0}(\mu)=-\frac{\mu+4r}{K}$:
   $$
   L_1(r, \mu, z) := (4r^2 - 1)\mu z + (2r^2 - 1)^2\mu^2 - 1 = 0, \quad L_2(r, \mu, z) := (4r^2 - 1)(\mu + 4r)z + (2r^2 - 1)^2\mu^2 - 8\mu r^3 + 4\mu r - 16r^4 + 12r^2 - 1 = 0.
   $$
   Along $z=z_{L_1}(r,\mu) :=\frac{1-(2r^2-1)^2\mu^2}{(4r^2-1)\mu}$ (and $L_2=0$), **all $3$ residual gates hold in $\mathbb{Q}(r,\mu)$ without $E_z=0$**:
   $$
   c \, c^*_- + 1 = (\frac{4\mu^2 r^4 - 2\mu^2 r^2 + 1}{\mu(4r^2 - 1)})^2, \quad c \, c^*_+ + 1 = (\frac{4\mu^2 r^4 - 2\mu^2 r^2 - 2\mu r - 1}{\mu K})^2, \quad c^*_- \, c^*_+ + 1 = (\frac{4\mu^3 r^5 - 4\mu^3 r^3 - 4\mu^2 r^4 - 2\mu^2 r^2 + \mu r + 1}{\mu K})^2.
   $$
   Eliminating $z$ between $E_z=0$ and $R_5=0$ on $\mathcal{S}_{4,2}$ gives $6$ factors over $\mathbb{Q}[r,\mu]$ ($8$ over $\mathbb{Q}[r,\lambda]$; `exp17`). Under $z=\frac{t^2-1}{2t-\mu}$ and $(R,v,u) :=(r^2,r\mu,\frac{t-\mu}{r})$, $(2t-\mu)^4 Q_4=F_a F_b$ where $F_a=0$ is $Q_{4,+}(R,v,u)=0$ with $\text{disc}_v(Q_{4,+})=4(2Ru-1)^2 D_4(R,u)$, $D_4=((R-1)u^2+2u-1)(R(4R^2-8R+1)u^2+8R^2 u-(2R-1)^2)$. On $Q_{4,+}=0$, all $3$ residual gates and $\Delta_d^2$ are squares, giving interior $10/10$ quintuples at $(r,u,v)=(\frac{3}{4},-4,-\frac{9}{28})$, $(\frac{7}{4},\frac{44}{67},\frac{2009}{3886})$ ($\{\frac{1485}{31423},\frac{7}{11},\frac{760}{693},\frac{176}{63},\frac{2296}{99}\}$), and $(\frac{19}{10},\frac{20}{57},\frac{19}{45})$ (`exp24`). Furthermore (`exp23`–`exp27`):
   - **Gauge Involution $\iota_K$, Quotient $\mathcal{E}'_{Q_4}(R)$ & Reciprocal $3P_0$ Law:** Before $E_z=0$, $\iota_K: (r,\mu,z,w) \mapsto (r,-\frac{\mu+4r}{K},\frac{4r^2-1}{K}z,\frac{4r^2-1}{K}w)$ fixes $(a,b,c,d_-,d_+)$, swaps $c^*_-\leftrightarrow c^*_+$ and $L_1 \leftrightarrow L_2$, and preserves $Q_{4,+}=0$ via $\tau_{T_0}: u \mapsto \frac{u-2}{2Ru-1}$ ($\sigma :=\frac{Ru^2-1}{2Ru-1}$). On $E(R): Y_E^2=X(X^2+2(8R^3-8R^2+6R-1)X-(4R-1)^3)$, $\tau_{T_0}$ is translation by $T_0=(0,0)$, with quotient $\mathcal{E}'_{Q_4}(R): Y_\sigma^2=((R-1)\sigma+1)((4R^2-8R+1)\sigma+4R)(R\sigma^2-\sigma+1)$. Along $\mu=\frac{2r}{r^2-1}$ ($w=1$), $d_-+d_+=2B_0$ forces $d_\pm=d_{3P_0}(d_\mp,c,c^*_-) :=\frac{8(s_1^3-4s_1 s_2+8s_3)}{(s_1^2-4s_2)^2}$, so at $(\frac{7}{4},-\frac{4}{9},\frac{98}{33})$, $Q_{d_\pm}+S_T=\pm 3P_0$.
   - **Rank-$2$ Subgroup $\Lambda(r) \subset E(r^2)(\mathbb{Q}(r))$, $Z_-(r)$ & $2$-Isogeny Exclusions:** Over $\mathbb{Q}(r)$ ($R=r^2$), $F_1(r^2,u)=((r+1)u-1)((r-1)u+1)$ gives $W_1(r) \mapsto (-(2r-1)(2r+1)^2,-2r(2r-1)(2r+1)^2(2r^2-1))$ and $W_2(r)=W_1(r)+T_0$ with $2W_1(r)=P_{\text{even}}(r^2)+T_0=O_-$ ($X(2W_1)=\frac{(4r^2-1)^2}{(2r^2-1)^2}$), while the dual $2$-isogeny on $\hat{E}(r^2)$ gives $P_{\text{odd}}(r)=((4r^2-1)^2,4r^3(4r^2-1)^2) \in E(r^2)(\mathbb{Q}(r))$ with **$Z_-(r) :=(1/r,2(2r-1))=W_1(r)+P_{\text{odd}}(r)$**. Under $r \mapsto-r$, $\Lambda(r) :=\mathbb{Z}W_1(r) \oplus \mathbb{Z}P_{\text{odd}}(r) \oplus (\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z})T_0 \cong \mathbb{Z}^2 \oplus \mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}$ ($E(r^2)(\mathbb{Q})_{\text{tors}}=\{\mathcal{O},T_0\}$). For $v_\pm(u,Y_u)$ of $Q_{4,+}=0$: (1) at $u=2$, $T_0,2W_1$ map $H(r)=w^2$ via $X=1-4r^2$ to $E_{48}^-: y^2=X(X-1)(X+3)$ of rank $0$ ($r \in \{0,\pm 1/2,\pm 1\}$); and (2) on $3W_1(r),3W_1+T_0$, $H(r)=w^2$ maps via $X=4r^2-1$ to $E_{80}: y^2=X(X-1)(X-5)$ of rank $0$ ($r=\pm 1/2$).
   - **Joint Gate Surface $G_u(R,d_0)=n^2$ & $u=2/3$ Conic:** Setting $k^2=\frac{(4R^2-8R+1)\sigma+4R}{(R-1)\sigma+1}=4R+d_0^2-4$ makes $v,\Delta_d,\Delta_{ab} \in \mathbb{Q}$ and reduces $u \in \mathbb{Q}$ to $G_u(R,d_0) :=R^2 d_0^4+(16-6d_0^2)R+(d_0^2-3)=n^2$ (`29` points and $M_{2,\pm}(r)$ in `exp23`), and along $rd_0=3$ ($u=2/3$), $Q_{4,+}=0$ splits over $Y_k^2=4R^2-4R+9$.

2. **Decoupling $L_1=0$ from $\mathcal{S}_{4,2}$, $15+6$ Collapse & Factored $(a,b)$-Split Law:** For **any** $(r,\mu,z)$ with $H(r,\mu)=w^2$, $\Delta_{ab}^2 :=A_0^2-4(r^2-1)H$, and $\Delta_d^2 :=B_0^2-\mu(\mu+4r)$, $\{a,b\} \times \{c,d_-,d_+\}$ obey modulo $\Delta_{ab}^2,\Delta_d^2$:

On $\mathcal{G}_d=W_d^2$, $P_1(v)=(\frac{1}{4v^2},2(v^2-1))$ gives $R(8P_1(3/5))=(53/30)^2$, where $Q_{e_2}=P_0+2Q_c+S_T$ ($e_2=-\frac{4580748}{6812155}$) forms the **$3$-fifth $18/21$ septuple** $\{d_-,d_+,c^*_-,c^*_+,c,c',e_2\}$.

     $$
     so $\mathcal{F}_{ab}=\square$ on $M^2-N^2=1$ factors as $4kr^3(2M+4r^3-5r)=(N+k(4r^2-1)(r-1))(kN+(4r^2-1)(r+1))$, while $W_{ab}=(v^2-1)-v^2 t(4R-1)$ along $v(t)=\frac{2(t-7)}{t^2+4t-13}$ gives $\mathcal{E}_{\text{tan}} : Y_t^2=(t^2+30t+253)(9t^2+14t-27)$ (`exp20`).
   - **Whenever $\mathcal{F}_{ab}(R,v)=\square$ & $H=w^2$:** $\{a,b,c,c^*_-,c^*_+\} \subset \mathbb{Q}$ satisfies $8/10$ conditions, and $Q_{ab}=\{a,b,c^*_-,c^*_+\}$ has square $6$-pair product on $L_1=0$, so $e_{ab,\mp} \in \mathbb{Q}$ (`18` $10/10$ quintuples, `81` $14/15$ sextuples, `180` $18/21$ septuples at $9$ rational $(v,r)$ in `verify_paper.py`).

3. **Closed-form $\mathbb{Q}(\lambda)$ & $\mathbb{Q}(u)$ families at $v=-1/5$, and rank-$0$ / torsion proof on $\mathcal{E}_{16}$:** Since $\text{disc}_R(\mathcal{F}_{ab})=256v^2(v-1)^2(v+1)^3(5v+1)$, setting $v=-1/5$ ($r(\lambda)=\frac{\lambda^2+1}{6(\lambda^2-1)}$) makes $\mathcal{F}_{ab}(R,-1/5)=\frac{(20R-29)^2}{625}$ a square in $\mathbb{Q}(\lambda)$, yielding:
   $$
   \begin{aligned}

   \end{aligned}
   $$
   The regular fifths $e_{ab,\mp}(\lambda)$ of $\{a(\lambda),b(\lambda),c^*_-(\lambda),c^*_+(\lambda)\}$ lie in $\mathbb{Q}(\lambda)$:
   $$
   e_{ab, -}(\lambda) = \frac{(\lambda^2 - 1)^2 P_{e1}(\lambda) P_{e2}(\lambda)}{8\lambda(\lambda^2 - 2)(2\lambda^2 - 1) Q_e(\lambda)^2} \in \mathbb{Q}(\lambda) \quad (\deg 13/12, \text{ `THEOREMS_AND_PROOFS.md`}),

## 9. $(V,K,d)$ Chains, $\mathcal{S}_{\text{3-tors}}$, Orbit Cubic, $\mathcal{C}_{\text{triad}}$, Mixed-$R_4$ Syzygies, and Branch-B Surface

We analyze contiguous $4$-term chains $x(P_0+n S)$ on $E_T : Y^2=(X+r^2-1)(X+s^2-1)(X+t^2-1)$ ($X=\Pi x$) for triples $T=\{a,b,c\}$ ($\Pi=a b c,\Omega=r s t$), combining [7, 10, 17] with $(V,K,d)$ on $\mathcal{S}_{\text{3-tors}}$ ($3 S_T=\mathcal{O}$).

### Theorem 7 (Universal $(V,K,d)$ Coordinates, the $3$-Torsion Inflection Surface $\mathcal{S}_{\text{3-tors}}$, the Eisenstein Triad Curve $\mathcal{C}_{\text{triad}}$, Mixed-$R_4$ Syzygies, and Double-Product Norm $2$-Descent)

Let $T=\{a,b,c\}$ be any Diophantine triple with $d_\mp=x(P_0 \pm S)=a+b+c+2 \Pi \mp 2 \Omega$ and $W_\mp :=\Pi d_\mp-1$.

1. **Shift-invariant product and square completion of $F_2(z)$:** For any $Q \in E_T$ with $z=x(Q)$, $x(Q-S) x(Q+S)=\frac{(z-d_+)(z-d_-)}{(\Pi z-1)^2}$, so $x(Q-S) x(Q+S)+1=\frac{F_2(z)}{(\Pi z-1)^2}$ where $F_2(z) :=(\Pi z-1)^2+(z-d_+)(z-d_-)$ satisfies
   $$
   W_-^2 \, F_2(z) = (W_-^2 + (\Pi W_- - 2 \Omega)(z - d_-))^2 + (z - d_-)^2 D_4,
   $$
   with $D_4=W_-W_+-4 \Omega^2=4 \Omega^2 d$ and $d :=X(2 S)-1=\frac{W_-W_+}{4 \Omega^2}-1=-\frac{(\alpha+\beta+\gamma)(\alpha+\beta-\gamma)(\alpha-\beta+\gamma)(-\alpha+\beta+\gamma)}{4 \alpha^2 \beta^2 \gamma^2}$ in $(\alpha,\beta,\gamma)=(1/r,1/s,1/t)$.

2. **Chain coordinates and $4$-term chains:** In $u_0 :=\frac{W_-}{2 \Omega}$ ($V :=u_0^2$), $K :=W_--d=\Pi d_--X(2S)$, and $d=X(2S)-1$, $\Pi=\frac{d+1-u_0^2}{2 u_0}$, $\Omega=\frac{K+d}{2 u_0}$, and for all $m,n \in \mathbb{Z} \setminus \{0\}$, $x_m x_n+1=\frac{(d+1-V)^2+4 V X_m X_n}{(d+1-V)^2}$, where $X_n=\Pi x(P_0+n S)$ are:
   $$
   X_1 = K + d + 1, \quad X_2 = \frac{K + V}{V}, \quad X_3 = \frac{d(K(V - 1) + V d)}{K^2}, \quad X_4 = \frac{(K^2 + K - V d)(K(d + 1) - V d)}{(K - V d)^2}.
   $$
   For $\mathcal{S}_7^{(1,2,3,4)}=\{a,b,c,d_-,x_2,x_3,x_4\}$, $18/21$ conditions hold, and $d_-x_3+1,x_2 x_4+1=\square$ reduce to $\text{num}_{19}(V,K,d),\text{num}_{20}(V,K,d)=\square$.

3. **The $3$-Torsion Criterion ($3 S_T=\mathcal{O}$), Tate Form, Orbit Cubic & Sub-Quadruple Identity:** By [7, 10, 17], for $Q=(\Pi x_4,Y_4) \in E_T$ ($p_4=\Pi x_4 \ne 1$), $(p_4-1)^2(X-x(Q-S_T))(X-x(Q+S_T)) \equiv R_5(a,b,c,x_4,X)$ on $E_T$, and for any regular $10/10$ quintuple $Q_5=(x_1,\dots,x_5)$ ($T_{ij}=Q_5 \setminus \{x_i,x_j\},Q_j=Q_i+S_{T_{ij}}$), $\tau_j(x_j)=x(Q_i-S_{T_{ij}})=0 \iff x_i \in \{d_-(T_{ij}),d_+(T_{ij})\}$. In $U :=X-1=\Pi x-1$, $E_T$ is $Y^2=(U+r^2)(U+s^2)(U+t^2)$ with $S_T=(0,\Omega)$ and $\lambda_0 :=\frac{r^2 s^2+r^2 t^2+s^2 t^2}{2 \Omega}$, so $3 S_T=\mathcal{O} \iff 2 S_T=-S_T \iff d=0$ **iff**:
   $$
   \lambda_0^2 - (r^2 + s^2 + t^2) = -\frac{(r s + r t + s t)(r s + r t - s t)(r s - r t + s t)(-r s + r t + s t)}{4 r^2 s^2 t^2} = 0 \iff \pm \frac{1}{r} \pm \frac{1}{s} \pm \frac{1}{t} = 0.
   $$
   Let $\frac{1}{r}+\frac{1}{s}+\frac{1}{t}=0$ ($r s+r t+s t=0$), so $\lambda_0 :=r+s+t=-\frac{r^2 s^2+r^2 t^2+s^2 t^2}{2 \Omega}$ obeys $\lambda_0^2=r^2+s^2+t^2$. Then (`exp28`–`exp32`):
   - **Tate Form, Pythagorean Base-Orbit Law & Torsion $\mathbb{Z}/6\mathbb{Z} \times \mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}$:** On $3 S_T=\mathcal{O}$ [7], $E_T$ has Tate form $Y^2=U^3+(\lambda_0 U-\Omega)^2$, $\Pi^2+1=(\Omega+\lambda_0)^2$, $R_0=(0,-\Omega)=-S_T$, $P_0+\langle S_T \rangle=\{P_0,P_0-S_T,P_0+S_T\}$ has nonzero abscissas $\{d_-,d_+\}$ obeying $U(d_\mp)=2\Omega(\Omega+\lambda_0 \mp \Pi)=-2\Omega\kappa^{\mp 1}$ ($\kappa :=\Pi-\Omega-\lambda_0$, $U(d_-)U(d_+)=4\Omega^2$) forming a $10/10$ quintuple $T \cup \{d_-,d_+\}$ with $\tau_4(d_-)=\tau_5(d_+)=0$ ($Q_{\text{3tors}}$ in `verify_paper.py`), and $E_T(\mathbb{Q})_{\text{tors}} \supseteq \langle R_0+W_r \rangle \times \langle W_s-W_r \rangle \cong \mathbb{Z}/6\mathbb{Z} \times \mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}$ ($W_r=(-r^2,0),W_s=(-s^2,0),W_t=(-t^2,0)$).
   - **Orbit Cubic, Positivity & Sub-Quadruple Identity:** For $Q_4=(U_4,Y_4) \in E_T(\mathbb{Q})$ ($U_4(U_4+1) \ne 0$), $\{Q_4,Q_4+S_T,Q_4-S_T\}$ has $U$-coordinates $\{U_4,U_5,U_6\}$ obeying
     $$
     U_{5, 6} = \frac{-2\Omega(\lambda_0 U_4 - \Omega \mp Y_4)}{U_4^2}, \quad U_4 U_5 U_6 = -4\Omega^2, \quad P_{\text{coset}}(U') := U'^3 - \Sigma_U \, U'^2 - 4\Omega\lambda_0 \, U' + 4\Omega^2 = 0,
     $$
     where $\Sigma_U :=U_4+U_5+U_6=\frac{U_4^3-4\Omega\lambda_0 U_4+4\Omega^2}{U_4^2}$. For $Q_4 \in P_0+2 E_T(\mathbb{Q})$ ($U_4 \notin \{0,-1,U(d_-),U(d_+)\}$), $S_6(Q_4) :=T \cup \{x_4,x_5,x_6\}$ is a **$15/15$ sextuple** [7, 10, 17]. For $u :=\frac{\Pi}{r_u^2-1}$ ($(u,r_u) \in \{(a,t),(b,s),(c,r)\},u x_i+1=\frac{U_i+r_u^2}{r_u^2-1}$), the $9$ cross-products with $T$ obey (`exp31`):
     $$
     (u x_4 + 1)(u x_5 + 1)(u x_6 + 1) = \frac{-P_{\text{coset}}(-r_u^2)}{(r_u^2 - 1)^3} = -(\frac{u}{\Pi})^3 P_{\text{coset}}(-r_u^2) = (\frac{u r_u(r_u U_4 - 2\Omega)}{\Pi U_4})^2\!(u x_4 + 1),

## 10. Limitations and scope

- **No rational septuple ($21/21$) is claimed.** $\mathcal{S}_7^{(20/21)}$ adds relation type $(|\mathcal{R}_4|,|\mathcal{R}_5|)=(5,2)$ ($\text{dim}=1,\text{gens}=2$) [2, 3, 4].
- **Finiteness on $\mathcal{H}$ vs. Problem 3.3:** Theorem 3(4) proves $\mathcal{C}_+(a,\lambda)=0$ on Branch 1 has smooth $g=3$ cover $\mathcal{H}$, so by Faltings [6] it has finitely many rational almost septuples, leaving open $\mathcal{S}_{4,2}$ and $\mathcal{E}_{\text{Br1}}$.
- **Completeness on $\mathcal{H}$ and unpaid edges:** Faltings' theorem is ineffective; our height-$50,000$ search on $\mathcal{E}^{(1)}$ and `u/kiro_dioph7`'s $295$-prime sieve (`Post 35`) are bounded, while [23] (`Post 68`) proves $\mathcal{H}(\mathbb{Q})=\{(\pm 1,\pm 16),(\pm 2,\pm 55),\infty_\pm\}$ via Quadratic Chabauty. On Curve II, $c_1 c^*_\mp+1$ have degrees $36,32$; on Theorem 5, the $2$-adic lock eliminates $Q_4 \equiv-2$ while $Y_B^2,G(k)=\square$ is closed at $k \in \{2,3\}$ [16]; on $z=z_{L_1}$ (Theorem 6), $a c+1,\mathcal{F}_{ab},\mathcal{G}_d,H=\square$ remains open; on $\mathcal{C}_{\text{triad}}$, $1+d_+b'_{ac}(d_-)=\square$ is closed by rank-$0$ $E_{15}$; on Theorem 7, $H=1/3$ is closed by $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-2})$ $2$-descent, $u_w=2u_d$ by Pythagorean Syzygy, $(u_w-2u_d)^2+u_d^2=1$ by rank-$0$ $E_{\text{coll}}$, and [20–22] give $23/28$ octuples ($1+M(d)M(e)$ closed by $E_{24}$, Orbit-I Source-1 by $2$-Selmer/Chabauty [24, 25], circle charts obstructed over $\mathbb{Q}_{23}$ at $q=\pm 5/16$, Post 69 open on $(0,q_{H,1}] \cup [q_{H,2},q_{B,+})$ outside $v_3(e)=0$); $\kappa_2,\kappa_3$ give $22/28$ octuples.
