A pre-analysis scope correction: my artifact field fresh_coefficients is too strong a name. The generator draws independent row-operation histories and disjoint solution-value ranges, but does not hold out coefficient matrices. Among its96 two-variable evaluation roots,72share a coefficient state with a training root;82share one with an actually visited acquisition state.49overlap original-target coefficient states and61overlap composed-target states. I checked only fixed input/source files, before inspecting any receiving-model endpoint.

I will describe this panel as new-constant two-variable families. The frozen inputs,64-update learners and aggregate contrasts stay unchanged; the48three-variable roots remain a separate structural readout. Any later seen/unseen-matrix breakdown would be exploratory. Saved EVALUATION_SCOPE_ADDENDUM.md and input_overlap_audit.json document the correction. This limits the generalization claim; it does not affect the checked composition certificates. Native development evaluation remains required and unopened.

The receiving pilot is frozen before updates as codex1_obligation_learn_s641841, seed641841, corrected contract digest4ebcc3491936367d98bc69e55eb6a999132795852afda0f14f047ad534941bc6. Each arm starts from the same Warm model and trains64updates, eight uniformly sampled unique state/action pairs per update, full-weight FP32 AdamW1e-6, decay.01,clip1. The objective is summed canonical-command NLL averaged over the eight pairs. Original uses39pairs; composed includes those39 plus the five additional pairs on the new certified paths. This is search-derived expert iteration, not an unbiased on-policy RL gradient or a new loss.

Readouts are fixed:96 fresh-coefficient formal roots and48 fresh three-variable structural roots, six greedy menu actions; and common FP32 greedy2048 native development210,batch8. All three actors (both trained plus Warm) receive the same readouts. Native grades stay closed until all readouts and the inherited ES completion barrier are complete. The source bank used BF16; this learner and every pilot comparator/readout use FP32, a disclosed numerical-interface change shared by the arms. No intermediate endpoint selection.

Each formal learning round deliberately starts fresh AdamW in both arms; exact FP32 final models and full order/evidence are retained, but no final optimizer continuation state is promised. A CPU import-path collision was fixed before GPU learning; the numerical/data settings are unchanged, both draft/corrected manifests are saved, and the all-parameter gradient-equivalence guard then passed. The original-target arm has been launched. This is a small exploratory receiving test, with stronger ordinary RLVR/ancestry/untouched confirmation still owed to any native lead.

One source control sharpens the transport result: a library of transported suffixes from already successful episodes solves26/48 roots; the operator graph using all observed fragments solves40/48. Both use the same192episode bank, same six-action limit, and bound-checked replay. This separates simple reuse of complete successes from the extra coverage supplied by failed fragments.

For the14 additional roots, the starting coefficient state occurs in no suffix of any successful actor episode. Every selected graph certificate begins with an edge from an unsuccessful episode. The successful-suffix control replays a single intact suffix, permits right-hand-side transport, tries available suffixes in a deterministic shortest-first order, and substitutes every accepted answer into the original equations. No control-only roots were lost by the selected graph paths. The extra calculation took0.105CPU seconds, with no new GPU work.

This is an exploratory finite-bank attribution, not neural transfer or a statement about unobserved policies. It suggests a necessary control for any prospective receiving test of the transport extension: successful-suffix transport versus graph transport. No targets or outcomes in the current39/44-pair comparison were changed. The code/result are success_suffix_transport.py, successful_suffix_transport_control.json, and successful_suffix_transport_attribution.json. The control-file SHA256 is e6ac1349c4f97fdfba13bff7ea6991145c2d1ee9c19f622b24e5201f03f18ce6.

A prospective input-design consequence of the earlier scope correction, still before opening any receiving endpoint: the existing depth1/2/4 family generator cannot produce a family with all three root matrices disjoint from this acquisition bank. Its depth-one coefficient support contains only four matrices, and all four already occur in our source roots.

An exact CPU enumeration finds 4, 12 and 76 possible coefficient states at depths1,2,4; acquisition visited4,11,42respectively. Thus merely rejecting any family with a seen matrix would never terminate successfully. A later disjoint-matrix panel needs an explicitly changed design (for example, a reserved deeper-root panel), with the resulting difficulty/distribution change stated. The current new-constant panel and declared analysis stay unchanged.

This uses generator semantics and source states only. It supplies no training labels and says nothing about learner accuracy. It is a constraint on a future confirmation design, not a new capability result.

A separate, untrained representation probe exposes a concrete source of fragmentation in this bank. On the same192 actual Qwen episodes, complete original episodes solve14/48 roots, exact numeric-state composition20/48, and transporting observed row-operation certificates across right-hand sides solves40/48. This leaves the frozen39-versus44-pair receiving comparison unchanged; both learners have finished64updates, and the declared formal/native readouts and inherited completion barrier remain pending.

The transport is elementary linear algebra, not an equality claim about different numeric states. For nonsingular square rational systems, distinct coefficient rows make canonical row order independent of the constants. A recorded fixed row operation therefore has the form (A,b) -> (P E A, P E b), with both E and the sorting permutation P determined by A and the action. Indexing coefficient states permits reusing an actually sampled operation at a new right-hand side while carrying its new constants. This reduces952 observed full states to808 coefficient states. The full arithmetic resource bound is rechecked at every transported step; no selected path violated it here. This argument is restricted to nonsingular systems and fixed recorded multipliers.

An independent CPU audit, importing neither the transition kernel nor an equation solver, reconstructed all98 selected steps with invertible row-transformation matrices and substituted every one of the40 terminal answers into its original equations. All residuals were zero.33 of the40 selected certificates use at least one changed-constant instance. Source collection still costs49.0 occupied GPU seconds; the exploratory graph computation took0.189 CPU seconds and this matrix audit0.023s, with no additional GPU work. All transported instances are marked mechanically derived, not literal actor outputs at those new states.

This is an instance of established state abstraction and proof-state reuse; ConPoLe and Peano are relevant prior art, especially Peano's discussion of history obscuring already encountered states. The useful next question is whether parameterized certificates give a better receiving learner and, eventually, native transfer. No transported target has entered training; selecting this extension requires a separate prospective follow-up. Reproduction artifacts are transport_probe.py, audit_transport.py, NEXT_REPRESENTATION.md, and the saved exploratory report/audit.

The first receiving comparison is complete. All endpoints finished and released, and the inherited completion barrier was sealed before grading.

| Readout | Warm | Original-success targets | Exact-composed targets | |---|---:|---:|---:| | New constants, two variables | 9/96 | 60/96 | 17/96 | | Three-variable systems | 0/48 | 1/48 | 1/48 | | Native development210 | 95/210 | 93/210 | 90/210 |

The composed-minus-original two-variable contrast is −44.79pp, conditional family-bootstrap95% interval [−58.33,−30.21], with3gains/46losses. Composed-minus-Warm is+8.33pp[+3.12,+15.62], while original-minus-Warm is+53.12pp[+40.62,+64.58]. The native contrasts remain unresolved: composed−original−1.43pp[−4.29,+1.43], composed−Warm−2.38pp[−6.19,+.95], original−Warm−.95pp[−4.29,+2.38]. All intervals are conditional on one source bank and one training seed; formal units are families, native units are items,20000draws,seed641842. No native grader errors.

Both learners used64full-weightFP32AdamWupdates at1e-6 with8sampled pairs/update, starting from identicalWarm. Source banks are39versus44unique pairs; adding pairs changes repetitions of common examples. Source acquisition wasBF16; all receiver readouts wereFP32. Total source+learner+readout occupancy2935.8s. The two-variable panel has the previously disclosed coefficient overlap; the native panel is reused development data. No MATH-500 selection or new seed confirmation.

Thus the14→20source-coverage gain did not become a better receiver than original-success fitting in this realization. A first post-hoc trace check finds repeated full states in39/96composed episodes versus8/96original episodes; this describes behavior, not a causal attribution to the five added pairs. I will use a bounded diagnosis to select one substantive receiving/representation revision, rather than claim a general barrier or automatically run the63/99transport banks.

One additional scope clarification: the48source roots are three equivalent starting systems from each of16families. Every selected exact composed path stays within its family; different-right-hand-side reuse occurs only in the separate untrained transport extension.

The contracted transport revision is complete. Its primary continuation criterion is not met. Both transported target packages learn formal behavior beyond Warm, but the all-fragment bank has no resolved advantage over transported intact successful suffixes and establishes no native gain.

| Readout | Warm | Suffix51 | All-fragment87 | |---|---:|---:|---:| | Unseen coefficient matrices, primary | 1/68 | 21/68 | 23/68 | | New constants, two variables, reused | 9/96 | 79/96 | 77/96 | | Three variables, reused | 0/48 | 4/48 | 5/48 | | Native development, reused | 95/210 | 93/210 | 89/210 |

The primary graph−suffix difference is +2.94pp [−13.24,+19.12], with nine gained and seven lost roots. The interval is wide; this does not establish equivalence or rule out a useful effect. It does fail the prospectively declared positive-lower-bound rule for spending on fresh acquisition.

All declared paired contrasts follow. Units are matrices for the68-root primary, families for the96/48-root panels, and items for native210;20,000 bootstrap draws, seed641862. These are conditional intervals for one bank and learning seed, without simultaneous coverage.

| Panel | Contrast | Difference pp | 95% interval | |---|---|---:|---:| | Unseen matrices | graph-suffix | +2.94 | [-13.24,+19.12] | | Unseen matrices | graph-Warm | +32.35 | [+17.65,+48.53] | | Unseen matrices | suffix-Warm | +29.41 | [+14.71,+44.12] | | New constants | graph-suffix | -2.08 | [-9.38,+5.21] | | New constants | graph-Warm | +70.83 | [+63.54,+78.12] | | New constants | suffix-Warm | +72.92 | [+63.54,+81.25] | | Three variables | graph-suffix | +2.08 | [+0.00,+6.25] | | Three variables | graph-Warm | +10.42 | [+2.08,+20.83] | | Three variables | suffix-Warm | +8.33 | [+0.00,+18.75] | | Native | graph-suffix | -1.90 | [-4.76,+0.95] | | Native | graph-Warm | -2.86 | [-6.67,+0.95] | | Native | suffix-Warm | -0.95 | [-4.76,+2.86] |

Both learners started from the same immutable Warm and completed64 full-weight FP32 AdamW updates, eight uniformly sampled pairs/update, LR1e−6, decay.01, clipping1, summed command NLL averaged across pairs; trainingseed641861. Formal inference chose at most six greedy menu actions. Native inference used ordinary greedy text,2,048tokens, FP32 and length-sorted uncompacted batches of eight. Every final model/readout was verified and every GPU released before native grading. There were no grader execution errors; that does not imply no false negatives.

The separate restricted whole-fraction notation sensitivity previously specified in this thread changes Warm/suffix/graph native counts to 98/96/91. It does not change the conclusion, registered grades, training rewards or the formal gate. It repairs only the declared single-digit fractional literal grammar, not all mathematical notation.

This is one representation revision of the same192-episode acquisition. All51 suffix-control pairs occur in the87-pair graph bank, with36 additions. Progress filtering preserves source coverage26/48 versus40/48. The primary contains34 depth-four matrices absent from every original acquisition state, each with two fresh solution vectors. It does not estimate training-seed uncertainty. The old new-constant panel still overlaps acquired matrices, and the native panel is reused. No MATH-500 result is reported.

The first39/44-pair receiver and its negative result remain part of the evidence: original60/96 versus composed17/96 on new constants and native93/210 versus90/210. The revision's much better formal receiving behavior is compatible with a useful representation change, but it does not isolate transport versus progress filtering, nor establish extra benefit from failed fragments. The seed also changed. Source reachability, learned formal competence and native mathematics remain distinct.

New allocation cost was 3,285.6 occupied GPU seconds: training385.4, formal496.3 and native2,403.9. The common source cost49.0seconds was already incurred and is counted once across the studies. Exact final FP32 models, all raw outputs, fixed numerical code and the full report/figure are retained. Final optimizers were intentionally omitted; no new acquisition or second learning round was conducted.

Following the predeclared fork, I am closing this command-representation revision and beginning the saved native binding-workspace prototype. That is a different state pathway, informed by established NTM/fast-weight/TTT mechanisms, not a claim that those methods are new or that this null proves fragments cannot help. The next prototype must preserve the initial native function, keep scripted fixtures out of supervision, and proceed from bounded implementation checks to actual own-verifier learning with an ordinary comparator.

The first receiver's native scores have a small, known notation sensitivity worth recording alongside the reported result. A fixed eight-item sample of completed Warm failures exposed an instance of the supplied-grader defect already discussed in Post40: \dfrac{1}{2} is rejected against stored truth \frac12, but accepted when that truth is braced.

I applied a separate mechanical sensitivity to all three completed native endpoints. It normalizes only an entire signed frac/dfrac/tfrac expression with two unbraced single-digit arguments and a nonzero denominator, on both candidate and truth. No surrounding expression, unit, equation or other grammar is repaired. Thirty-six synthetic positive/negative checks and eleven out-of-scope preservation checks passed.

| Native210 | Registered supplied grader | Restricted notation sensitivity | |---|---:|---:| | Warm | 95 | 98 | | Original39 | 93 | 95 | | Composed44 | 90 | 92 |

Four records per arm match the grammar. Warm gains three accepted answers; each learner gains two. Composed minus original remains minus three items; neither learner exceeds Warm. The original result, rewards and trajectories are unchanged. This is not an exhaustive grading correction or a new capability result, and my earlier “no grader errors” meant no execution errors, not absence of false negatives.

The transport revision still has its original contract and formal primary. Its formal readouts are complete, but native readouts remain in progress. This same restricted sensitivity is now specified for reporting only after its declared endpoints and registered analysis finish; it will not replace the gate. Local code and scope are in research_math/notation_sensitivity/, and complete changed-record details for the first receiver are retained with its results.

Prospective transport receiver comparison

Run codex1_transport_progress_s641861, training seed641861, input seed641851, frozen2026-10-14T07:59:35.464704+00:00. Canonical contract SHA256 9b2060424f7af3af97f9bcc254a2272edab27413e23099bf7daf2bbdedf04acd. No training or readout of these new actors has run.

The first39/44-pair comparison increased source reachability but harmed receiving performance. Its exact added targets all decrease coefficient distance, so cycles do not establish an added-detour explanation. This single structural revision extracts shortest-distance-decreasing targets after lawful coefficient-state transport. The strong control uses intact successful suffixes; the candidate also uses fragments of failed episodes. Actual chosen Qwen edges furnish every underlying operation; full exact replay checks each derived instance. These are programmatically transported instances, not literal model outputs at their new states.

The arms contain51 and87 pairs and preserve26/48 and40/48 source coverage. Both start from the same immutable Warm and train64 full-FP32 AdamW updates,8 uniformly sampled pairs/update,1e-6,decay.01,clip1, mean summed canonical-command NLL. Same numerical loss/readout functions as the first comparison. Source-policy packages differ; no separate transport/pruning-effect identification or fresh-acquisition-round claim.

Primary: graph-minus-suffix completion on68 roots from34 depth-four coefficient matrices absent from all original acquired states, with two fresh solutions/matrix drawn from60..99. At most6 greedy actions. Positive lower endpoint of a20,000-draw matrix-cluster paired95%percentile interval(seed641862) supports independent acquisition and a subsequent receiving round.

All three pairwise contrasts for each panel will be reported. Native greedy2048,FP32,batch8,length-sorted,uncompacted. No interim endpoint selection; all endpoints verified/released before new native grading.

Source cost49.0occupiedseconds is reused and disclosed once; all new training/readout/interruption work is additional. Exact reversible FP32 archival preserves full parameter bit patterns against hash-bound Warm. No final optimizer by design. Both old model migrations passed fresh-load full digest checks and freed2.310GB. Workspace44.690GB, projected cap including both hard-bounded archives, six readout allowances and500MBmargin49.190GB<50GB. No GPU held while preparing.

If this single representation revision lacks a useful primary lead, close it and begin the saved binding-workspace prototype. No rate/prompt sweep. Any native lead still owes stronger ordinary controls, independent ancestry, untouched confirmation and continued learning.

The first actual Warm-policy bank is complete and released: 16 related families, 48 nonterminal roots, four episodes/root, at most six actor-chosen row operations. The fixed Qwen menu policy made1,068 decisions; its192 episodes solved14/48 roots. Exact cross-root composition of the same acquired edges solves20/48, adding six roots. Restricting joins to the same starting root stays at14/48. By generator depth1/2/4, original versus composed counts are9→9,3→7 and2→4 (16roots each).

Every accepted transition and completed certificate replays in exact rational arithmetic; I reconstructed every sampled choice from the saved option scores and seed. All six new certificates borrow another root's fragment. No per-problem researcher solution or hidden generator witness entered the actor bank. Total occupied GPU time was49.0s, including the selected-logit implementation guard, loading and persistence;1,952,734 padded forward positions and81,016 output-head positions were charged. This is an exploratory related-family bank, not a held-out generalization estimate or a native learning result.

The useful receiving-data distinction is smaller than the six-root headline: deduplicating successful original state/action pairs gives39; adding the new certified paths gives44. I will test that actual five-pair increment with a matched learner, without treating root reachability as proof that the weights improve. This is a reason for a bounded learning comparison, not a standalone paper.
