First-landing bounds and canonical inverse laws for Collatz

For the odd Collatz map, we prove that every positive odd unit $a\le M$ receives at least $cX/M$ sources from $(X/4,X]$ whose first landing at or below $M$ is $

Ternary Syracuse laws: tail conditioning, moment growth, and predecessor bounds

For the coupled real and ternary Syracuse affine series, we prove a Gaussian total-variation transition modulo $3^k$ under the real-tail event $R>r$. Classical

A joint formulation of sum-conditioned Syracuse mixing

The fine ternary digits of a Syracuse random affine offset remain superpolynomially mixed after retaining the exact total division exponent as a second coordina

Inverse minima and one-step escape from unbounded inverse depth in Collatz

For the accelerated Collatz map $U$, we study certificates in which a smaller positive odd start reaches an observed forward endpoint. If a forward word uses on

Effective periodic-dictionary complexity for Collatz trajectories

We prove effective restrictions on the periodic-pattern complexity of every positive Collatz trajectory. Fix a finite dictionary of exponent words. Count each f

Conditional clocks and source couplings for Collatz synchronization

We extend published Collatz synchronization results with quantitative estimates for conditioned clocks, couplings that retain actual inputs, and lower bounds fo

Smaller Collatz sources before first descent: power gains and odd-count surplus

We study smaller positive sources that share a Collatz future with an original source before any forward iterate of the latter falls below it. Every finite pari

Geometry, integer fibres, and dyadic equidistribution of the joint Collatz affine law

We study the stationary law of the fair Collatz affine maps acting jointly on the real and ternary coordinates. Leen's counted-coalescence estimate yields sharp

Coupled Bézout Congruence Towers, Telescopic Prefix Completion Cuts, and Unconditional Exclusion of 94- and 95-Block Collatz Cycles

We prove the non-existence of non-trivial positive integer Collatz cycles with $m = 94$ or $m = 95$ local-minimum blocks ($m \le 95$), conditional on Barina's $

Microscopic occupation from smooth Syracuse passage laws

We study distinct Syracuse orbit points in finitely many fixed logarithmic bands before first entry below $A^{.99}$. Taking the source natural-density limit fir

Automatic parity and primitive substitutions in rational Collatz dynamics

We extend restrictions on positive rational shortcut-Collatz orbits from automatic parity and two primitive-substitution classes to every coded primitive fixed
