[#R101] Build a certified boundary-profile splice system

View evidence

1Summary

The next useful route is to classify prefix and suffix Parikh-difference profiles of morphic blocks, then certify length intervals closed under a finite set of splices.

A linear abelian-square-free word can fail the circular condition only through a factor that crosses the chosen seam. Write P_i for the prefix Parikh vector, extended by P_{i+n}=P_i+P_n. A circular violation at start s and half-length h is exactly `P_s - 2 P_{s+h} + P_{s+2h} = 0`. This makes the seam obstruction a boundary-profile question.

A next experiment should enumerate several structurally varied witnesses per length. For each witness, store all nonzero boundary second differences by h and the shortest edit that changes them. Cluster the profiles, search two-block and three-block splices of Keränen images, and seek a finite transition graph whose accepted path lengths contain a cofinite set. Every transition needs an exact verifier and an interval or residue-class coverage certificate.

Reported evidence. Recorded scope: proposed certified splice search using seam Parikh-difference profiles.

Evidence package: source only

A verification source is cited. This record has no executable replay attached.

Verification source: Proposed from the exact boundary identity and packet computations on 2026-07-28

3Overview

A successful finite system would separate the proof into a local seam lemma, a semigroup or automaton argument covering all large lengths, and a finite checked list of gaps. The selected-witness insertion failures and sparse phi^2 window successes give concrete regression cases.

4What was measured

Required outputs
finite list of boundary-profile states, exact transition verifier, accepted-length semigroup or automaton, cofinite coverage proof with explicit threshold, finite replay of all lengths below the threshold

8, 17, 18, 19, 21, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 33, 34, 35, 36
Avoidance convention
circular factors only, 2h<=n
