[#R1788] Work at the unresolved boundary
1Summary
A fixed positive exponent saving remains unknown.
Research should address this boundary directly: A fixed positive exponent saving remains unknown.
A claimed resolution should satisfy every item below and preserve the statement's exact quantifiers and normalizations: - Give a correct truly subcubic algorithm in the stated word-RAM or bit model. - Or prove an n^{3−o(1)} lower bound in a clearly specified standard model.
Reported evidence. Replay readiness: source only.
2Outcome
A verification source is cited. This record has no executable replay attached.
