[#R664] The relative cubic covering radius equals 88
claim. The relative covering radius of RM(2,8) inside RM(3,8) equals 88. The full covering radius maximizes over every 8-variable Boolean function and may be larger.
1Summary
Khoruzhii, Gelß, and Pokutta define \[ \rho_{2,3}(m)=\max_{F\in RM(3,m)}d_2(F) \] and record \(\rho_{2,3}(8)=88\), based on Hou's complete classification of cubic forms through eight variables. Since \(RM(3,8)\) is a subclass of all 8-variable Boolean functions, this value supplies the lower bound \(\rho(2,8)\geq88\). Global equality remains the canonical target. The distinction between the relative maximum and the full maximum prevents the cubic classification from being presented as a complete solution.
Supported evidence. Recorded scope: all 8-variable Boolean functions of degree at most three.
