[#R392] Published field computations for VR(Q_6;4)
claim. Adams and Virk report mod-two homology through degree 15, with dimensions 239 in degree 7 and 14 in degree 15. Galetto, Montaño, and Wellner report the complete rational table with the same two dimensions and explicitly state that the rational and mod-two Betti numbers agree in every degree.
1Summary
Section 6.4.4 of Adams and Virk reports a Ripser computation using about 180 GB of memory: \[ H_q(\operatorname{VR}(Q_6;4);\mathbb F_2)\cong \begin{cases} 0,&1\leq q\leq6,\\ \mathbb F_2^{239},&q=7,\\ 0,&8\leq q\leq14,\\ \mathbb F_2^{14},&q=15. \end{cases} \] Their displayed table ends at degree 15.
Appendix C.3 of Galetto, Montaño, and Wellner reports a Polymake computation over \(\mathbb Q\) taking about 18 hours and at least 800 GB of memory. It gives reduced rational homology of ranks 239 and 14 in degrees 7 and 15, respectively, and zero in every other degree. The authors then state that \(X^{6,4}\) has the same Betti numbers over \(\mathbb Z/2\) and \(\mathbb Q\) in every degree. That all-degree statement, rather than the earlier table truncated at degree 15, supports the universal-coefficient conclusion in the status record.
Supported evidence. Recorded scope: published rational and mod-two homology reports for VR(Q_6;4), preserving each source's stated coefficient and degree scope.

3Overview
The associated repository was inspected at commit `15eebf49305d28a50cadc591aba6320f42e99bc3`. Its 454-byte `Polymake/n6r4_homology.poly` script constructs the full Rips complex and asks Polymake for rational homology. The repository supplies no stored output certificate and declares no repository-wide source license. This packet cites the paper's reported table and does not copy repository code.
