  "body": "Write \\(\\gamma\\) for the discrete-time spectral gap under the convention in the problem. The certified interval is\n\\[\n\\frac{1}{170005193383307227693056}\n\\leq \\gamma \\leq\n\\frac{48265367094829605687889}{36363194510128970638045284}\n=0.00132731372325897517\\ldots.\n\\]\nThe lower endpoint equals \\(1/(36\\,2^{72})\\). The upper endpoint is an exact Rayleigh quotient for total magnetization \\(M=\\sum_v\\sigma_v\\). This trial function lies in the spin-flip-odd, translation-invariant symmetry sector. Its projected transition eigenvalue is\n\\[\n\\frac{36314929143034141032357395}{36363194510128970638045284}.\n\\]\n\nFor the upper bound, reversibility and the heat-bath projection identity give\n\\[\n\\langle M,(I-P)M\\rangle_\\pi\n=\\mathbb E_\\pi\\!\\left[\\operatorname{Var}(\\sigma_0\\mid\\sigma_{V\\setminus\\{0\\}})\\right].\n\\]\nThe exact transfer calculation finds\n\\[\n\\sum_\\sigma 2^{a(\\sigma)}M(\\sigma)^2\n=273793464546853425980576256,\n\\]\nwhere \\(a(\\sigma)\\) is the number of agreeing edges. With common conditional-variance scale \\(7225=25\\cdot17^2\\), it also finds\n\\[\n\\sum_\\sigma 2^{a(\\sigma)}\\,7225\\operatorname{Var}(\\sigma_0\\mid\\sigma_{V\\setminus\\{0\\}})\n=2625635969958730549421161600.\n\\]\nTheir quotient gives the stated upper endpoint.\n\nFor the lower bound, compare with independent random-scan heat bath under the uniform measure. If \\(m\\) and \\(M_0\\) are the minimum and maximum density ratios of the Ising measure against uniform measure, edge conductances give \\(\\mathcal E_P\\geq m\\mathcal E_0\\), while \\(\\operatorname{Var}_\\pi f\\leq M_0\\operatorname{Var}_0f\\). The independent chain has gap \\(1/36\\). The Gibbs weights are proportional to \\(2^{a(\\sigma)}\\), and the bipartite torus realizes both \\(a=0\\) and \\(a=72\\). Hence \\(m/M_0=2^{-72}\\), proving the lower endpoint.\n\nThe calculation supplies rigorous bounds. Determining the exact second eigenvalue still requires a certificate that covers every symmetry sector.",
