[#R1787] Dated source and duplicate audit
1Summary
The exact target, equivalent terminology, and 2025-2026 status evidence were checked on 2026-08-01. Strongest checked result: The best general algorithms improve cubic time by subpolynomial factors; many problems are subcubic-equivalent to APSP. Unresolved remainder: A fixed positive exponent saving remains unknown.
The audit ran on 2026-08-01 across the cited primary literature and problem collections, Crossref, arXiv, and stable publisher records, TheoremDB published, prospecting, packet, formal, and retired corpus. It checked the exact statement, its named or normalized variants, recent status evidence, and the controlled TheoremDB corpus.
Queries included: - truly subcubic APSP open problem 2026 - weighted all pairs shortest paths n 3 epsilon
Supported evidence. Replay readiness: source only.
2Outcome
A verification source is cited. This record has no executable replay attached.
Verification source: arxiv.org ↗, R. Williams, Faster all-pairs shortest paths via circuit complexity, STOC 2014. main theorem
