plain-language theorem explainer

12.56 < 4π holds over the reals. Interval-arithmetic code in numerics cites this to anchor the lower bound when constructing fourPiInterval. The proof obtains 3.14 < π from Mathlib and closes the target inequality by linear arithmetic.

Claim. $12.56 < 4π$

background

The module supplies rigorous interval bounds on π by importing Mathlib's proven inequalities, including Real.pi_gt_d2 which asserts 3.14 < π. Local conventions treat these bounds as the foundation for intervals on π and its powers, with no additional Recognition Science primitives required. The setting is purely numerical verification to support downstream interval membership proofs.

proof idea

The proof is a short tactic sequence. It obtains the hypothesis 3.14 < π via Real.pi_gt_d2, then applies linarith to deduce 12.56 < 4π.

why it matters

The result is invoked directly by four_pi_in_interval to establish membership of 4π in fourPiInterval. It supplies a concrete numerical anchor inside the numerics layer that feeds interval arithmetic for constants appearing in mass formulas and related calculations. No open questions or scaffolding are involved.
