The compiled record

The paper's own sentences, arranged. Each label is drawn from a closed vocabulary; the number beside it is the probability the classifier gave that label. Numbers in the tables are the authors', checked by code. No sentence in this record was written by a model.

The abstract, sentence by sentence

arXiv listing abstract v1. Results and the main claim are underlined; .

Epiphainein counts unreachable single-side pawn diagrams (in chess) where pawns can move forward or diagonally-forward without limit whilst remaining on the board. Epiphainein is a serial calculation and takes a few seconds to calculate the number of unreachable diagrams on a regular 8 x 8 board. With a decent machine it should take roughly 4 hours to calculate the same on a 10 x 10 board.
