IndisputableMonolith.NumberTheory.ErdosStrausRotationHierarchy
The ErdosStrausRotationHierarchy module defines the rotation hierarchy for nonzero residuals in the Erdős-Straus RCL reduction. It introduces NonzeroResidual with positive finite modulus c together with ResidualPhaseQuotient, AdmissibleHardGate, and GateClosureWitness. Researchers attacking the conjecture via algebraic ledger reduction would cite it for the phase-support scaffolding. The module consists of definitions and lemmas that organize the finite combinatorial objects directly from the residual equation supplied by ErdosStrausRCL.
claimA nonzero residual satisfies $c/N = 1/y + 1/z$ where $c = 4x - n$, $N = nx$, and $c$ is a positive finite modulus. The rotation hierarchy is built from the residual phase quotient, admissible hard gates, gate-ladder forcing, and gate-closure witnesses that represent balanced-pair phase support.
background
This module belongs to the NumberTheory domain and imports ErdosStrausRCL. The upstream ledger reduction records that after the first denominator $x$ is chosen, the residual equation is $c/N = 1/y + 1/z$ with $c = 4x - n$ and $N = nx$. The module defines NonzeroResidual as a nonzero residual $c/N$ possessing a positive finite modulus $c$. It then introduces ResidualPhaseQuotient, finite_quotient_necessity, AdmissibleHardGate, gate_ladder_forced, admissible_gate_posts, GateClosureWitness, gate_closure_witness_gives_repr, BalancedPairPhaseSupport, and balanced_pair_phase_support_gives_repr to organize the rotation hierarchy.
proof idea
This is a definition module, no proofs. It structures the argument by successive definitions: NonzeroResidual supplies the positive finite modulus, finite_quotient_necessity forces the quotient, AdmissibleHardGate and gate_ladder_forced generate the admissible posts, GateClosureWitness and balanced_pair_phase_support_gives_repr close the representation, and AllPrimeFactorsOneModThree together with ResidualTrap complete the hierarchy.
why it matters in Recognition Science
The module feeds ErdosStrausBoxPhase, which isolates the finite combinatorial part of the residual Erdős-Straus proof by representing square-budget divisor-exponent boxes via complementary pairs $(d,e)$ with $d*e = N^2$. It supplies the rotation-hierarchy objects required for that box-phase construction and thereby advances the RCL attack on the conjecture.
scope and limits
- Does not prove the Erdős-Straus conjecture itself.
- Does not treat the zero-residual case.
- Does not supply explicit solutions or numerical checks for concrete $n$.
- Does not link to Recognition Science constants or forcing chain.
