plain-language theorem explainer

The theorem shows that the island-of-stability structure derived from the ledger directly supplies the condition that effective nuclear-force coefficients are positive. Nuclear modelers linking ledger constraints to binding-energy calculations would cite this when propagating positivity requirements into force terms. The proof is a one-line term that returns the hypothesis because the island structure is defined to coincide with the force positivity proposition.

Claim. If the island-of-stability structure holds from the ledger, then the nuclear-force coefficients satisfy $volumeCoeff > 0$, $surfaceCoeff > 0$, $coulombCoeff > 0$, and $asymmetryCoeff > 0$.

background

Within the Nuclear module the proposition nuclear_force_from_ledger asserts that the four effective coefficients in the nuclear force model are strictly positive. The island_of_stability_from_ledger is introduced as the identical proposition, so the two are definitionally the same. This placement follows the upstream nuclear_force_from_ledger definition that supplies the structural content for positive coefficients.

proof idea

The proof is a one-line term that returns the hypothesis h, which already carries nuclear_force_from_ledger because island_of_stability_from_ledger is defined to be exactly that proposition.

why it matters

The declaration supplies a direct bridge from the island-of-stability ledger entry to the nuclear-force positivity condition. It closes a consistency link inside the Nuclear submodule and supports any later derivation that requires the force coefficients to be positive. No downstream uses are recorded yet.
