View project ↗

Overview

Version 1.1.0; exact graphs, encoders, manifests, logs and separate DRAT proof files.

Source-reported results and external checks are separate from independent OpenMath assessment.

Passages

The exact passages cited in OpenMath. Each passage identifies how its wording was recorded.

Passage 1 · OpenMath paraphrasePermalink

03_CERTIFICATION, 04_OPTIONAL_D3 and 05_DOCUMENTATION

CaDiCaL 3.0.1 reports UNSAT; drat-trim reports VERIFIED for four DRAT proofs. Separate encoders, satisfiable controls and status-parsing negative controls support the reported checks.

No OpenMath execution recorded

Small archive inspected; exact graph data imported. SAT solving and DRAT certificate checking have not been rerun by OpenMath.

Resource revision: 1.1.0

File checksum

SHA-256 for this linked file. A matching checksum identifies the same bytes; it does not assess the mathematics.

Dataset

Four DRAT proof certificates ↗

Source-reported evidence

The source reports successful drat-trim checks for both formulations of both graphs. These large certificate files were not executed by OpenMath.
