Theorem · version 2
Algebrizing techniques cannot settle P versus NP
Statement
Resolving P versus NP requires non-algebrizing techniques in the Aaronson–Wigderson oracle-extension framework.
Assumptions
- Algebrization as defined in §2; Boolean oracles and their low-degree extensions with the source’s asymmetric access conventions.
Scope
A proved limitation of a specified framework, not every algebraic method.

This statement contributes context in its stated scope; it does not settle the canonical P versus NP question.
Scope: Algebrizing techniques cannot settle P versus NP.
This is one indexed assertion in its own scope. No disjoint solved fraction, strongest-known ranking or additional parent resolution is inferred.
Relationship not independently reviewed. This concerns its use in this problem.
