Session 021 — 2026-08-22 — ii′-4 COMPLETE (L3 + L1 + zeroMult(−2) = 1)

Directive

Work tier ii′ sub-stage ii′-4 (STATE.md NEXT ACTION): L3 zero-avoiding T (pigeonhole on the perimeter unit-window count bound) + L1 kernel bounds, including the trivial-zero residue input zeroMult(−2) = 1 deferred from ii′-1b(iii). All in the new file NguyenRH1/LiContour.lean (freeze protocol: new files + root import only). Three commits: 90ae688 (4a), 33bc5b2 (4b), 5845f6f (4c).

Pre-work (website, non-research — logged in RH-WEBSITE.md §7)

Two website bug fixes at user request (web/ only, research archive untouched): (1) /dashboard/ 500 — git_log subprocess decoded git's UTF-8 commit output as cp1252; the reader thread died on Unicode commit messages and stdout came back None (fixed: encoding="utf-8", errors="replace" + None guard). (2) Roadmap Phase 2/5B checklists rendered as paragraph text — those phases have a note paragraph directly above the list and python-markdown never lets a list interrupt a paragraph (fixed: research_data._restore_interrupted_lists inserts the missing blank line; skips indented continuations and fenced code; archive text still rendered verbatim).

ii′-4a — L3 (exists_zero_avoiding_T)

Design decisions:

ii′-4b — L1 (kernel bounds)

ii′-4c — zeroMult(−2) = 1 (trivial-zero simplicity)

Route per D-066 §6 / STATE.md: the local factorization ζ(s) = (s+2)·G(s) near −2 with G(s) = Λ(s)/Hfun(s):

Axiom audit + build

Full lake build GREEN (8751 jobs). PrintAxioms sweep of all 17 new theorems: 3 standard axioms only (propext, Classical.choice, Quot.sound), no sorryAx anywhere in the Li chain.

Lean gotchas banked this session (additions to journal-011/019/020 lists)

Status

ii′-4 COMPLETE in one session (D-064 estimate: 1 sess ✓). Next: ii′-5 — the R-bound (D-056, A = 10.5, B₀ = 48) via the local route (Borel–Carathéodory + Jensen + Blaschke/StrongPNTPrefix + FE strip bound via riemannZeta_one_sub + Stirling; digamma Lemma D). Estimated 2–3 sessions — the long pole of the remaining ii′ map.
