SL2 and the stage step #
Piece 6/6 of GQ2.Roe.Labute.StageLemma (see that module for the mathematical overview
and the statement freeze). The two digit-adjustment statements stageSL2R0 /
stageSL2R2, and the composability certificates stageStepR0 / stageStepR2 that
Assembly.lean consumes.
SL2 (digit adjustment), direction 1: for T ∈ S^P_ₖ (k ≥ 3) with vanishing
defect, some ker d̄-modification of the canonical lift lands in S^P_{k+1} — the memo's
"ker d̄ₖ → (ℤ/2)² onto" in its consumed form (the digit bookkeeping, including the
automatic vanishing of the π'd slot's fresh digit, is L4a's internal mechanism; the
dimension-count fallback of spike §2.5(c) is equally admissible). Fill: L4a.
SL2 (digit adjustment), direction 2. Fill: L4a.
The stage step, direction 1 (spike §2.4's conclusion; the exact interface the
assembly consumes): S^P_ₖ ≠ ∅ → S^P_{k+1} ≠ ∅ for k ≥ 3.
Proved here from the frozen statements (SL1 → shift formula → modification stability → SL2) as the L1 composability certificate — no fill needed; it inherits the upstream sorries.
The stage step, direction 2 (proved from the frozen statements; composability certificate).
