Proof of 2026-06-09 WR
══════════════════════

Notation: if nth -> a, then we write [nth] = a.

We first show that

(1) 4 is not [2nd] or [1st].

┌───┬───┬───┬───┬───┬───┐
│5th│4th│3rd│2nd│1st│0th│

------------------------------

Plainly, ⛔「⟨⋯ ᵃb ⋯⟩, ab=4」 implies 4 != [1st]. So, suppose 4 = [2nd]:

┌───┬───┬───┬───┬───┬───┐
│5th│4th│3rd│ 2▲│1st│0th│
╞═══╪═══╪═══╪═══╪═══╪═══╡

└───┴───┴───┴───┴───┴───┘

To match ✅「Jump(1,4) = 1」 and avoid ⛔「⟨⋯ ᵃb ⋯⟩, ab=4」 at the same time, we need 1 = [0th]:

┌───┬───┬───┬───┬───┬───┐
│5th│4th│3rd│2nd│1st│ 0▲│
╞═══╪═══╪═══╪═══╪═══╪═══╡
│   │   │   │ 4 │   │ 1 │
└───┴───┴───┴───┴───┴───┘

Then, ✅「⟨⋯ Perm(1,5) ⋯⟩」 implies [1st] = 5:

┌───┬───┬───┬───┬───┬───┐
│5th│4th│3rd│2nd│ 1▲│0th│

--- Idle ---
┌───┬───┬───┬───┬───┬───┐
│   │ 2 │   │ 0 │ 3 │   │
└───┴───┴───┴───┴───┴───┘

To avoid ⛔「⟨? ⋯ 2 ⋯ (?+1) ⋯⟩ (?≠2,1)」, [5th] cannot be 0 or 3. Therefore, [5th] = 2:

┌───┬───┬───┬───┬───┬───┐
│ 5▲│4th│3rd│2nd│1st│0th│
╞═══╪═══╪═══╪═══╪═══╪═══╡
│ 2 │   │   │ 4 │ 5 │ 1 │
└───┴───┴───┴───┴───┴───┘

We cannot avoid ⛔「⟨⋯ 2 ⋯ 0 ⋯ 5 ⋯⟩」 now, which is a contradiction.

------------------------------

We have verified (1). Next, we show that

(2) 4 is not [4th] or [0th].

┌───┬───┬───┬───┬───┬───┐

└───┴───┴───┴───┴───┴───┘

------------------------------

For, if it is not true, then there are two cases:

┌───┬───┬───┬───┬───┬───┐
│5th│4th│3rd│2nd│1st│0th│
╞═══╪═══╪═══╪═══╪═══╪═══╡
│   │ 4 │   │   │   │   │
├───┼───┼───┼───┼───┼───┤
│   │   │   │   │   │ 4 │
└───┴───┴───┴───┴───┴───┘

and ✅「Jump(1,4) = 1」 implies

┌───┬───┬───┬───┬───┬───┐
│5th│4th│3rd│2nd│1st│0th│
╞═══╪═══╪═══╪═══╪═══╪═══╡
│   │ 4 │   │ 1 │   │   │
├───┼───┼───┼───┼───┼───┤
│   │   │   │ 1 │   │ 4 │
└───┴───┴───┴───┴───┴───┘

By ✅「⟨⋯ Perm(1,5) ⋯⟩」, 5 is adjacent to 1. As a result, we cannot match ✅「4th → a, 0th → b, a+b=1+4n」. This shows a contradiction.

------------------------------

We have verified (2). Combining (2) with (1), we get

(3) 4 = [5th] or [3rd].

┌───┬───┬───┬───┬───┬───┐
│5th│4th│3rd│2nd│1st│0th│
╞═══╪═══╪═══╪═══╪═══╪═══╡
│ X │   │ X │   │   │   │
└───┴───┴───┴───┴───┴───┘

Then, by combining (3) with ✅「2nd → a, 1st → b, ab=0+4n」, we have

(4) 0 is [2nd] or [1st].

┌───┬───┬───┬───┬───┬───┐
│5th│4th│3rd│2nd│1st│0th│
╞═══╪═══╪═══╪═══╪═══╪═══╡
│ X │   │ X │ Y │ Y │   │
└───┴───┴───┴───┴───┴───┘

We show that the same holds for 5:

(5) 5 is [2nd] or [1st].

------------------------------

Suppose on the contrary this is not true, then using (3), (4) and ✅「Jump(1,4) = 1」, there are four cases:

      ┌───┬───┬───┬───┬───┬───┐
      │5th│4th│3rd│2nd│1st│0th│
      ╞═══╪═══╪═══╪═══╪═══╪═══╡
(5.1) │ 5 │   │ 4 │ 0 │ 1 │   │
      ├───┼───┼───┼───┼───┼───┤
(5.2) │ X │ 5 │ X │ Y │ Y │   │
      ├───┼───┼───┼───┼───┼───┤
(5.3) │ 4 │   │ 5 │ Y │ Y │   │
      ├───┼───┼───┼───┼───┼───┤
(5.4) │ X │   │ X │ Y │ Y │ 5 │
      └───┴───┴───┴───┴───┴───┘

They are contradictions because:

• if (5.1) holds, then we cannot match ✅「⟨⋯ Perm(1,5) ⋯⟩」;
• if (5.3) holds, then we cannot match ✅「Jump(1,4) = 1」;
• if (5.2) or (5.4) hold, then we cannot match ✅「4th → a, 0th → b, a+b=1+4n」, (3) and (4) at the same time.

------------------------------

We have verified (5). Combining (5) with (4), we get

┌───┬───┬───┬───┬───┬───┐
│5th│4th│3rd│2nd│1st│0th│
╞═══╪═══╪═══╪═══╪═══╪═══╡
│ X │   │ X │0 5│0 5│   │
└───┴───┴───┴───┴───┴───┘

Using ✅「Jump(1,4) = 1」, we further obtain

┌───┬───┬───┬───┬───┬───┐
│5th│4th│3rd│2nd│1st│0th│
╞═══╪═══╪═══╪═══╪═══╪═══╡
│1 4│2 3│1 4│0 5│0 5│2 3│
└───┴───┴───┴───┴───┴───┘

Note that to match ✅「⟨⋯ Perm(1,5) ⋯⟩」, we need to place 0,5 as follows:

       ┌───┬───┬───┬───┬───┬───┐
       │5th│4th│3rd│ 2■│ 1■│0th│▒
       ╞═══╪═══╪═══╪═══╪═══╪═══╡▒

┌───┬───┬───┬───┬───┬───┐

and place 1,4 this way:

       ┌───┬───┬───┬───┬───┬───┐
       │ 5■│4th│ 3■│2nd│1st│0th│▒
       ╞═══╪═══╪═══╪═══╪═══╪═══╡▒

└───┴───┴───┴───┴───┴───┘

Finally, to avoid ⛔「⟨? ⋯ 2 ⋯ (?+1) ⋯⟩ (?≠2,1)」, we finish by

       ┌───┬───┬───┬───┬───┬───┐
