1671 — Three-Block Weighted Schur Complements Glue off the Exceptional Determinant
Overlap falsifier
Entry 1670 identifies the coefficient-Rees direction required by singular two-block conditioning. Test whether nested three-block conditioning creates an overlap obstruction on the generic weighted chart.
Use
When
joint conditioning on the last two blocks gives
Eliminating the (b)-block first gives
while eliminating the (d)-block first gives
Exact reduction identifies both expressions with (S_{ m joint}).
The checker verifies 854 invertible exceptional blocks, 93,638 positive covariance families, and 187,276 elimination-order comparisons.
Narrow result
The coefficient-Rees charts glue by ordinary Schur-complement transitivity. No supported secondary class and no new carrier incidence appears away from
This result does not extend through that determinant locus, where the exceptional covariance block itself becomes singular.

Next falsifier
Resolve the rank-one exceptional block (bd-z^2=0). Determine whether positivity forces the cross vector ((x,y)) into its image and whether the resulting Moore--Penrose/relative Schur limit is intrinsic on the labelled rank-one stratum. If a further approach ratio is required, identify its weighted coefficient chart without adjoining a carrier cell.
