1858 — Active-Soft Region-Pair Collisions Require Triangle Equality
Correction (Entry 1859). The four displayed equalities are correct, but their interpretation as triangle saturation, collinearity, or Gram support is withdrawn. The (y_i) are radial distances from the soft loop point to different centers; the three terms are not the side lengths of one triangle.
Frozen wall equations
For the representative pair,
An active-soft endpoint sets one of
to zero while retaining (q_1=q_2=0). Eliminating (t) gives the four cases
Geometric meaning
Each equality saturates a labelled triangle inequality among three centers. For example,
means that the soft center (C_2) lies on the segment joining (C_3) and (C_5), with the displayed ordering. The other three cases are its labelled analogues.
Thus an active-soft region-pair collision is not generic on an edge-soft divisor. Its exact support is
All three ingredients are already frozen carrier data.
Correction of the frontier
Entry 1836 correctly treated its radial calculation as conditional and left existence open. The existence condition is now solved: its second-Rees (delta^2\log\delta) endpoint coefficient can occur only on this deeper existing support, not at a generic point of the soft divisor.
Narrow result
No new carrier stratum is needed. The unresolved datum is the value of the ten-term OFPT source coefficient after restriction to one supported endpoint chamber.
Next falsifier
Choose one labelled endpoint, impose its soft and triangle-equality equations in the exact ten-term double-residue coefficient, and determine whether the second-Rees logarithmic coefficient is nonzero. Track any additional denominator collision before assigning a physical class.
