Rational constraint solver completeness contract

Family 004: Hilbert’s tenth problem over ℚ. First application triage, 9 October 2026 Australia/Brisbane.

Problem and potential new use

Symbolic solver teams can distinguish supported decidable subclasses and unknown outcomes from an impossible universal decision promise.

Applicability and commercial boundary

The undecidability statement concerns arbitrary-variable integer polynomials with rational zeros. It does not rule out complete algorithms for restricted families or validated answers for particular inputs.

Initial business decision

Research infrastructure or conditional engineering until a computable implementation, effective bounds and a recurring buyer need are demonstrated. No commercial novelty or profitability is established.

Next verification action

Add rational-domain, supported-class and unknown-result fields to the evidence workbench; inspect the reduction before relying on the new claim.

Evidence scope

The catalog statement was individually reviewed. Main-paper abstracts and available selected formal scope notes were also inspected. No independent Lean verification was run. Source revision fd4aeeb2ee4fc729c18d98444fed42fd0529eeeb. See source metadata.
