Kind: kernel-term
Status: checked

Supports: ∀ {m n : ℕ} (a b : Bool), m < n → Nat.bit a m < Nat.bit b n

Checker command

test "$(cargo run -q -p axeyum-lean-kernel --example nat_theorem_inventory -- bit_lt_bit 2>/dev/null | grep -Ec '^Nat\.bit_lt_bit[[:space:]]')" -ge 1

Evidence notes

`build_nat_prelude` admits `Nat.bit_lt_bit` through the trusted `Kernel::add_declaration` gate, declared in `nat_prelude/bit_extra.rs` (a new module, kept separate from `bits.rs`'s own dense theorem set). `nat_theorem_inventory`'s rendered type is `((x0 : AxNat) -> ((x1 : AxNat) -> ((x2 : Bool) -> ((x3 : Bool) -> ((x4 : AxNat.lt x0 x1) -> AxNat.lt (AxNat.bit x2 x0) (AxNat.bit x3 x1))))))`, matching this fact's `formal.statement`. `nat_theorem_inventory` exits non-zero for a name that does not exist, and the `grep -c` count (tested `-ge 1`, not piped into `grep -q`) requires the admitted declaration to actually be printed. Verified both ways: the real name greps to a count `-ge 1`; grepping a made-up name (`Nat.bit_lt_bit_bogus`) greps to `0`.

Kind: exhaustive-enumeration
Status: checked

Supports: axiom_footprint: [] -- the Nat prelude's trusted surface is empty

Checker command

cargo run -q -p axeyum-lean-kernel --example nat_axiom_inventory -- --require-axiom-free nat

Evidence notes

`nat_axiom_inventory --require-axiom-free nat` enumerates the built Nat environment and exits non-zero unless it admits no Axiom, Opaque or Quotient declaration (measured: axiom=0 opaque=0 quotient=0). A theorem cannot depend on a trusted declaration the environment does not contain, so an empty trusted surface bounds every individual theorem's footprint by []. `nat_prelude_tests::every_nat_declaration_is_checked_and_axiom_free` additionally checks this theorem's own `Kernel::axiom_footprint` directly via `theorem_names` (this declaration's `p.bit_lt_bit` entry was added there in the same session), and `the_build_is_deterministic`/`every_promised_name_is_admitted_with_the_expected_kind` (both re-run on every `nat_prelude::` sweep) confirm the declaration is admitted at the exact rendered type checked above. `nat_prelude/bit_extra_tests.rs` independently checks this declaration's `axiom_footprint` too, plus a concrete instantiation with a discriminating negative control.
