A flip picks two terms sharing a factor (a_i=a_j) and maps (a⊗b_i⊗c_i + a⊗b_j⊗c_j) → (a⊗(b_i+b_j)⊗c_i + a⊗b_j⊗(c_j+c_i)). A reduction removes a term whenever one becomes zero or two terms can be merged. Use plateau moves and random restarts from the best pool (Kauers–Moosbauer style). 3) Every time the rank drops, Hensel-lift the GF(2) scheme to Z (solve linear systems mod 2^k, then rational reconstruction) and verify exactly over Z. 4) Submit the best result via check_candidate.\nThreshold: 97 (must reach).

The idea is to fix r−k terms of a known scheme and ask a SAT solver whether the residual tensor T − Σ(fixed) has GF(2) rank ≤ k−1. That would give rank r−1 directly. For the public 93 scheme (fmm.univ-lille.fr), k≈8–12 should be within reach of a SAT solver in seconds to minutes per instance.\nMethod: 1) Transcribe the public 93-term 5×5 scheme (or, if downloads aren't allowed in the sandbox, the best scheme from N33) and verify it. 2) Loop: pick k terms, either randomly or 'correlated' (terms that share factors or whose supports overlap). Compute the residual R. Encode 'R = Σ_{i<k} a_i⊗b_i⊗c_i over GF(2)' as CNF, using CryptoMiniSat (native XOR) or kissat with Tseitin chains, with lexicographic symmetry breaking.

LNS over GF(2): pick k correlated terms and ask whether their residual R has GF(2) rank <= k-1. Two reductions: (1) project R onto the spans of the removed factors (concise subspace), which gives instances of at most k x k x k; (2) rank(R) >= every flattening dimension, so a neighbourhood is only feasible if max dim <= k-1. When a flattening dimension d equals the target, rank <= d holds iff the d-dim slice space is spanned by its rank-1 elements, which is an exact 2^d enumeration. Kissat with a Tseitin XOR encoding timed out (30 s) on every instance tried, already at k=9 (8x8x8, target 8), so I replaced SAT with this exact test. Tested about 49k neighbourhoods of the fixed scheme (k=8..24; counts per k: 8:1240, 9:2122, 10:3351, 11:4800, 12:7408, 13:8959, 14:10329, 15:1960, 16:2458, 17:2607, 18:2202, 19-24:~1550) plus about 40k more on schemes reached by GF(2) plateau flip walks from the 93. All UNSAT: zero GF(2) rank drops, and no zero or duplicate terms appeared under the flips. The mod-2 scheme has almost no shared factors (per mode, 88 distinct factors used once, one used twice, one used three times), so the 93 is very rigid under flips. A Hensel-lift pipeline (from GF(2) to Z, with nullspace randomisation) is written and was tested on trivial instances, but it was never needed.

Per mode, the 93 has about 88 distinct factors that are each used only once, so it is very rigid.\n- Transpose-Z2-symmetric walks (N52, U64): best 111 from a symmetric block seed. The symmetric block subschemes are already worse than the unrestricted ones (<3,3,3> 25 vs 23).\n\nBest open leads:\n1. Z3-structured moves on the 93. N64 names these as the unblocker, and nobody has tried them. Note that 92 = 3m+s needs s ≡ 2 (mod 3), so a Z3-invariant 92 must change the number of fixed terms (3 -> 2 or 5). Plain orbit flips preserve s, so we need moves that trade fixed terms against orbits.\n2. Exact re-solving of Z3-closed neighbourhoods: remove a set of terms closed under Z3 (orbits plus fixed terms), then search for a Z3-invariant decomposition of the residual that is one term smaller. The symmetric unknown space is about 3x smaller, so SAT should reach larger k than the k=9 where N46 timed out.\n3. Close the N46 caveat with a real decision procedure (or a Z-valued ALS/LM solve with rounding) on neighbourhoods whose flattening dims are below k-1.\nWeak or closed: unstructured flips or perturbations of the 93, transpose symmetry, and non-symmetric walks from cheap seeds (they stall around 101 to 106).","claim":null,"created":1791927109,"credit":[2],"id":68,"kind":"summary","label":null,"parent":null,"program":"matmul-5x5","score":null,"title":"Where things stand","unit":-116},{"body":"Status: 6/7 verified (N50).
