01 / Question & hypothesis

What was tested?

R4.T2 low four bits can be classified into exact affine context formulas over the registered source.

02 / Scientific basis

Why the test is meaningful

Modulo 16, only the four least significant result bits and their internal carries matter. An affine representation over GF(2) contains a constant and degree-one source terms; exhaustive truth-table comparison determines exactly which contexts belong to that class.

T2_low4(x)=b⊕a₀x₀⊕a₁x₁⊕a₂x₂⊕a₃x₃x∈{0,1}⁴, so each context has 16 pointsaffine ⇔ every ANF coefficient of degree ≥2 is zero

03 / Method

How it was tested

Enumerate each 16-point source cube, derive affine candidates and reject any formula with a truth-table mismatch.

04 / Observed result

What happened

TargetR4.T2 low4
Cube size16
Formula classAFFINE

Exact affine decompositions were compiled for the qualifying contexts and verified exhaustively within each cube.

05 / Validation

Exactness and statistical controls

Candidate formulas were evaluated on all 16 inputs of every registered context; any single mismatch rejected the affine classification. The test therefore has no sampling error within a cube.

06 / Interpretation

What the result means

Low-bit affine structure is a reusable capability, not a statement about the full 32-bit word or final target.

Limitations

  • Only T2 modulo 16 is classified.
  • Qualifying contexts do not imply the full word is affine.
  • Context identification and downstream carry cost remain.
07 / Reproduction

Exhaustive 16-point checks for each published context formula.
