third_quotient_double_gap_exists

Alpha v34 checked-use theorem · independently kernel and Lean verified; not Stable

The third quotient has an exact additive gap to the doubled input.

Current library: Alpha v34, 4,223 checked-use theorems; Stable remains 432. Historical first admissions, original proof editions, and non-admitted aliases are preserved. Exact original first-admission records.

Structural proof guide

The third quotient has an exact additive gap to the doubled input.

Direct prerequisites: add_comm, division_quotient_le_dividend. The authored body proceeds by case analysis (1), intermediate claims (1), equality transport (1).

Formal native tactic body

Dependencies are hypotheses of the historical Alpha-v12 body receipt. The complete historical Alpha-v18 proof bundle independently checks every dependency; current Alpha v25 preserves that checked theorem use without changing Stable membership.
