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

A nonzero proper remainder refutes divisibility.

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

A nonzero proper remainder refutes divisibility.

Direct prerequisites: multiple_refl, divides_remainder, divisor_le_nonzero, lt_not_le. The authored body proceeds by intermediate claims (3).

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.
