prime_field_add_exists_unique

Public research checkpoint, not admitted to Alpha or Stable. Alpha v30 remains 3222 checked-use theorems; Stable remains 432. The on-demand Alpha Lean service does not yet expose these checkpoint theorems; their independently checked literal bundles and unchanged sources are available below.

Existence and uniqueness of canonical prime-field add are both proved.

Public research checkpoint: original HA and independently compiled Lean verified; not Alpha-enrolled, no Alpha checked-use authority; not Stable

This checkpoint constructs prime-order fields (k=1), with genuine finite arithmetic tables, cardinality, and characteristic. Inversion is proved only for nonzero elements; the table's zero entry is a zero-to-zero convention. G091 for every prime power p^k, with an irreducible polynomial of degree k, remains open. No extension-field construction or G091 closure is claimed.

Exact theorem in conservative defined notation

∀ p. ∀ a. ∀ b. Prime(p) → Lt(a,p) → Lt(b,p) → ∃ x. FpAdd(p,a,b,x) ∧ (∀ y. FpAdd(p,a,b,y) → y = x)

Every linked abbreviation expands hygienically to the identical original native formula.

Complete tactic proof in conservative notation

All 28 original proof lines are preserved. Only local proposition formulas are abbreviated; every abbreviation has an exact binder-safe expansion check. The linked exact edition contains the unchanged replay script.
