eisenstein_natural_norm_exists

Every pair of natural coordinates has an actual natural Eisenstein norm, constructed by a decidable order comparison.

Alpha v34 checked-use · first admitted v28 · independently kernel and Lean verified; not Stable

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.

A floor quotient in the fundamental parallelogram already gives the required strict norm decrease; global nearest-point optimality is not asserted. The shared carrier is identical to the Gaussian carrier, but the multiplication law and norm are different. Eisenstein gcd, factorization, and prime classification remain separate targets.

Exact theorem in conservative defined notation

∀ a. ∀ b. ∃ n. a · a + b · b = a · b + n

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

Complete tactic proof in conservative notation

All 17 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.

This is a reading aid, not a new proof or a proof-tree certificate. Checkpoint groups are consecutive commands, not inferred branch boundaries. Every step links to the preserved script.

Definition notation is shown below. Open the paired exact edition for the original native formulas. Source pairing is not a new equivalence certificate.
