The natural value s of the integer square (p−n)², expressed as a subtraction-free balanced equality.

Definition in prerequisite notation

p · p + n · n = s + (p · n + n · p)

Only definitions earlier in this acyclic notation graph are used here.

Hygienic expanded first-order definition
((((p) * (p))) + (((n) * (n)))) = ((s) + (((((p) * (n))) + (((n) * (p))))))

The unchanged native kernel never receives this surface symbol. Binder-safe expansion produces only its existing first-order syntax.
