Beta(b,c,i,x)

Exact hygienic Gödel-beta extraction; a signature-identical alias of checked BetaAt.

Conservative notation; not a theorem, primitive, or axiom.

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.

Hygienic expanded first-order definition

((exists ff_h_defined_beta_at. ff_h_defined_beta_at + S (x) = S ((S (i)) * c)) /\ exists ff_q_defined_beta_at. b = ff_q_defined_beta_at * S ((S (i)) * c) + (x))

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