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.
The carry relation contains actual quotient columns and carry bits, not the desired valuation. The theorem includes all finite lists and zero parts. It uses sequential binary-column carries; a separate simultaneous-grid or permutation-invariance theorem is not asserted.
Exact theorem in conservative defined notation
∀ b. ∀ c. ∀ l. ∃ n. ∃ z. Multinomial(b,c,l,n,z)
Every linked abbreviation expands hygienically to the identical original native formula.

Actual proof prerequisites
Complete tactic proof in conservative notation
All 20 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.
