pythagorean_opposite_parity_square_gap_odd

Alpha v34 independently verified · alpha_closed; checked-use authorized; not Stable

Opposite-parity Euclidean parameters force the subtraction-free square-difference leg to be odd in either parity orientation.

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.

Formal native tactic body

Dependencies are introduced as named hypotheses before line 1. Local theorem links identify exact declared prerequisites. This exact body belongs to a complete independently kernel-checked constructive proof bundle and has Alpha checked-use authority; it does not imply Stable membership.
