beta_range_empty

Stable checked-use theorem · independently closed

Every consecutive beta range of length zero is vacuous.

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.

Statement with defined notation

∀ b. ∀ c. ∀ a. ∀ l. l = 0 → Range(b,c,a,l)

Every purple notation token opens its conservative definition. This is a reading surface; the compiler expands the statement before the unchanged kernel checks it.

Definition-aware tactic body

Only local propositions introduced by have or suffices are compacted. The untrusted compiler re-expands each one before the original tactic script is replayed; defined notation is never accepted by the kernel. Open the exact replay line beneath every changed command.

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.
