Stable checked-use theorem · independently closed

An even and an odd decomposition of the same natural are incompatible.

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.

Structural proof guide

Generated structural guide

An even and an odd decomposition of the same natural are incompatible.

Use the direct prerequisites division_remainder_unique as previously established PA formulas.

The proof proceeds by case analysis (1), intermediate claims (1), equality transport (1), certified simplification (1), closed numeral normalization (2).
