T-085: Nagamochi 2005, Lemma 1 is false for every container with and
V3 C3 correction confirmed
Lemma 1 of Nagamochi 2005 -- every square of side in (1, 1.01] inside [0,a] x [0,b] scores more than one against the paper's unavoidable set -- is false for every container with a > 3 and b > 2. Karakuş's square K_t at the lower-left corner, 0 < t <= 1/50, scores 19/20 + t + t^2/2 + t^3/2 < 1 after a concentric shrink, and chelokot's square of side 10001/10000 in [0,4]^2 scores exactly 25009470849041/25584000000000 < 1. The gap is in Section 5.5, Case 6, where Lemma 6 is applied to a contact configuration its hypothesis does not cover.
What holds in its place is Karakuş's strip measure, of total ab - (a + 1 - ceil a), which gives every such square more than one for a >= 2 and b >= 3 (his Proposition 5.1), and the rectangle bound it yields (T-083, T-084). Nagamochi's Theorem 1 at full strength, and so T-007, is unproved and not disproved.
Every printed quantity of both counterexamples was recomputed here in exact rational arithmetic. Hakan Karakuş, arXiv:2609.37410, 29 September 2026; chelokot, square-packing-archive, 4 September 2026, the earlier public record, which Karakuş's paper does not cite. wand125 first reported both, and the defect, to this project in jlevy/squares#295, 2 October 2026.
Significance, composition and next rung
- Significance
- A finding about the published record that removes the proof of the register's most widely cited lower bound at every n >= 10, and with it the verified status of 287 case floors. S3 by the anchor "a substantive case result or machine audit".
- Next rung
- Rung 4 on either axis needs two adversarial AI reviews by distinct reviewers and a retained human oversight record. Whether Lemma 1 holds for a = 3 or for a, b in [2, 3) is undecided; the family does not reach those containers.
- Novelty
- previously-published Present in an identified source
The cases
This result concerns 315 cases, too many to draw one by one. Each is listed with the film’s bounds, the proved lower bound and the best known side, and links to its case record, where its packing and number line are drawn.
