Main theorem
Let
[
P(R)=R^6-8R^5+22R^4-30R^3+21R^2-6R+1
]
and let
[
R_{\mathrm{hyb}}=1.5028569127905696\ldots
]
be its unique root in (3/2,151/100). The paper constructs one explicit
fitness-independent family of finite connected undirected weighted graphs
that eventually amplifies every fixed 1<r<R_hyb under both update rules.
Consequently,
[
R_{\mathrm{sim}}\ge R_{\mathrm{hyb}}>3/2.
]
This exactly refutes the proposed threshold R_sim=3/2.
Construction and certificates
The family combines a clique core, ordinary hub leaves, and dilute internally
heavy K_2 satellites. The release includes:
- the complete manuscript and deterministic PDF;
- exact labelled-chain lumping and transition checks;
- exact rational coefficient identities;
- Sturm and tangency certificates for the algebraic threshold;
- a second independently derived asymptotic proof path;
- the exact counterexample excluding every graph-independent convex affine
endpoint separator; - hostile-audit and page-by-page PDF QA records; and
- a one-command replay script, plus a pinned clean-archive bootstrap.
Scope
The value R_hyb is exact for the displayed two-mechanism dilute regime. The
unrestricted exact value of R_sim and a matching universal upper bound remain
open. This preprint is a public research release, not peer-reviewed journal
publication. No journal submission or external contact is claimed.
