Enrich mean-value-theorem-oq-02-oq-04: align retraction stub#21867
Merged
Conversation
…ual file state
The S1 axiom was retracted in S2 (2026-05-14) after a Runge counterexample
refuted it, but the gallery entry's annotations and meta still described the
removed axiom/theorem/check block as if present.
Annotations rewrite (annotations.json):
- Old: 5 entries pointing at lines 4-173 of the pre-retraction file (described
the axiom on 95-134, derived theorem 136-167, #check verification 168-173)
- New: 6 entries aligned to the 128-line retraction stub:
* imports (1-2): why parent import is retained after retraction
* OQ-04 statement (4-13): the verbatim open question and the real-vs-complex
interpretive ambiguity that doomed S1
* Runge refutation (14-39): explicit witness numerics + complex radius of
convergence root cause
* S2 action (41-67): soundness threat model (False-witness in build closure)
explaining why deprecation was insufficient and removal was required
* Bookkeeping + siblings (69-112): axiom-count accounting and the
Runge-immunity of the cousin qualitative result
* Empty namespace (114-128): API-stability rationale for keeping the
namespace declaration
index.ts: wire Lean source via ?raw import so the retraction docstring is
visible on the gallery page (was source: '').
meta.json:
- Add cross-reference to child slug mean-value-theorem-oq-02-oq-04-oq-01 (the
most important sibling - carries both the refutation and the corrected
complex-disk form - was missing entirely)
- Rewrite conclusion.summary to lead with RETRACTED status and the Runge
counterexample, replacing the misleading "axiomatized as ..." framing
- Rewrite openQuestions to reflect the resolved status: Q1 is closed
negatively (S1 axiom is false), Q2 is closed positively modulo one
sub-lemma (complex-disk version proven in child), Q3 points to the
remaining sub-lemma, Q4 covers extensions
Validated: tsc --noEmit clean; JSON.parse OK on both .json files.

Summary
This entry is a doc-only retraction stub (S2, 2026-05-14) for the false S1 axiom
analytic_taylor_remainder_uniform_bound, refuted by the Runge counterexample in the child slug. Its annotations and meta still described the removed axiom/theorem/check block as if present. This PR aligns the gallery entry with the current 128-line Lean file.Changes
