Section 10, paragraph 6Neither the verification nor the experiments show that gradient descent or self-play discovers the constructions

Informal interpretation Motivation, interpretation or scope; not a formal claim.

1 Paper text

Neither the mathematical verification nor the experiments establish that gradient descent or self-play will discover the constructions in general.

Generated from paper_jmlr.tex, lines 1297–1297.

2 Explain this

A reminder that neither the theorems nor the experiments show that gradient descent or self-play will find these constructions in general. The theorems are about what can be represented and computed; the experiments are about particular supervised and imitation runs.

3 How this is formalised

A scope statement; nothing is formalised. The corresponding open question is Section 8.5, paragraph 3.

4 Lean statement and source

No Lean statement corresponds to this claim. This is interpretation or motivation, not a formal mathematical claim.

Build evidence: fresh isolated rebuild of all 38 bundled modules with Lean (version 4.26.0, started 2026-10-10T15:21:56Z, finished 2026-10-10T15:27:00Z: 38/38 modules compiled, 1588 axiom reports, no errors. See Build for the commands and the independent audit of 2026-10-10 (dated evidence).
