Usage

Compile to Python

dafny /compile:py spi_galois.dfy
# Generates: spi_galois.py

Use Compiled Proofs

from spi_galois import SPIGalois, Color, Event

# Verify Galois closure
c = Color(42)
closure_valid = SPIGalois.verify_galois_closure(c)
print(f"Color {c.index} satisfies closure: {closure_valid}")

# Compute color from event
event = Event(seed=0x6761795f636f6c6f, token=10, layer=1, dim=1)
color = SPIGalois.alpha(event)
print(f"Event maps to color: {color.index}")

Mathematical Guarantees

Galois Connection (spi_galois.dfy)

A Galois connection between two ordered sets:

α: Event → Color (abstraction, surjective)
γ: Color → Event (concretization)

Properties:

Closure: α(γ(c)) = c (every color recoverable)
Determinism: α(e₁) = α(e₂) if e₁ and e₂ have same hash
Consistency: Device-independent color assignment

p-adic Arithmetic (padic.dfy)

p-adic numbers form an ultrametric space where:

Distance: d(x,y) = p^(-v_p(x-y))
Non-Archimedean: No boundary effects
Canonical form: Unique representation (no denormals)
Totally disconnected: Every point is isolated

Benefits over IEEE 754 floats:

✓ Exact representation (no rounding)
✓ Unique canonical form
✓ No boundary clipping issues
✓ Hierarchical structure (depth-based matching)

Ring Topology (spi_galois.dfy)

Distributed computation model where:

Devices form a ring topology
Each device handles layer partition [start, end]
Partitions contiguous and non-overlapping
XOR fingerprints order-independent

Fault Detection:

Single bit flip always detected (changes XOR)
False positive rate: 0%
