fix: ball soundness, endpoint roots, cranelift lint gap, and a silent coefficient truncation - #302
Conversation
coefficient truncation Post-merge cleanup of defects found while fixing issues #16-#18. alkahest-core/src/ball: `ArbBall::bessel_jn` was unsound. It hulled `Jn(lo)` and `Jn(hi)`, which is only an enclosure for a *monotone* function. `J0` on [-1, 1] has equal endpoints (~0.7652), so the hull collapsed to a point that excluded `J0(0) = 1` — the function's own maximum. Rewritten as midpoint + mean-value bound, rigorous at every order (|Jn| <= 1, and |Jn'| <= 1 from J0' = -J1 and the recurrence). Latent rather than live, because `IntervalEval::eval_node` refused bessel outright — so wiring that refusal up without auditing the kernel would have converted an honest refusal into a confident wrong answer. `eval_node`'s Func arm now dispatches through the primitive registry instead of a third hand-written name list, so the accepted set *is* the advertised set by construction. That required a unary guard on all 24 `numeric_ball` impls: several took `args[0]` unconditionally, so `sin(x, y)` would have returned a rigorous enclosure of `sin(x)`. Also fixes `atanh`, which had a real ball kernel but lost its `numeric_ball` bit because `probe_caps` probed at 1.0 only and its domain is the open interval (-1, 1). verified_no_roots: a root sitting exactly on a box endpoint came back `undecided`. The box is closed, so a point of it at which f is *proven* zero is a root — no continuity or sign change needed. Proof is admitted only from a degenerate [0,0] enclosure or exact symbolic substitution at a seed point; an enclosure that merely contains zero is never used. UniPoly.coefficients() truncated silently: `2**100 * x**2 + 1` returned [1, 0, 0], a quadratic reading as the constant 1, with no exception. Core already had an exact accessor; the binding called the i64 one. Reachable from ordinary use — factor_z, resultants and pseudo-division all grow coefficients past 64 bits. CI: `cargo clippy --features cranelift` had no step and did not pass, though cranelift ships in the default wheel since PR #299. Three lints fixed (the too_many_arguments one by restructuring, which also removed a representable-but-invalid half-specified batch layout) and a step added. CONTRIBUTING told contributors to run --all-features, which cannot build without LLVM+CUDA and so reported nothing; it now documents the per-feature loop CI actually runs. Docs and examples: representations.md was wrong in six places and now executes end to end; `UniPoly.leading_coeff` bound as a property; four broken examples fixed, two of which were failing *silently* with exit 0. tests/test_budget.py was not marginally flaky, it was mis-set: 5.3 s actual against a 6.0 s bound on an idle box, and 24.9 s under load. Now bounded on process CPU time, plus an assertion that the fallback mechanism actually fired. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

rug 1.30.0 Integer to_string_radix Rust API
💡 Result:
In the rug crate (including version 1.30.0), the Integer::to_string_radix method is used to convert an arbitrary-precision Integer into a String representation for a specified base [1][2]. ### Method Signature The method is defined as follows [1][2]: rust pub fn to_string_radix(&self, radix: i32) -> String ### Details - Functionality: It returns a String representing the Integer value in the provided radix [1][3]. - Radix Constraints: The radix must be in the range 2 to 36 (inclusive) [1][3]. - Panics: The method will panic if the specified radix is less than 2 or greater than 36 [1][2]. ### Example Usage rust use rug::Integer; let mut i = Integer::from(0x1234cdef); // Convert to base 4 let s = i.to_string_radix(4); assert_eq!(s, "102031030313233"); // Convert to base 16 i.assign(0xabcdef); assert_eq!(i.to_string_radix(16), "abcdef"); This method is the inverse of Integer::from_str_radix, which parses a string into an Integer given a specific base [3][2].

Avoid decimal parsing for arbitrary-size coefficients.
On Python 3.11 and later, the default 4,300-digit limit can reject the decimal strings passed to int by both accessors. Use to_string_radix(16) with int(..., 16), or construct integers from bytes. Add a regression test with a coefficient above this limit.

💡 Result:
In the Alkahest computer algebra system, the examples/risch_integration.py script serves as a showcase for algebraic Risch integration, specifically implementing Trager's algorithm [1][2]. The NonElementary guard is a component of this implementation used to identify and handle elliptic integrals [3][1]. Because the current algebraic integration module is limited to genus-0 integrals—which involve sqrt(P(x)) over the field of rational functions where the polynomial P(x) has a degree of 0, 1, or 2—the system raises a NonElementary exception when it encounters cases where deg(P) >= 3 [1][4][2]. The example code in examples/risch_integration.py demonstrates this behavior by attempting to integrate sqrt(x^3 + 1). When the integrator processes this input, it detects the elliptic nature of the integrand (due to the degree of the polynomial being 3) and correctly raises the NonElementary exception, which the example script catches and reports [3].

Two CI failures on the previous commit. CodSpeed: `test_ball_sin_cos_eps1e2` 226.6us -> 5468.1us. Routing `IntervalEval`'s Func arm through the registry was right, but it used `default_registry`, whose construction probes 41 primitives across six argument shapes — ~1.2ms of one-time work landing on whichever call touched the registry first. Steady state was never the problem; locally the new dispatch is *faster* than the static match it replaced (19us vs 30us). It is invisible to a wall-clock test and very visible to an instruction-counting one. This path never reads a capability bit: it calls `numeric_ball` on the primitive and treats `None` as unsupported. So it now builds through a new `dispatch_registry`, which registers the same primitives without probing. First call 1.18ms -> 0.24ms; steady state unchanged at 0.02ms. `default_registry` keeps its behaviour by probing in one pass at the end, so `capabilities()` is untouched. The anti-drift guarantee is unchanged and arguably stronger: the accepted set is now the set whose `numeric_ball` kernel returns `Some`, which is ground truth rather than a probed summary of it. rustdoc: public docs on `verified_no_roots` linked to the private `root_exists_witness`, which `-D warnings` rejects. Now a plain code span — same fix as `search_plan` earlier in this series. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
`diff_impl` built `PrimitiveRegistry::default_registry()` *inside* the recursive walk, so every `Func` node reconstructed all 41 primitives — and `default_registry` additionally probes each one's capability bundle, work this path never reads: it only calls `diff_forward` and treats `None` as an unknown function. Now a `OnceLock` built with `dispatch_registry`, the same pattern `ball::registry` uses since PR #302. CodSpeed reported a ~14% regression on `test_series_sin_order12` (which differentiates) after `gamma` gained a ball kernel and made that probe more expensive; this removes the probe and the per-node construction from the path either way. Honest caveat: I could not reproduce the regression reliably on this box — medians ranged 0.234-0.313 ms on both sides, so the local signal is inside run-to-run variance. This change stands on its own merits rather than on a measured fix. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Found the mechanism behind CodSpeed's ~14% regression on `test_series_sin_order12`, which I could not reproduce from wall-clock alone: `PrimitiveRegistry::default_registry()` construction went from ~400us on main to ~767us on this branch. `probe_caps` calls each primitive's `numeric_ball` at *registration*, and once `gamma`, `bessel_j0/j1` and `lambert_w` had real kernels those probes became arbitrary-precision MPFR evaluations rather than cheap Option checks. `default_registry()` is reached from `diff` and `series`. `NUMERIC_BALL` is now resolved when the bit is read, memoised per primitive, exactly as `TAYLOR_MODEL` has been since PR #302. Registry construction is 211us — half of main's, because the ball probe is off the registration path entirely rather than merely cheaper. The series benchmark's first call goes 4.07ms -> 1.19ms against main's 3.90ms; steady state is unchanged. Capabilities are identical: 23 taylor_model, 25 numeric_ball, ball-only {floor, ceil}. Same probe points as before, so `atanh` keeps the bit its (-1, 1) domain would cost it at the 1.0 probe. Third regression from this one mechanism. Both expensive capability bits are now lazy, which should close the class rather than the instance. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Cleanup of defects found while fixing issues #16–#18. Every item below was reproduced on
c5e8665before being touched.The important one:
ArbBall::bessel_jnwas unsoundIt hulled
Jₙ(lo)andJₙ(hi)— valid only for a monotone function.J₀on[-1, 1]has equal endpoints (≈0.7652), so the hull collapsed to a point that excludedJ₀(0) = 1, the function's own maximum. An enclosure that doesn't contain the value is a wrong answer, not a loose one.Rewritten as midpoint + mean-value bound, rigorous at every order:
|Jₙ| ≤ 1for all realx, and|Jₙ′| ≤ 1fromJ₀′ = −J₁plus the recurrence. Verified:J₀over[-1,1]now encloses[0, 2], containing the true range[0.7652, 1.0].This was latent, not live —
IntervalEval::eval_noderefused bessel outright, which is what issue #16's follow-up reported as a coverage gap. Wiring that refusal up without auditing the kernel, which is exactly what "it's a one-line fix" would have done, would have converted an honest refusal into a confident wrong answer.eval_node'sFuncarm now dispatches through the primitive registry rather than a third hand-written name list, so the accepted set is the advertised set by construction. That required a unary guard on all 24numeric_ballimpls — several tookargs[0]unconditionally, sosin(x, y)would have returned a rigorous enclosure ofsin(x). It also fixesatanh, which had a real ball kernel but lost itsnumeric_ballbit becauseprobe_capsprobed at1.0only and its domain is the open interval(-1, 1).A silent error in
UniPoly.coefficients()2**100 * x**2 + 1returned[1, 0, 0]— not saturation, actual zeros, so a quadratic read as the constant1with no exception and no flag. Core already had an exactVec<rug::Integer>accessor; the binding called thei64one. Reachable from ordinary use:factor_z, resultants and pseudo-division all grow coefficients past 64 bits.verified_no_rootsand endpoint rootsxon[0,1]returnedundecidedthough0is a root at the endpoint. The box is closed, so a point of it at whichfis proven zero is a root — no continuity or sign change required. Proof is admitted only from a degenerate[0,0]enclosure or exact symbolic substitution at a seed point; an enclosure that merely contains zero is never used. A control case whose value is below any computable enclosure width staysundecided. Randomised sweep of 240 cases with roots on endpoints, midpoints and interiors: no wrong verdict in either direction.CI: cranelift was never linted
cargo clippy --features cranelifthad no CI step and did not pass, though cranelift ships in the default PyPI wheel since PR #299. Three lints fixed and a step added. Thetoo_many_argumentsfix was a restructure rather than an#[allow], and it removed a real hazard: the old signature tookpoint_idxandn_pointsas independentOptions, so a half-specified batch layout was representable and silently fell through to the scalar branch — now an enum.CONTRIBUTING.mdtold contributors to run--all-features, which cannot build without LLVM+CUDA and so reported nothing; it now documents the per-feature loop CI actually runs.Docs, examples, and a mis-set test
representations.mdwas wrong in six places (badsparse_interpparameter names raisingTypeError, wrong return type, wrong ordering, missing import). All 8 blocks now execute and every# outputcomment matches.UniPoly.leading_coeffbound as a property.risch_integration.pyprinted "ERROR: should have raised" (∫√(x³+1)dx is genus 1 and legitimately returnsEllipticFnow), andlean_certificates.pyprinted an empty Lean export.test_budget.pywas not marginally flaky, it was mis-set: 5.3 s actual against a 6.0 s bound on an idle box; 24.9 s under load. Now bounded on process CPU time (5.3 → 8.8 s under 24 spinners, against 60 s), plus an assertion that the fallback mechanism actually fired, so it still fails if the bound stops working.Verification
