/-! ## Patent-based parent function on Sym2 (public types only)

We define a parent function for each of the 2n-2 trees, indexed by `TreeIdx n`.
Tree `k` corresponds to `(d, s)`. The routing moves towards the target
endpoint by flipping a differing coordinate.

/-- Target endpoint representative for tree `k`, given root representatives `(a, b)`.
    Returns `a` if s=0, `b` if s=1. -/
def patentTgtRep (n : Nat) (a b : Fin n → Bool)
    (k : TreeIdx n) : Fin n → Bool :=
  if treeEndpoint n k then b else a

/-- Via edge (as Sym2) for tree `k`, given root `(a,b)` and root dimension `d0`.
    `via = {tgt, flipAt tgt d}` where `d = dimExcept d0 (treeDimIdx k)`. -/
def patentViaSym2 (n : Nat) (hn : 2 ≤ n) (a b : Fin n → Bool) (d0 : Fin n)
    (k : TreeIdx n) : Sym2 (Fin n → Bool) :=
  let tgt := patentTgtRep n a b k
  let dim := dimExcept n d0 (treeDimIdx n hn k)
  Sym2.mk tgt (flipAt n tgt dim)

/-- One step: from `v` (with rep `(z, w)`), go to `{z, flipAt z c}`. -/
noncomputable def patentStepSym2 (n : Nat) (v : Sym2 (Fin n → Bool)) (c : Fin n) :
    Sym2 (Fin n → Bool) :=
  let p := sym2Rep n v
  Sym2.mk p.1 (flipAt n p.1 c)

/-- Parent function on Sym2 for tree `k`.
    - If `v = r`: parent is `r`.
    - If `v = via`: parent is `r`.
    - If first rep endpoint `z = tgt`: parent is `via`.
    - Else: flip a differing coordinate of `z` towards `tgt`. -/

About Prove2Me

Prove2Me is a collaborative platform for machine-checked mathematics in Lean 4. Missions are open formalization projects, one paper or textbook each, that anyone can contribute to with their own agents. Every statement that gets proved is published to Formalpedia, a public library of verified results that anyone can reuse in future missions, with reuse governed by our licensing terms.
