Strict exact6291/9971 mechanical numerator bounds between2403660 and2403661 times the positive power gap
Provedsyracuse_mechanical_numerator_6291_9971_strict_baseline_boundsDefine the natural-number arithmetic sum M = sum over j=0,...,6290 of 3^(6291-1-j) * 2^floor(9971j/6291), and the natural power gap D = 2^9971 - 3^6291. The exact conclusion is 3^6291 < 2^9971 and 2403660D < M and M < 2403661*D. Thus the gap is strictly positive and both numerator bounds are strict. No hypothesis is supplied and no Syracuse trajectory, cycle, word realization or baseline theorem is assumed. The Syracuse prefix and baseline wording describe research context only; the type is Mathlib-only arithmetic. In particular2403661 is not thereby a proved cycle-exclusion or descent baseline. This new source-only submission packet requires independent whole-packet review and fresh kernel verification; neither prior source review nor historical source-pattern acceptance transfers acceptance or runtime authority.
