T-129: Three dated Daniel certificate reports with historical source custody

V0 C0 Upper bound recorded superseded by T-146 and T-174

2026-10-07 published · Daniel after Couzo, Levy · n=105,130,292

Complete author certificate reports at 105, 130 and 292 are retained with matching inputs and separate immutable pins, at the exact sides they state: s(105)≤10.806077865519704632682966129102, s(130)≤11.911187706535762355657987890878 and s(292)≤17.597249391156465040647414499422. All three exact sides are superseded by smaller currently verified bounds; selected cases and original T-098/T-101 assurance are unchanged.

Significance, composition and next rung
Significance
Historical certificate custody without a current frontier improvement.
Next rung
Optional scoped historical geometry replay requires dedicated complete deciding inputs and controls; it would not replace any current selected bound.
Novelty
previously-published Present in an identified source
