Overview

Abstract

We study a homogeneous compensated derivative arising from permanent inequalities for centered complex positive semidefinite matrices of order six. On the conjugate-disjoint locus K K̄ = 0, the ordinary omission variance has exactly forty trace-normalized zeros, all sparse rank-one cube-root configurations. On the entire flat, equal-spectrum rank-two stratum, including all compatible complex phases, we determine the compensated derivative explicitly and prove its sharp lower bound 18912 − 140√2. The proof retains the common Gram structure: a real balanced-frame complement gives a complete complex-structure chart, and threefold permutation symmetry eliminates the remaining phase from the paired permanent derivative. An explicit Frobenius tube of radius 10⁻⁶ has a positive uniform margin and contains full-dimensional families of centered rank-five matrices, whose positive rank-one anchors have rank six. A conditioning-free positive-part construction also reduces small conjugate overlap to the exact locus. Its nonflat, unequal-spectrum part and the unrestricted compensation inequality remain open.

Scope of the work

Exactly forty omission-variance zeros on the centered conjugate-disjoint trace-one locus; sharp phase-complete bound F₄ ≥ 18912 − 140√2 on the flat equal-spectrum rank-two stratum; explicit full-rank neighborhood and positive-part reduction. Generic nonflat and unequal-spectrum compensation and the full Chollet conjecture remain open.

Reproduction notes

The supplementary ZIP includes the manuscript PDF, complete editable LaTeX source, a standard-library Python exact verifier, exact output, reader instructions, citation metadata and SHA-256 member manifest. The verifier computes a symbolic coefficient and checks an independent 720-permutation implementation; the universal geometry and phase argument are proved in the paper.
