VibeMathed reports this item as resolved. VibeMath preserves that report as a source assertion and has not independently authored a plain-language mathematical explanation.

Precise statement

For a differential poset $P$, must the weighted $2$-multichain series $M_{P,2}(q)$ be a rational multiple of $F_P(q)^2$, the square of its rank generating series?

The source statement is reproduced for indexing with attribution. Mathematical correctness requires domain-expert or mechanical review. VibeMath has not independently audited statement fidelity, correctness, priority, or novelty.

What AI did

TARS agent system

The construction was found by the TARS agent system (foundation model not disclosed); the proof was reconstructed and manually verified by the human authors.

Provider: unknown · Prompt public: unknown · Independence: unknown

Verification boundary

unreviewed

A locally finite $1$-differential poset with nonrational quotient series over every characteristic-zero field; the construction yields continuum many such series. Author-verified arXiv preprint, not yet peer-reviewed.

Correctness: unknown · statement fidelity: unaudited · peer review: none
