← P5 / 06 · Explicit Local Unit Cancellation
Following up on v0.7 (which was not separated into its own suite; this document explains its own preamble) which compressed the problem down to the local descent gates P5-DESC11 and P5-VAL011, the goal of this document is to individually isolate every explicitly computable 11-local factor in the Burns-Kurihara-Sano rank-2 element to see if there are still invisible denominators hiding. Using the minimal model, it precisely calculates #E(F₁₁)=16, a₁₁=-4, and the good prime truncation factor L₁₁(E,1)⁻¹=16/11 (valuation -1); the split multiplicative truncation factor for the bad prime 389 is 388/389 (valuation 0). The true technical core is precisely calculating the valuation of the 11-adic logarithm: using standard parameters of the formal group, it precisely calculates that 16P' falls into the formal group and v₁₁(t(16P'))=1. Combined with the property that the formal logarithm on t∈11ℤ₁₁ agrees with t itself modulo 11², it deduces v₁₁(log_ω(P))=1 with a residue of 4 mod 11. Multiplying the three factors: v₁₁(u_loc)=(-1)+0+1=0, and u_loc≡4 (mod 11)—which is exactly an 11-adic unit. This means that under the already fixed normalization, multiplying by u_loc changes neither the domain barrier nor the valuation, hence β_ξ·u_loc∈ℚ₁₁ ⟺ β_ξ∈ℚ₁₁, and their valuations are equal. The document explicitly states: this does not prove β_ξ∈ℚ₁₁ nor does it prove its valuation is zero; the only confirmed positive result is that "there are no hidden 11-local denominators needing explanation"—eliminating an entire erroneous direction that could have otherwise consumed research time.
Relationship with other documents, try to use the words from its own document, not my interpretation.
"there is no hidden 11-local denominator left to explain. The remaining wall is genuinely the descent/unit property of the normalized complex rank-2 leading scalar." — Excerpt from Section "7. Refining the P5 Frontier" of this document.
