The Perfect Cuboid: from the Continuous World and Radix Representation to Arithmetic Freedom Phase 1G–1J · the p²q frontier unsigned in the source

The First Surviving Diagonal Type g = p²q: the Seven-State System, Four Unresolved Classes and 57 → 42 → 22 Orbits

For g = p²q there are seven even-leg states and 105 relations, expanded and factorised; a scan over p, q ≤ 20,000 (1,264,500 ordered pairs) finds no internal triple; valuation and conjugation arguments reduce the seven-state problem to four unresolved classes {1,6,7}, {2,4,6}, {2,4,7}, {4,6,7}; conjugation reduces the 105 relations to 57 orbits, two prime-norm obstructions plus inherited gates remove 15, leaving 42 orbits (78 raw relations); a 2-adic valuation-pattern gate removes 20 more, leaving 22 orbits (44 of the 105 raw relations).

This is the surviving frontier, not a result: the papers say 'exploratory evidence only; it is not a global exclusion' and 'no claim is made that these 42 orbits are genuinely solvable'. Phase 1G-B cites an unnamed-source 'ProofAtlas' exclusion and an uncited 'Pocklington quartic' fact (no coprime solution with |x|, |y| ≤ 4000) and is not reconciled with the 22 orbits of 1I/1J. The orbit counts 57/42/22 and the attribution to Korec 1992 were not redone in the pre-publication read-through.
