FA-40346 / Heap invariants / Open access

Lazy heap logical emptiness follows the presence of a current physical record · case 01

The bounded lazy pop certificate reports an incorrect empty.

ROOT CAUSE

Lazy heap logical emptiness follows the presence of a current physical record.

VERIFIED REPAIR

Derive empty using j is None under the stated bounded certificate contract.

Unsuccessful approach: The local patch uses not live and still violates the stated relation.

Case contract

Physical lazy-heap records [priority,serial,id,version] are already sorted lexicographically by priority then serial. Live map id->[version,payload]. Skip missing or version-stale records, pop the first current record, delete its live-map id, and retain the remaining physical suffix. No unindexed priority changes are allowed.

Why this case matters

This isolates an internal heap representation or priority-structure invariant using deterministic finite records.

Verification & scope

A stipulated offline diagnostic model; it does not implement a production allocator, concurrency protocol, or complete heap library. This reproducer isolates one failure mechanism. Results cover the supplied fixtures. Variants within a family share a test contract and should remain grouped when constructing evaluation splits. Related mechanisms with a shared evaluation_group must also remain together; these controlled models are not independent production incidents.
