Case contract

Integer matrix/vector entries, rectangular rows, compatible multiplication dimensions, and square matrices for determinant, trace, inverse, symmetry and characteristic-polynomial operations. Rational matrix outputs are reduced Fraction strings. Matrix symmetry predicate. Exact operational definition: all(m[i][j]==m[j][i] for i in range(len(m)) for j in range(len(m)))

Why this case matters

Small exact fixtures expose this error without platform timing, external services, or probabilistic observations. Linear algebra results depend on the stated convention.

One recorded failure

Sample boundary fixture

This sample comes from the broken implementation of a controlled reproducer.
