Allpass passes the input without the a coefficient · case 05
The section is not allpass; its DC gain differs from 1.
Case contract
Input [a, samples]: y[n] = a x[n] + x[n-1] - a y[n-1] with zero state, "unstable" if |a| >= 1. Return exact fraction strings.
Why this case matters
Allpass sections build phase equalizers and fractional delays; any coefficient slip breaks the unit-magnitude property.
One recorded failure
Sample boundary fixtureThis sample comes from the broken implementation of a controlled reproducer.
| Boundary fixture | Actual | Expected | Outcome |
|---|---|---|---|
| regression: random allpass 9 | ["1", "-9/4", "9/16", "311/64", "-55/256", "3127/1024"] | ["1/4", "3/16", "-147/64", "1043/256", "749/1024", "-749/4096"] | Failed |
