R0042-21752 · q-20261014-advance-20261109-r06-mobius-function-0077

Original question and givens

Use nonpositive bounded integer n=-1. Give (n, in_positive_domain, mu_or_null, boundary).

  • G001 — Use nonpositive bounded integer n=-1. Give (n, in_positive_domain, mu_or_null, boundary).

Definition and scope

Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.

Step-by-step derivation

S001 · implies

Before

source operation=mobius-domain-boundary;original snapshot and mathematics retained

After

explicit ordered source output fields=[n, in_positive_domain, mu_or_null, boundary]

Conditions: none

Keep the original historical interface marker while listing ordered source fields without JavaScript.Tags are not additional evidence;fixed No markers retain their source claim scope.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: source_ordered_interface_explicit_without_javascript · Uses: G001

S002 · implies

Before

ORIGINAL bounded integer n=-1<=0

After

in_positive_domain=No;mu_or_null=null;do not apply positive-integer squarefree parity convention here

Conditions: none

This function is declared on positive integers.Zero and negatives are outside this model;null is not a value of0,nor a denial that other extensions can be defined.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: mobius_nonpositive_outside_declared_domain · Uses: G001, S001

Reverse checks

  • S002 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.
  • S001 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.

Result

(-1, No, null, Mobius_domain_positive_integers_only)

The full substitutions and premise checks give the original answer; source identity,format and status are unchanged.
