Mechanisms

• Untrusted Solver with Trusted Checker
  • The company gets to use a solver it does not trust while trusting only code it wrote and understands — the certifying-algorithm discipline.

    This sourceApplies the certifying-algorithm discipline to use an untrusted solver while trusting only independently understood checking code.

Verification

Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.

Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
