Revision 1.2: internal proof and source review

New result

Theorem 6.1 treats sequences with r tending to infinity and r^2/g tending to zero. If r^3/g tends to tau in [0,infinity], the normalized count n(g,r)/(A_r g^(2r)) tends to exp(-tau/2), with value zero at infinity. Equivalently, the difference between that normalized count and exp(-r^3/(2g)) tends to zero throughout this regime. The error is additive.

This answers a restricted growing-parameter version of the uniformity question left open in the earlier manuscript. It neither proves a uniform onset of monotonicity nor reaches the full Bras-Amorós conjecture. The statement that coefficients alone do not yield a uniform estimate remains correct; the new proof uses a different counting argument.

Proof audit

1. Bulk normalization. The polynomial summand is unimodal and its maximum divided by its integral is O(sqrt(r)). This makes the mesh error uniformly negligible. Falling-factorial errors are O(r^2/g) on a fixed central interval; the remaining polynomial mass has an exponentially small tail. This proves M_r(g) ~ A_r g^(2r) and concentration of the bulk minimum m/g at 1/2 without using the fixed-r expansion outside its range.
2. All exceptional configurations. Addition by the multiplicity forces the low nongaps to occupy terminal segments of residue chains and the high holes to occupy initial segments. Stars-and-bars bounds include every possible number of other additive equalities. For m<=g/2, the normalized upper bound is O(sqrt(r)/g * exp(O(r(r+1)/g))). For m>g/2, the portion above the bulk hole cutoff is at most (exp(3r^2/g)-1)M_r(g). Both vanish on the bulk scale. In the infinite-tau case this does not imply a small exceptional fraction relative to the semigroup count itself.
3. Distinct sums, not pairs. After subtracting the minimum, the free low elements form a sample without replacement from an interval of length comparable to g. Its coupling error with independent sampling is O(r^2/g). The pair count has variance O(r^3). Repeated sums remove only O(r^4/g) positions in expectation, which is o(r^2). Thus the number K of distinct forbidden holes satisfies K/r^2 -> 1/4.
4. Conditional sampling. Given the low set, holes are sampled uniformly without replacement from m positions. The exact validity probability is binom(m-K,r)/binom(m,r). For finite tau, the hypergeometric factorial moments converge to those of Poisson(tau/2). The bound C^k/k! controls the generating-function series, including its value at zero; this justifies the zero-collision limit rather than assuming it from an informal independence heuristic.
5. Infinite parameter and uniform interpretation. When r^3/g diverges, the exponential upper bound on the zero-collision probability gives a zero normalized limit. Compact subsequences in [0,infinity] then give the stated additive approximation. No exponentially small relative error is claimed in that case.

Finite diagnostics

check_uniform.py checks the necessary multiplicity-chain conditions on all 11,753 nonordinary semigroups through genus 16. It compares 1,004 exact bulk fibers with the independent semigroup-tree counts, verifies the outside-bulk upper bounds, and directly tests literal closure for each bulk fiber through genus 8. All checks passed. Exact scale examples also record the bulk normalization and upper bounds at g=r^3 for r=2,4,8,12,20. No simulation or finite calculation is used as a proof of the limit.

The earlier scripts and outputs remain versioned evidence for the fixed-r results; their historical ranges are not relabeled as new tests.

Source and priority scope

The new argument is elementary: residue-chain closure, stars and bars, unimodal Riemann sums, variance estimates, and hypergeometric factorial moments. These standard tools and residue descriptions are not claimed as new. The claimed addition is their use to prove the stated growing-r limit for ordinarization counts.

On September 16, queries combined ordinarization with Poisson, uniform asymptotic, and numerical semigroups with r^3. The primary Cyrusian–Kaplan article remains the comparison source for fixed-r counting. No matching growing-r collision theorem was located in the inspected primary material. The inaccessible r=3 lead noted in the earlier assessment remains a priority limitation. Absence from this limited search does not establish absolute novelty.

Artifact review and stopping condition

The revised PDF has 13 pages. Every final page was visually reviewed, with the new theorem and proof on pages 9–12 inspected individually. The complete Markdown passed semantic round-trip conversion and all 547 MathJax checks; the TeX build had no warning or unresolved reference. These are artifact checks, not independent mathematical review.

The publication is one revision of P34. The full counting conjecture is unresolved, and the broader significant-conjecture goal remains active.
