Adaptive Search in Collatz Exponent-Code Space via 2-adic and 3-adic Constraints
arXiv:2607.10041v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study a symbolic search space for the Collatz conjecture based on finite exponent codes of the accelerated map. Each code records the number of divisions by two after every 3n + 1 step and determines three quantities: real drift, a 2-adic start representative, and a 3-
