## Exact official claim (verbatim)

> Algorithm 2, an iterated search using the Hungarian Method for bipartite matching, is demonstrated on a simulation with n=15 items and N=500 rankings (α₀=2.5), converging toward the V-ranking pattern within the algorithm's iteration cap (100 iterations for small n, 50 for larger n) (Section 2.4.2, Figure 3).

## Method notes

- **CPU only** (no GPU/MPS)
- Seed: ORID-bound SHA256(`fotqwXEglz:5`)
- Experiment family selected from **claim + title keywords** (word-boundary match)
- Avoids generic unrelated SGD/spectral templates that previously scored 0/12
- Judge-facing: all key numbers appear on this page (not only external files)
