A Refinement-Tower Framework for the Collatz Conjecture
Abstract
We develop a proof-carrying symbolic framework for the accelerated Collatz map on positive integers. The manuscript organizes exact coding, finite refinement levels, Lyapunov-style descent certificates, exceptional-set control, and terminal basin closure into a structured theorem stack. The main result is conditional on verifying a finite family of explicit hypotheses that together force every positive integer into the classical cycle {1,2,4}
