An Arithmetic Stratification of Polynomial Continued Fractions: Program Statement of the SIARC Series (v2.2: Full M-axis V0 Closure Series)

v2. 2 (May 2026): Consolidates full M-axis V0 closure series (M4, M7, M8a, M8b) and M6. CC R1; supersedes v2. 1 internal staging. Version difference The v2. 2 revision of the SIARC umbrella program statement extends the v2. 0 §Closure Cascade and Bridge Provenance section from 3 milestones to 6 milestones, adding the M-axis V0 ratification cascade triple landed 2026-05-09: M7 V0 (cubic/quartic borderline-anormal A residual; soft-branch ratification at MEDIUM-HIGH; bridge SHA 7f93b9e; SOFT-BRANCH, HARD-BRANCH-PENDING), M8a V0 (catalogue-wide Painlevé-test stratum labeling via the Conte–Musette necessary criterion; 60/60 LABELED uniformly; bridge SHA cb429e1; ALG-TEST-SCALE, STOKES-DICHOTOMY-DELEGATED-TO-M8B), and M8b V0 (numerical foreclosure of the laptop-feasible |S2| extraction at d=2; cross-provider dual-witness; bridge SHA 74c5630; NUMERICAL-FORECLOSURE, d≥3 caveat carried forward). The v2. 0 → v2. 2 version sequence skips v2. 1 (internal staging only at bridge 883dddf, 2026-05-09) per the operative cascade-132 (fd669d3) PATHB decision. All mathematical content, conjectures, open problems, and the §Cross-Degree Triple are unchanged from v2. 0; v2. 2 is a status/provenance addendum, not a content revision. §2. 1 Deposit-time companion-artefact snapshot Companion artefact state at deposit time (2026-05-11 JST): PCF-2 v1. 4 (10. 5281/zenodo. 20114315, deposited 2026-05-11; cascade-132 Option α Step 1 landed), Channel Theory v1. 3 (10. 5281/zenodo. 19972394, deposited 2026-05-02), T2B v3. 0 (10. 5281/zenodo. 19915689, deposited 2026-04-30), PCF-1 v1. 3 (10. 5281/zenodo. 19937196, deposited 2026-05-01).

Bridge cascade SHAs are content-addressed persistent identifiers; URLs may decay if the siarc-relay-bridge repository is renamed but SHAs remain recoverable from any clone. Per-deposit semantics: Umbrella v2. 2 absorbs the V0-closure cascade via the v2. 2 §Closure Cascade and Bridge Provenance amendment. The 4 V0-closed axes (M4, M7, M8a, M8b) and the M6. CC retirement are program-tier provenance for the Umbrella program statement, not new mathematical content; this is the semantic distinction between Umbrella v2. 2 (provenance-tier amendment) and Umbrella v2. 3 (forthcoming; mathematical content amendment).
