Computer-assisted proof demonstrates that parallel execution cannot bypass single-instance communication costs, providing verified resource guarantees for secure cloud infrastructure.
Using the Lean 4 interactive theorem prover, this paper presents a machine-verified structural resolution of the Direct Product Conjecture in communication complexity. Extending Hilbert space orthogonal projections and ANOVA-Hoeffding decompositions beyond linear variance, we bridge non-linear information metrics through Kullback-Leibler divergence tensorization, Han's inequality, and a Pinsker-bounded simulation operator. By controlling cross-coordinate conditioning drift, our deductive pipeline formally proves the affirmative resolution: parallel execution cannot bypass single-instance information costs, establishing that: CC_ε(fᵏ) ≥ k · R_δ(f) - o(k) This rigorously verified lower bound resolves the conjecture, providing essential, provable resource guarantees for secure multi-party computation and distributed cloud infrastructure.
