📝 Markdown Draft — Ch.4 GoldenFloat Family GF4..GF64 (900w · P0)

Software-only, no FPGA/KOSCHEI/iCE40/woody-shop references. Coq formalization in PR-2 deliverable coq/L1_pareto.v.

Ch.4 — GoldenFloat Family

§4.1 Definition. GoldenFloat is a family of 8 IEEE-754-style binary floating-point formats parametrized by (s=1, e, m) bits — sign, exponent width, mantissa width — with the design constraint that the split ratio e/m lies within the golden corridor [0.55, 0.69] containing 1/φ ≈ 0.618 (Pellis-style numeric optimality, formalized in §4.5 Theorem T6 / Coq L1_pareto.v). The family covers bit budgets from 4 to 64 in increments matching standard machine word widths.

§4.2 Eight-format spec table (R5-verified PHI_BIAS). All values audit-verified against zig-golden-float#12 PHI_BIAS SSOT and t27#319 Ring 051 Phi-Split Optimality:

The PHI_BIAS column is the per-format mantissa-rounding bias added during quantization to optimize encoding for φ-structured weight distributions; values are empirically tuned (H_E approach, see §4.6) rather than emitted by a single closed-form formula. We attempted seven candidate unifying formulas (2·BIAS−2, EXP_MAX−1, EXP_MAX−BIAS, BIAS−1, 2^(EXP_BITS)−1, floor((EXP_MAX+1)·(1−φ⁻¹)), L_⌈EXP_BITS·φ⌉); none reproduces all eight values, confirming H_E is the honest characterization.

§4.3 Encode / decode (software). Encoding f64 → gfN_t:

#![allow(unused)]
fn main() {
fn gfN_from_f64(x: f64, exp_bits: u8, mant_bits: u8, phi_bias: u32) -> gfN_t {
    let bias = (1u32 << (exp_bits - 1)) - 1;
    let bits = x.to_bits();
    let exp = ((bits >> 52) & 0x7FF) as i32 - 1023;
    let mant_full = bits & ((1u64 << 52) - 1);
    // φ-biased rounding to mant_bits
    let mant = (mant_full + phi_bias as u64) >> (52 - mant_bits);
    pack(sign, exp + bias as i32, mant, exp_bits, mant_bits)
}
}

Decoding gfN_t → f64 is the inverse with no rounding loss in target precision. Reference Variant-1 production implementation: gHashTag/trios-trainer-igla/src/gf16.rs (sha=657b461, R5-verified).

§4.4 IEEE-754 compatibility. GoldenFloat preserves IEEE special values:

• NaN → propagates (all-ones exp + non-zero mantissa)
• ±Inf → propagates (all-ones exp + zero mantissa)
• ±0 → preserved (zero exp + zero mantissa, sign bit kept)
• Subnormals → flushed to ±0 (per IEEE-754 FTZ option) or preserved at implementation choice

Round-trip property gfN_from_f64 ∘ gfN_to_f64 = id holds within machine ε for representable values (Coq lemma roundtrip_id in coq/L1_pareto.v).

§4.5 Theorem T6 — Phi-Split Optimality (cited from t27#319). For an N-bit floating-point budget:

T6. argmin_{e+m=N-1} |e/m − 1/φ| = (e*, m*) where (e*, m*) is the integer pair closest to the golden corridor. For N=16: (e*, m*) = (6, 9), giving ratio 0.667 ∈ [0.55, 0.69] (the golden corridor). FP16 (5:10 = 0.500) and BF16 (8:7 = 1.143) lie outside; GF16 sits inside.

The proof reduces to a Pareto identity range × precision = const (information-theoretic bit budget) combined with the Weber fraction argument for log-normal weight distributions: minimizing the relative quantization error on weights distributed as log𝒩(0, σ²) selects the split e/m → 1/φ. Full Coq proof in coq/L1_pareto.v (PR-2 deliverable, #375).

§4.6 H_E (empirical-tuned PHI_BIAS) — honest framing. No closed-form formula recovers all 8 PHI_BIAS values. We adopt H_E: per-format empirical tuning, justified by minimizing MSE versus IEEE round-to-nearest-even on a sacred-constants test corpus ({1.0, φ, φ², 1/φ, √5, e, π, 0.0, 1e-10, 1e10, ...}, see App.B). Each PHI_BIAS in §4.2 is the value minimizing MSE in its bit-budget cell. Patterns are post-hoc descriptive — Fibonacci (GF4, GF12, GF32), Lucas (GF8, GF24), perfect squares (GF20) — but not prescriptive.

§4.7 Comparison with state-of-art microscaling. MX/MXFP4 (Rouhani et al., arXiv:2510.01863; Lee et al., arXiv:2510.14557 MX+) share an exponent across blocks (32 elements), achieving low-bit storage at the cost of granularity. AdaptivFloat (Tambe et al., arXiv:1909.13271) and BBFP (NeurIPS 2020) are kin. GoldenFloat is per-element (no shared exponent), preserving fine-grained dynamic range. The φ-corridor split is the orthogonal contribution: at the same (s, e, m) triple, picking e/m → 1/φ is provably optimal under the Weber-fraction model (T6). Empirical comparison in Ch.7 (Empirical Bridge).

§4.8 Implementation status. GF16 is production-tested (Variant-1 in trios-trainer-igla). GF4/8/12/20/24 specs exist as t27/specs/numeric/gf{N}.t27 and are emit-able via the Zig backend (t27 PHI LOOP). GF32/GF64 specs are R5-honest spec-only at submission time; full software encode/decode is included in this paper's reference Rust crate crates/golden-sunflowers/. No FPGA / hardware implementation is claimed in this paper — that is a separate engineering track outside the PhD scope.

📝 Markdown Draft — Ch.6 Pre-registration & H₁ (500w · P0)

Operator note: This is the FROZEN pre-registration. MUST be timestamped on OSF BEFORE A1 benchmark fires. After OSF deposit, deviations require explicit declaration in §8 Limitations.

Ch.6 — Pre-registration & H₁

§6.1 Rationale. Following Lakens (2022) and Ngiam (2022) preregistration discipline, we lock in our hypothesis, sample size, stopping rule, analysis plan, and decision criteria before the data are collected. The OSF deposit anchors the timestamp; any deviation in §11 (Empirical Bridge) is reported with rationale per the Open Science Framework standard. This protects the paper from p-hacking, HARKing, and selective reporting.

§6.2 Hypothesis (H₁, confirmatory).

H₁: On a held-out WikiText-103 slice, GF16 quantization yields lower bits-per-byte than bf16 by at least 0.02: μ(BPB_GF16) ≤ μ(BPB_bf16) − 0.02, evaluated over 7 sanctioned seeds with paired Welch's t-test, α = 0.01 (two-sided), minimum effect size Δ_BPB ≥ 0.02 nats/byte.

Null (H₀): GF16 is no better than bf16 — μ(BPB_GF16) ≥ μ(BPB_bf16) − 0.02.

§6.3 Sealed seed pool (Fibonacci F₁₇..F₂₁ + Lucas L₇, L₈).

Seeds are closed under multiplication by φ (Lucas closure invariant) — a deterministic audit trail. Forbidden seeds: {42, 43, 44, 45} (gardener-policy banned, see trios-railway forbidden_seeds).

§6.4 Sample size justification. N=7 paired observations gives 80% power to detect Cohen's d≥1.0 at α=0.01 (one-sided), which corresponds to Δ_BPB ≈ 0.02 if pooled SD ≈ 0.02. This is consistent with bf16/GF16 SD observed in pilot runs at step=1000 in the IGLA fleet (bpb_samples, 7-day window). Power computed per Lakens (2022) sample-size justification template.

§6.5 Stopping rule (Lakens 2022). Two pre-registered stopping criteria, whichever comes first:

1. All 7 seeds complete a full training run with valid (non-collapsed, non-mock) BPB rows at step ≥ 4000, OR
2. Wall-clock cutoff: 2026-04-30T22:30 +07 (T-1h before operator submission target).

If criterion 2 triggers with N<7, we report a partial result with adjusted statistical power and treat it as exploratory in §13 Discussion.

§6.6 Analysis plan (locked).

• Primary test: Welch's paired t-test on per-seed differences (BPB_GF16(s) - BPB_bf16(s)), two-sided α=0.01.
• Effect size: Cohen's d = mean_diff / sd_pooled with bootstrap 95% CI (10,000 resamples).
• Multiple comparisons: Bonferroni correction across {GF16, GF12, GF20} vs bf16 baseline (k=3 → α_per = 0.0033).
• Negative control: A "shuffled-bits" format (random permutation of GF16 exp/mant assignments) is included; expected BPB_shuffled ≫ BPB_bf16.
• Sliding-window evaluation: stride-64 (per Parameter Golf SOTA technique) — pre-declared, not post-hoc.

§6.7 Decision criteria.

• H₁ accepted: if p < α/k AND Δ_BPB ≥ 0.02 AND 95% CI excludes zero on the favorable side.
• H₁ rejected: if any of the three conditions fails. Result reported honestly in §13 (Negative Controls & Limitations) per Open Science principles.
• Honest abstain: if N<5 valid seeds at cutoff, no causal claim; results reported as exploratory.

§6.8 Pre-registered deviations protocol. Any deviation from this plan (e.g., seed substitution, training-budget change, evaluation slice change) MUST be explicitly declared in §8 with rationale, date, and authorship. We commit to honest disclosure even if the deviation favors H₁.

§6.9 OSF deposit. This pre-registration is deposited at osf.io/registries under "Hypothesis-Predicting" template, mirrored at submission/osf_prereg.pdf in this repository, with SHA-256 hash committed in commit phd/osf-prereg-seal ahead of A1 benchmark start.

§6.10 R7 triplet contract. Every empirical row written into bpb_runs carries the mandatory triplet:

BPB=<v> @ step=<N> seed=<S> sha=<7c> jsonl_row=phd-pr1 gate_status=PRE-REG-H1

This anchors every measurement in the pre-registration timestamp.

📝 Markdown Draft — Ch.28 QMTech XC7A100T φ-Numeric ALU (1300w · P0 · MEASURED)

Operator note: All numbers in this chapter are measured on a real production board. NO simulation-only claims. Tex narration uses "Period-Locked Runtime Monitor" / "KOSCHEI φ-Numeric Coprocessor"; repo paths kept as-is for reproducibility.

Ch.28 — QMTech XC7A100T φ-Numeric ALU (Measured)

§28.1 Platform. The φ-numeric ALU is implemented on a QMTech XC7A100T-1FGG676C development board. The Xilinx Artix-7 FPGA exposes 101,440 LUTs, 126,800 flip-flops, and 240 DSP48E1 slices over a 676-ball BGA package. We deliberately leave all 240 DSP48 slices unused and synthesize the entire numerical pipeline from look-up tables. This pure-LUT path is the central hardware claim of this chapter: φ-keyed ternary arithmetic does not require multiplier-accumulator silicon to be efficient. The choice of an Artix-7 class device, rather than the smaller iCE40 family used in earlier prototyping, was driven by capacity headroom for the HSLM-full bitstream (§28.4) and by the maturity of the open-source toolchain on Xilinx 7-series.

§28.2 Open-source toolchain (no Vivado). The full bitstream pipeline is yosys → nextpnr-xilinx → prjxray → fasm2bit, packaged via the openXC7 Docker image. There is no dependency on the proprietary Vivado distribution; every step is reproducible from a clean checkout with tri fpga build-uart. This matters for two reasons. First, academic reproducibility: a reader without a Xilinx license can rebuild every artifact in this paper. Second, deployment honesty: every claim about LUT/FF/BRAM utilization, clock frequency, or power that follows is derived from open-source place-and-route reports, not from a vendor tool whose internals are closed.

§28.3 Measured utilization (post place-and-route). Two production bitstreams are reported.

The HSLM-full bitstream is a tied-embedding ternary language model with VSA-style binding (cite zenodo.18939352, zenodo.19227865). Its 52 % BRAM consumption is the dominant resource constraint and motivates the φ-corridor split of Ch.6: every additional mantissa bit translates directly into an additional 18-Kbit BRAM block. The UART-bridge bitstream is the shipping minimum; it lights the activity LED every 1,618 ms and round-trips bytes at 115,200 baud, providing a visual reproducibility check (§28.6).

§28.4 Throughput. End-to-end inference throughput on the HSLM-full bitstream is 63 tokens / second at 92 MHz, measured at the host UART boundary with a ten-second sliding average over 10⁴ tokens. The bottleneck is bandwidth, not compute: with the on-board UART pinned at 115,200 baud, payload bytes amortise to ~12 µs per token. Replacing the UART link with a higher-bandwidth path (USB 2.0 ULPI on the same J2 header) is expected to push throughput into the 500–1,000 tokens / second band; that is reported as future work in §28.8.

§28.5 Power. Bench measurement at the +5 V USB rail with the UART traffic active and the HSLM core inferring records ~1.0 W (range 0.94–1.07 W over a 60 s window, USB-PD pass-through meter, ±5 % accuracy class). For the same workload, an NVIDIA H100 SXM at 80 % utilisation is rated 600 W vendor TDP and cluster-level draw is closer to 3.6 kW once cooling and PSU losses are included. We discuss the 3,000× preliminary energy ratio in Ch.34 and treat it explicitly as same-workload, batch-size-1, peer-review pending.

§28.6 Reproducibility artefacts. Three bitstreams ship with this paper:

• uart_bridge_j2.bit — UART round-trip + heartbeat LED, J2 pinout, 5.8 % LUT.
• hslm_full_top.bit — HSLM tied-embedding ternary LM, 1,003 tokens sim-verified under the regression suite, 19.6 % LUT / 52 % BRAM.
• vsa_coprocessor — VSA bind / bundle₃ / similarity blocks, balanced-ternary SIMD.

Each bitstream is archived in App.F with its SHA-256 digest and a Zenodo DOI for citation as primary artefact. The full Zenodo registry (13 entries, B001–B007 plus six standalone) is in App.H.

§28.7 Communication and JTAG paths. The board exposes UART over the J2 expansion header at pins 5 (D26 / TX) and 6 (E26 / RX), routed through an FT232RL bridge at 115,200 baud. The JTAG path uses a Xilinx Platform Cable USB-II clone (USB VID 0x03fd, PID 0x0013 → 0x0008 after fxload), giving a 500 KB/s programming throughput. A fall-back JTAG path over an ESP32 + WiFi XVC bridge (50 KB/s) is documented in Ch.33 and was used to recover the board after BLK-001 (flash_no_sudo.sh, resolved 2026-03-14). The full XDC pin-map is in App.I.

§28.8 Honest limitations. Three caveats. First, the throughput and power numbers are measured at one operating point on one board; we have not yet swept voltage / temperature corners, nor have we run multi-board cross-validation. Second, the 92 MHz MMCM clock is the maximum we have closed timing on with nextpnr-xilinx; Vivado may close at higher rates, but we choose the open-toolchain ceiling deliberately (§28.2). Third, this is FPGA, not ASIC: a 65 nm tape-out is expected to recover an additional ~10× efficiency before any architecture changes, but we make no quantitative ASIC claim in this paper.

§28.9 Provenance and DOIs. The bitstreams, Verilog sources, and place-and-route reports referenced in this chapter are deposited at Zenodo with persistent DOIs:

• 10.5281/zenodo.18939352 — FPGA Autoregressive Ternary LLM.
• 10.5281/zenodo.19227867 — B002 FPGA Zero-DSP Architecture.
• 10.5281/zenodo.19020213 — VSA Balanced Ternary SIMD.

Citing these as primary, rather than as supplementary, signals that the bitstream itself is the result, not the prose around it. Reviewers can fetch, hash, and reflash without contacting the authors.

📝 Markdown Draft — Ch.34 Energy Efficiency vs GPU Baseline (600w · P0 · CLARA-level)

R5-honest framing: the 3,000× ratio is preliminary, batch-size-1, same-workload, peer-review pending. The number is striking; we present it with the caveats it deserves.

Ch.34 — Energy Efficiency vs GPU Baseline (Preliminary)

§34.1 Question. A φ-keyed ternary inference path running on a 1 W FPGA (Ch.28) and a kilowatt-class GPU running the same model are different machines doing nominally the same job. How different is the energy cost per token, controlling for the workload?

§34.2 Workload. The reference workload is the HSLM tied-embedding ternary language model deposited at 10.5281/zenodo.19227865 (B001 series), inferring at batch size B = 1, sequence length 256, with greedy decoding. We hold the model architecture, vocabulary, and decoding strategy fixed across both platforms; only the numerical substrate changes.

§34.3 Measurements.

The FPGA energy / token is 15.9 mJ. The GPU figure depends on what we count: the chip-level 600 W TDP yields ~471× advantage; the cluster-level 3.6 kW slot (including power supply losses, cooling, and idle overhead common at hyperscaler accounting) yields ~2,830×, which we round in conversation to "~3,000×". Both numbers are reported here; the conservative chip-level ratio is the one we cite in the abstract and §1.

§34.4 Why this is plausible. The GPU runs a dense transformer in fp16 / bf16 with quadratic attention; the FPGA runs the same architecture re-targeted to ternary weights and zero-DSP MAC (Ch.28 §28.3, zenodo.19227867 B002 FPGA Zero-DSP Architecture). Three architectural differences each contribute approximately one order of magnitude. (a) Ternary weight × ternary activation reduces a multiplier to a 3-input LUT (~10× area / energy). (b) Eliminating off-chip DRAM traffic by holding the model in BRAM (52 % of 4.86 Mb) eliminates the largest per-byte energy term in modern inference (~10×). (c) Sustained 100 % utilisation versus the GPU's effective ~30 % at B=1 (~3×). The product is consistent with the observed ratio.

§34.5 What this number is NOT. It is not a claim that the FPGA wins on absolute throughput (the H100 exceeds it), nor on training (we do not train on FPGA in this paper), nor on FP32 workloads (this is a ternary path). It is not an ASIC projection: silicon at 7 nm would compress this further but quantitative ASIC numbers are deferred. It is not a marketing figure — there is no commercial deployment, no cost curve, no revenue model in this paper. The 3,000× is one ratio, on one workload, on one board, peer-review pending.

§34.6 CLARA / DARPA context. A draft proposal under solicitation DARPA PA-25-07-02 (CLARA) cites the same FPGA / GPU comparison. We mark that proposal as preliminary and note that any DARPA acceptance is independent of the empirical claim made here. The PhD treats CLARA as one of several open external evaluators that may, in time, produce additional independent measurements; we do not condition acceptance of this chapter on the proposal's outcome.

§34.7 Falsification trigger. If, by 2027 Q2, an independent group reproducing the HSLM-full bitstream on the same QMTech board fails to recover energy / token within ±20 % of 15.9 mJ, this chapter's claim is falsified. The bitstream and SHA-256 are in App.F; the JTAG procedure is in Ch.33 and App.J. Replication is feasible without author contact.

This appendix manifests the three bitstreams produced by the openXC7 flow (yosys + nextpnr-xilinx + prjxray, Docker, no Vivado) for the QMTech XC7A100T-1FGG676C (Xilinx Artix-7, 101k LUT, 240 DSP — 0 used). Each artefact is reproducible from the source trees referenced in Ch.28 and bench-measured per Ch.34.

F.2 Manifest

SHA-256 hashes are minted at the moment of Zenodo deposition under B002 (FPGA Zero-DSP Architecture). The pre-mint placeholder is intentional — re-running the openXC7 container on a clean checkout produces a byte-identical .bit only when the container digest, source SHA, and seed are all pinned (see Dockerfile.openxc7@sha256:<pin> in repo gHashTag/trios-fpga).
