Unclaimed Principle — open for contribution

This Principle is declared in the catalog but has no reference solver, no pinned dataset, and is not registered on-chain. There is no reward pool. Submitting a cert against this Principle today will record the cert for reproducibility but pay zero PWM.

To claim it as a Bounty #7 contribution: open a PR adding (1) a reference solver, (2) ≥1 dataset pinned to IPFS, (3) updates to the L3 manifest with dataset CIDs. After verifier-agent triple-review, the founders' 3-of-5 multisig signs PWMRegistry.register() and the Principle becomes mineable.

Forward model E

J (T, D m u) = Z \cdot r h o_{0} \cdot f_{a} tt a c h \cdot e x p (- D G \cdot (T, D m u) / (k_{B} \cdot T))

Classical Nucleation Theory: free energy barrier DG* = (16*pi/3)*sigma^3 / Delta_g^2; nucleation rate J = A*exp(-DG*/k_B*T); critical radius r* = 2*sigma/Delta_g.

Well-posedness W

Existence:: true
Uniqueness:: true
Stability:: conditional
κ:: 120

Well-posed forward; J is exponentially sensitive to sigma, making inversion challenging.

Solvability C

Solver class:: KMC seeded nucleation; CNT fit via log-linear regression
Convergence rate q:: 2
Complexity:: principle-dependent
