CMB Power Spectrum Parameter Estimation L1-366
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
CMB Power Spectrum Parameter Estimation: CMB parameter estimation: infer cosmological parameters from CMB temperature and polarization power spectra via Boltzmann code. The forward operator produces the measurement through a 3-node primitive DAG (S.boltzmann.transfer…); recovery is posed as a parameter_estimation problem. Difficulty tier delta=5 with effective condition number kappa_eff~200; foreground_contamination, beam_uncertainty_percent set the accuracy floor at the Omega boundary. See the forward_model field for the closed-form equation.

Existence of the recovered cosmological_parameter_vector is guaranteed within the declared Omega bounds. Uniqueness holds on the measurement-supported subspace; out-of-support modes are controlled by declared priors. Stability is conditionally stable (kappa_eff ~= 200); foreground_contamination dominates the stability cliff; the remaining mismatch parameters contribute higher-order bias terms. Thermal gaussian sets the irreducible data-fidelity floor.
