test(quandle): KT-2 ext exact-value fixtures (Alexander + Conway) - #41
Merged
Conversation
§17 adds exact-string fixtures for polynomial values whose
mathematical form is standard and whose serialised form is
upstream-confirmed:
* Trefoil Alexander = `-1:1,0:-1,1:1` (Δ(t) = t⁻¹ - 1 + t).
Confirmed by Skein.jl/ext/KnotTheoryExt.jl test fixture.
* Trefoil Conway = `0:1,2:1` (∇(z) = 1 + z²).
Confirmed by KnotTheory.jl/test/runtests.jl ~line 278.
* Figure-eight Conway = `0:1,2:-1` (∇(z) = 1 - z²).
* Cinquefoil Conway = `0:1,2:3,4:1` (∇(z) = 1 + 3z² + z⁴).
Jones and HOMFLY exact values are deliberately NOT pinned. The
audit Agent could not verify them against KnotTheory.jl test
fixtures (no exact-value assertions exist upstream), and sign-
convention ambiguity (right-handed vs left-handed trefoil) makes
guessing brittle. They stay covered by §12 "populated +
distinguishes" until upstream fixtures are added.
The fixtures will fail loudly on any future format change. That's
intentional — any format change must be a deliberate Skein.jl
compatibility break, not an accident.
Partially closes #32 (KT-2 extension exact-fixture suite).

Adds §17 exact-string fixtures for trefoil Alexander (
-1:1,0:-1,1:1, Skein.jl confirmed) and Conway for trefoil/figure-eight/cinquefoil (0:1,2:1/0:1,2:-1/0:1,2:3,4:1, KnotTheory.jl runtests.jl confirmed). Jones and HOMFLY deliberately deferred to upstream-fixture follow-up.Partial-closes #32. Auto-merge armed.
