mrwulf 8ce599c4aa group-law layer: complete twisted Edwards addition law proven
Extraction widened to backend::serial::curve_models + edwards (own gen/,
209 defs). Adapted the reference Ed* proof suite: namespace rename +
Curve25519TraitsIdentity -> Curve25519_dalekTraitsIdentity. New opaque
externals (scalar_mul backends, get_selected_backend, decompress, sum,
from_slice) are axioms outside both certificate cones — verified by the
Phase-3 audit. All 21 proofs compile; field certificates unchanged.

Not claimed (matching the reference solution's honest scope): edAdd
associativity, scalar multiplication, decompress/compress, AVX2 backend.

dalek-ed25519-verified

Formal verification of the ed25519 implementation in dalek-cryptography/curve25519-dalek (upstream, v5.0.0-rc.1), built as a coherent proof pyramid in Lean 4 via the Charon/Aeneas transpilation pipeline:

        ┌──────────────────────────────┐
        │  Signature (EdDSA verify)    │   accepted ⇒ [8][S]B = [8]R + [8][k]A
        ├──────────────────────────────┤
        │  Scalar arithmetic mod      │   Scalar52 ops correct mod 
        ├──────────────────────────────┤
        │  Group law (twisted Edwards) │   point ops = complete addition law
        ├──────────────────────────────┤
        │  Field 𝔽_p, p = 2²⁵⁵  19    │   FieldElement51 ops correct mod p
        └──────────────────────────────┘

Every layer states its theorems about the actual Aeneas-transpiled Rust code (never about a hand-written re-model), and every claim in the status table below is backed by a compiled proof plus an axiom audit of the named certificate. Files that do not compile under verification/check.sh are not in this repository.

Reproducing

cd verification
./extract.sh    # Rust → LLBC → Lean (regenerates gen/)
./check.sh      # compiles EVERY shipped file + axiom-audits EVERY certificate
