/* * PIST Extended Encoding — Minimal Self-Contained Decoder for Hutter Prize * * Compiles to a single binary that, when run, outputs enwik9 (1,000,000,000 bytes). * The compressed data is embedded at the end of this executable. * * Build: gcc -O3 -o archive.exe hutter_pist_decoder.c -lm * Run: ./archive.exe > enwik9 * * Size budget: * Current record L = 110,793,128 bytes * Target S = S1 + S2 < L (where S2 = sizeof(archive.exe)) * 1% improvement = S < 109,685,207 bytes * * Architecture: * - O(1) coordinate computation per byte position (no search) * - 8-opcode register machine with manifold addressing * - Bootstrap basis embedded in binary header * - Program stream embedded after code section * * Mathematical foundation — Frozen-In Coordinate Invariance * (Asenjo, Comisso & Winkler, PRL 2026, DOI: 10.1103/6c4q-kx6f) * * The decoder relies on the same principle as frozen-in gravitational fields: * under an ideal "Ohm-type" condition, field structures remain preserved * as the system evolves. Here, the "field" is the composite address structure, * and "evolution" is the sequential decode operation. * * Eq 1 (PIST shell decomposition): n = k^2 + t * Eq 2 (Mass function): m(k,t) = t(2k+1-t) [t < 2k+1-t] * Eq 3 (Mirror): mirror(n) = k^2 + (2k+1-t) * Eq 4 (Tree address): path_i(n) = floor(n / 20^i) mod 20 * Eq 5 (Surface coords): x = 1 + (n mod 255), y = 1/x * Eq 6 (Torus angles): theta = n*Phi mod 2pi * phi = n*Phi^2 mod 2pi * psi = n*Phi^3 mod 2pi * Eq 7 (Frozen-in prediction): p(n) = basis[n%B] XOR keystream(n) * XOR (n mod 256) * XOR mirror(n) * Eq 8 (Decode): output = p(n) XOR residual(n) * * The composite address is a topological invariant: it depends only on n, * not on data. Like gravitational helicity H_g = integral(A_g . B_g dV), * the coordinate structure is conserved under encode/decode dynamics. */ #include #include #include #include #include /* ─── Constants ─── */ #define ENWIK9_SIZE 1000000000ULL #define PHI 1.618033988749895 #define TWO_PI 6.283185307179586 #define TREE_DEPTH 3 #define TREE_BRANCHES 20 #define BASIS_SIZE 16 #define STACK_SIZE 256 #define BOOTSTRAP_SIZE 16 /* ─── PIST Coordinate Primitives ─── */ static inline uint32_t isqrt(uint32_t n) { uint32_t x = n, y = (x + 1) >> 1; while (y < x) { x = y; y = (x + n / x) >> 1; } return x; } static inline void pist_encode(uint32_t n, uint32_t *k, uint32_t *t) { *k = isqrt(n); *t = n - (*k) * (*k); } static inline uint32_t pist_mass(uint32_t k, uint32_t t) { if (k == 0) return 0; uint32_t m = 2 * k + 1 - t; uint32_t tf = t < m ?
