Abstract
Branched copolymers with a dendritic structure were synthesized by grafting poly(2-vinylpyridine) (P2VP) side chains onto linear and arborescent polystyrene substrates of generations G0−G2 randomly functionalized with acetyl groups. The P2VP side chains were generated in tetrahydrofuran using 1,1-diphenyl-3-methylpentyllithium as the initiator. The living polymer was then titrated with a solution of acetylated substrate to yield the copolymer. The grafting yield reached 92−96% in the 0−25 °C range with LiCl as a reactivity modifier for the P2VP anions. Arborescent copolymers with M w ≈ 5000 or 30 000 P2VP side chains were synthesized. The copolymers with short side chains contain 82−92 mol % P2VP units. For the long side chain systems, the P2VP content reaches over 97 mol %. These materials are characterized by a very compact structure, a narrow molecular weight distribution ( M w / M n = 1.06−1.08), and a roughly geometric increase in branching functionality and molecular weight for successive generations. The copolymers derived from the linear polystyrene substrate aggregate when dissolved in aqueous HCl solutions. In contrast, copolymers based on G0−G2 substrates give unimolecular micellar solutions under the same conditions.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
