Abstract
Finding zeros of the sum of two maximally monotone operators involving a continuous linear operator is a central problem in optimization and monotone operator theory. We revisit the duality framework proposed by Eckstein, Ferris, Pennanen, and Robinson from a quarter of a century ago. Paramonotonicity is identified as a broad condition ensuring that saddle points coincide with the closed convex rectangle formed by the primal and dual solutions. Additionally, we characterize total duality in the subdifferential setting and derive projection formulas for sets that arise in the analysis of the Chambolle-Pock algorithm within the recent framework developed by Bredies, Chenchene, Lorenz, and Naldi.

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
