Abstract
Resistive memories store information in a crossbar arrangement of two-terminal devices that can be programmed to patterns of high or low resistance. While extremely compact, this technology suffers from the "sneak-path" problem: certain information patterns cannot be recovered, as multiple low resistances in parallel make a high resistance indistinguishable from a low resistance. In this paper, a multi-layer device is considered, and the number of bits it can store is derived exactly and asymptotic bounds are developed. The information density of a series of isolated arrays with extreme aspect ratios is derived in the single- and multi-layer cases with and without peripheral selection circuitry. This density is shown to be non-zero in the limit, unlike that of the arrays with moderate aspect ratios previously considered. A simple encoding scheme that achieves capacity asymptotically is presented.

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
