A parameterized monotone CLIQUE circuit lower bound #
This file combines the positive truncation scheme and the negative plucking scheme. Both evaluate the same bounded-width approximator on the shared DAG, so a small positive-error budget forces the final family to be nonempty while the negative density lemma forces that same family to make many errors.
The main result is an explicit, division-free dichotomy. It is useful both for exact finite parameter choices and for later asymptotic specialization.

If the positive local-error budget is smaller than the number of minimal positive clique graphs, the output approximator contains a term.
The accepted negative colorings of the circuit's output approximator are contained in the negative scheme's global failure set.
Razborov's bounded-width approximation dichotomy in explicit finite
form. Every monotone circuit computing k-CLIQUE must exhaust either the
positive truncation budget or the negative plucking budget.
Any size bound below both error thresholds is smaller than the circuit.
