Shannon bounds for canonical MCSP #
The classical circuit-counting frontier is exposed directly through canonical
MCSP codes. At arity at least six, some truth table is rejected at threshold
2^n / (5n). At arity at least sixteen, every truth table is accepted at
threshold 18 * 2^n / n.
These are finite statements in the library's exact fan-in-two circuit model; they do not assert hardness of deciding MCSP.
At every arity at least six, some canonical truth table has minimum circuit size strictly above the Shannon lower threshold.
Equivalently, a Boolean function packaged by the canonical truth-table constructor is rejected at the Shannon lower threshold.
The exact finite Shannon window for canonical MCSP: at the lower threshold some truth table is rejected, while at the upper threshold every truth table is accepted. The two constants and the truth-table arity remain explicit.
