Ring Valley Regime Map

This valley-study report analyzes a non-lazy K-neighbor ring with a one-way shortcut 6->N/2+1 under the Fig.3 peak rule. Exact AW inversion and MC validation map bimodality windows across even N and K: no bimodality for K=2 after parity-aware coarse graining, but clear windows for K=4,6,8.

Updated: 9 Jun 2026, 21:57:42 UTC

Model

The graph is a directed-shortcut ring with uniform K-neighbor transitions and an absorbing target at N/2, using paper-consistent indexing and shortcut placement.

Method

The workflow combines AW inversion, MC trajectory simulation, and Fig.3 peak-valley criteria with K=2 parity coarse graining.

Result

Across scanned even N, K=2 remains unimodal under the study rule, while K=4/6/8 exhibit structured bimodality bands that are reproducible in both exact and MC diagnostics.

Book Position

This report is part of the chapterized mainline. Use chapter links to keep continuity instead of reading reports in isolation.
