+title: "Absolute Zero"
+abstract: "Multi-prover formal verification of Certified Null Operations (CNO: programs provably computing nothing) and Observational Null Disclosure (OND: programs provably revealing nothing). Two co-equal, logically independent pillars mechanised in several provers, including Coq, Lean 4 and Agda, with axiom counts and out-of-scope residue lists honestly surfaced."
