Differentiate the three displayed coordinate polynomials symbolically, factor the determinant, then evaluate the map at the three announced rational points using exact arithmetic.

Verified

Independent reproduction returned determinant -2 and the same image (-1/4, 0, 0) for all three distinct inputs.

Strategy and discriminator

Legacy attempt

Differentiate the three displayed coordinate polynomials symbolically, factor the determinant, then evaluate the map at the three announced rational points using exact arithmetic.

Hypothesis: Not recorded.

Test: Not recorded.

Rationale

This checks the two decisive facts directly and makes no appeal to model judgment.

Claims requiring scrutiny
  • The displayed map has constant Jacobian determinant -2.
  • The three displayed rational inputs are distinct and map to (-1/4, 0, 0).
Evidence and scope
  • SymPy exact symbolic determinant
  • Exact Rational substitutions
