6. Verification and Certificates
This gives a precise verification question:
\forall x\in B,\qquad P(\operatorname{denote}(g,\theta,x)).
This part develops several ways to answer it: interval and affine bounds, compiler-correctness proofs, autograd theorems, numerical error bounds, optimizer laws, and replayed certificates. We will also feed bad artifacts to the checkers and see exactly where they fail.
