Executable IEEE-754 binary32 (IEEE32Exec)

TorchLean uses two complementary ways to talk about "float32":

• NN/Floats/NeuralFloat/* and NN/Floats/FP32/* model rounding-on-ℝ. This is suited to proofs and for compositional "real computation + rounding error" arguments.
• IEEE32Exec (in this file) models bit-level IEEE-754 behavior. This is what you want when you care about corner cases like NaN/Inf payload propagation, signed zero, and exact tie-breaking.

We implement IEEE32Exec as raw UInt32 bits and provide:

• decoders/encoders for the binary32 layout,
• nextUp/nextDown (adjacent representable floats),
• basic arithmetic (+ - * / fma) by decoding to an exact dyadic/rational intermediate and then rounding once (round-to-nearest, ties-to-even),
• comparisons and min/max with IEEE-754 NaN rules,
• sqrt via integer arithmetic on the exact input value, rounded back to binary32.

TorchLean's tensor specifications provide their Context IEEE32Exec adapter separately. The executable kernel itself has no dependency on tensors, models, or runtime code.

About transcendentals

IEEE-754 does not specify implementations for transcendental functions (exp, tanh, ...). In practice those are provided by libm (or vendor math libraries) and vary across platforms.

The transcendental operations in this namespace use deterministic, pure Lean algorithms so examples do not delegate to the host math library. Their formulas, range reduction, and rounding path are fixed by the source. They are not claimed to be correctly rounded or to match a particular hardware or libm; each proved or tested accuracy statement remains an explicit contract.

Binary32 bit layout

IEEE-754 binary32 is stored as:

• sign bit s in bit 31,
• exponent field e in bits 30..23 (8 bits, bias 127),
• fraction field f in bits 22..0 (23 bits).

For NaNs, the "quiet" bit is the top fraction bit.

NaN selection / payload propagation

IEEE-754 leaves some freedom in how NaNs are "chosen" when multiple NaNs appear. For reproducibility (and nicer debugging), we make the choice deterministic (left-to-right) and we quiet signaling NaNs by setting the quiet bit.

@[inline]

def TorchLean.Floats.IEEE754.IEEE32Exec.quietNaN (x : IEEE32Exec) : IEEE32Exec

Quiet a NaN by setting the quiet bit (and leave non-NaNs unchanged).

@[inline]

def TorchLean.Floats.IEEE754.IEEE32Exec.chooseNaN1 (x : IEEE32Exec) : Option IEEE32Exec

If x is a NaN, return it (quieted).

@[inline]

def TorchLean.Floats.IEEE754.IEEE32Exec.chooseNaN2 (x y : IEEE32Exec) : Option IEEE32Exec

Choose a NaN from two operands.

This is the "NaN propagation" policy used by most binary ops in this file:

• if any operand is a signaling NaN, return that operand (quieted), left-to-right,
• otherwise if any operand is a quiet NaN, return that operand, left-to-right,
• otherwise return none.

@[inline]

def TorchLean.Floats.IEEE754.IEEE32Exec.chooseNaN3 (x y z : IEEE32Exec) : Option IEEE32Exec

@[inline]

def TorchLean.Floats.IEEE754.IEEE32Exec.nextUp (x : IEEE32Exec) : IEEE32Exec

nextUp x is the next representable float32 strictly greater than x.

IEEE-754 special cases:

• NaN propagates (quieted).
• nextUp (+∞) = +∞.
• nextUp (-0) = +minSubnormal (since +0 is not strictly greater than -0).

@[inline]

def TorchLean.Floats.IEEE754.IEEE32Exec.nextDown (x : IEEE32Exec) : IEEE32Exec

nextDown x is the next representable float32 strictly less than x.

IEEE-754 special cases:

• NaN propagates (quieted).
• nextDown (-∞) = -∞.
• nextDown (+0) = -minSubnormal (since -0 is not strictly less than +0).

@[inline]

def TorchLean.Floats.IEEE754.IEEE32Exec.neg (x : IEEE32Exec) : IEEE32Exec

Flip only the sign bit.

IEEE sign-bit operations do not quiet signaling NaNs: their exponent, payload, and quiet/signaling classification are preserved. Arithmetic operations quiet an sNaN when they consume it.

@[inline]

def TorchLean.Floats.IEEE754.IEEE32Exec.abs (x : IEEE32Exec) : IEEE32Exec

Clear only the sign bit, preserving every NaN payload bit and its quiet/signaling class.
