Authored summary

For a positive answer, prove that every finite-order element of every \(\operatorname{GL}_n(\mathbb Z)\) has an integrally conjugate ternary representative. For a negative answer, give a finite-order integral matrix in the least possible dimension and prove that no integral conjugate is ternary; also certify all smaller dimensions.

This inventory recognizes embedded source fields. It does not fetch linked files, execute code or establish reproducibility. Complete artifacts and replay controls remain below.

The outcome reports what was recorded. Its scope and evidence grade remain separate. Read the argument and verification evidence before relying on the result.

2Authored explanation

Work against the displayed statement and preserve every hypothesis and quantifier. For a positive answer, prove that every finite-order element of every \(\operatorname{GL}_n(\mathbb Z)\) has an integrally conjugate ternary representative. For a negative answer, give a finite-order integral matrix in the least possible dimension and prove that no integral conjugate is ternary; also certify all smaller dimensions. Any computation must retain a replayable witness and a matching exclusion or completeness certificate.
