Authored summary

Exact integer elimination certifies \(H_n\ne0\) for \(1\le n\le110\), and a self-reported audit modulo \(100000007\) finds nonzero residues through \(n=4999\); integer nonvanishing for every \(n\ge5000\) remains open.

The record cites sources for its explanation.

2Authored explanation

An apwenian binary sequence has every normalized Hankel determinant odd. Guo and Han's Example 11 classifies Baum-Sweet as non-apwenian. This agrees with \(H_3=-2\), but it leaves integer nonvanishing open. The classical function-field continued fraction also concerns a different object. Neither result resolves the candidate's claim.
