The main conclusions are:

```text
mu(mn) under the outer absolute value
  becomes one-sided Möbius cancellation in n

the inner parity coefficient
  carries an explicit inverse-zeta Dirichlet-series factor

coefficient-only fixed-power cancellation
  is zero-sensitive and may import zero-strip strength

generic Cauchy closure
  makes EMBF downstream of prime-error energy

a genuinely new route remains:
  diagonal-scale second-moment quasi-orthogonality across multiplicative dilates
```

No live GLM-5.3-Flash run is claimed.

# 1. Canonical EMBF object

Let

$$
B(x)=\vartheta(x)-x.
$$

Let

$$
\gamma(n,C)=\sum_{\substack{d\mid n\\ d\le C}}\mu(d).
$$

For

$$
L<n\le2L,
\qquad
mn<2N,
$$

define

$$
\boxed{
\mathfrak B_{N,L,C}
=
\sum_m
\left|
\sum_{\substack{L<n\le2L\\ mn<2N}}
\gamma(n,C)\mu(mn)w_N(mn)B(mn-1)
\right|.
}
$$

---

# 2. Exact Möbius factorization

For all positive integers $m,n$,

$$
\boxed{
\mu(mn)=\mu(m)\mu(n)\mathbf1_{(m,n)=1}.
}
$$

Hence:

## Theorem 2.1 — One-Sided Parity Factorization

$$
\boxed{
\mathfrak B_{N,L,C}
=
\sum_{\substack{m\\ \mu(m)\neq0}}
\left|
\sum_{\substack{L<n\le2L\\ mn<2N\\ (n,m)=1}}
\gamma(n,C)\mu(n)w_N(mn)B(mn-1)
\right|.
}
$$

The sign of $\mu(m)$ disappears because of the outer absolute value. The parity source is therefore one-sided in the inner $n$ variable.

# 3. The parity coefficient

Define

$$
\boxed{a_C(n)=\mu(n)\gamma(n,C).}
$$

For $d\mid n$,

$$
\mu(n)\mu(d)
=
\mu^2(d)\mu(n/d)\mathbf1_{(d,n/d)=1}.
$$

Therefore:

## Lemma 3.1

$$
\boxed{
a_C(n)
=
\sum_{\substack{dr=n\\ d\le C\\ (d,r)=1}}
\mu^2(d)\mu(r).
}
$$

---

# 4. Dirichlet series of the parity coefficient

For $\Re s>1$,

$$
A_C(s)=\sum_{n\ge1}\frac{a_C(n)}{n^s}.
$$

Then

$$
\boxed{
A_C(s)=\frac{P_C(s)}{\zeta(s)},
}
$$

where

$$
\boxed{
P_C(s)
=
\sum_{d\le C}
\frac{\mu^2(d)}{d^s}
\prod_{p\mid d}(1-p^{-s})^{-1}.
}
$$

For $C=1$,

$$
P_1(s)=1,
\qquad
A_1(s)=\frac1{\zeta(s)}.
$$

Thus the parity coefficient has an explicit inverse-zeta backbone.

---

# 5. Coprime-restricted coefficient

For squarefree $m$, define

$$
a_{C,m}(n)=a_C(n)\mathbf1_{(n,m)=1}.
$$

For $\Re s>1$,

$$
\boxed{
\sum_{n\ge1}\frac{a_{C,m}(n)}{n^s}
=
\frac{P_{C,m}(s)}{\zeta(s)},
}
$$

with

$$
\boxed{
P_{C,m}(s)
=
\sum_{\substack{d\le C\\ (d,m)=1}}
\frac{\mu^2(d)}{d^s}
\prod_{p\mid dm}(1-p^{-s})^{-1}.
}
$$

The finite Euler modifier changes. The inverse-zeta factor remains.

---

# 6. Coefficient partial sums and zero strength

Let

$$
A_C(x)=\sum_{n\le x}a_C(n).
$$

Suppose for fixed $C$ and fixed $\theta<1$, for every $\varepsilon>0$,

$$
A_C(x)=O_\varepsilon(x^{\theta+\varepsilon}).
$$

Then the Dirichlet series is holomorphic in $\Re s>\theta$. Hence every zeta zero $\rho$ in this half-plane must satisfy

$$
\boxed{P_C(\rho)=0.}
$$

For $C=1$, this becomes

$$
\boxed{\zeta(s)\neq0\qquad\Re s>\theta.}
$$

```text

```

This is a strength warning for coefficient-only proof routes; it is not an equivalence theorem for EMBF itself.

# 7. Inner one-variable transform

Define

$$
F_m(n)=w_N(mn)B(mn-1),
$$

and

$$
S_m
=
\sum_{\substack{L<n\le2L\\mn<2N}}
a_{C,m}(n)F_m(n).
$$

Then

$$
\boxed{\mathfrak B_{N,L,C}=\sum_{\mu(m)\neq0}|S_m|.}
$$

---

# 8. Variation of the endogenous dilate profile

Assume $mL\ll N$. Chebyshev gives $B(x)=O(x)$ and $w_N\le N$.

As $n$ runs over $[L,2L]$, the intervals $[mn,m(n+1))$ are disjoint. Using

$$
|B(y)-B(x)|\le \vartheta(y)-\vartheta(x)+(y-x)
$$

and Chebyshev, the total variation of $B(mn-1)$ is $O(N)$. The total variation of $w_N(mn)$ is also $O(N)$.

Hence:

## Lemma 8.1

$$
\boxed{\operatorname{Var}_{L<n\le2L}F_m(n)=O(N^2).}
$$

Endpoint sizes are also $O(N^2)$.

---

# 9. Coefficient-only Abel route

Let

$$
M_{C,m}(t;L)
=
\sum_{\substack{L<n\le t\\ (n,m)=1}}a_C(n).
$$

Discrete partial summation gives:

## Proposition 9.1

$$
\boxed{
|S_m|
\ll
N^2
\max_{L<t\le2L}|M_{C,m}(t;L)|.
}
$$

Consequently, if uniformly in relevant $m$,

$$
\max_{L<t\le2L}|M_{C,m}(t;L)|
\ll
L^{1-\delta+o(1)},
$$

then

$$
\boxed{
\mathfrak B_{N,L,C}
\ll
N^3L^{-\delta+o(1)}.
}
$$

If $L=N^\alpha$,

$$
\boxed{\mathfrak B_{N,L,C}\ll N^{3-\alpha\delta+o(1)}.}
$$

At $\alpha=1/2$, the gain is $\delta/2$.

A uniform coefficient theorem strong enough to include $C=1,m=1$ is a fixed-power Mertens theorem and hence fixed-zero-strip strength.

---

# 10. Generic second-moment closure

Define

$$
\boxed{
\mathcal Q_{N,L,C}
=
\sum_{\mu(m)\neq0}|S_m|^2.
}
$$

Let $M\asymp N/L$ be the number of outer $m$ values. Then

$$
\boxed{
\mathfrak B_{N,L,C}
\le
M^{1/2}\mathcal Q_{N,L,C}^{1/2}.
}
$$

Since $|a_{C,m}(n)|\le\tau(n)=N^{o(1)}$, Cauchy in $n$, divisor multiplicity, and $w_N^2\le N^2$ yield:

## Theorem 10.1 — Generic Energy Fallback

Let

$$
\mathcal E_B(2N)=\sum_{k<2N}|B(k-1)|^2.
$$

Then

$$
\boxed{
\mathfrak B_{N,L,C}
\ll
N^{3/2+o(1)}\mathcal E_B(2N)^{1/2}.
}
$$

If PODEE $(\kappa)$ holds uniformly on dyadic scales up to $N$, then

$$
\boxed{
\mathfrak B_{N,L,C}
\ll
N^{3-\kappa/2+o(1)}.
}
$$

Thus generic second-moment closure is downstream of the target energy.

# 11. Second-moment expansion

Expand

$$
\mathcal Q_{N,L,C}
=
\sum_m\sum_{n_1,n_2}
a_{C,m}(n_1)a_{C,m}(n_2)
F_m(n_1)F_m(n_2).
$$

The diagonal part $n_1=n_2$ has scale

$$
\boxed{\mathcal Q_{\rm diag}\ll N^{5+o(1)}.}
$$

The completely uncontrolled full second moment may be as large as $N^{11/2+o(1)}$ in a balanced window. Therefore proving diagonal-scale behavior is a genuine fixed-power gain.

---

# 12. Endogenous Möbius-Dilate Quasi-Orthogonality

Assume the balanced window

$$
\boxed{L=N^{1/2+o(1)}.}
$$

Define the target:

## EMDQO

$$
\boxed{\mathcal Q_{N,L,C}\ll N^{5+o(1)}.}
$$

Then $M=N^{1/2+o(1)}$, so

$$
\begin{aligned}
\mathfrak B_{N,L,C}
&\le M^{1/2}\mathcal Q_{N,L,C}^{1/2}\\
&\ll N^{1/4+o(1)}N^{5/2+o(1)}\\
&=N^{11/4+o(1)}.
\end{aligned}
$$

Hence:

## Theorem 12.1 — Diagonal Scale Gives a Fixed Power

$$
\boxed{
\operatorname{EMDQO}
\Longrightarrow
\mathfrak B_{N,L,C}
\ll
N^{3-1/4+o(1)}.
}
$$

No fixed-power Mertens estimate appears in the statement.

---

# 13. General window law

If $L=N^{\alpha+o(1)}$ and the same diagonal-scale estimate $\mathcal Q\ll N^{5+o(1)}$ holds, then

$$
\boxed{
\mathfrak B_{N,L,C}
\ll
N^{3-\alpha/2+o(1)}.
}
$$

Thus the generated fixed power is

$$
\boxed{\kappa=\alpha/2.}
$$

---

# 14. What EMDQO asks

The off-diagonal piece is

$$
\sum_m\sum_{n_1\neq n_2}
a_{C,m}(n_1)a_{C,m}(n_2)
w_N(mn_1)w_N(mn_2)
B(mn_1-1)B(mn_2-1).
$$

EMDQO therefore asks whether distinct multiplicative dilates of the prime-error profile are quasi-orthogonal on average over $m$ after parity weighting.

This is not ordinary Möbius randomness against an external bounded test function. The profile is generated by the same prime sequence.

---

# 15. Known Möbius uniformity calibration

Davenport-type Möbius exponential-sum estimates give savings stronger than every fixed power of $\log N$ against additive phases.

Modern Gowers-uniformity and ergodic results likewise provide strong logarithmic decay for Möbius against structured external systems.

These are substantial results, but they do not supply a fixed $N$ -power for the endogenous multiplicative profile $B(mn-1)$.

Recent 2026 work on multiple Möbius sums obtains nontrivial bounds in several multivariable settings while emphasizing that binary analogues remain substantially harder in that setting.

No cited result proves EMDQO.

The next campaign is:

```

Write

$$
\mathcal Q
=
\mathcal Q_{\rm diag}

\mathcal Q_{\rm off}.
$$

The diagonal already satisfies

$$
\mathcal Q_{\rm diag}\ll N^{5+o(1)}.
$$

Therefore the next task is to determine whether one can prove

$$
\boxed{\mathcal Q_{\rm off}\ll N^{5+o(1)}}
$$

in signed total, or another estimate sufficient for the full second moment.

The new concrete target is

\boxed{

$$

At the current closure state, this is the first parity-sensitive second-moment theorem which could produce a fixed power without simply assuming a fixed-power Mertens estimate or using PESC itself as input.
