About this paper

Pavel Goldman-Kalaydin, Vyacheslav Shebanov

The authors propose a lifecycle for discoveries in adversarial settings, treating findings as time-bounded claims. A post-proposal e-process tests whether a candidate is current, and an e-detector monitors for its expiration. In one synthetic laundering-ring run, establishment followed 324 post-proposal transactions and an expiration alarm came 425 transactions after true expiration; this illustrates the framework, not general performance.
