russell@unturf.com ecf0c89de2 www + whitepaper: adopt custom λ mark from MPS, green, 3× wordmark size
Fetched the lumbda-logos artwork from
media.unturf.com/c/fbd3d473-.../lumbda-logos (a MakePostSell product),
applied both flips (vertical + horizontal, = 180°) at bake time so the
PNG ships oriented correctly without any CSS transform dance, and
recolored non-background pixels to brand green (#227842) with alpha
derived from pixel brightness so anti-aliased edges stay smooth.

Two PNG variants ship under whitepaper/diagrams/:
  * lumbda-logo.png        dark ink for print contexts
  * lumbda-logo-green.png  #227842 for web

www/ carries symlinks to both.

Homepage (www/index.html): replaces the CSS-rendered λ with an
<img class="lambda-mark"> element sized 9.6rem — 3× the 3.2rem
wordmark font — stacked below "lumbda." on its own line.

Whitepaper (whitepaper/lumbda-whitepaper.rst): adds the logo as the
first figure above the permacomputer-logo, 24% width, centered.
Regenerated PDF + HTML; embed-images.py base64-inlines the new file
automatically so the HTML stays single-file.

CI (.gitlab-ci.yml): generalizes the symlink resolver from two
explicit `cp -L` calls into a `find www -type l` loop, so every
current and future symlinked asset deploys without per-file CI edits.

Lumbda names a Lisp/Scheme-derived language carrying four independently implemented execution backends — one surface syntax, one test suite. A Python tree-walker with an optional bytecode VM, a C implementation that adds an x86_64 JIT, and a pure x86_64 GNU asm interpreter (~6,600 lines, ~23 KB stripped, zero external dependencies). Every backend runs a shared <code>.lsp</code> source byte-identically, with full first-class continuations, exact rationals, records, and hygienic macros.

<h2>Portal: feedback across time</h2>
<p>A continuation carries feedback within a process. A portal carries feedback across processes. Same primitive, different scope: capture machine state, serialize, reload elsewhere, resume. Lumbda ships three portal formats with distinct trade-offs:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>S-expression portal</strong> &mdash; Scheme source as a wire protocol. 16 of 16 producer&times;consumer cells green across Python, C, asm no-GC, and asm GC.</li>
<li><strong>JSON portal</strong> &mdash; graph-aware, preserves closures and live continuations (Python, C).</li>
<li><strong>Binary heap dump</strong> &mdash; asm only. 1.5 ms save+resume between two processes.</li>
</ul>
</section>
<section id="proof">
<h2>EML universality proof</h2>
<p>A single operator <code>eml(x, y) = exp(x) &minus; ln(y)</code> with a constant 1 generates all elementary functions: <code>exp</code>, <code>ln</code>, arithmetic, negation, complex-plane access, trigonometry. Verified numerically in Python, verified in Lumbda's own bytecode, proven formally in Lean 4 with zero <code>sorry</code>. Lumbda's native symbolic-rewrite checker runs five theorems in 46 ms cold or 7 ms cached &mdash; roughly 16&times; faster than Lean's cold rebuild on identical hardware.</p>
