Projective Boundary Certificates for Neural Selective Prediction

Construct a neural acceptance or abstention set from calibration samples together with an explicit boundary map selecting the samples that determine the set. If the map is proper projective and its cross-sample complexity profile is stable, the conditional violation risk has an exact beta law indexed by boundary size rather than network parameter count. This provides a falsifiable, distribution-free certificate for neural selective classifiers and learned safety filters.
