Tied Trit-Planes: Constraining PTQTP to a Uniform Nine-Level Quantizer, with a Persistent Folded Format for Disk-Streamed Mixture-of-Experts Serving

This work is the first to impose that identity as a constraint inside PTQTP's solver, a known balanced-ternary identity, and applies it to the routed experts of DeepSeek-V4-Flash-0731, a 284B-A13B mixture-of-experts model, quantizing in one shot from the released MXFP4 expert weights and streaming experts from SSD on a...
