This Lean 4 formalization proves that, for every integer n at least two, the direct product of the free group of rank n with the infinite cyclic group has a positive cone generated by finitely many elements as a semigroup if and only if n is even. It formalizes Theorem 1.1 and Corollary 1.2 of Hang Lu Su's arXiv:2608.31103v1. The even-rank construction passes a positive cone through two finite-index subgroups. The converse derives the parity obstruction from finite circle domains and their endpoint actions. The required base-cone theorem and the supporting algebraic and dynamical arguments…
