Complete rational classification of fifth-order autocorrelation ambiguities on U30U_{30}

Agulnick and Busick-Warner exhibited a family of fifth-order ambiguities on the exact unit support U30U_{30} and conjectured that it was not a complete classification because it did not use the full field Q(ζ30)\mathbb Q(\zeta_{30}). This work proves the complete classification. The larger field enlarges the common amplitude α\alpha, while every relative ambiguity remains a norm-one parameter in Q(ζ6)\mathbb Q(\zeta_6). The result is a specialization of a theorem for every exact unit support U6mU_{6m}. The entry does not claim a complete parametrization for arbitrary supports: on the 255 automorphism-stable supports treated elsewhere in the paper, the broader result is a closing-degree classification. It does not treat noisy data or noncyclic groups, and it makes no novelty, priority, or firstness claim.
