Structural identities for the Section 2 construction flow.
In two dimensions, a left inverse of a determinant-one map is its
cofactor transpose. The four coordinate equalities are the form used in
c.material.DX.Xinv.
The spatial derivative trace used in Liouville's formula is the classical divergence of a smooth spatial slice.
The velocity from any admissible stream function is classically divergence-free.
The inverse-flow spatial derivative also has determinant one.
The forward and inverse variational maps at a fixed pair of times are compositional inverses.
The c.material.DX.Xinv cofactor identity: in two dimensions the
composed forward Jacobian is the cofactor transpose of the inverse Jacobian.
This identity is pointwise; quantitative derivative bounds are separate.
