The entry contrast against the Euclidean imbalance #
The last display of the proof of t.polynomial.entry converts
the imbalance of the Euclidean annealed block at the entry generation into the
annealed contrast there,
Ξ_m - 1 β€ 3(π‘(F_m) - 1),
with Ξ_m the intrinsic annealed contrast of e.Theta.m and
π‘ the canonical imbalance of e.scale.selection.canonical.metric, both read
on F_m = π_bar(β‘_m).
Two things are proved.
Definedness. The printed argument obtains the finiteness and positive
definiteness of F_m from the Euclidean mean comparison
e.initial.source.bounds, which is available at generations at or
above the source burn. Both are in fact consequences of
e.coarse.ellipticity alone, at every generation: the coarse response of a
centered cube is integrable and its expectation is positive definite, and
the annealed primal-adjoint order then puts the block above its own sharp. The
generation hypothesis is carried below for the shape of the entry argument and
is not needed.
The comparison. The bridge itself is Ξ β€ π‘ on any symmetric positive
doubled block β one factor of three stronger than the printed display, which is
recovered from it because π‘ β₯ 1.
The printed route to the display passes through the uncorrected Schur ratio
Ξ_tilde = |Ο_*^{-1/2} Ο Ο_*^{-1/2}|, in two steps: a factor-three comparison
Ξ - 1 β€ 3(Ξ_tilde - 1), and then Ξ_tilde - 1 β€ π‘ - 1 read off the sharp ordering. The
second step's source, the lower block inequality of [ArmstrongβKuusi, Lemma 2.6, (2.82)], is false
as printed: at Schur data Ο_* = 1, Ο = 9, k = 4 in
one dimension the printed bounds are exceeded, both being linear in Ξ_tilde - 1
where the extremal configurations grow quadratically. Neither step is used
here.
The route taken instead is the intrinsic minimum itself. Ξ minimizes the
normalized skew-corrected Schur form over the skew matrices, so any skew
matrix bounds it; the choice h = Β½(k - kα΅) leaves the symmetric coordinate
r = Β½(k + kα΅) and the corrected form B = Ο + rα΅Ο_*β»ΒΉr, and the fourfold
Schur bound of e.response.canonical.imbalance β the imbalance ordering
F β€ π‘ F^β― read at the vector whose second Schur coordinate vanishes β gives
Ο + 4rα΅Ο_*β»ΒΉr β€ π‘ Ο_*, hence B β€ π‘ Ο_*. So π‘ is admissible for the
infimum defining Ξ, which is exactly Ξ β€ π‘. The uncorrected ratio never
appears.
There are no definitions in this file.
The bridge #
The intrinsic contrast is below the canonical imbalance, Ξ β€ π‘, on
every symmetric positive definite doubled block.
The skew matrix h = Β½(k - kα΅) corrects the Schur skew coordinate to its
symmetric part r = Β½(k + kα΅), and the imbalance ordering F β€ π‘ F^β― of
e.scale.selection.canonical.metric, read on the doubled coordinate whose second
Schur component vanishes, bounds Ο + rα΅Ο_*β»ΒΉr by π‘ Ο_*. That is an
admissible Loewner scaling for the infimum defining the intrinsic contrast, so
the infimum is at most π‘.
The Euclidean block at a generation of the entry argument #
The Euclidean annealed block dominates its own sharp under
e.coarse.ellipticity. Integrability of the coarse response of a centered
cube and positivity of its expectation are consequences of the assumption at
every generation, and the annealed primal-adjoint order applies on the cube.
The Euclidean imbalance is at least one under
e.coarse.ellipticity: the determinant clause for the canonical metric on a
block above its own sharp.
The entry conversion #
The entry contrast conversion of t.polynomial.entry:
at every generation the annealed contrast of the centered cube is converted into
the imbalance of the Euclidean annealed block there,
Ξ_m - 1 β€ 3(π‘(F_m) - 1).
The comparison Ξ_m β€ π‘(F_m) is one factor of three stronger; the printed
display follows because the imbalance is at least one. The source-burn
hypothesis, which the printed definedness step consumes, is not needed: the
definedness of F_m is available from e.coarse.ellipticity at every
generation.
