High-contrast homogenization: Provider.Quenched.SmallContrastMetricFactor #

The weak-norm metric factor of the small-contrast estimate #

The weak value of the small-contrast one-step estimate carries the metric factor

K_{M,F} = |M_0^{-1/2} F M_0^{-1/2}|^{1/2}, M_0 = diag(m_0, m_0^{-1}),

at F the recentered reference G_{h_0}^t (c ๐„) G_{h_0} and at F the recentered terminal adapted mean. This file bounds the first one by data of the reference alone โ€” the printed M_0 is built from the reference, so the factor must not grow with the generation.

The route is the canonical factorization M(๐„) = G_{-g(๐„)}^t M_0 G_{-g(๐„)} at m_0 = m(๐„) (e.scale.selection.canonical.metric) together with the two-sided bound ๐„ โ‰ค ๐”ก(๐„)^{1/2} M(๐„) between a positive block and its canonical metric: the two shears compose, so the whole factor is the imbalance times the distortion of the single shear h_0 - g(๐„), and that distortion is quadratic in the size ฯ„ of m^{-1/2}(h_0 - g(๐„))m^{-1/2}.

The g(๐„) half of the shear is removed once and for all by the recentering of SmallContrastCanonRecenter (canonicalShear_recentered_eq_zero), which is the normalization of Section 2.5 of HC; the remaining h_0 half is the response skew of the terminal mean, controlled in SmallContrastMetricFactorTau.

Two elementary quadratic-form facts #

Shears compose #

The shear distortion of the split metric #

The distortion of the split metric under a shear. If the shear h has m-normalized size at most ฯ„, the shear congruence of M_0 = diag(m,m^{-1}) is at most (2 + 2ฯ„ยฒ) M_0. This is the only place the shear enters the metric factor.

The metric factor at the reference #

The reference metric factor, squared. With the adapted-cube metric m_0 = m(๐„) โ€” the canonical metric of the reference โ€” the M_0-size of the recentered dilated reference is at most c ยท ฮบ_๐„^{1/2} ยท (2 + 2ฯ„ยฒ), where ฯ„ bounds the m_0-normalized size of the total shear h - g(๐„).

The generation never appears: the bound is reference data times the shear distortion.

The reference metric factor, squared. With the adapted-cube metric m_0 = m(๐„) the M_0-size of the recentered dilated reference is at most c ยท ฮบ_๐„^{1/2} ยท (2 + 2ฯ„ยฒ). The generation never appears.
