(A), step 1: the near-face elimination for a face-odd harmonic function #
|⨍_K w| ≤ C(d) · ‖w − (w)_K‖_{L²(K)}
for w Δ-harmonic on the boundary-flush cube K and vanishing on the face
K shares with the frontier. This module carries its pointwise half.
The mechanism ('s, at a general face level) #
Write ρ for the reflection in the face hyperplane {yᵢ = a} and let
G = W − β where W is odd about the face — so that G satisfies the
reflection identity G ∘ ρ + G = −2β, an identity carrying no information by
itself. Harmonicity enters through a second-order Taylor comparison along
the normal, applied twice:
- to the pair
(y, ρ y), whose displacement is2s·eᵢwiths = a − yᵢ; - to the pair
(y, y − w·eᵢ), whose displacement is−w·eᵢ.
The first, combined with the reflection identity, gives
|β + G y + s·γ| ≤ 2 M w² where γ is the (unknown) normal derivative of G
at y; the second gives |G(y − w·eᵢ) − G y + w·γ| ≤ M w² and therefore pins
γ down to O(M w). Eliminating γ — legitimate because t = s/w ∈ (0,1],
which is exactly why the comparison point is taken at the fixed signed depth
w rather than at a depth proportional to s — leaves
|β| ≤ 2 |G y| + |G (y − w·eᵢ)| + 3 M w² .
- the "even part" is a constant
β(the mean), not the even part of an affine competitor, so the reflection identity is taken as a hypothesis at the single pointyrather than derived from a global affine splitting; - the depth
wis signed, so the same statement serves an upper face (w > 0) and a lower face (w < 0) with no case split — only the ratiot = s/w ∈ (0,1]is constrained; - the Taylor set
Tis an arbitrary convex set, not thex-window'staylorLo/taylorHibox, so the estimate is available at the flush cube ofMeanControlWindowCube, whose centre iszand whose face may be either.

The near-face elimination, at a general face level and a signed depth.
Let G be classically harmonic on a convex set T with Hessian bounded by M
there, and let y ∈ T satisfy the reflection identity
G (ρ y) + G y = −2β for the reflection ρ in {yᵢ = a}. If both the
reflected point ρ y and the pushed point y − w·eᵢ lie in T, and the signed
depth ratio (a − yᵢ)/w lies in (0, 1], then the constant β is priced
pointwise by the two values of G and a quadratic Hessian remainder:
|β| ≤ 2 |G y| + |G (y − w·eᵢ)| + 3 M w² .
No continuity of G at the face and no membership hypothesis beyond the three
listed points is used.
