The survival probability and the padded family, on a general carrier #
The one-step Laplace contraction rests on the Paley--Zygmund survival probability of the exit
time, and the chaining estimate consumes the resulting per-cell bounds as one padded family.
Both are stated here on an arbitrary carrier, the cube being read inside it by a map emb and
the cell by an open set carrying no other starting point. Neither argument uses anything about
the state space: the survival probability is the Paley--Zygmund inequality at the level one half,
and the reindexing contributes no starting point at a padded index.

1. The survival probability on a carrier #
Survival at half the guaranteed expected exit time, on a general carrier. This is the
Paley--Zygmund estimate, whose proof uses
no property of the state space: an upper bound Cup * T on the expected exit time from the open
set U, valid from every starting point, and a lower bound clow * T at the starting point x,
give clow ^ 2 / (1152 * Cup ^ 2) ≤ Q_x {clow * T / 2 ≤ tau_U}.
3. The padded family of the chaining estimate #
Reindex a scale-by-scale cube estimate on a carrier into the literal hone family of the
chaining estimate. The padded indices contribute no starting points.
