The second is `mu_std`, the live branch. Leaving the disjunction in an axiom means the axiom still *admits* the dead branch. This module removes it, not by deleting a disjunct, but by stating the physical requirement that distinguishes them and proving the disjunction collapses under it. The discriminant is the rate at which `mu` approaches 1: 1 - mu_dual x = 1 / (1 + x) -- falls like 1/x 1 - mu_std x = 1 / (S (S + x)) ≤ 1 / x ^ 2 -- falls like 1/(2 x^2) A solar-system screening bound is an inverse-square tail condition. `mu_std` satisfies it; `mu_dual` cannot, for any constant. ## What this does and does not establish It does **not** derive `mu_std` from nothing. It shows that *given* the A4 disjunction, one added, independently motivated, falsifiable condition (`ScreenedTail`) selects `mu_std` and excludes `mu_dual`. The content is the exclusion: the dead branch is now ruled out inside the formal system rather than by a note in a markdown file. `ScreenedTail` is a postulate about the theory's solar-system behaviour, stated as such. Its physical warrant is the Cassini bound, which is empirical. -/ namespace ResNova.MuStdSelection open ResNova.MuStdUniqueness /-- The falsified branch, named so it can be excluded explicitly. -/ noncomputable def mu_dual (x : ℝ) : ℝ := x / (1 + x) /-- An inverse-square approach to the Newtonian limit: the formal content of a solar-system screening bound. -/ def ScreenedTail (mu : ℝ → ℝ) : Prop := ∃ C > 0, ∀ x ≥ (1 : ℝ), 1 - mu x ≤ C / x ^ 2 lemma sqrt_ge_self {x : ℝ} (hx : 0 ≤ x) : x ≤ Real.sqrt (1 + x ^ 2) := by have h : x ^ 2 ≤ 1 + x ^ 2 := by nlinarith calc x = Real.sqrt (x ^ 2) := by rw [Real.sqrt_sq hx] _ ≤ Real.sqrt (1 + x ^ 2) := Real.sqrt_le_sqrt h /-- `1 - mu_std x` rationalised: `(S - x)(S + x) = S² - x² = 1`. -/ lemma one_sub_mu_std {x : ℝ} (hx : 0 ≤ x) : 1 - mu_std x = 1 / (Real.sqrt (1 + x ^ 2) * (Real.sqrt (1 + x ^ 2) + x)) := by have hS : 0 < Real.sqrt (1 + x ^ 2) := sqrt_one_add_sq_pos x have hsum : 0 < Real.sqrt (1 + x ^ 2) + x := by linarith have hsq : Real.sqrt (1 + x ^ 2) ^ 2 = 1 + x ^ 2 := sq_sqrt_one_add_sq x have key : (1 - mu_std x) * (Real.sqrt (1 + x ^ 2) * (Real.sqrt (1 + x ^ 2) + x)) = 1 := by unfold mu_std field_simp nlinarith [hsq, hS, hsum] rw [eq_div_iff (by positivity)] exact key /-- **`mu_std` is screened.** Its tail falls like `1 / (2 x ^ 2)`, so `C = 1` works. -/ theorem mu_std_screened : ScreenedTail mu_std := by refine ⟨1, one_pos, fun x hx => ?_⟩ have hx0 : (0 : ℝ) < x := lt_of_lt_of_le zero_lt_one hx have hSx : x ≤ Real.sqrt (1 + x ^ 2) := sqrt_ge_self hx0.le have hS : 0 < Real.sqrt (1 + x ^ 2) := sqrt_one_add_sq_pos x have hx2 : (0 : ℝ) < x ^ 2 := by positivity have hprod : x ^ 2 ≤ Real.sqrt (1 + x ^ 2) * (Real.sqrt (1 + x ^ 2) + x) := by nlinarith [hSx, hS, hx0] rw [one_sub_mu_std hx0.le, one_div, one_div] simpa using inv_anti₀ hx2 hprod /-- **`mu_dual` is not screened.** `1 - mu_dual x = 1/(1+x)` falls only like `1/x`, so no constant `C` can bound it by `C / x ^ 2`. -/ theorem mu_dual_not_screened : ¬ ScreenedTail mu_dual := by rintro ⟨C, hC, h⟩ obtain ⟨n, hn⟩ := exists_nat_gt (max 1 (4 * C)) set x : ℝ := (n : ℝ) with hxdef have hx1 : (1 : ℝ) ≤ x := le_of_lt (lt_of_le_of_lt (le_max_left _ _) hn) have hx0 : (0 : ℝ) < x := lt_of_lt_of_le zero_lt_one hx1 have hxC : 4 * C < x := lt_of_le_of_lt (le_max_right _ _) hn have h1x : (0 : ℝ) < 1 + x := by linarith have hval : 1 - mu_dual x = 1 / (1 + x) := by unfold mu_dual; field_simp; ring have hle := h x hx1 rw [hval] at hle have hx2 : (0 : ℝ) < x ^ 2 := by positivity have step : (1 / (1 + x)) * ((1 + x) * x ^ 2) ≤ (C / x ^ 2) * ((1 + x) * x ^ 2) := mul_le_mul_of_nonneg_right hle (by positivity) have key : x ^ 2 ≤ C * (1 + x) := by field_simp at step; linarith nlinarith [key, hx0, hxC, hC, hx1] /-- **The tail is forced.** Under A4's disjunction plus the screening bound, `mu` must be `mu_std` for all sufficiently large `x`: the dead branch cannot survive anywhere past a computable threshold. -/ theorem screening_forces_std_eventually (mu : ℝ → ℝ) (hA4 : ∀ x > (0 : ℝ), mu x = mu_dual x ∨ mu x = mu_std x) (hscr : ScreenedTail mu) : ∃ X ≥ (1 : ℝ), ∀ x ≥ X, mu x = mu_std x := by obtain ⟨C, hC, hb⟩ := hscr obtain ⟨n, hn⟩ := exists_nat_gt (max 1 (4 * C)) refine ⟨(n : ℝ), le_of_lt (lt_of_le_of_lt (le_max_left _ _) hn), fun x hx => ?_⟩ have hx1 : (1 : ℝ) ≤ x := le_trans (le_of_lt (lt_of_le_of_lt (le_max_left _ _) hn)) hx have hx0 : (0 : ℝ) < x := lt_of_lt_of_le zero_lt_one hx1 have hxC : 4 * C < x := lt_of_lt_of_le (lt_of_le_of_lt (le_max_right _ _) hn) hx rcases hA4 x hx0 with hd | hs · exfalso have h1x : (0 : ℝ) < 1 + x := by linarith have hval : 1 - mu x = 1 / (1 + x) := by rw [hd]; unfold mu_dual; field_simp; ring have hle := hb x hx1 rw [hval] at hle have hx2 : (0 : ℝ) < x ^ 2 := by positivity have step : (1 / (1 + x)) * ((1 + x) * x ^ 2) ≤ (C / x ^ 2) * ((1 + x) * x ^ 2) := mul_le_mul_of_nonneg_right hle (by positivity) have key : x ^ 2 ≤ C * (1 + x) := by field_simp at step; linarith nlinarith [key, hx0, hxC, hC, hx1] · exact hs /-- **The disjunction collapses, under the uniform reading.** A constitutive relation is one function, not a patchwork: A4 offers two candidates and the theory picks one.
