Avenyra supplies the\nexact finite rule. The extension here makes its operational timing, noise\nresolution, energy exchange, and measurable readout explicit.\n\nThe strongest structural theorem is a complete observable classification:\n\\[\n\\boxed{\\begin{gathered}\n\\Delta\\,[x^T\\phi(-A^2)x]\\ge0\\text{ for every legal finite stroke}\\\\\n\\iff\\phi(0)=0,\\ \\phi|_{(0,\\infty)}\\ge0\\text{ and nondecreasing}.\n\\end{gathered}}\n\\]\nThis is complete within the quadratic scalar spectral class, not a complete\nreachability order or a classification of all Lyapunov functions.\nSection~\\ref{sec:spectral-cone} derives the exact endpoint measure transport,\nproves necessity and sufficiency, and separates full cone order from pointwise\nridge order. The rank-continuous ridge member\n$F_\\lambda=x^T[-A^2(\\lambda^2I-A^2)^{-1}]x$ retains its gap-free error budget:\nif $\\norm{Aa}\\le\\epsilon\\norm a$, its decrease is at most\n$(\\epsilon/\\lambda)(\\norm x^2+\\norm{x+a}^2)$.\nSection~\\ref{sec:ridge} gives its thermal readout; exact samples at any $2m$\npositive resolutions recover the visible $m$-mode measure and hence every\ncone certificate, under the exact-data assumptions of\nSection~\\ref{sec:finite-tomography}.\n\nThe gate also has a precise conditional selection principle. A bilinear\nskew write equivariant under every orthogonal frame change must be\n$\\gamma x\\wedge a$. For nonzero $\\gamma$, requiring the squared memory norm\nnever to fall for any endpoint $x$, while permission depends only on $A,a$,\nallows precisely $a\\in\\ker A$ (Section~\\ref{sec:intrinsicgeometry}).\nThe isotropy, bilinearity and robust memory-norm requirement are declared\ndesign axioms; observed physical matter must justify them independently.\n\nThe strongest combined readout compares two monitoring resolutions. In a seeded\nthree-dimensional sample-held controller,\n\\begin{equation}\\label{eq:core}\n\\boxed{\\begin{aligned}\n\\dd U&=2\\nu f(c)R\\,\\dd t,\\\\\n\\dd R&=2\\nu f(c)\\frac{RQ^2}{U}\\,\\dd t,\\\\\n\\dd Q&=\\sqrt{2\\nu}\\,\\dd W-\\nu f(c)\\frac{RQ}{U}\\,\\dd t,\n\\end{aligned}\\qquad f(c)=1-\\frac{1-e^{-c}}c.}\n\\end{equation}\nAn independent passive readout has\n\\begin{equation}\\label{eq:core-survival}\n\\boxed{S_{\\rm resolved}=U_0/U,\n\\qquad S_{\\rm diffusion\\ first}=(U_0/U)^{1/f}\\quad(f>0).}\n\\end{equation}\nThe first applies complete projection after each finite stroke. The second takes\nthe controller diffusion limit at finite loss and then increases the loss rate.\nSection~\\ref{sec:continuous-dark} proves the limit distinction. This is ordinary\npassive quantum mechanics tied to a particular classical geometric controller;\nclassical waves obey the same amplitude law. Coherent transport can avoid the\nattenuation. Known noisy optical physics is explicitly credited below.\n\nVersion 3 fills the positive joint-scaling interval between these sequential\nlimits. With $\\ell_h=\\gamma_h h\\to\\ell\\in(0,\\infty]$, define\n\\[\n\\boxed{S_\\ell(U)=\\exp\\!\\left[-\\frac1{f(c)}\\int_{U_0}^{U}\nF_c(e^{-\\ell u/2})\\frac{\\dd u}{u}\\right],\\quad\nF_c(q)=1-\\frac{(1-e^{-c})(1-q)}{c(1-e^{-c}q)}.}\n\\]\nFor $\\ell=\\infty$ the result is $U_0/U$. Its positive-$\\ell$ limit as\n$\\ell\\downarrow0$ is $(U_0/U)^{1/f}$; arbitrary joint paths with\n$\\ell_h\\to0$ are not covered. Section~\\ref{sec:joint-loss} proves the\nstate-dependent averaging and a localized\n$O_{\\mathbb P}(\\sqrt{h\\log(1/h)})$ log-error bound. In particular, the\nsurvival curve can depend on microscopic lag structure that a controller's\ncoarse diffusion alone does not identify.\n\nThe physical proposal has three layers which must remain distinct:\n\\begin{enumerate}\n\\item A classical history register $(x,A)$ and a specified powered controller.\n\\item A controlled mechanical, electrical, magnetic, or optical plant whose\ncouplings are set by that register.\n\\item An independent probe whose fluctuations, heat, or survival provide an\nobservable test.\n\\end{enumerate}\nNeither the probe displacement nor an unknown quantum state is silently\nidentified with the noiseless controller coordinate $x$. Such an identification\nwould require additional dynamics and invalidate the present proofs.\n\n\\subsection{What is inherited and what is added}\nAvenyra v1.0.0 \\cite{avenyra} proves the pre-gated reachability theorem, kernel\ntransport, rank-growth schedules, exterior-volume monotonicity, and a spectral\nrank-one reduction. Those results are inputs here. The additions are the\ntiming-family classification, complete continuous isospectrality, sharp\nfull-rank impulse threshold, seeded stochastic closure and colored-noise limit,\nand the explicit thermal and quantum readout laws. Version 2 adds the resolved\nexclusion family, finite-error certificates, continuous-loss theorem, selected\nentrance, arbitrary-rank intrinsic closure and finite-rate construction.\n\nVersion 3 adds the complete quadratic spectral cone, exact finite visible\ntomography, positive joint loss-scaling theorem, intrinsic geometry with a\nshort-history spatial error, an axiomatic gate selection, a conditional Jacobi\nobstruction and a finite-resource thermal writing certificate. These extend\nthe specified controller without identifying geometric area with physical\nenergy, spacetime curvature or a universal entropy.\n\nThe prior-art search found established ancestry in signatures, nonholonomic\nintegration, stochastic feedback, irreversible metamaterials, and reservoir\nengineering. Its outcome is not a proof of first priority. The manuscript does\nnot rely on an unverified proof of another open problem or on unseen manuscripts.\n\n","labels":["eq:core","eq:core-survival"],"source_line_start":90,"source_line_end":194,"context_requirement":"Read with integrated manuscript preamble, definitions and adjacent referenced sections; fragments are not standalone TeX documents.","evidence_kind":"source_authored_research_text","source_file":"research/Avenyra_Geometric_Memory_Physics.tex"}

A straight stroke with\ncontinuous area interpolation has $A(s)=A+sB$, so the parameter has an\noperational interpretation as the location of a permission sample. Midpoint\nor post-gated pulses must be computed prospectively or solved implicitly; they\nare not obtained by accidentally using a delayed pre-gate sensor.\n\n\\begin{theorem}[Exact timing budget and adjoint gate]\\label{thm:budget}\nEvery $\\theta$-legal transition satisfies\n\\begin{equation}\\label{eq:timing-budget}\nE(A')-E(A)=(1-2\\theta)\\area.\n\\end{equation}\nThe inverse algebraic transition is legal under the $(1-\\theta)$-gate. For an\narea-writing transition it is legal under the same gate exactly when\n$\\theta=1/2$.\n\\end{theorem}\n\\begin{proof}\nFor arbitrary $a$, expansion gives\n\\[\nE(A+B)-E(A)=\\area+2x^TAa.\n\\]\nThe gate makes $Aa=-\\theta Ba$ and $x^TBa=\\area$. For reversal use $-a$ from\n$x+a$; its area increment is $(x+a)\\wedge(-a)=-B$. The reversed gate becomes\n$-(A+\\theta B)a=0$. Testing it with the original $\\theta$ instead gives\n$-(1-2\\theta)Ba=0$. For $a\\ne0$, $Ba=0$ implies $x\\wedge a=0$.\n\\end{proof}\n\n\\begin{theorem}[Congruence and midpoint isospectrality]\\label{thm:congruence}\nFor $a\\ne0,\\theta\\ne0$, let $P=aa^T/\\norm a^2$ and\n$T_\\theta=I-P/\\theta$. Then\n\\begin{equation}\\label{eq:congruence}\nA'=T_\\theta A T_\\theta.\n\\end{equation}\nAt $\\theta=1/2$, $T_\\theta=I-2P$ is a Householder reflection, hence the full\ncharacteristic polynomial and all singular values are preserved.\n\\end{theorem}\n\\begin{proof}\nSkewness gives $PAP=0$ and\n\\[\nPA+AP=\\frac{Aa\\wedge a}{\\norm a^2}.\n\\]\nThe gate gives $Aa=-\\theta\\norm a^2P_{a^\\perp}x$, so\n$B=-(PA+AP)/\\theta$. Expansion of the congruence proves the identity. At the\nmidpoint $T_\\theta^T=T_\\theta=T_\\theta^{-1}$, making it an orthogonal conjugation.\n\\end{proof}\n\n\\begin{corollary}[Spectrum and rank classification]\nFor $\\theta<1/2$, all ordered singular values are nondecreasing; for\n$\\theta>1/2$, all are nonincreasing. At the midpoint they are constant.\nRank is constant for $\\theta\\notin\\{0,1\\}$. The pre-gate can create two ranks;\nthe post-gate can delete two ranks. A history starting at $A=0$ cannot write\nnonzero area using only gates with $\\theta\\ne0$.\n\\end{corollary}\n\\begin{proof}\nFor nonzero $\\theta<1/2$, $T_\\theta$ is expansive, with least singular value one;\nfor $\\theta>1/2$ it is contractive, with norm one. The standard singular-value\nbounds for left and right multiplication apply to \\eqref{eq:congruence}.\nThe zero-gate case uses the inherited positive rank-one spectral reduction.\nFor $\\theta\\notin\\{0,1\\}$ the congruence is invertible. At $\\theta=1$ it is a\nprojection congruence; rank cannot increase and its decrease is at most two,\nbecause $\\rank B\\le2$ and skew ranks are even. If $A=0,\\theta\\ne0$, the gate\ngives $Ba=0$, hence $B=0$.\n\\end{proof}\n\nThe rank-birth endpoint is therefore singular: an arbitrarily small but nonzero\n$\\theta$ cannot nucleate rank from precisely zero under exact legality. This\nstatement concerns exact rank, not the robustness of a numerical threshold.\n\n\\subsection{An orientation observable beyond the singular values}\nIn dimension $d=2m$, Pfaffian congruence gives\n\\begin{equation}\\label{eq:pfaffian}\n\\Pf(A')=\\left(1-\\frac1\\theta\\right)\\Pf(A),\\qquad\\theta\\ne0.\n\\end{equation}\nThus a nonzero midpoint pulse from full-rank memory reverses the Pfaffian sign\nwhile preserving all positive skew frequencies. No continuous full-rank\nisospectral path in the same oriented frame can do this: the continuous\nnonzero Pfaffian would have to cross zero to change sign. A real plant must\ntherefore execute a finite hybrid update, use an auxiliary space, or pass through\nan internal rank singularity while the signal is held or decoupled. The\nendpoint theorem does not prescribe a continuously protected interpolation.\n\n\\subsection{The exact full-rank impulse threshold}\nOriginal pre-gating freezes invertible $A$. Other timing gates allow a jump,\nbut not an arbitrarily small one.\n\\begin{theorem}[Sharp jump threshold]\\label{thm:threshold}\nIf $A$ is invertible, $x\\ne0$, and $\\theta\\ne0$, the smallest norm of a nonzero\n$\\theta$-legal displacement is\n\\begin{equation}\\label{eq:threshold}\n\\min\\norm a=\\frac1{|\\theta|\\norm{A^{-1}x}}.\n\\end{equation}\nIt is attained by $a=-A^{-1}x/(\\theta\\norm{A^{-1}x}^2)$, which is perpendicular\nto $x$.\n\\end{theorem}\n\\begin{proof}\nFor a nonzero legal $a$, put $\\lambda=\\theta\\inner xa$. Rearranging the gate\ngives $(\\lambda I-A)a=\\theta\\norm a^2x$. Since invertible skew $A$ has no real\neigenvalue, $v=(\\lambda I-A)^{-1}x$ exists for all real $\\lambda$ and\n$a=v/(\\theta\\norm v^2)$. Conversely every such resolvent vector gives a legal\ncontrol, since $\\inner xv=\\lambda\\norm v^2$.\nIn skew normal form, with positive frequencies $\\sigma_i$ and plane projections\n$x_i$, $\\norm v^2=\\sum_i\\norm{x_i}^2/(\\lambda^2+\\sigma_i^2)$.\nIts maximum occurs at $\\lambda=0$, where $v=-A^{-1}x$. Since\n$\\norm a=1/(|\\theta|\\norm v)$, this proves the minimum. Skewness of $A^{-1}$\ngives the perpendicularity.\n\\end{proof}\nIf $x=0$ and $A$ is invertible there is no nonzero legal control, for any\n$\\theta$. The threshold theorem excludes that case explicitly.\n\n","labels":["eq:theta","thm:budget","eq:timing-budget","thm:congruence","eq:congruence","eq:pfaffian","thm:threshold","eq:threshold"],"source_line_start":234,"source_line_end":348,"context_requirement":"Read with integrated manuscript preamble, definitions and adjacent referenced sections; fragments are not standalone TeX documents.","evidence_kind":"source_authored_research_text","source_file":"research/Avenyra_Geometric_Memory_Physics.tex"}

Finite legal jumps are not merely an interchangeable\nparameterization of the continuous rule.\n\n\\subsection{The screenshot's fundamental-arrow claim}\nThe supplied image suggests that reversible algebra plus feedback spontaneously\nproduces a fundamental arrow. The unrestricted area update is invertible, but\nthe \\emph{complete pre-gated transition relation} is already asymmetric under\nreversal. The inverse of a writing step is rejected at its new tensor. The\nmidpoint comparison isolates this asymmetry algebraically.\n\nMore precisely, any time-reversal involution $\\Theta$ that preserves $E$ cannot\nreverse a writing step under the same pre-gate. If it did, monotonicity would\nimply $E(s)\\ge E(s')>E(s)$. Orthogonal changes of frame and sign changes of $x,A$\npreserve $E$, so the usual candidate reversors are covered. Larger reversible\napparatuses retaining a clock and control record are not excluded: they can\nreverse the unrestricted shear while using the opposite gate phase.\n\nAn exact nonwriting stationary probability measure is possible; a stationary\nmeasure with positive probability of writing is not. To see this without any\nmoment assumption, apply stationarity to the bounded increasing function\n$E/(1+E)$. Its one-step increment is nonnegative and strictly positive on every\nwriting transition, so its stationary expected increment cannot be zero unless\nwriting has zero probability. A stationary nonzero writing regime needs reset,\nleakage, or a larger controlled state. A positive long-run writing rate forces\nunbounded memory; nonstationary summable writing is not excluded.\n\nA finite-dimensional closed unitary has a related elementary obstruction. If\n$U^\\dagger F U-F\\succeq0$ for a Hermitian observable $F$, its trace is zero, so\nthe difference is zero. Universal strict increase cannot be achieved by that\nclosed unitary. Open channels and external control avoid those hypotheses.\nThese no-go statements set the scope; they do not prohibit controlled geometric\nmemory devices or establish a universal energy lower bound.\n\n","labels":["thm:continuous"],"source_line_start":348,"source_line_end":398,"context_requirement":"Read with integrated manuscript preamble, definitions and adjacent referenced sections; fragments are not standalone TeX documents.","evidence_kind":"source_authored_research_text","source_file":"research/Avenyra_Geometric_Memory_Physics.tex"}

Ordinary Gronwall uniqueness identifies all subsequential limits.\nFor completeness, the localization is removable deterministically. The exact\n$Q$ recursion is $Q_{j+1}=c_j(Q_j+s_j)$ with $0<c_j\\le1$. Expansion of the\nrecursion and Abel summation against the cumulative driver give\n$\\max_j|Q_j|\\le |Q_0|+2\\max_j|Z_h(jh)|$.

In the colored\nsample-held vector limit their coefficients are multiplied by $1-f(c)$.\nThe two models have different controllers and different drifts. In contrast,\nthe antisymmetric area integral itself is identical in It\\^o and Stratonovich\nfor a fixed semimartingale $x$: their correction is symmetric in the two\ncoordinates and cancels under antisymmetrization.\n\nFor $f(c)<1$, the angular quadratic variation of the limiting continuous\nsemimartingale is $2\\nu R/U\\,\\dd t$, whereas the resolved sampling-grid square\nbudget tends to $2\\nu f(c)R/U\\,\\dd t=\\dd\\log U$. This is not a contradiction.\nQuadratic variation is not continuous under smooth or correlated-noise\napproximations. Equation \\eqref{eq:angular} identifies the two only in the\nindependent-pulse limit.

This is a proposed protocol\ncomparison, not an experimental observation or a universal thermodynamic cost.\n\n\\begin{proof}[Why the actual held-register vector limit has this drift]\nLet $Y=(x,b)$, $g(Y)=(n,x\\times n)$, and $\\Phi_z$ be the complete flow of\n$\\dd Y/\\dd z=g(Y)$.

A calibrated finite-rate\napparatus must scale its bandwidth, input range and losses to approximate that\nlimit; fixed component bandwidth does not do so automatically. Higher-corank\nprojector fields require the tangency conditions in Section~\\ref{sec:multi}.\n\nMore precisely, let $S_{h,\\gamma}$ use endpoint losses held during dwells $h$\non the same correlated finite controller histories. At fixed $h$, infinite\nloss gives the exact projection telescope. At fixed $\\gamma$, uniform vector\nconvergence gives the continuous loss ODE by Duhamel/Gronwall.

At $f=0$ the\ncorresponding values are $1$ and $e^{-2\\nu R_0T/U_0}$; at $f=1$ these survival\nlimits agree. Ensemble survival averages each nonlinear expression over the\ncontroller histories. It does not insert the mean memory into that expression.\nA physical reservoir's finite auxiliary bandwidth also limits the accessible\n$\\gamma$; the statement is a limit of the specified GKSL model.\n\n\\subsection{A known optical benchmark and noncommuting limits}\nFor $n=(\\cos\\theta,\\sin\\theta,0)$, $\\theta=\\sqrt{k}\\,W$ and constant $U$, an\nindependent two-dimensional rotating-frame benchmark has moments\n\\[\n\\frac\\dd{\\dd t}\\begin{pmatrix}\\E y_1^2\\\\\\E y_2^2\\end{pmatrix}\n=\\begin{pmatrix}-k&k\\\\k&-(\\Gamma+k)\\end{pmatrix}\n\\begin{pmatrix}\\E y_1^2\\\\\\E y_2^2\\end{pmatrix},\n\\qquad \\Gamma=\\gamma U.\n\\]\nWith the initial dark state, $d=(\\Gamma^2+4k^2)^{1/2}$ gives\n\\[\n\\E S_\\gamma(t)=e^{-(\\Gamma+2k)t/2}\n\\left[\\cosh(dt/2)+\\frac{\\Gamma+2k}{d}\\sinh(dt/2)\\right]\n\\longrightarrow e^{-kt}.\n\\]\nThis fixture is not an Avenyra trajectory.

Thus a permission direction need\nnot have a continuous entrance value even though $b\\to0$ and the scalar\nobservables do. Vector weak existence follows from tight transverse-seed limits: on stopped\nbounded $x$ domains, $U_\\epsilon\\ge U_{0,\\epsilon}+\\kappa(r_0/2)t$ bounds\nvector drifts by $C/\\sqrt t$ and noise coefficients by constants. Brownian\nmoment bounds give tight continuous paths.

The scalar fixed\npoint identifies its observables. The next theorem upgrades this existence result to uniqueness in the immediate-writing class.\nA Borel extension assigning $n(x,0)=x/\\norm x$ also admits a nonwriting\nBrownian-line weak solution; the writing law spends zero time at $b=0$ and\nsolves that same extension. An explicit boundary policy is therefore needed.\nThe two following theorems now resolve nonzero-anchor vector uniqueness and\nselfsimilar writing from the complete origin; arbitrary boundary-policy\nuniqueness remains excluded.\n\nIdeal fully relaxed survival $U_0/U(t)$ tends to zero as the seed vanishes at\nfixed positive $t$ on this writing branch. A finite-rate loss probe is different:\n$S_\\gamma(t)\\ge\\exp[-\\gamma\\int_0^tU(s)\\dd s]>0$ for any initial unit signal,\nso zero seed does not prohibit finite-rate probing. Its generator\n$U(I-P_n)=UI-bb^T=A^TA$ extends polynomially to $b=0$; the finite-rate\nprobe ODE has no normalized-direction singularity. At zero every signal mode\nis initially dark, and its chosen preparation becomes additional data.\nFor a prescribed two-pulse seed with $x\\cdot b=0$, $R=\\norm x^2>0$ and\n$U=\\norm b^2$, all preparations are\n$p=\\alpha x+(x\\times b)/R$, $q=x-p$.\nTheir sharp minimum quadratic stroke budget is $R/2+2U/R$, and minimum total\nlength is $\\sqrt{R+4U/R}$, attained at $\\alpha=1/2$. Optimizing over $R$\ngives budgets $2\\sqrt U$ and $2U^{1/4}$. These are geometric preparation costs;\nphysical work still depends on the apparatus.\nStarting at $(x,b)=(0,0)$, two finite legal strokes $e_1,e_2$ give\n$(x,b)=(e_1+e_2,e_3)$ and provide an explicit operational seed.\n\n\\subsection{The nonzero-anchor vector entrance is unique in law}\n\\begin{theorem}[Canonical immediate-writing vector law]\\label{thm:vector-entrance}\nLet $x_0\\ne0$, $\\nu>0$, and $0<f\\le1$.

Existence is not inferred\nfrom evaluating a singular projector there. We construct a positive stationary\nlaw in logarithmic time and verify continuity of the observable vectors.\n\n\\begin{theorem}[Unique selfsimilar scalar origin writing law]\\label{thm:origin}\nFor $\\nu>0$ and $\\kappa=2\\nu f>0$, there exists a continuous immediately\nwriting scalar weak entrance from $U=R=Q=0$. It is unique in law in the\nselfsimilar positive writing class. There also exists a rotationally invariant\nselfsimilar vector weak entrance from $(x,b)=(0,0)$. Define a dimensionless\nconstant $c_*$ through the unique positive stationary law below. Then\n\\begin{equation}\\label{eq:origin-means}\n\\boxed{\\E R(t)=\\nu c_*t,\\quad\n\\E U(t)=\\frac{\\kappa\\nu c_*}{2}t^2,\\quad\n\\E Q(t)^2=\\nu(2-c_*)t,\\qquad 1<c_*<2.}\n\\end{equation}\nThe constant is independent of $\\nu,\\kappa>0$ for this model. It is not\na claimed universal constant of nature. Neither uniqueness of all origin\nvector laws nor universal selection by finite seeds is asserted.\n\\end{theorem}\n\\begin{proof}\nFor $s=\\log t$, set\n$U=\\kappa\\nu t^2X(s)$, $R=\\nu tY(s)$, $Q=\\sqrt{\\nu t}\\,z(s)$.\nIt\\^o's rule gives the parameter-free diffusion\n\\begin{equation}\\label{eq:origin-log}\n\\dd X=(Y-2X)\\dd s,\\quad\n\\dd Y=Y(z^2/X-1)\\dd s,\\quad\n\\dd z=\\sqrt2\\dd B-\\tfrac12(1+Y/X)z\\dd s.\n\\end{equation}\nIts domain is $D=\\{0<X\\le Y,\\ z\\in\\R\\}$.\nIt is invariant because $(Y-X)'=Yz^2/X-2(Y-X)$.\nAlso $X(s)\\ge X(0)e^{-2s}$ and $Y(s)\\ge Y(0)e^{-s}$ on finite forward\nintervals. With $H=Y/X$ and $S=Y+z^2$,\n\\begin{equation}\\label{eq:origin-S}\n\\dd S=(2-S)\\dd s+2\\sqrt2 z\\dd B.\n\\end{equation}\nSince $z^2\\le S$, localized expectation and BDG bounds prevent explosion.\nThus the positive-domain diffusion is globally well posed and Feller.\n\nHere is the essential persistence estimate, including its constants.\nLet $\\ell=1/40$. A nonincreasing $C^2$ cutoff $\\chi$ equals one below $\\ell$\nand zero above $2\\ell$; in between put\n$\\chi=1-10r^3+15r^4-6r^5$, $r=(Y-\\ell)/\\ell$.\nThen $|\\chi'|\\le75$.

The Feller occupation\nargument supplies an invariant probability $\\pi$, with $\\pi\\mathcal W\\le512$.\nThe face $X=Y$ immediately enters the interior under Brownian forcing, so\n$\\pi$ is supported on $0<X<Y$.\n\nWe also establish uniqueness, rather than merely choose an invariant law.\nFor drift $b=(Y-2X,Yz^2/X-Y,-(1+Y/X)z/2)$ and noise $V_1=\\partial_z$,\n\\[\n[\\partial_z,b]=(0,2Yz/X,-(1+Y/X)/2),\\quad\n[\\partial_z,[\\partial_z,b]]=(0,2Y/X,0)=V_2.\n\\]\nThe $X$ component of $[V_2,b]$ is $2Y/X\\ne0$.\nThese fields span all three directions. The localized parabolic\nH\\\"ormander theorem \\cite{hormander} gives smooth transition densities and\nthe strong Feller property in the interior.\nA common accessible point follows from explicit controls. Put $a=X/Y$;\ncontrolled paths obey\n\\[\na'=1-a-z^2/Y,\\qquad (\\log X)'=1/a-2.\n\\]\nConversely prescribe a smooth $0<a<1$ with $a'\\le1-a$, solve the second\nequation and choose $z^2=Y(1-a-a')$. Holds with $a<1/2$ grow $X$ by any\ndesired factor; holds with $a>1/2$ shrink it. Feasible ratio transitions and\nsmooth changes of $z$ connect these holds. Their durations adjust the final\nmagnitude. A final $a=1/2$ segment can reach any neighborhood of\n$(X,Y,z)=(1,2,1)$. The noise control realizes each smooth $z$ path.\nSupport follows directly here: subtract the additive noise from $z$,\nsolve the locally Lipschitz random ODE on a compact positive-domain tube,\nand use continuity in the uniform driving path and positive Wiener probability\nof each Cameron--Martin tube. This is the localized mechanism behind the\nsupport theorem \\cite{stroock}, and gives a common accessible interior point. Strong Feller plus this accessibility excludes two invariant\nprobabilities. This does not assert reachability of every state at every short time.\n\nWe record the moments needed to justify the singular inverse time change.\nEquation~\\eqref{eq:origin-S} gives $\\pi S=2$. Since\n$(-\\log X)_+\\le2G+2S$ and $\\log_+X\\le S$,\n$\\pi|\\log X|<\\infty$. Stationarity of $(\\log X)'=H-2$ gives $\\pi H=2$.\nThe square equation for $z$ then gives $\\pi[(1+H)z^2]=2$, with its\nmartingale square integrable because $\\pi z^2\\le2$. Hence\n\\[\n\\pi(H|z|)\\le2,\\quad \\pi\\sqrt H\\le\\sqrt2,\n\\quad\\pi\\sqrt{SH}\\le2.\n\\]\nTake a two-sided stationary diffusion and set\n$W_t=\\int_{-\\infty}^{\\log t}e^{s/2}\\dd B_s$; its quadratic variation is $t$.\nThe inverse time change recovers the original scalar equations on $t>0$.\nStationarity and BDG applied to \\eqref{eq:origin-S} bound expected unit-block\nsuprema of $S$ uniformly. Markov's inequality and Borel--Cantelli show\n$e^{-n}\\sup_{[-n-1,-n]}S\\to0$ almost surely. Thus $R,Q,U\\to0$ almost surely\nas $t\\downarrow0$. The improper $Q$ drift is absolutely integrable because\n\\[\n\\E\\int_0^T\\frac{\\kappa R|Q|}{2U}\\dd t\n=\\frac{\\sqrt\\nu}{2}\\int_0^Tt^{-1/2}\\pi(H|z|)\\dd t<\\infty.\n\\]\nThe other two equations have nonnegative integrable derivatives. They all\nhold in integrated form from zero. Stationarity implies selfsimilarity.\nConversely any selfsimilar positive scalar origin entrance induces an\ninvariant law in logarithmic time (and $X\\le Y$ follows from\n$U=\\kappa\\int_0^tR\\le\\kappa tR$). Uniqueness of $\\pi$ and positive-time\nwell-posedness therefore establish uniqueness in this selfsimilar class.\n\nFor a vector lift, augment the stationary base by the frame equation in the\npreceding proof, with time and scalar coefficients transformed to logarithmic\ntime. Its body coefficients depend only on $(X,Y,z)$ and it is a\nright-multiplicative orthogonal flow. Conditional on the base and Brownian\nrecord, this flow preserves Haar measure. Consequently\n$\\pi\\times\\mathrm{Haar}_{SO(3)}$ is invariant for the joint process and has a\ntwo-sided stationary realization. Define\n\\[\nx(t)=\\sqrt{\\nu t}\\,[\\sqrt{Y(\\log t)}e(\\log t)+z(\\log t)n(\\log t)],\\quad\nb(t)=\\sqrt{\\kappa\\nu}\\,t\\sqrt{X(\\log t)}n(\\log t).\n\\]\nThe It\\^o product rule recovers the colored vector controller. The preceding\nblock bound proves $x,b\\to0$ almost surely. Its coordinate drift is bounded\nin expectation by a constant times $t^{-1/2}\\pi\\sqrt H$, and memory drift\nby a constant times $\\pi\\sqrt{SH}$. Both integrate at zero. The coordinate\ndiffusion is bounded, and the memory diffusion has squared magnitude with\nfinite expectation proportional to $t\\pi Y$. Thus this is a continuous\nrotationally invariant vector weak writing entrance, including time zero.\n\nFinally let $c_*=\\pi Y$. Since $H>1$ and the additive noise makes\n$\\pi z^2>0$, $\\pi[(1+H)z^2]=2$ implies $0<\\pi z^2<1$.\nTogether with $\\pi S=2$ and stationarity of $X'=Y-2X$ this yields\n$1<c_*<2$, $\\pi X=c_*/2$ and \\eqref{eq:origin-means}.\n\\end{proof}\nAn explicit invariant density or a numerical value of $c_*$ has not been\ncertified. This proof closes selfsimilar scalar uniqueness and vector existence;\nit does not classify all nonselfsimilar origin laws. At $f=0$ the integrated\nequation instead forces $U(t)=0$ from $U(0)=0$, excluding positive writing.\nThe positive-$f$ entrance uses indefinitely many log-time frame rotations\nnear zero. A finite-bandwidth apparatus regularizes that region through an\nactual seed and schedule; its selection of this law remains to be tested.\n\n","labels":["sec:zero","thm:entrance","thm:vector-entrance","thm:origin","eq:origin-means","eq:origin-log","eq:origin-S","eq:origin-foster"],"source_line_start":1289,"source_line_end":1689,"context_requirement":"Read with integrated manuscript preamble, definitions and adjacent referenced sections; fragments are not standalone TeX documents.","evidence_kind":"source_authored_research_text","source_file":"research/Avenyra_Geometric_Memory_Physics.tex"}

Every existing absolutely continuous\nlegal path is isospectral, so it remains on a fixed-rank stratum. Its tangent\nmust have zero kernel--kernel block:\n\\begin{equation}\\label{eq:tangency}\nP\\dot A P=w\\wedge v=0.\n\\end{equation}\nWhen $w\\ne0$, this confines its kernel velocity to the line through $w$.\nFor an actual legal path, differentiation gives\n$\\dot P=-hv^T-vh^T$, $\\dot w=v-h(v\\cdot w)$ and\n$\\dd(\\norm x^2-\\norm w^2)/\\dd t=0$.\n\nFor fixed input columns $g_i$, put $p_i=Pg_i$ and\n$F_i=(p_i,x\\wedge p_i)$. If two projected Brownian input directions are\nindependent, a pure continuous Stratonovich equation with these fields cannot\nhave a local solution satisfying the fixed-rank chain rules. Tangency requires\n$w\\wedge p_i=0$ for each driver; with two independent directions it forces\n$w=0$ on a neighborhood. But then $\\dd w$ has nonzero diffusion coefficient\n$PG$, contradicting $w\\equiv0$. This is a nonexistence result for that proposed\ncontinuous equation, not for every discrete controller or controlled path.\n\n\\subsection{The actual generic even-dimensional pulse limit}\nSuppose each proposed pulse, conditioned on the preceding history, has a\nnondegenerate density on the current kernel.

If the initial\ncorank is $k$, put $m=\\lfloor k/2\\rfloor$. For $m>0$, rank saturates almost\nsurely after exactly\n\\[\nN=\\begin{cases}2m,&w_0=0,\\\\2m-1,&w_0\\ne0.\\end{cases}\n\\]\nFor $m=0$ it is already maximally ranked; freezing then holds only in even dimension. Indeed a nonzero $w$ and a generic new\nstroke are independent, creating rank two and setting the new kernel component\nof $x$ to zero. A stroke from $w=0$ preserves rank and creates a nonzero kernel\ncomponent. These two cases alternate by the exact kernel transport theorem.\nIn even dimension the final kernel is zero, so all subsequent motion freezes.\nIf each of these finitely many strokes is $O_P(\\sqrt h)$, their entire prefix\nchanges $x,A$ by $O_P(\\sqrt h)$. On every fixed time horizon the controller\ntherefore converges uniformly in probability to its stationary initial state.\nFull rank at each finite $h$ can converge to a lower-rank matrix. This identifies\nthe actual collapse rather than assigning a spurious diffusion to the singular\nprojector. Odd dimension leaves one permission line, but vanishing newly born\nfrequencies can still produce a singular entrance.\n\n\\subsection{A matrix colored-noise law on a valid seeded sector}\nA smooth invariant sector does exist: retain a unit kernel line $n$, require\n$w=Qn$ and $PG=n\\ell^T$, and seed the nonzero image spectrum away from zero.\nFinite legal pulses along $n$ preserve this sector and rank.

Both have $E=7,R=3,H=7/4,Q=0$ and identical\nfull spectrum, but $J=21/16$ and $45/32$. Their next finite $H$ updates differ.\nA universal three-scalar higher-rank closure is disproved. The following\nfinite polynomial representation supplies a complete replacement.\n\n\\subsection{A complete finite polynomial closure at arbitrary seeded rank}\nThe failure of three scalars does not require an infinite hierarchy. In the\nintrinsic sector $x=u+Qn$, $n\\in\\ker A$, let the positive squared skew\nfrequencies be $\\sigma_j^2$, and let $r_j$ be the squared length of $u$ in\nits corresponding two-plane.

Orthogonal normal form shows that frequencies,\nimage weights and signed $Q$ determine every next quotient state.\n\\end{proof}\n\nFor a continuous additive driver $Z$, a resolved square budget $\\kappa t$, and\nvanishing cubic remainders, the coefficient limit is exactly\n\\[\n\\boxed{\\dd p=\\kappa N\\dd t,\\qquad\n\\dd N=\\kappa Q^2\\frac{Hp-N}z\\dd t,\\qquad\n\\dd Q=\\dd Z-\\frac\\kappa2HQ\\dd t.}\n\\]\nFor sampled scalar OU input, $Z=\\sqrt{2\\nu}W$ and $\\kappa=2\\nu f(c)$.\nTaylor expansion and the same positive-clock convergence argument used in\nLemma~\\ref{lem:pulse-limit} prove the limit. It is globally unique in the\nseeded intrinsic sector. Indeed the smallest frequency never decreases,\n$H\\le R/\\sigma_*^2$, and the contraction for $Q$ bounds it by\n$|Q_0|+2\\sup|Z|$. Thus $\\dot R=\\kappa HQ^2$ bounds $R$ exponentially on\ncompact intervals. The energy coefficient and all other polynomial coefficients\nremain bounded; $p(0)$ stays positive. The positivity domain can also be preserved for a continuous additive input\nby splitting exact intrinsic continuous flows (which shift $Q$ and preserve\n$p,N$) with pairs of pulses $+\\epsilon,-\\epsilon$. The latter implement\nvariance-clock increments $2\\epsilon^2$ with the displayed drift and vanishing\ncubic errors. These approximations preserve the seeded gap.

An internal clock, latch\nand finite-state sequencer provide operational autonomy under power. This is\na specified circuit model, not a fabricated circuit or passive material.\n\nMemory-capacitor energy at the settled endpoints increases by\n$\\Delta E_b=C_bB_*^2\\area/2$.

Finite dynamic range $U_{\\max}$ implies, in the\nseeded noisy regime, saturation no later than\n$(U_{\\max}-U_0)/(2\\nu fR_0)$ when $\\nu fR_0>0$; resets or rescaling change the\noriginal rule and require their own account.\n\nIf the implemented dynamics has defects\n$\\dot x=v+e_x$, $\\dot b=j+e_b$,\n$\\tau_b\\dot j+j=x\\times v+e_m$, then\n\\[\n\\dot b_{\\rm eff}-x\\times\\dot x=e_b+e_m-x\\times e_x.\n\\]\nThis gives an integrated error bound\n$\\int_0^T(\\norm{e_b}+\\norm{e_m}+X_{\\max}\\norm{e_x})\\dd t$ whenever\n$\\norm x\\le X_{\\max}$. Unequal axis response also creates loop area even when\nendpoint position is correct; calibration must measure it.\nAn additive skew-memory defect $D_A$ adds at most\n$\\norm{D_A}_{\\rm op}\\norm{x'}^2/\\lambda$ to the per-step loss allowance in\nTheorem~\\ref{thm:ridge-error}.

Perpendicular nonzero\nstrokes from $A=0$ create any prescribed positive squared frequency,\nforcing $\\phi(t)\\ge0$ for every $t>0$. Finally take a three-dimensional\nrank-two seed with $(U,R,Q)=(t,1,-s)$ and legal pulse $a=sn$. Its exact\nendpoint has $(U_+,R_+,Q_+)=(t+s^2,1,0)$. Hence\n$\\phi(t+s^2)\\ge\\phi(t)$ for arbitrary $t,s^2>0$.\n\\end{proof}\n\nExamples include $\\phi(t)=t^p$ for every $p>0$, $\\log(1+t)$,\n$\\min(t,c)$, and both $\\mathbf1_{[c,\\infty)}(t)$ and\n$\\mathbf1_{(c,\\infty)}(t)$ for $c>0$. The powers $p>1$ extend beyond\nthe complete Bernstein subclass obtainable as positive ridge mixtures.\nIf $\\phi$ is strictly increasing on $(0,\\infty)$, every nonzero area\nstroke strictly increases $M_\\phi$; its nonnegative values and\n$\\phi(0)=0$ also make the extension strictly increasing at zero.\nFor a nonstrict function, equality means exactly that both nonnegative\nterms in \\eqref{eq:cone-increment} vanish. No general strictness is claimed\nfor threshold or projector observables.\n\nIf $\\phi(t)-m t$ itself belongs to the cone, the polynomial law yields\n\\[\n\\Delta M_\\phi\\ge m\\area\\norm{x+a}^2,\n\\]\nwhere $\\area=\\norm x^2\\norm a^2-(x\\cdot a)^2$ is the squared\nparallelogram area, avoiding a matrix-norm normalization ambiguity.\n\n\\subsection{Observable order and its limits}\nOrdering all functions in \\eqref{eq:complete-cone} is equivalent to\nordering every positive spectral tail mass:\n\\[\n\\mu_2([c,\\infty))\\ge\\mu_1([c,\\infty))\\quad\\text{for every }c>0.\n\\]\nThe equivalent open-tail formulation also includes any prescribed jump\nvalue. Balancing total masses by adding zero atoms gives ordinary\nfirst-order stochastic dominance. Every legal own-area transition has\nthis order, but the order is not a complete reachability criterion.\nIn three dimensions $(U,R,Q)=(1,1,0)$ is ordered below $(4,1,0)$.\nNevertheless the first nonzero pulse raises $R$ by\n$s^4/(1+s^2)>0$, and later pulses cannot reduce it; the second state is\nnot finitely reachable, even modulo orthogonal coordinates.\n\nPointwise ridge order between arbitrary states is also weaker than this\nfull cone order. For $\\mu_1=\\delta_4$, $\\mu_2=2\\delta_3$, all ridge responses\nincrease because\n\\[\n\\frac6{z+3}-\\frac4{z+4}\n=\\frac{2z+12}{(z+3)(z+4)}>0,\n\\]\nwhile the tail at four decreases and the cubic certificate falls from\n$64$ to $54$.\n\nThe specified held harmonic probe realizes the ridge subclass; exact\nfinite spectral reconstruction then determines every member of the cone.\nThis does not assert universal passive realizability for arbitrary\n$\\phi$, or stable noisy reconstruction of thresholds. Threshold\ncertificates may jump at frequency crossings, whereas the earlier ridge\nbounds remain rank-continuous.\n\nFinally, the cone does not uniquely characterize the write law. Any rule\n$A_+=A+\\gamma x\\wedge a$, $\\gamma\\in\\R$, preserves it: the transport proof\nreplaces $s^2$ by $\\gamma^2s^2$, while $q=Q+s$ is unchanged. Monotonicity\nalone fixes neither gain nor sign. All results here concern finite\nmatrices and exact finite strokes, not unbounded operators. Discontinuous\ncertificates require a separate convergence argument in continuous or\nstochastic limits.\n\n\n\\subsection{Finite tomography of the observable spectral geometry}\n\\label{sec:finite-tomography}\n\nLet $H=-A^2\\succeq0$. Denote its distinct positive eigenvalues visible to\n$x$ by $t_j=\\sigma_j^2$, and put $r_j=\\|P_{t_j}x\\|^2>0$.\nThe observable measure and ridge response are\n\\begin{equation}\\label{eq:tomographic-response}\n \\mu_x=\\sum_{j=1}^{m_{\\rm obs}}r_j\\delta_{t_j},\\qquad\n F_{\\sqrt z}(x,A)=\\sum_{j=1}^{m_{\\rm obs}}\\frac{r_jt_j}{z+t_j}\n =\\frac{P(z)}{Q(z)},\\quad z>0.\n\\end{equation}\nFor $m_{\nm obs}=0$ the response is identically zero. Otherwise,\nin reduced form $Q(z)=\\prod_j(z+t_j)$ is monic, $\\deg P=m_{\\rm obs}-1$,\nand $P,Q$ are coprime. Indeed the residue at $-t_j$ is the strictly positive\n$r_jt_j$, so no pole cancels. The harmonic equilibrium readout of\nSection~\\ref{sec:ridge} measures this response by varying the known probe\nstiffness scale. The reconstruction below assumes exact response values;\nfinite equilibrium sampling produces an inverse problem with uncertainty.\n\n\\begin{theorem}[Exact finite observable tomography]\\label{thm:finite-tomography}\nIf the number of visible distinct positive eigenvalues is at most $m$, the\nvalues of $F_{\\sqrt z}$ at any $2m$ distinct positive $z$ uniquely determine\nthe reduced rational response and $\\mu_x$. If the actual count is known to\nbe $m$, the corresponding monic rational-interpolation system is nonsingular.\nFor otherwise unrestricted positive weights and distinct frequencies,\nfewer than $2m$ such scalar samples fail to identify the measure locally.\n\\end{theorem}\n\\begin{proof}\nFor two admissible responses, their cross-multiplied difference\n$P_1Q_2-P_2Q_1$ has degree at most $2m-1$. Its $2m$ distinct measured zeros\nmake it identically zero. Equal rational functions have equal negative\nsimple poles and residues, recovering $t_j$ and $r_j$.\nWith the actual degree fixed, the homogeneous interpolation system has\n$\\delta P\\,Q-P\\,\\delta Q=0$, with both variations of degree at most $m-1$.\nCoprimality forces $Q\\mid\\delta Q$, hence both variations vanish.\n\nFor local necessity, differentiate the response with respect to its $2m$\nparameters:\n\\[\n \\delta F(z)=\\sum_j\\left[\n \\frac{t_j\\delta r_j}{z+t_j}\n +\\frac{r_jz\\delta t_j}{(z+t_j)^2}\\right].\n\\]\nAfter multiplication by $Q^2$, its numerator has degree at most $2m-1$.\nVanishing at $2m$ samples therefore gives $\\delta F=0$ identically.\nThe double-pole coefficient $-r_jt_j\\delta t_j$ then forces every\n$\\delta t_j=0$, and the simple-pole residues force every $\\delta r_j=0$.\nThus the $2m$-sample Jacobian is invertible. Any $k<2m$ sample rows can be\nextended to such a matrix and have rank $k$. The implicit-function theorem\ngives local positive-dimensional fibers of measures with the same $k$ data.\n\\end{proof}\n\nWhen $m$ is only an upper bound, coefficient interpolation can have multiple\nsolutions with a common numerator/denominator factor. Cancel that factor,\nor select the minimal denominator, before interpreting its poles. For\nexample, $t=(1,4)$ and $r=(2,3)$ give\n\\[\n F_{\\sqrt z}=\\frac{14z+20}{z^2+5z+4},\\qquad\n F_{\\sqrt z}\\big|_{z=(1/2,1,2,4)}=(4,17/5,8/3,19/10).\n\\]\n\nThe reconstructed measure determines every quadratic spectral functional\n$\\sum_jr_j\\phi(t_j)$ with $\\phi(0)=0$, including thresholded exclusion\nweights. Since $x$ is a measured classical register, its aggregate kernel\nweight is also known:\n\\[\n r_0=\\|x\\|^2-\\sum_jr_j,\\qquad\n x^T\\phi(H)x=r_0\\phi(0)+\\sum_jr_j\\phi(t_j).\n\\]\nIt does not identify eigenspaces invisible to $x$, their multiplicities,\nmode orientation, the full matrix $A$, or its permission kernel.\nThe local sample lower bound counts ridge data alone; independently known\nnormalizations or a known zero kernel weight can reduce the free parameters.\nFor instance, with fixed $x=e_1$, coupling the same skew frequency to $e_2$\nor to $e_3$ gives the same ridge response and different legal control lines.\nNear-coincident poles and weak residues make inversion poorly conditioned.\nExact identifiability is therefore distinct from a stable noisy inverse\ntheorem; the direct ridge-error certificates remain applicable even when\nindividual poles cannot be resolved.\n\n\\paragraph{Correlation tomography has a different data requirement.}\nUnder the independently verified joint-loss averaging hypotheses,\n\\[\n \\chi(q)=C_0+2\\sum_{k\\ge1}C_kq^k,\n \\qquad -C_0\\frac{\\dd\\log S}{\\dd\\log U}=\\chi(q),\n \\quad q=e^{-\\ell U/2}.\n\\]\nAn exact response known on an open interval determines this analytic\nfunction and hence $C_k=\\chi^{(k)}(0)/(2k!)$.

The limits $\\ell\\uparrow\\infty$ and $\\ell\\downarrow0$ give exponent one\nand exponent $1/f$, respectively. The latter is a limit of the proved\npositive-$\\ell$ formula, not a theorem for every joint path $\\ell_h\\to0$:\nthat condition alone even permits a fixed finite $\\gamma_h$. Simultaneous\nvariation of $c$, or overlapping write and loss, also requires separate bounds.\n\n\\subsection{Deterministic elimination of the bright lag}\nThe proof starts with exact geometry rather than a guessed stochastic\ninterpretation. Set\n\\[\n g_{j-1}=\\frac{x_{j-1}\\times n_{j-1}}{\\sqrt{U_{j-1}}},\n \\qquad G_{j-1}=\\norm{g_{j-1}}^2=R_{j-1}/U_{j-1}.\n\\]\nThen $n_j=(n_{j-1}+s_jg_{j-1})/\\sqrt{1+s_j^2G_{j-1}}$ exactly.\nWrite $\\psi_j=\\alpha_j(n_j+r_j)$, with $r_j\\perp n_j$. For sufficiently small\nmaximal stroke $m=\\max_{j\\le N}|s_j|$ and $q_j\\le q_*<1$, the scalar amplitude\nstays positive, and direct multiplication gives\n\\begin{equation}\\label{eq:jalpha}\n \\frac{\\alpha_j}{\\alpha_{j-1}}\n =\\frac{1+s_jg_{j-1}\\cdot r_{j-1}}\n {\\sqrt{1+s_j^2G_{j-1}}},\\qquad\n r_j=q_j(r_{j-1}-s_jg_{j-1})+e_j.\n\\end{equation}\nOn compact localization,\n\\[\n |e_j|\\le C\\bigl(s_j^2+|s_j|\\norm{r_{j-1}}\n +|s_j|\\norm{r_{j-1}}^2\\bigr).\n\\]\nA small invariant ball yields $\\sup_j\\norm{r_j}\\le Cm$. Stable geometric\nconvolution and absorption of the $Cm\\norm r_{\\ell^2}$ term yield\n\\[\n \\norm r_{\\ell^2}\\le C\\norm s_{\\ell^2},\\qquad\n \\norm e_{\\ell^2}\\le Cm\\norm s_{\\ell^2}.\n\\]\nThus the error from solving the linear bright filter has $\\ell^2$ norm at most\n$Cm\\norm s_{\\ell^2}$. Freezing $g$ and $q$ over its geometric lags obeys the\nsame bound: $|g_i-g_{i-1}|\\le C|s_i|$ and\n$|q_i-q_{i-1}|\\le Cs_i^2$, and all sums $\\sum k^a q_*^k$ are finite. The\nsecond bound is uniform in $\\ell_h$, since\n$|q_h'(u)|\\le1/(eU_0)$ for $u\\ge U_0$. Therefore\n\\begin{equation}\\label{eq:jbright}\n r_{j-1}=-g_{j-1}\\sum_{k=1}^{j-1}q_j^ks_{j-k}+\\varepsilon_{j-1},\n \\qquad \\norm\\varepsilon_{\\ell^2}\\le Cm\\norm s_{\\ell^2}.\n\\end{equation}\nExpanding \\eqref{eq:jalpha}, using\n$S_j=\\alpha_j^2(1+\\norm{r_j}^2)$, and applying Cauchy--Schwarz to\n$\\sum |s_j|\\norm{\\varepsilon_{j-1}}$ proves the finite pathwise estimate\n\\begin{equation}\\label{eq:jdet}\n \\sup_{j\\le N}\\left|\\log S_j+\n \\sum_{i\\le j}G_{i-1}\\left[s_i^2+\n 2s_i\\sum_{k=1}^{i-1}q_i^ks_{i-k}\\right]\\right|\n \\le C\\left[m\\sum_{i\\le N}s_i^2+m^2\\right].\n\\end{equation}\nThe logarithm's quadratic remainder is smaller,\n$O(m^2\\sum s_i^2)$. Constants depend on the localization and $q_*$.\nThe seed gives $U_j\\ge U_0$, so a lower bound on $\\ell_h$ supplies the required\nuniform $q_*<1$. Gaussian marginal tails give\n$m=O_{\\mathbb P}(\\sqrt{h\\log(1/h)})$, while the square budget is\n$O_{\\mathbb P}(1)$. This explains the rate in \\eqref{eq:jrate}.\n\n\\subsection{An explicit Gaussian Poisson equation for averaging}\nIt remains to average the lag quadratics despite their dependence on the\ncontroller. Let $\\zeta_j=s_j/\\sqrt h$; its stationary law is independent of\n$h$. For deterministic $q\\in[0,q_*]$, put\n\\[\n B_j(q)=\\sum_{k\\ge1}q^k\\zeta_{j-k},\\quad\n X_j(q)=\\zeta_j^2+2\\zeta_jB_j(q),\\quad\n A_n(q)=h\\sum_{j\\le n}[X_j(q)-\\chi_c(q)].\n\\]\nWe prove the uniform maximal estimate\n\\begin{equation}\\label{eq:jmax}\n \\E\\sup_{n\\le T/h}\\sup_{q\\le q_*}\n (|A_n(q)|^2+|\\partial_q A_n(q)|^2)\\le Ch.\n\\end{equation}\nAn OU interval has an exact independent Gaussian innovation pair\n$(\\epsilon_j,\\iota_j)$ with variances and covariance\n\\[\n v_\\epsilon=\\nu c(1-\\rho^2),\\qquad\n v_\\iota=2\\nu-\\nu(3-4\\rho+\\rho^2)/c,\\qquad\n v_\\times=\\nu(1-\\rho)^2.\n\\]\nWriting $a=(1-\\rho)/c$, its sampled endpoint and pulse satisfy\n$\\xi_j=\\rho\\xi_{j-1}+\\epsilon_j$ and\n$\\zeta_j=a\\xi_{j-1}+\\iota_j$. Consequently the preinterval state\n$Z_j=(\\xi_{j-1},B_j)^T$ is a stationary Gaussian chain\n\\[\n Z_{j+1}=F(q)Z_j+v_j(q),\\qquad\n F(q)=\\begin{pmatrix}\\rho&0\\\\qa&q\\end{pmatrix},\\quad\n v_j(q)=\\binom{\\epsilon_j}{q\\iota_j}.\n\\]\nLet $\\Sigma(q)$ be its stationary covariance and\n$H=\\left(\\begin{smallmatrix}a^2&a\\\\a&0\\end{smallmatrix}\\right)$. Conditioning\non the innovation past $\\mathcal G_{j-1}$ gives\n\\[\n \\E[X_j\\mid\\mathcal G_{j-1}]=Z_j^THZ_j+v_\\iota,\n \\qquad \\chi_c(q)=\\tr(H\\Sigma(q))+v_\\iota.\n\\]\nUniform stability of $F$ supplies the explicit Lyapunov solution\n\\[\n K(q)=\\sum_{r\\ge0}(F(q)^r)^THF(q)^r,\n \\qquad K-F^TKF=H.\n\\]\nDefine the quadratic coboundary and martingale difference\n\\[\n J_j=Z_{j+1}^TKZ_{j+1}-\\tr(K\\Sigma),\\qquad\n D_j=X_j-\\chi_c+J_j-J_{j-1}.\n\\]\nThe Lyapunov identity gives $\\E[D_j\\mid\\mathcal G_{j-1}]=0$ exactly.\nUniform stability bounds $K$ and its first two parameter derivatives.\nThe corresponding derivatives of $B_j$ are stable Gaussian filters with\nuniformly bounded fourth moments. Thus $D_j,J_j$ and their first two\n$q$ derivatives have uniform $L^2$ bounds. Doob bounds the maximal\nmartingale sum by $CN$ in mean square; the coboundary maximum is bounded by\n$\\sum_{j\\le N}\\E|J_j|^2\\le CN$. Multiplication by $h^2$ and the\none-dimensional Sobolev bound in $q$ prove \\eqref{eq:jmax}, also for the first\nderivative by using derivatives through order two. This is a finite-dimensional\nproof of the needed averaging, with no unverified mixing assumption.\n\n\\subsection{Endogenous bounded-variation weights and memory elimination}\nThe exact scalar pulse formulas show, on localization with\n$\\sum s_i^2\\le K$, that\n\\begin{equation}\\label{eq:jbv}\n \\sup_jG_j\\le C_K,\\qquad\n \\operatorname{TV}(G_j)+\\operatorname{TV}(q_j)\\le C_K.\n\\end{equation}\nTheir increments are $O(s_j^2)$, even though $Q$ and the moving frame fluctuate\nat first order. Discrete summation by parts, telescoping $G_jA_j(q_j)$, gives\n\\[\n \\sup_n\\left|h\\sum_{j\\le n}G_{j-1}\n [X_j(q_j)-\\chi_c(q_j)]\\right|\n \\le C_K\\sup_{n,q}(|A_n(q)|+|\\partial_qA_n(q)|).\n\\]\nNo independence of the weights from the OU pulse is needed. The stationary\nfilter uses negative-time strokes only as a proof device; the actual photon\nstarts with $r_0=0$. The difference from its finite startup filter is a\ngeometric boundary term with cumulative $L^2$ size $O(h)$. Equations\n\\eqref{eq:jdet}--\\eqref{eq:jbv} therefore give\n\\[\n \\log S_n=-h\\sum_{j\\le n}G_{j-1}\\chi_c(q_j)\n +O_{\\mathbb P}(\\sqrt{h\\log(1/h)})\n\\]\nuniformly on localization. Finally the exact memory increment is\n\\[\n \\Delta\\log U_j=\\log(1+G_{j-1}s_j^2)\n =G_{j-1}s_j^2+O(s_j^4).\n\\]\nThe same maximal estimate for $\\zeta_j^2-C_0$, with BV weight\n$G_{j-1}\\chi_c(q_j)$, implies\n\\[\n h\\sum_{j\\le n}G_{j-1}\\chi_c(q_j)\n =\\frac1{C_0}\\sum_{j\\le n}\\chi_c(q_j)\\Delta\\log U_j\n +O_{\\mathbb P}(\\sqrt h).\n\\]\nThe remaining monotone-memory Stieltjes sum approximates the integral in\n\\eqref{eq:jrate} with error $O_{\\mathbb P}(h\\log(1/h))$. This proves the rate.\nThe earlier seeded-controller bounds and nonexplosion remove localization\nfor convergence. Equation~\\eqref{eq:jbright} proves amplitude alignment;\nbounded norms upgrade probability convergence to every finite $L^p$.\nThe joint controller convergence to \\eqref{eq:core} then proves\nTheorem~\\ref{thm:joint-loss}. If $\\ell_h\\to\\infty$, $q_h(u)\\to0$ uniformly\nfor $u\\ge U_0$, so any divergent $\\ell_h$ gives the inverse-memory endpoint\nlaw. The stronger earlier dwell/log condition was sufficient, not necessary.\n\nA finite confidence bound is also available. Let $N=\\lfloor T/h\\rfloor$ and\n$m_\\delta=\\sqrt{2C_0h\\log(2N/\\delta)}$. If $m_\\delta$ is below the\nsmall-stroke threshold, then, for any $\\epsilon>0$,\n\\begin{equation}\\label{eq:jconfidence}\n \\mathbb P\\left(\\mathcal C_K\\ \\text{and endpoint log error}>\n C_K(m_\\delta+m_\\delta^2+\\epsilon)\\right)\n \\le\\delta+C_Kh/\\epsilon^2.\n\\end{equation}\nHere $\\mathcal C_K$ denotes the compact/square-budget localization. The Gaussian\nunion bound controls the largest stroke and \\eqref{eq:jmax} controls the\ncentered quadratic terms; startup and Stieltjes errors are included.\n\n\\subsection{Broader covariance law and its precise limits}\nFor general stationary normalized strokes with covariances $C_k$, the same\ngeometric filter has $\\chi(q)=C_0+2\\sum_{k\\ge1}C_kq^k$. If $C_0>0$, the\nuniform quadratic maximal bound \\eqref{eq:jmax} is verified, and the controller\nhas the stated BV bounds and a proved limit $\\dd U=C_0R\\,\\dd t$, then\n\\[\n S(t)=\\exp\\!\\left[-\\frac1{C_0}\\int_{U_0}^{U(t)}\n \\chi(q(u))\\frac{\\dd u}{u}\\right].\n\\]\nThis extension is conditional on quadratic averaging, not merely summable\ncovariance. For example $\\zeta_j=V\\varepsilon_j$, with a nondegenerate fixed\n$V$ independent of iid centered unit-variance $\\varepsilon_j$ and $\\E V^2=1$,\nhas $C_0=1,C_k=0$ but square budget tending to $V^2t$, rather than $t$.\n\nWith spectral measure convention $C_k=\\int e^{ik\\theta}\\,\\dd\\mu(\\theta)$,\n\\[\n \\chi(q)=\\int_{-\\pi}^{\\pi}\n \\frac{1-q^2}{1-2q\\cos\\theta+q^2}\\,\\dd\\mu(\\theta)\\ge0\n \\quad(0\\le q<1).\n\\]\nNegative correlations can give $\\chi(q)<C_0$; OU's exponent interval and loss\nmonotonicity are not universal. A calibrated loss scan measures the local\nslope $-C_0\\,\\dd\\log S/\\dd\\log U=\\chi(q)$, whose analytic coefficients\nrecover $C_k=\\chi^{(k)}(0)/(2k!)$ for $k\\ge1$. This is a model-based covariance\nidentification statement, not quantum-enhanced estimation. The covariance\nsensitivity itself must retain its prior-art credit \\cite{kofman}.\n\nExact OU-interval and exact controller/probe simulations agree with the\nendpoint integral. In a separate 256-path check at $c=1,\\nu=0.2,T=1$,\nquadrupling the grid approximately halves mean uniform log errors; for\n$\\ell=2$, grids $256,1024,4096$ give $0.00882,0.00446,0.00228$.\nIndependent quadrature verifies the endpoint series and the exact $q=0$\ntelescope to numerical precision. These are reproducible finite-grid checks,\nnot measurements or a replacement for the proof. The companion 512-path rate\nscan supplies the report figure.\n\n\n\\subsection{A proved finite-MA comparison: endpoint budgets do not identify the bath}\n\\label{sec:finite-ma}\n\nLet $(\\varepsilon_j)_{j\\in\\mathbb Z}$ be independent standard Gaussians and set\n\\[\n \\alpha=\\frac{\\sqrt{7/5}+\\sqrt{3/5}}2,\\qquad\n \\beta=\\frac{\\sqrt{7/5}-\\sqrt{3/5}}2,\\qquad\n s_j^{(m)}=\\sqrt h\\,(\\alpha\\varepsilon_j+\\beta\\varepsilon_{j-m}),\n \\quad m\\in\\{1,2\\}.\n\\]\nThus $\\alpha^2+\\beta^2=1$, $\\alpha\\beta=1/5$. These are stationary\nfinite-dependent Gaussian strokes, with $C_0=1$, $C_m=1/5$, all other\npositive-lag $C_k=0$, and total Brownian variance $L=7/5$.\n\n\\begin{corollary}[Two baths with identical sequential endpoints]\n\\label{cor:finite-ma}\nFor identical seeded data $U_0>0$, both sources generate the same limiting\nscalar Avenyra diffusion,\n\\begin{equation}\n \\dd U=R\\,\\dd t,\\qquad\n \\dd R=\\frac{RQ^2}{U}\\,\\dd t,\\qquad\n \\dd Q=\\sqrt{7/5}\\,\\dd W-\\frac{RQ}{2U}\\,\\dd t.\n \\label{eq:ma-controller}\n\\end{equation}\nBoth fully projected sequential readouts have survival $U_0/U$, and both\ndiffusion-first then strong-loss readouts have survival $(U_0/U)^{7/5}$.\nNevertheless, for the held post-write loss protocol with\n$\\gamma_hh\\to\\ell>0$ and initially dark photon, their joint limiting\nsurvivals differ:\n\\begin{equation}\n \\chi_m(q)=1+\\frac25q^m,\\qquad\n S_m(t)=\\exp\\!\\left[-\\int_{U_0}^{U(t)}\n \\left(1+\\frac25e^{-m\\ell u/2}\\right)\\frac{\\dd u}{u}\\right].\n \\label{eq:ma-loss}\n\\end{equation}\nConvergence is uniform in probability on finite horizons. Evaluated at the\nsame memory endpoint $U(t)>U_0$, the predictions obey $S_2(U(t))>S_1(U(t))$\nfor $\\ell>0$. The two limiting controllers can be coupled with the same $W$;\nindependent finite runs need not share a realized memory endpoint.\n\\end{corollary}\n\\begin{proof}\nThe cumulative driver is $(\\alpha+\\beta)\\sqrt h\\sum\\varepsilon_j$ plus\nfinitely many endpoint innovations; their uniform maximum is\n$O_p(\\sqrt{h\\log(1/h)})$. Gaussian finite dependence gives an $O(h)$\nvariance for each cumulative square budget, which converges uniformly to\n$t$ by positivity. Moreover $\\E\\sum|s_j|^3=O(\\sqrt h)$.\nThe one-driver flow/Euler pulse limit therefore applies, giving\n\\eqref{eq:ma-controller} with $\\nu=7/10$, $f=5/7$. Its angular quadratic\nvariation is $(7/5)R/U\\,\\dd t$, whereas $\\dd\\log U=R/U\\,\\dd t$;\nthis proves the two sequential endpoints.\n\nThe general lag-filter theorem applies here with verified quadratic\naveraging, rather than by importing the OU hypothesis. Write\n$\\xi_j=s_j/\\sqrt h$ and\n$B_j(q)=\\sum_{k\\ge1}q^k\\xi_{j-k}$. The preinterval Gaussian state\n$Z_j=(\\varepsilon_{j-1},\\ldots,\\varepsilon_{j-m},B_j)^T$ obeys\n\\begin{equation}\n Z_{j+1}=F_m(q)Z_j+v(q)\\varepsilon_j,\\qquad\n F_m(q)=\\begin{pmatrix}N_m&0\\\\q\\beta e_m^T&q\\end{pmatrix},\\qquad\n v(q)=\\binom{e_1}{q\\alpha},\n\\end{equation}\nwhere $N_m$ is the nilpotent lag shift. For\n$X_j=\\xi_j^2+2\\xi_jB_j$,\n$\\E[X_j\\mid\\text{past}]=\\alpha^2+Z_j^THZ_j$, where\n$H_{mm}=\\beta^2$, $H_{m,m+1}=H_{m+1,m}=\\beta$ and other entries vanish.\nWith stationary covariance $\\Sigma(q)$, define\n\\[\n K(q)=\\sum_{r\\ge0}(F_m(q)^r)^THF_m(q)^r,\n \\qquad K-F_m^TKF_m=H.\n\\]\nThe eigenvalues of $F_m$ are zero and $q$. For $q\\le q_*<1$, its powers,\ntheir first two $q$ derivatives, and the Gaussian fourth moments are\nuniformly controlled. The same quadratic Lyapunov corrector,\nmartingale/coboundary decomposition and Sobolev argument used for\n\\eqref{eq:jmax} therefore prove that maximal bound for these sources.\nThe existing geometric bright-filter and endogenous BV-weight estimates\nnow give \\eqref{eq:ma-loss}. Its strict inequality follows from $q^2<q$.\n\\end{proof}\n\nThe comparison concerns retained continuum controller laws and the two\nsequential readout endpoints; resolved pulse records distinguish the baths.\nIt requires the seeded held protocol and positive joint loss scaling.\nIt does not cover arbitrary zero-loss scaling, loss overlapping a write,\nor nonstationary preparation. Covariance-weighted optical attenuation has\nestablished ancestry \\cite{kofman}; this corollary supplies an exact\nendogenous-memory example of what the two endpoint budgets fail to identify.\n\n\n\\subsection{Independent joint-scaling simulation}\nThe lead-agent calculation uses exact integrated OU strokes and exact\nheld-stage amplitude contraction, with 512 paths per grid and\n$c=1,\\nu=0.3,T=1$, seeded $x_0=(1,0.4,0.2)$ and $b_0=(0,0,1)$.\nHere $\\gamma_h=\\ell/h$; changing the grid holds the loss per dwell fixed.\nAn independent adaptive quadrature checks the accumulated endpoint integral.\n\\begin{center}\n\\begin{tabular}{rrrr}\n\\toprule $\\ell$ & MAE at 1,024 strokes & MAE at 4,096 & MAE at 16,384\\\\\\midrule\n0.05 & 0.067219 & 0.034328 & 0.017923\\\\\n0.2 & 0.033082 & 0.015366 & 0.007955\\\\\n1 & 0.008831 & 0.004363 & 0.002106\\\\\n4 & 0.000835 & 0.000447 & 0.000212\\\\\n16 & $1.152\\times10^{-6}$ & $6.060\\times10^{-7}$ & $3.063\\times10^{-7}$\\\\\\bottomrule\n\\end{tabular}\n\\end{center}\nMAE is mean pathwise absolute survival error against that path's endpoint\nprediction, rather than an error of the ensemble mean.

Endpoint-dependent permission, a supplied orientation,\nnonlinear writes, another energy or another timing convention permit\nalternatives. Equating this memory norm with physical stored energy still\nrequires a device realization and a separate controller-work account.\n\n\\subsection{A conditional magnetic Poisson and quantum obstruction}\nIn three dimensions write $Av=v\\times b$. A continuous legal direction is\nparallel to $b$; an unnormalized flow is\n\\begin{equation}\n \\dot x=b,\\qquad\\dot b=x\\times b.\n \\label{eq:intrinsic3dflow}\n\\end{equation}\nSuppose one interprets $x$ as commuting canonical positions and $b$ as\nunit-mass mechanical momenta on this same six-dimensional state space:\n$\\{x_i,x_j\\}=0$, $\\{x_i,b_j\\}=\\delta_{ij}$.\nJacobi for $(x_i,b_j,b_k)$ forces $\\{b_j,b_k\\}$ to be independent of $b$.\nWrite $\\{b_i,b_j\\}=\\epsilon_{ijk}B_k(x)$. The position equation forces\n$H=\\norm b^2/2+V(x)$; the momentum equation at $b=0$ forces $V$ constant.\nThen $\\dot b=b\\times B$, and equality with \\eqref{eq:intrinsic3dflow} for\nevery $b$ uniquely requires $B=-x$. But its Jacobiator is\n\\begin{equation}\n \\{b_1,\\{b_2,b_3\\}\\}+\\text{cyclic}\n =-\\nabla\\cdot B=3\\ne0.\n\\end{equation}\nThus this canonical position/mechanical-momentum interpretation is not a\nPoisson system. The normalized flow has the same obstruction with\n$H=\\norm b$. This is an instance of the established magnetic charge/Jacobi\nproblem, not a new magnetic force \\cite{szabo}.\n\nThe corresponding proposed quantum relations are\n\\[\n [x_i,x_j]=0,\\quad[x_i,b_j]=i\\hbar\\delta_{ij},\\quad\n [b_i,b_j]=-i\\hbar\\epsilon_{ijk}x_k.\n\\]\nOn any common invariant domain they give\n$[b_1,[b_2,b_3]]+\\text{cyclic}=-3\\hbar^2I\\ne0$, contrary to the exact\nJacobi identity for commutators in an associative operator algebra.\nThese particular canonical relations consequently cannot define standard\nquantum observables. The obstruction does not prohibit controlled fields,\nadditional variables, or different noncanonical physical identifications.\n\n\\subsection{Why an auxiliary action is not a fundamental derivation}\nIndeed, the cotangent lift gives an ordinary canonical Hamiltonian on a\ndoubled state space:\n\\begin{equation}\n \\mathcal H=\\pi_x\\cdot b+\\pi_b\\cdot(x\\times b),\\qquad\n \\mathcal S=\\int\\bigl(\\pi_x\\cdot\\dot x+\\pi_b\\cdot\\dot b\n -\\mathcal H\\bigr)\\,\\dd t.\n\\end{equation}\nIts equations reproduce \\eqref{eq:intrinsic3dflow} exactly and also give\n$\\dot\\pi_x=\\pi_b\\times b$ and\n$\\dot\\pi_b=-\\pi_x-\\pi_b\\times x$.\nMore generally, any smooth chosen vector field $X$ on a regular state\nmanifold has the intrinsic cotangent Hamiltonian $\\mathcal H=\\langle\\pi,X\\rangle$.\nThis is a formal realization with auxiliary resources and an energy\nunbounded in the auxiliary momenta. It does not choose the gate or supply\na stable microscopic energy, reservoir or finite sampling clock.\nThe honest conclusion is that coordinate-independent geometry is available\nand a conventional magnetic identification is obstructed; a fundamental\nvariational physics theory requires additional physical content.\n\n\n","labels":["sec:intrinsicgeometry","eq:bundlepulse","eq:antidevelopment","eq:curvaturecertificate","eq:intrinsic3dflow"],"source_line_start":2709,"source_line_end":2917,"context_requirement":"Read with integrated manuscript preamble, definitions and adjacent referenced sections; fragments are not standalone TeX documents.","evidence_kind":"source_authored_research_text","source_file":"research/Avenyra_Geometric_Memory_Physics.tex"}

The survival telescope residual is below\n$4.3\\times10^{-14}$ over those histories.\n\nThe OU normalized stroke budgets are listed below; standard errors come from\nthe 1,024-path finite-stroke ensemble and are estimates.\n\\begin{center}\n\\begin{tabular}{rrrr}\n\\toprule $c=h/\\tau$ & Predicted $f(c)$ & Simulated mean & Standard error\\\\\\midrule\n0.05 & 0.0245885 & 0.0246458 & 0.0000556\\\\\n0.2 & 0.0936538 & 0.0933956 & 0.0001086\\\\\n1 & 0.3678794 & 0.3681172 & 0.0002413\\\\\n5 & 0.8013476 & 0.8014431 & 0.0003986\\\\\n20 & 0.9500000 & 0.9503123 & 0.0004654\\\\\\bottomrule\n\\end{tabular}\n\\end{center}\nThese checks support the finite stochastic implementation; they are not a\nsubstitute for the convergence proof or physical measurements. Additional\nmultistage finite-dwell checks, recorded in the cross-audit note, include 250\nrandom histories and 100 exact-sequence interference tests without violations\nof the stated error bound.\n\nVersion 2 adds 264 exact rational ridge pulses and 4,000 finite-error stress\ncases; 36 exact transport cases, 36 polynomial resolvent cases and 52 exact\nrank-saturation cases; and 105 exact finite-seed classification/budget cases.\nThe finite-rate suite checks 100 main sextic commands, 100 supplementary\nquartic commands and 100 loop-area quadratures. Main endpoint/current residuals\nare below $5.77\\times10^{-11}$; finite loop-quadrature error is below\n$1.82\\times10^{-7}$. A known-optics benchmark checks 2,048 Brownian-angle\npaths at 16,384 steps, and a separate colored controller/probe simulation uses\n512 paths at 16,384 strokes.\n\nIn that colored simulation ($c=1,f=e^{-1},\\nu=0.3,T=1$), mean resolved\nsurvival is $0.792445$ and the mean diffusion-first target is $0.531379$.\nFinite-loss means at $\\gamma=4,16,64,256$ are respectively\n$0.648721,0.565581,0.537742,0.534445$. At the last rate, standard error is\n$0.001799$ and mean pathwise absolute discrepancy is $0.030475$. These are\nfinite-grid estimates, with sampling and resolution error, not measurements.\nThe finite projection telescope residual is below $1.32\\times10^{-13}$.\nA separate origin suite checks 6,797 numerical Foster fixtures with no\ninequality violations and 337 independent finite-difference generator\nfixtures (maximum normalized residual $1.56\\times10^{-6}$). These supplement\nthe analytic proof; they neither simulate stationarity nor estimate $c_*$.\n\n\nVersion 3 adds independent checks whose fixture and comparison counts are\nkept distinct. The spectral suite passes 256 rational full-skew fixtures,\n1,024 exact polynomial and 768 exact ridge transport identities. It includes\n128 rank-birth and 64 repeated-frequency fixtures within that total.\nIts 3,072 rotated numerical pulse fixtures pass 13,747 tail and 18,432 power\ncomparisons, with minimum normalized tail slack\n$-1.44\\times10^{-15}$ consistent with roundoff. Exact threshold jump values\nare covered by the analytic proof rather than numerical interval-midpoint tests.\n\nThe tomography suite passes 33 exact reconstruction fixtures, 50 common-factor\nupper-bound cases, 164 exact Jacobian ranks, 165 certificate evaluations and\n54 covariance identities. It includes invisible-mode and different-kernel\ncounterexamples. An independent geometry suite passes 72 rational skew\nfixtures at 288 resolution points, 45 exact passivity minimizations and\n7,800 cone comparisons on 300 legal numerical pulses. For 200 legal\nthree-sphere transport histories, the largest displacement-error ratio to\n$KL^3$ is $0.00681$. These finite fixtures verify implementations and\ncounterexamples, not the theorem for every curved manifold.\n\nTwo independently implemented exact OU/controller/probe simulations test\nthe positive joint limit: the 256-path uniform-log check and the 512-path\nsurvival rate scan in Section~\\ref{sec:joint-loss}.
