Off-Line Scaling Ledger Growth

Abstract

Off-line nonempty ledger entries share a sign and grow unbounded under scaling.

Theorem 1.1 (Off-line nonempty ledgers have one sign and unbounded multiples).

Proof. Machine-checked in Lean as D5/S3/Midline/OffLineScaling.off_line_scaling_ledger_growth (✓ std3). ∎

Source. Repository-derived.

Commentary.

For an additive ledger length and a spectral parameter off the critical line, every positive-length entry is nonzero, any two positive-length entries have the same sign, natural scaling multiplies each entry by the same natural number, and the absolute values along those multiples are unbounded. This is a coordinatewise fact only, not a claim about the sum after analytic continuation; cancellation of that sum is treated separately.
