Record Classicality Fixed Point

Abstract

Unread record fixed points are exactly the matrices with no cross-record blocks.

Theorem 1.1 (Record classicality is the unread fixed-point condition).

Proof. Machine-checked in Lean as D5/S3/Observer/Conditioning/RecordClassicalityFixedPoint.record_classicality_fixed_point (✓ std3). ∎

Source. Repository-derived.

Commentary.

Let P be a finite complete family of pairwise orthogonal, self-adjoint idempotent complex projections. The unread record map sums the diagonal compressions P_k rho P_k.

The formal theorem directly applies the canonical unread-state fixed-point characterization. It retains both directions: a fixed matrix has every cross-record block equal to zero, and vanishing cross-record blocks reconstruct the fixed matrix by projection completeness.
