Commentary.
The bounded update A and readout C act on complete inner-product spaces over a real or complex scalar field. The conservation law A* A + C* C = I is the source premise.
The finite Gramian is the explicit sum of the adjoint readout terms for k below N. The first public clause telescopes this sum against the N-step state operator.
The second clause states operator positivity, including symmetry and nonnegativity of every quadratic form. The third clause gives the corresponding finite state norm-energy balance.
Repository and pinned-library searches found no packaged theorem with all three clauses. The proof applies the adjoint-power law, finite sum telescoping, and adjoint inner-product identities directly.
