Gramian Behavior-Quotient Metric

Abstract

The observability Gramian metrizes the complete future-behavior quotient.

Theorem 1.1 (Gramian zero distance is complete behavioral equivalence).

Proof. Machine-checked in Lean as D5/S3/Observer/Linear/GramianBehaviorQuotientMetric.gramian_behavior_quotient_metric (✓ std3). ∎

Source. Repository-derived.

Commentary.

The evolution, readout, and discounted observability Gramian are the canonical imported linear-observer primitives.

For any two states, equality of every future readout is equivalent to zero real Gramian quadratic form on their difference. Thus the Gramian supplies a quadratic metric on the behavioral quotient.
