Finite-Distance Invariant Sectors

Abstract

Finite observer distance forces equal evaluation on every bounded invariant observable.

Theorem 1.1 (Finite-distance points share an invariant sector).

Proof. Machine-checked in Lean as D5/S3/Observer/Separation/FiniteDistanceInvariantSector.finite_distance_same_invariant_sector (✓ std3). ∎

Source. Repository-derived.

Commentary.

Let tau be a permutation and let x and y have finite extended observer distance. Then every bounded complex observable with zero update defect takes the same value at x and y.

If such an observable separated the points, the frozen invariant-separation theorem would force their observer distance to be infinity, contrary to finiteness. Equality on every invariant observable is precisely the fiber condition for the restriction-by-evaluation map.

Repository and pinned-Mathlib searches found no existing finite-distance fiber theorem. The proof imports and directly applies the repository’s general invariant-separation theorem by contrapositive. Loogle found no exact upstream match.
