Finite Horizon Kernel Recurrence
Abstract
Finite-horizon behavior kernels descend by one new coordinate, intersect to the complete kernel, and stabilize at the finite completion depth.
Theorem 1.1 (Finite Horizon Kernel Succ iff).
Proof. Machine-checked in Lean as D5/S3/ObserverMemory/RefinementClosure/FiniteHorizonKernelRecurrence.finite_horizon_kernel_succ_iff (✓ std3). ∎
Source. Repository-derived.
Commentary.
Adding one horizon coordinate intersects the previous kernel with equality of the new terminal observation.
The declaration keeps its parameters and hypotheses explicit; the result makes no converse or broader existence claim beyond that scope.
Theorem 1.2 (Finite Horizon Kernel Antitone).
Proof. Machine-checked in Lean as D5/S3/ObserverMemory/RefinementClosure/FiniteHorizonKernelRecurrence.finite_horizon_kernel_antitone (✓ std3). ∎
Source. Repository-derived.
Commentary.
Longer observation horizons yield finer kernels.
The declaration keeps its parameters and hypotheses explicit; the result makes no converse or broader existence claim beyond that scope.
Theorem 1.3 (Complete Kernel eq I Inf Finite Horizon).
Proof. Machine-checked in Lean as D5/S3/ObserverMemory/RefinementClosure/FiniteHorizonKernelRecurrence.complete_kernel_eq_iInf_finite_horizon (✓ std3). ∎
Source. Repository-derived.
Commentary.
The complete behavior kernel is the infimum of all finite-horizon kernels.
The declaration keeps its parameters and hypotheses explicit; the result makes no converse or broader existence claim beyond that scope.
Theorem 1.4 (Finite Horizon First New Coordinate Strict).
Proof. Machine-checked in Lean as D5/S3/ObserverMemory/RefinementClosure/FiniteHorizonKernelRecurrence.finite_horizon_first_new_coordinate_strict (✓ std3). ∎
Source. Repository-derived.
Commentary.
A first separating terminal coordinate certifies strict refinement at the next finite horizon.
The declaration keeps its parameters and hypotheses explicit; the result makes no converse or broader existence claim beyond that scope.
Theorem 1.5 (Finite Horizon Stabilizes At Completion Depth).
Proof. Machine-checked in Lean as D5/S3/ObserverMemory/RefinementClosure/FiniteHorizonKernelRecurrence.finite_horizon_stabilizes_at_completionDepth (✓ std3). ∎
Source. Repository-derived.
Commentary.
On a finite state space, the canonical completion depth already has the complete infinite-horizon kernel.
The declaration keeps its parameters and hypotheses explicit; the result makes no converse or broader existence claim beyond that scope.
