Finite Sequential Word Certificate

Abstract

Complete centered sequential word effects admit dimension-bounded finite certificates.

Theorem 1.1 (Complete finite words have dimension-bounded certificates).

Proof. Machine-checked in Lean as D5/S3/Quantum/PredictionDepth/FiniteSequentialWordCertificate.finite_sequential_word_certificate (✓ std3). ∎

Commentary.

Each word acts on the identity Hermitian effect through the imported sequentialWordEffect construction. The imported centeredEffect operation removes its scalar trace component on the exact real trace-zero Hermitian carrier.

If the centered effects of all finite words span that carrier, finite-dimensional basis extraction selects a concrete finite word set with at most d squared minus one members and the same span.

For the depth clause, the uncentered bounded-word spans start with the identity line. Once two consecutive stages agree, prefix closure under every instrument generator makes that equality permanent. Their rank can therefore grow strictly at most d squared minus one times, after which canonical centering gives the full bounded centered span.
