LF3 Projectors / SectorVolume: operator-form sector volume and bounds #
Category: 3-Local (LF3 operator-form sector volume Re ⟨Ψ, M_{st} Ψ⟩ and strong-readout / finite-leakage bounds).
Paper §5.10 / §9.7. (Renamed from BranchWeight in Phase 11, 2026-05-18,
to align with the volume-ratios reading: each w_{st}(Ψ) = Re ⟨Ψ, M_{st} Ψ⟩
is the volume of the post-measurement state on the (s, t) eigensector, a
volume in projective amplitude space — not an Everettian branch count.)
Defines the operator-form sector volume w_{st}(Ψ) = Re ⟨Ψ, M_{st} Ψ⟩ and
proves two quantitative results against the squared amplitude ‖cAmp s t‖²:
sectorVolume_strong_readout: exact equality in the strong-readout limit (zero leakage); both sector states and pointer-sector projectors match cleanly through theStrongReadoutCompatstructural compatibility data.sectorVolume_finite_leakage: anεA + εB + εA·εBbound parameterised by aLeakageCompatquantitative compatibility datum.
Both theorems take a structural-compatibility hypothesis linking the
projector algebra P to the sector states produced by M. In a future v2
with a concrete tensor decomposition of H_SA, the compatibility data would
be derivable from the decomposition; in v1.00 it is taken as data, mirroring
the design pattern used for ProjectorAlgebra and MeasurementUnitary.
Strong-readout structural compatibility (paper §5 / spec §9.7).
Connects the abstract pointer-sector projectors mHat P s t to the branch
states produced by the measurement unitary M. In a future v2 derived from
a concrete tensor decomposition; in v1.00 taken as data.
Branch states are unit-norm.
- sectorOrth (s t s' t' : Sign) : (s, t) ≠ (s', t') → inner ℂ (sectorState M s t φA0 φB0) (sectorState M s' t' φA0 φB0) = 0
Distinct sector states are pairwise orthogonal under the inner product.
mHat P s tpreserves the matching sector state.mHat P s tannihilates sector states with mismatched labels.

Strong-readout branch weight (paper §5.10) #
Applying mHat P s t to the four-term branch sum collapses to the single
matching branch term, given strong-readout compatibility.
Inner product of finalState with a single sector state collapses to the
matching complex-conjugate amplitude, by orthogonality of sector states
and unit-norm normalisation.
Strong-readout limit (paper §5.10): the branch weight is exactly the
Born probability of the singlet amplitude. Both compatibility data and
the explicit Ψ_T := finalState M cAmp φA0 φB0 substitution come in
explicitly; the proof reduces to ‖cAmp s t‖² = z * conj z via the
branch-orthogonality and pointer-diagonality fields.
Finite-leakage branch weight (paper §5.11) #
Quantitative leakage compatibility (paper §5.11 / spec §9.7).
Bounds the deviation of the branch weight from ‖cAmp s t‖² in absolute
terms by εA + εB + εA·εB. The per-side leakage parameters and the bound
itself enter as fields; the underlying Cauchy–Schwarz / per-sector overlap
argument is packaged here as a v1.00 structural-data interface (spec §9.7
/ §9.11), to be derived in v2 from a concrete tensor decomposition.
V ≈ 1 − I disclosure. εA and εB are stipulated stability parameters,
not derived from any physical isolation quantity I. The bound
εA + εB + εA·εB matches the V ≈ 1 − I phenomenology to leading order, but
the link from the per-side leakages to an underlying isolation parameter is
not formalised in this v1.00 module. Carries the V ≈ 1 − I structural debt
explicitly: the leakage Compat is honest as a stability statement (any caller
supplying εA, εB and discharging sectorVolume_dev obtains the bound), but
deriving εA, εB from first principles is open and not currently scheduled
in the Lean tree.
- εA : ℝ
A-wing leakage parameter.

The A-wing leakage parameter is non-negative.
The B-wing leakage parameter is non-negative.

Caller-supplied bound (data field, not a derivation). The quantitative deviation of the branch weight from
‖cAmp s t‖², bounded byεA + εB + εA·εBfor every(s, t). This field packages the per-sector Cauchy-Schwarz / overlap argument as a v1.00 structural interface (spec §9.7 / §9.11); the bound is not derived inside this module. A v2 (and concretely a v2 with a Kähler-instantiatedSectorData) will derive it from a concrete tensor decomposition and turn this field into a proved lemma.
Instances For
Finite-leakage bound (paper §5.11): the branch weight deviates from the
Born probability by at most εA + εB + εA·εB. v1.00 packages the
Cauchy–Schwarz / per-sector overlap argument as a field of LeakageCompat
(spec §9.7 / §9.11 / §10.3); a future v2 derives it from a concrete tensor
decomposition.
