Q28 items 3 and 4b: the projective preparation density ρ_ep, and overlapping preparations #
Category: 7-SigmaLayer (BACKLOG Q28, specs/c2-support-plan.md items 3 and 4).
This module is deliberately the FIRST file that speaks both preparation
interfaces at once — SigmaLayer.Preparation (region preparations and their
conditional measures) and the projective measure bridge (the pushforward of the
Liouville measure being a multiple of the Fubini–Study measure). C2 v1.01 tore
exactly at that unspoken seam; this module is the seam, spoken.

⚠️ Scope: the witness is the topological existence form. The quantified
"ε-balls around any two states closer than 2ε" form needs a metric on ℙ,
which neither Mathlib nor this corpus has (MATHLIB-GAPS.md, Fubini–Study
metric row).

Item 3 — the projective preparation density ρ_ep #
The conditional law of a region preparation is absolutely continuous with respect to the Liouville measure: a Liouville-null set stays null after conditioning on the region.
★ The projective preparation law is absolutely continuous w.r.t. the
Fubini–Study measure, under a measure bridge π_* muL = c • μFS. Note no
c ≠ 0 is needed for this direction: c • μFS ≪ μFS for every c.
ρ_ep — the projective preparation density: the Radon–Nikodym derivative of the projective preparation law against the reference measure.
Equations
- Q.preparationDensity P μFS = (Q.projectivePreparationLaw P).rnDeriv μFS
Instances For
★ The projective preparation law IS a density against μFS (Q28 item
3): π_* muH = μFS.withDensity ρ_ep. The missing rung between LF1's region
typicality and the projective weights, delivered by Radon–Nikodym.
The Kähler seam at c = 1 #
The base projection of the Kähler arena Σ = ℂℙ^{N-1} × T², as a
ProjectiveSector for any dynamics on the arena.
Equations
- CSD.SigmaLayer.kahlerFstSector D = { pi := Prod.fst, measurable_pi := ⋯ }
Instances For
The Kähler bridge constant is exactly 1: the base pushforward of the
Liouville measure kMuL = μFS ⊗ vol_{T²} is the Fubini–Study measure.
★★ ρ_ep on the Kähler arena (the seam corollary, Q28 item 3): for any
dynamics carrying the Liouville measure and any region preparation, the
projective preparation law is absolutely continuous against THE Fubini–Study
measure and equals μFS.withDensity ρ_ep. The first statement in the corpus
connecting SigmaLayer.Preparation to the LF4 measure bridge.
★ Single fibres are Liouville-null (via Q28 item 1's atomlessness).
Single projective fibres are kMuL-null, so an exact fibre-supported sharp preparation
cannot be obtained by conditioning kMuL on a positive-volume region. Singular exact
preparations remain a separate admissible preparation interface — see
RecordLayer.no_region_preparation_exact_fibre for this stated as the disjointness of the
two classes, and RecordLayer.sharp_preparations_mutuallySingular for that interface's
Harrigan–Spekkens classification.
⚠️ Commentary corrected 2026-08-25. This read "the physical story is the region one", which wrongly implied exact sharp measures are illegitimate. They are not; they are singular rather than absolutely continuous, which is a different thing.
Item 4b — overlapping preparations on the Kähler arena #
A region preparation carved from a projective open set: the region is the
full preimage of a nonempty open V ⊆ ℂℙ^{N-1} under the base projection,
with positive Liouville measure by the full support of μFS.
Equations
Instances For
★★ The finite-resolution preparation-overlap witness (Q28 item 4b): two
preparations, each localised on an open neighbourhood of its own ray, with overlapping
neighbourhoods, have conditional measures that are NOT mutually singular. For distinct
rays x ≠ y this is the statement that distinct quantum states can be knowledge about
overlapping ontic situations — at the level of finite-resolution, region-based
preparations.
⚠️ Scope corrected 2026-08-25. This was labelled "the ψ-epistemic overlap witness".
Region-preparation overlap does NOT establish Harrigan–Spekkens ψ-epistemicity of exact
pure states: that classification is about the exact sharp interface, where the corpus
proves ψ-onticity (RecordLayer.sharp_preparations_mutuallySingular). Two different
preparation classes, two different claims, both true.
