Local controls and fixed interactions
4 Local controls and fixed interactions
Local scalar controls initially give annihilators in each particle block. By lemma 3.2, the assignment is covariant under independent compactly supported coordinate flows on the particles. We now use that covariance to expose the interaction.
For an edge , and compactly supported one-body diffeomorphisms generated by flows on particles , respectively, the function
belongs to . In particular, for ,
Set , using the block half-density action, and similarly for . Covariance (3.7) transfers the statistical evolution identity for to . To see precisely which current is transferred, a real half-density coordinate conjugation of has the form
Its current is . Explicitly, if denotes the conjugated velocity, then
The Jacobian half-density factor is real and hence contributes no imaginary phase gradient. Changing variables in the continuity equation transfers the assigned-density identity with this same velocity. Only the metric in the transformed particle block changes.
The operator difference
therefore has zero kinetic part. All one-body terms cancel. All pair terms except cancel as well, leaving exactly multiplication by (4.1). The same mixed difference of the four currents is zero, block by block. Subtracting the four transferred statistical identities gives .
Take , , divide by , and let . The limit is (4.2). The mixed differences and their derivatives have common compact support in the two active blocks; the other coordinates are spectators only in this multiplier estimate. Taylor's formula gives convergence on every Schwartz tangent vector. Thus (3.2) applies.
□If (2.2) holds, every real function in , viewed as a multiplier in the edge variables, belongs to .
Some component is nonzero on a product of sufficiently small balls . Taking in (4.2) gives . For compactly supported inside that product, is smooth there. Finite sums of separated compact functions approximate it in , with common compact support. For example, extend it to a box, approximate its smooth periodic extension by Fourier partial sums, and multiply by fixed cutoffs in the two variables. Multiplication by and (3.2) give .
Annihilator identities are invariant under pullback by the one-body coordinate transports: differentiate (3.7) along a phase variation. Independent compact diffeomorphisms can move any sufficiently small pair of balls to this nonvanishing product. Pullback therefore gives all compact multipliers in every such product cell. A finite partition of unity on the support of a target function proves the result globally.
□The remaining step combines overlapping edge variables. We include the elementary local factorization that makes this step exact.
On a Euclidean open set, every real compact smooth function is a finite sum of terms , with compactly supported in that open set.
A finite partition reduces the question to a small box with room to spare in a larger box. Write its coordinates as , let , and choose a unit-integral bump in a spare interval disjoint from the -projection of . Then
is compactly supported. Choose a compact function whose derivative is one on the projection of , zero on , and has its compensating integral in another spare interval. Let be one near the transverse support of and put . Transverse derivative products vanish, whereas . All supports fit in the larger box. Summation proves the lemma.
□Under the hypotheses of theorem 2.1,
Induct along a spanning tree. One-body and edge multipliers are available. Suppose all compact multipliers on a connected collection of particle blocks are available, and attach a new particle by an edge at . For compact one-body factors , apply lemma 4.3 to the desired factor on block , writing . Then
Only the shared block contributes. The two inputs are available by induction and edge saturation, so lemma 3.1 gives the desired separated product after summation. Separated compact functions are -dense, with common blockwise compact supports, in compact functions on these blocks, by the Fourier-cutoff argument in lemma 4.2. This is convergence after multiplication by each fixed Schwartz state, including spectator variables. Thus (3.2) completes the induction.
□Use proposition 4.4, proposition 3.3 in dimension . For , one-body controls already give full scalar saturation. lemma A.1 below supplies normalized nowhere-zero approximations; A4 and (2.4) then extend the equality of measures to every state. Undoing mass scaling gives (1.1).
□The proof has generated identities for a statistical functional, including identities associated with joint multipliers. None of the mixed conjugations, brackets, or density limits is a claim that an additional joint potential has been physically implemented. Only the controls quantified in (2.3) are physical inputs.
