Finite stress, scaling maps and shell charges

Shadow Theory and the Wilson Yang–Mills Construction: A Source–Readout Reconstruction

Finite stress, scaling maps and shell charges

Actual finite stress, followed by geometric station selection. The stress and current begin as functions on finite group configurations. Their Ward identity, Haar-Jacobian terms and quiet-loop localization are computed there before extraction. Rooted estimates, then the full-support phase argument, transfer these finite readings to the required characters. A single calibration matrix must work for the three panels and their joint higher-arity suppliers; centering removes the unit direction before the relevant rank assertion is used.

The station-selection equation is geometric: s = ρk(b + u). It chooses a station at a requested physical radius. The actual interacting and Gaussian moments retain the IG3 comparison error at that station. Consequently the exact equality of radii and the limiting equality of moment readings have different logical roles. The physical conserved stress is then identified on the same quotient and with the same shell-charge normalization. Flux representability is proved with the actual geometry and faces; a coefficient rank count alone would not recover the ordinary face flux.

23.1 The finite trace candidate, its equation identity and its compensation

The local current and stress entering this chapter are finite configuration functions. For a base site o, let Cab(o, U) = curv(Ua(o)Ub(o + ea)Ua(o + eb)−1Ub(o)−1).

The curvature map is the real color projection specified in the startup construction, so this expression is defined on every group configuration. Gauge transformations act by the adjoint at o. Define a link-valued current and a scalar tensor by

(Yb(o, U))(x,i) = 1{x=o}Cbi(o, U),
Jab(o, U) = 1

Color coordinates are converted back to the actual link-coordinate space by the fixed color isometry. At the identity every C vanishes. Its derivative in a logarithmic link direction A is precisely

cab(o, A) = Aa(o) + Ab(o + ea) −Aa(o + eb) −Ab(o).

cab(o, A) = Aa(o) + Ab(o + ea) −Aa(o + eb) −Ab(o).

Thus Y (1) = 0; J(1) = 0 and DJ(1) = 0. Its Hessian is obtained by replacing a product ⟨C, C′⟩ by ⟨c(A), c′(B)⟩+ ⟨c(B), c′(A)⟩. These formulas supply the actual quadratic jets, rather than an unspecified continuum stress approximation. Initially J is symmetric and has identically zero trace.

The divergence used for the finite Taylor calculation is the fixed high-order antisymmetric stencil

Here ∇is the unit forward difference, and the last equivalence includes orders zero through four at the identity. Initially Q = Ξ = 0, and E is defined as the difference on the last line, so that it is an equality. The Hessian of P is the retained covariant quadratic form; differentiating DY P, using Y (1) = DP(1) = 0, gives its two cross Hessian pairings. The local analytic change of variables preserves these four jets by the chain rule. The scalar rows J, E, Q, Ξ remain analytic, gauge invariant, and zero through order one.

To see why the identities persist under blocking, denote the main averaging stencil by M, the directional flux stencil by Fa, and its correction by Ta. Their finite coefficient identities are

Fa = M + ∇aTa,
L5MDa = DaL4Fa.

Searchable transcription
Fa = M + ∇aTa,
L5MDa = DaL4Fa.

Pull each fine scalar function back along the stationary section. Transport Jab with L4Fa, Eb, Yb with L5M, and the difference potentials with their degree-three edge stencils. Add L4TaJaa to the transported Qa, and add 1{i=a}L4TaJab −1{i=b}L4TbJba to the transported Ξabi. Substitution proves all three identities in (TF0c); the two added terms cancel precisely the change from the main stencil to the flux stencils. The current is transported by the derivative of the stationary section, so the chain rule also preserves the last identity. No exact symmetry or zero trace of each blocked local representative is presumed.

Localization is performed on the scalar and current functions themselves: gauge fix along the
prescribed finite axial paths, discard coordinates beyond the chosen radius, and retain the Taylor
polynomial through order four in those local coordinates. Denote the localized tensor by Jloc, and
localize Q, Ξ by the same operation. Restore its exact trace and its six antisymmetric divergences

error is at most A. Summing the four directions gives four times this allowance. Support and anchor weights are enlarged by four at this step. The corresponding derivative and tail allowances are summed with the same absolute coefficients. Exponential path decay pays the discarded tails including their first moments; the stationary four-jet identity pays the local Taylor difference. These are the separate errors retained when the localized divergence is issued as a degree-five insertion.

Finally average the scalar tensor and its divergence over signed permutations and conjugation, with weight 1/|Signed×{0, 1}|, multiplying each component by its tensor or vector sign. Reindexing this finite average proves reality and the required signed covariance. The vector average kills the identity-configuration constants: the axis reflection reverses the vector sign and pairs identical constants. It does not increase a common rooted bound, because the sum of the absolute averaging weights is one, every transformed chamber has the same rooted seminorm, and the rooted triangle inequality applies. Transport commutes with the same transformations. Thus the issued vector and tensor have the correct exact finite symmetries before any coefficient limit is taken.

We first specify the finite objects whose limits enter the trace argument. This prevents a formal Taylor coefficient from being confused with a continuum insertion. At a fixed finite representative let Yb be its rooted infinitesimal link-current vector field, DY f the directional derivative of a configuration function along its left logarithmic link increments, and divν Y its divergence for product Haar measure. In exponential coordinates this divergence includes both the ordinary coordinate divergence and the derivative of the logarithm of the Haar density. Write PA for a finite partial sum of the classical action, LQ for a finite partial sum of the ordinary logarithmic corrections, and EA,Q = −βPA −LQ, Rb = β(Bb −DYbPA). (TF1)

Here Bb is the rooted lattice stress expression, with the same mean and curvature rows as in the finite stress construction. The finite sums are taken from the actual source dictionaries, rather than from new representatives of their limiting functions.

The protected configuration change along Yb, with step u > 0, gives a finite difference identity. If Cu,b denotes the resulting density-difference expression, its exact decomposition on the protected healthy region is Cu,b

The constant denoted by evaluation at 1 is evaluated at the identity configuration. The fourth term is the finite Taylor remainder of the changed action and Jacobian after subtracting their first directional terms, divided by u. The last sum is the finite correction for the chosen finite shelves of activity terms: each summand is the corresponding changed activity difference with the coefficient and the factor u−1 dictated by that difference. Thus (TF3) defines a literal configuration function. To prove (TF2), expand the change of density, distribute DY (−βPA−LQ), and use (TF1); the βDY PA terms cancel. Splitting the activity change into the finite retained shelves and their remainder gives exactly the last sum. This is an algebraic equality before any limit or expectation is taken.

The correction shelves can be enlarged to approximate the full changed expression uniformly on configurations. The estimates for rooted activity sums above give nonnegative numbers gγ with each summand regular on its actual support Pγ, and

(TF4)

The finite four-term part of (TF3) is regular on the common neighborhood and has derivative allowance 2csmall + 2cloop. The sum in (TF4) is included with its own supports, not paid as if every term had the largest common support.

The conversion of a regular function f into a coefficient insertion is particularly explicit. Let Π≤5f be its Taylor polynomial along the local analytic section at the identity, projected to the degree-five frame, and weight its homogeneous components with the prescribed threshold powers. Call the resulting coefficient a(f). Choose the primary local section s(a(f)), and put the masked difference f −s(a(f)) into one regular activity slot, with every other slot zero. The resulting formatted insertion equals f on the protected region, has zero extra scalar term, and retains locality and symmetry. If rread is the norm of the finite Taylor reading map and rsect the norm of this section construction, a bound c for the original section gives the two respective bills

mass(P)c(rread + rsect), mass(P)c((1 + csect)rread + rsect). (TF5)

These are finite-dimensional operator bounds and the ordinary triangle inequality for f −s(a(f)). Add this construction for the four terms and the finite correction sum. Taylor reading is linear, so the actual candidate coefficient is the sum of the four weighted Taylor readings plus the weighted readings of Hu,b,γ. Equation (TF4) bounds the size of the latter by (rread +rsect)εcorr. This supplies the coefficient and its paid remainder together.

The equation identity for this candidate is also literal. Differentiate the finite change of variables in the normalized Haar integral, or integrate its density difference before dividing by u. A spectator supported outside the changed links is unchanged. The resulting expectation is zero. Apply (TF2), subtract its identity-configuration constant, and then let the shelves increase and u follow its admitted small-step schedule. Their uniform allowances justify these passages by dominated convergence. The same identity with a spectator derivative gives the finite lattice Ward contact term when that spectator meets the support. In particular equation directions have zero separated readings, precisely the equation cancellation already used in constructing the physical quotient.

There is a possible degree-five vector component in this procedure. The raw-to-free vector map has exactly the kernel RE proved in (FC9)–(FC10). Choose its real signed-equivariant section by the corrected polynomial lift and subtract the unique remaining multiple of E. This is finite-dimensional subtraction before the coefficient limit. It explains why the trace candidate can be compared in fixed vector coordinates despite its original equation component.

The compensation by the quiet logarithmic part is exact at the coefficient level needed here. In logarithmic link coordinates the vector-current diagnostic is a sum, over d ̸= i, of the quadratic and cubic Taylor coefficients with two equal fixed-color variations in direction i and opposite lattice directions d, −d. Its cubic part is the contraction denoted crestq; denote the quadratic contraction by suited,i floftd,i,q. Define

The quiet logarithmic contribution is constructed with two moment cancellations; gauge invariance alone would not establish the required zero in (TF6). For each fixed ordered pair of plaquette types and color coordinates, let cγ be the finite two-slot path coefficient and zγ the displacement of the second slot from the first. Put

Its appended coefficients remain color invariant because that condition is a real linear subspace. The quiet logarithm is the signed and translated sum of this augmented family. The difference between it and the retained ordinary loop sum is precisely the finite appended part. Its coefficient sizes are bounded by the zero and first moments of the omitted path tail; exponential path decay bounds these moments, giving the small remainder already paid in (TF4).

Here is why this construction cancels (TF6). Let T = Lquiet. Its Hessian at the identity vanishes

the application 2(t + 2 + M) + 6 < n, where t bounds the current support and M the retained path length. For Fb = DYbT, differentiate twice at the identity. The current vanishes there, and the first derivative of a gauge-invariant scalar there is zero. The product rule consequently reduces the Hessian to D2Fb(0)[X, Z] = D2T(0)[DYb(0)X, Z] + D2T(0)[DYb(0)Z, X]. (TF6c)

The directions DYb(0)X have the bounded support of the current. Choose X, Z to be the polynomial link directions of degrees at most two that occur in the coefficient test. Their curls are affine on that neighborhood. The preceding Hessian cancellation makes both terms in (TF6c) zero. Terms with a constant pure-gauge direction vanish by the differentiated gauge identity. Expanding the cubic coefficient in the two position variables of the test uses just these Hessian pairings, so its centered-link reading is zero.

One must still convert the centered-link reading into the actual link reading. If the two position arguments are z0, z1, the change is multiplication by

e i((z0)i+(z1)i)/2.
Source page 430.
Searchable transcription
e i((z0)i+(z1)i)/2.

The constant and first coefficients of the original reading vanish. The normalized third coefficient of this product is therefore its original third coefficient plus i((z0)i+(z1)i)/2 times its second coefficient. Apply the finite coefficient functional in the d, b variables. The latter term is zero unless i = b; when i = b, its value is −1 2 floftd,i,q. This follows by expanding the quadratic coefficient on (ed, −ed) and using i2 = −1. Summing over b and d ̸= i gives exactly (TF6). Its centered-link version has just been shown zero, so Hq(DY Lquiet) = 0. The factor 1/2 thus comes from this link-centering phase and the normalized Taylor coefficients. Subtracting the paid appended part gives the stated bound for the ordinary loop contribution. No quiet contribution is left undetermined.

The needed vanishing of the quadratic part can be derived without setting a mass regulator equal to zero inside an integral. For 0 < μ ≤1, the local resolvent estimates below give, for the massive comparison expression Lμ,

| cobd,i,q(Lμ)| ≤Cμ−1.
(TF7)
Source page 430.
Searchable transcription
| cobd,i,q(Lμ)| ≤Cμ−1.
(TF7)

The proof differentiates the Fourier-resolvent expression twice; its pointwise integrand is bounded by C(|p| + μ)−5. Counting lattice shells and multiplying by the momentum cell volume gives Cμ−1

in four dimensions. This applies to both the physical and comparison resolvents, hence to their sum. At each fixed positive μ, the resolvent identity identifies the unregularized current coefficient with μ2 cobd,i,q(Lμ), up to an error tending to zero in the retained large-volume limit. Given ε > 0, choose μ = min(1, ε/[2(C + 1)]) first. The massive term has magnitude at most Cμ ≤ε/2; take the volume large enough to make the remaining error below ε/2. The unregularized quadratic coefficient therefore tends to zero. The Taylor remainder bounds give the same limit for its finite-difference reading. Summing the finitely many d, i shows that (TF6) has the same limit as its cubic part.

That cubic limit is −12 sG, where sG is the one-loop slope constant in the coupling drift. Here is how the logarithmic slope fixes it. For the regulated determinant expression A(log μ), the determinant estimates give |A(x) + (−12sG)x| ≤C, x ≤0. (TF8)

The regulated response is −A′(x), with x = log μ. The real mean value theorem on an interval [a, b] ⊂(−∞, 0] supplies an intermediate regulator at which this response differs from −12sG by at most 2C/(b −a). First choose b −a large, then use the local resolvent difference estimate to compare that response with the unregularized cubic current coefficient; this error tends to zero when the upper endpoint b is sufficiently negative and the retained volume is sufficiently large. The intermediate regulators stay in the fixed positive interval [ea, eb], so the large-volume estimates apply uniformly there. The triangle inequality proves the limit. Together with (TF7), it proves Hq →−12sG for every color q. These are finite rooted Haar-Jacobian coefficient tests, not an assumption about a mollified continuum field.

Finally the passage through many adjacent coefficient transports retains a relative error. Put

ωi = exp{−2
5 RLog( bβi)} −→0,
k = k(i) > i.
(TF9)
Source page 431.
Searchable transcription
ωi = exp{−2
5 RLog( bβi)} −→0,
k = k(i) > i.
(TF9)

The chosen calendar ensures every adjacent transport error between i and k is at most ωi/[2(k −i)] times the next coefficient size. If vj denotes that coefficient, backward induction proves

∥vj −vk∥≤ωi(k −j)
k −i
∥vk∥≤ωi∥vk∥,
i ≤j ≤k.

Source page 431.
Searchable transcription
∥vj −vk∥≤ωi(k −j)
k −i
∥vk∥≤ωi∥vk∥,
i ≤j ≤k.
(TF10)

Indeed the induction hypothesis and ωi ≤1 imply ∥vj+1∥≤2∥vk∥; adding the next adjacent error gives the asserted bound at j. The calendar inequality follows from the positive reserve −2/5 + 1/2 = 1/10: logarithms and the number of intervening steps are eventually dominated by the exponential with exponent 1/10. Thus this accumulated relative error vanishes. The finite candidate, its equation identity, the quiet compensation and its scalar diagnostic consequently survive on the same retained field and enter the following trace comparison.

Source–readout formulation. The retained tuple (J, Y, E, Q, Ξ) is the realized source record of the trace; its three identities (TF0c) are discrepancy columns kept at every level: Q is the recorded potential of the trace, Ξ of the antisymmetric part and E of the equation term. The restored tensor (TF0d) is a section that makes two of the discrepancies exact again after localization. The slope constant enters the trace through Hq →−12sG, which reads the same number sG = s that was read in (DR5) from the coupling drift; the two readings are obtained from different readers (the kinetic reader αa and the cubic current reader Hq) of the same determinant films, and their agreement is a derived consistency of the realized history and is not imposed. All objects are gauge-invariant cylinders or coefficient vectors, so the frame lift is the identity on values and the identities hold for J ◦π, Y pushed forward by the horizontal lift of Theorem 9.2, and so on.

The candidate itself is a literal configuration function at a fixed finite representative, and its defining relation (TF2) is an algebraic identity before any limit or expectation. This is the form

required by the method for an equation residual: the equation term is retained as a column of the realized record, and its vanishing in separated readings is proved (Proposition 18.2), not built into the definition. The possible degree-five vector component is removed by Proposition 16.5: the raw-to-free vector map has kernel exactly RE, and the unique remaining multiple of E is subtracted before the coefficient limit. The quiet compensation is a motion inside the fibre of the moment readout of Proposition 14.10: it changes the presentation of the candidate by a family with vanishing zeroth and first moments and does not change the readings that define the trace.

23.2 The interacting-to-Gaussian comparison used for the trace

This comparison concerns the interacting Wilson family and its selected continuum phase. It is distinct from the calculation of a Gaussian constant coefficient in the preceding chapter. We derive the passage between them.

At a fixed retained comparison station take two physical lattice insertions A0, A1, supported in its strict chamber, with their coefficient representatives converging along the common comparison filter. Let m0, m1 be the corresponding one-point Gaussian readings and let z be the centered Gaussian two-point reading. The corrected singleton and pair polynomials are

Dj = Aj −mj,
D01 = (A0 −m0)(A1 −m1) −z.
(IG1)
Source page 432.
Searchable transcription
Dj = Aj −mj,
D01 = (A0 −m0)(A1 −m1) −z.
(IG1)

We next derive the finite interacting bound for these functions. This also specifies which Gaussian quantities are subtracted. For n marked insertions let f be the cumulant polynomial of the Gaussian profile at the rounded positions. The corrected cylinder is the coefficient polynomial obtained by multiplying the insertion generating polynomial by exp(−f), in the finite algebra in which each marker has square zero. Its singleton coefficients are Aj −mj, and its pair coefficient is exactly D01 in (IG1). Thus the subtraction includes the Gaussian means as well as its connected pair coefficient. Let k be a comparison station, M ≥n its fixed maximum number of marks per chamber, and Hk its monitor. Define

Ik = log Hk
16M ,
Rk = e2Ik,
εk = e−Ik.
(IG4)
Source page 432.
Searchable transcription
Ik = log Hk
16M ,
Rk = e2Ik,
εk = e−Ik.
(IG4)

Here Hk →∞, so εk →0. The initial marked density is the Wilson density times the product of the reflected copies of the corrected cylinder over all chambers of the tiling. Push this density along the same exact renormalization course as its unmarked Wilson density. In particular its vacuum integral is the original Wilson partition function. The comparison uses this density identity, not a replacement of the interacting law by a Gaussian law.

We describe the bounds on this push. At the middle stop its regular marked sources have values Wα(U), with specified fired marker sets and support cubes. They occur together with the forced sources and the unmarked background in the finite density expansion described in the marked-integration chapter. If Cα is the corresponding coefficient of the negative Gaussian cumulant, then on the healthy local chart

|Wα(U) + Cα| ≤b−31/32(t),
|Cα| ≤b1/4(t).
(IG5)
Source page 432.
Searchable transcription
|Wα(U) + Cα| ≤b−31/32(t),
|Cα| ≤b1/4(t).
(IG5)

Here t is the station coupling, ba(t) = exp(a boil(t)), and boil(t) →∞. To obtain the first bound, expand the actual insertion product by its finite cumulant expansion. The local Gaussian comparison of its calibrated chart coefficients gives an error at most b−3/2(t) for each coefficient; the finite exponential map from cumulants to moments is continuous on this fixed finite coefficient space. Its chosen neighborhood makes the cumulant-polynomial discrepancy plus that error at

most b−31/32(t). The exact negative cumulant coefficient cancels the corresponding free coefficient. The second bound follows because the rounded Gaussian profile stays in a compact subset of the generic position domain, where its finitely many coefficients are bounded, while b1/4(t) →∞.

Here is the polynomial estimate behind the local Gaussian comparison just used. Denote coefficient l1 size by coin, and let k0 bound the degree of each insertion polynomial. After the actual linear substitution into the common key and residual coordinates, write these polynomials as Pi; write Fi for their calibrated free polynomials, included in the same coordinates. The calibration is the exact identity that their weighted truncations through the assigned degree di agree. If the substitution has weighted size at most b, the original polynomial has size at most ai, and the weight radius is ρ ≥1, every remaining monomial has weight at least ρdi+1. Hence

coin(Pi −Fi) ≤aibk0ρ−(di+1) ≤ξ.

Substitution of the Gaussian variables commutes exactly with their Wick functional: the substituted covariance is the pullback of the original covariance and its mean is the pullback of the original mean. These are equalities of finite Gaussian moments, including the residual coordinates, not limiting approximations.

Let all means and covariances have absolute value at most B ≥1, and let E bound their discrepancies from the zero-mean continuum free data in the key coordinates. Put N = nk0 and CB,N = [2B(N + 1)]N. Wick’s recursion bounds the functional on a degree-N polynomial P by CB,N coin(P), and its change under these mean and covariance discrepancies by ECB,N coin(P). One proves both assertions by induction on the monomial degree: remove one variable, pair it with each remaining variable or replace it by its mean, and, for the difference, telescope the resulting products. The at most N + 1 choices at each step and the bound B fit the displayed constant.

Combining this bound with (IG9), and then comparing the free-key polynomials under the two Gaussian data, gives total error at most

The common covariance estimates and small-mean estimates in the Gaussian comparison chapter give precisely these bounds on the pulled-back data, uniformly over the allowed small middle-stop means. The station choices make (IG10) at most b−3/2(t). Thus the estimate feeding (IG5) follows from the actual covariance comparison, exact calibration and a finite polynomial calculation. It is not an additional interacting-to-free hypothesis.

These coefficient estimates are weighted in the density, as follows. A regular source in a support
cube of radius QB has support charge at most exp(e(2Q + 1)4), since that cube occupies at most
(2Q + 1)4 budget blocks. Its marker weight at radius Rk is at most RM
k = b1/8(t), by the identity
between the monitor and the station coupling. Consequently multiplication of (IG5) by the support
charge and marker weight fits the prescribed regular-source bound. The same calculation with the
additional unit of support charge fits the Gaussian compensation source bound. The forced sources
already satisfy their full-configuration bounds. The one-step marked integration estimate therefore
propagates this compensated density from the middle stop down to the width stop, preserving the
unmarked background and bounding the total source weight per marker and the total forced weight
