Expectations on inserted maximal chains #
This file rewrites the chain expectation in terms of the direct inserted
states. Together with InsertionK and InsertionAlgebra, it is the bridge
from concrete Boolean chains to the pairwise mass-transport calculation in
the proof of Theorem 2.1.
Expand a Boolean-chain expectation as its finite level sum.
For an inserted permutation, the same expectation is carried by the
direct states C₀,...,C_J,H_J,...,Hₙ.
Payoff at a lifted lower state Cᵣ, with a harmless zero extension.

Payoff at a lifted upper state Hᵣ, with a harmless zero extension.

Payoff after independently revealing the new last coordinate with
probability p.

- Feige.revealedLastPayoff p g S = (1 - p) * g (Feige.liftChainState S) + p * g (insert (Fin.last n) (Feige.liftChainState S))

In expectation form, the old chain followed by an independent Bernoulli reveal expands into the independent lower and upper pair masses.
An increasing Boolean-lattice payoff is increasing on every insertion
pair Cᵣ ⊆ Hᵣ.
Each level term in the abstract insertion score is the corresponding term of the concrete inserted Boolean-chain expectation.
The canonical pairwise score is exactly the concrete expectation of the corresponding inserted maximal chain.
Concrete finite conclusion of the chain-insertion step.
All combinatorial and averaging steps have been discharged: the remaining hypotheses are exactly the analytic sequence identities and signs supplied by the exponential-transfer argument.
The chain-insertion conclusion specialized to the actual F,A,B,w,θ
sequences of an old Boolean chain. Only strict band positivity,
monotonicity of θ, the edgewise transfer identity, and the
old-expectation expansion remain as analytic inputs.
In chain-expectation form, independently revealing the new coordinate is dominated by one concrete insertion of that coordinate into the old maximal chain.
