Cycles (A5) #
Statements split from the original Statements.lean skeleton (one file per proving task).
See AUDIT-NOTES A5 and the packet sources B4-cycles-and-stronger-hierarchies.md (§3-6) and
B5-pair-source-classification.md (§4) for the mathematics.
The Walsh section is general Boolean-cube Fourier analysis (orthogonality, inversion, uniqueness) and is reusable by the other pair-source files.
Walsh characters on a finite Boolean cube #
Walsh uniqueness. Two weight functions on a finite Boolean cube with the same Walsh moments are equal.
The boundary map of the cycle #
The source boundary of a vertex set of the cycle has even size.
A vertex set of the cycle is determined by its source boundary together with the
membership of the vertex 0.
A5: the cycle target is a law #
The Walsh moments of the cycle target: the character of a vertex set F has moment
(−q)^{|∂F|/2} (AUDIT-NOTES A5; packet B5 §4, equation (12)).
A5: every cycle #
A5: exact parity rigidity for the triangle #
AUDIT-NOTES A5, exact parity rigidity for the triangle. A compatible three-bit law
supported on the even-parity outcomes has E[A] E[B] E[C] ≥ 0. (Absorb the seeds, fix y₀,
put S = B(·,y₀), T = C(·,y₀); then A = ST, B = SU, C = TU for a sign U of the
third source, so the three means are st, su, tu.)
