NRR.EMP.NormalizedAreaDeviation — the deviation map on zero-sum weights #

The additive-constant freedom of power weights is removed by restricting to the linear hyperplane of weight vectors whose coordinate sum is zero. The area-deviation vector also has coordinate sum zero, so it defines a continuous self-map of that finite-dimensional hyperplane.

This is the finite-dimensional map to which the eventual degree / outward-pointing argument for existence of equal-area power weights is applied.

        The normalized deviation map is continuous.

        A zero of the normalized deviation map is exactly a normalized equal-area weight.

        Any zero of the normalized deviation map supplies the unrestricted existence theorem.
