plain-language theorem explainer

At the two-site decoy phase point, the configuration coordinate on site 1 is zero. Residual R0 proofs cite this when evaluating honest versus frozen configuration partials of the naive dynamic Hamiltonian. The argument is a one-line simp that unfolds the piecewise witness definition.

Claim. Let $x$ be the decoy phase point on two sites (unit configuration and momentum at site $0$, zero at site $1$). Writing $q$ for its configuration component, one has $q(1)=0$ for $1\in\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}$.

background

Module Wave C2 R0+R1 treats the dynamic structure-function bracket on a two-site discrete phase space. R0 is the decoy residual: the naive lookalike that plugs $g,x$ into the frozen HamW slot and reuses frozen partials fails, because the configuration partial picks up an uncompensated $\partial g/\partial q$ term. R1 then shows the honestly differentiated candidate inhabits the phase-space-dependent Hamiltonian construction and recovers the target bracket.

The decoy phase point is the explicit witness: unit configuration and unit momentum at site $0$, zero at site $1$, chosen so that both the gradient and $\partial g/\partial q$ are nonzero at site $0$. Configuration and momentum are functions $\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}\to\mathbb{R}$. This lemma records the configuration value at the complementary site.

proof idea

One-line wrapper: simp unfolds the definition of the decoy phase point. The configuration component is the piecewise map that returns $1$ at site $0$ and $0$ elsewhere, so evaluation at $1:\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}$ reduces to $0$ by definitional simplification.

why it matters

Feeds the R0 decoy theorem TypedResidual_naive_dynamic_HamW_decoy_fails, which states that at this witness, with the decoy lapse and site $0$, the honest configuration partial of the dynamic Hamiltonian differs from the frozen HamW partial by the uncompensated $\partial g/\partial q$ term. Closing R0 (and R1) is the first block of the Gap-5 residual DAG; continuum and HKT residuals stay open, and gap5_constraint_recovery is not flipped. The lemma is pure bookkeeping on the witness, not a physics claim about gravity itself.
