Final constant absorption for Proposition 5.7 #
This file closes the scalar ledger after the run-compression and all-simple-leaf reductions. Leaf multiplicities pay for the number of branch vertices, while one explicit exponential base absorbs the compressed word length, the tree factor, and the uniform merge loss.
A valid tree with total leaf multiplicity 2n has at most n
branch vertices. This is the tree-count input to the final constant
absorption in Proposition 5.7.
One explicit final base. The factor 64 simultaneously covers either
the 16^n merge-pattern ledger or the coarser 64^n version.
Instances For
The chosen final base is at least one.
Scalar constant absorption. The hypotheses m ≤ 2n and b ≤ n
are respectively the compressed-word and branch-count ledgers. Any
nonnegative loss base up to 64 is absorbed.
Tree-facing form of the final scalar ledger. The tree hypotheses and
totalMultiplicity = 2n discharge the branch exponent automatically.
Tree-facing specialization with the full 64^n loss budget.
