theorem

Uses compression and cyclic transport to exclude fixed vectors in every other chosen pure-state class.

Statement

Fix a shell family and indices as below, with . For , let and let be its orthogonal projection. Then , or equivalently .

Assumptions

Let be the completed CAR algebra, the completion of the matrix stages under . Write for the image of the first diagonal matrix unit. These are decreasing projections with . Write for the canonical embedding of stage . The root state is determined by on every stage.

Choose one pure state from each unitary-equivalence class of pure-state Gelfand-Naimark-Segal (GNS) representations, retaining at the root index . Write for its complete complex GNS space, unital star representation and unit cyclic vector. Thus , and the vectors are dense in . Inner products are linear in the second argument.

A fixed shell family supplies unital complex star automorphisms and elements with , , and . At the root, is the identity and . Fix and put . The family is supplied; its existence is not an extra conclusion here. The condition means that the unitary-equivalence classes are distinct, not merely that two state functionals in the same class differ. The selected representation is irreducible and has nonzero Hilbert space because .

Conclusion

The transported flag leaves no nonzero vector fixed in an inequivalent chosen fiber. As a separate consequence of decreasing orthogonal projections, in norm for each fixed . Thus the surviving line in the matching fiber is sharply separated from every other chosen class.

Proof route

If contained a unit vector , the transported CAR compression estimate , valid for every , would imply . Irreducibility makes cyclic. Equality of this vector state with the state of yields a unitary intertwiner from to , contradicting their distinct classes.

Proof steps

  1. If , choose with and normalize to a unit vector . Since projects onto the common range, every fixes .

  2. Take the matrix coefficient of the represented compression error against . Fixedness and unit norm turn it into the constant ; norm convergence forces this constant to vanish.

  3. The orbit closures of and are their full Hilbert spaces. Equality of vector states gives equality of orbit inner products, so the map extends to a surjective complex-linear isometry that intertwines the representations. This contradicts .

Here Limit is and completedRootPureState is the root state , bundled with its purity proof. transportedFlag family i n is , and selectedRepresentation completedRootPureState j is . Thus i selects the flag, while j selects the representation on which it acts. The hypothesis hij : j ≠ i excludes the matching GNS class. commonFixedProjection is , so = 0 is the operator equality in the Statement. The quantified indices range over chosen GNS classes, not over arbitrary vectors or arbitrary representations.

Lean realization notes

Irreducibility is used to make a nonzero candidate fixed vector cyclic. The conclusion is not asserted for an arbitrary reducible representation or for a different vector state in the same GNS class. The exact source proves equality of projections; strong convergence uses the additional cited projection theorem and does not imply operator-norm convergence.
