Every represented operator is compact

Back to Project mathematical routes

Scope

The preimage ideal of compact operators and a separating character exclude a noncompact represented image. The contradiction uses the same projection while forcing the character to take both zero and one.

7 direct Cards + 14 reused prerequisites = 21 unique Cards. This count is a selected Card closure, not a source-declaration count.

Dependency-first reading route

Read selected Card prerequisites before their uses. Levels are recomputed from the selected reachability-preserving projection; omitted source helpers remain traceable in the source exploration.
