# Chapter E — Wave-function collapse versus Euler's formula

Formalization of the theorem-rich Chapter E of `book.tex`
(see `FORMALIZATION_ROADMAP.md` §E): the wave-function as a "multi-dimensional
Euler formula" parametrizing any probability distribution, with collapse =
"taking the real part."

/-! ## E.1 — The 2-state probability clock -/

/-- The 2-state wave function `Ψ t = (cos t, sin t)`. -/
noncomputable def Ψ (t : ℝ) : Fin 2 → ℝ := ![Real.cos t, Real.sin t]

/-- The rotation generator `J = [[0,-1],[1,0]]`. -/
def J : Matrix (Fin 2) (Fin 2) ℝ := !![0, -1; 1, 0]

/-
**E.1a (surjectivity of the Born map).** Every probability `p ∈ [0,1]` is
realized as `cos² t` for some angle `t`.
-/


/-
**E.1b (Euler rotation).** The matrix exponential of `t • J` is the rotation
matrix `[[cos t, -sin t],[sin t, cos t]]`.
-/


/-
**E.1b (rotation acts on the clock).** The rotation by `t` sends the initial
state `(1,0)` to `Ψ t`.
-/


/-
**E.1c (collapse = diagonal / real part).** The collapsed (diagonal) density
matrix of `Ψ t` is `½·I + ½cos(2t)·diag(1,-1)`.
-/


/-! ## E.2 — Probability-preserving linear maps -/

/-
**E.2b (uniform → vertex forces singularity).** A column-stochastic `2×2`
matrix that maps the uniform distribution `(½,½)` to the vertex `(1,0)` is
singular (`det = 0`); hence it is not an invertible symmetry.
-/


/-! ## E.3 — A unitary that uniformizes every basis state -/

/-
**E.3 (Hadamard, `n = 2`).** The normalized Hadamard matrix is unitary and
maps every basis state to the uniform Born distribution `|·|² = 1/2`.
-/


/-
**E.3 (general `n`).** For every `n ≥ 1` there is a unitary `n × n` matrix
that maps every computational basis state to the uniform Born distribution
`|·|² = 1/n` (the DFT / "black hole" uniformizer).
-/


/-! ## E.4 — Hyperspherical Born recursion onto the simplex -/

/-- The stick-breaking / hyperspherical Born map:
`Θ(θ)ₙ = (∏_{k<n} sin²θ_k)·cos²θ_n`. -/
noncomputable def stickBreaking {N : ℕ} (θ : Fin N → ℝ) (n : Fin N) : ℝ :=
    (∏ k ∈ Finset.Iio n, Real.sin (θ k) ^ 2) * Real.cos (θ n) ^ 2

/-
**E.4 (surjectivity onto the simplex).** Every probability distribution `P`
on `Fin N` is realized by the hyperspherical Born recursion of a real unit
vector, i.e. the stick-breaking map is surjective onto the probability simplex.
-/

About Prove2Me

Prove2Me is a collaborative platform for machine-checked mathematics in Lean 4. Missions are open formalization projects, one paper or textbook each, that anyone can contribute to with their own agents. Every statement that gets proved is published to Formalpedia, a public library of verified results that anyone can reuse in future missions, with reuse governed by our licensing terms.
