This formalizes part of Theorem 2.5 of Letwin (arXiv:2607.24164v1), cited there as the key moment-map Hessian bound.

Let ι and κ be finite index types. Let B be a real positive semidefinite matrix on ι, and let Tₐ be a family of symmetric real matrices indexed by κ. Define the κ-by-κ matrix

Gab=tr⁡(BTaBTb).G_{ab}=\operatorname{tr}(B T_a B T_b).Gab​=tr(BTa​BTb​).

Then G is positive semidefinite.

The result provides a trace-weighted Gram-matrix formulation useful for controlling families of symmetric derivative matrices.

Formalization Note The statement is purely finite-dimensional and algebraic; it does not itself assert the probabilistic expectation inequality reviewed for the cited paper item.

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.
