Assume a real constant C bounds the cotangent quadratic form for every finite family of real frequencies with positive admissible circular gaps at most1, by C times the sum of squared complex coefficients divided by their gaps. Then, for every such family, the quadratic form with kernel pi/sin(pi*(theta_r-theta_s)) obeys the same bound with the same C. Both quadratic forms omit diagonal terms. Admissible circular gap means delta_r <= |theta_r-theta_s+m| for every distinct pair and every integer m. This is a conditional transfer theorem preserving the assumed constant; it does not itself assert that a particular cotangent bound holds.

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.
