# Chapter "The Coherent State of Attention" — the position-space realization of the
overlap

`ChapterCoherentOverlap` takes the Bargmann–Fock reproducing kernel
`⟨q|k⟩ = exp (-‖q‖²/2 - ‖k‖²/2 + ⟪q,k⟫)` as the *definition* of the coherent-state
overlap.  This module derives the same kernel from the concrete **position-space
wave functions** of the corresponding minimum-uncertainty wave packets, so that
the kernel is no longer a definition but the value of an honest `L²(ℝ)` inner
product.

With `ℏ = m = ω = 1`, the coherent state displaced to the position `a` has the
normalized wave function

  `ψ_a(x) = π^{-1/4} exp (-(x - a)²/2)`,

and the module proves:

* `gaussianPacket_sq_integral` — `∫ ψ_a(x)² dx = 1`: the packet is normalized;
* `gaussianPacket_inner` — **the headline**: `∫ ψ_a(x) ψ_b(x) dx = exp (-(a-b)²/4)`,
  a pure function of the distance between the two packet centres;
* `gaussianPacket_inner_sq_eq_coherentOverlap` — squaring gives the Born
  probability `|⟨ψ_a|ψ_b⟩|² = exp (-(a-b)²/2)`, which is exactly the real
  coherent-overlap kernel of `ChapterCoherentOverlap` at the parameters `a, b`;
* `packetBorn_eq_scoreSoftmax` — consequently the position-space Born weights of a
  query packet against a family of key packets are the Softmax of minus the squared
  distances at inverse temperature `1/2`.

Conventions: the physics parameter of a coherent state is `α = (a + i p)/√2`, so
the fidelity `|⟨α|β⟩|² = exp (-|α - β|²)` becomes `exp (-(a-b)²/2)` in terms of the
positions `a, b` of two zero-momentum packets; this is the convention under which
the real kernel of `ChapterCoherentOverlap` is recovered on the nose.

Everything here is `sorry`-free and `axiom`-free (only `propext`,
`Classical.choice`, `Quot.sound`).
