Notation. S=[−3,3]2S=[-3,3]^2S=[−3,3]2 is the model square; a metric is a smooth positive matrix field ggg; zzz is a scalar height; H=∇g2zH=\nabla_g^2zH=∇g2​z is its covariant Hessian; KgK_gKg​ is the Gaussian curvature; E=det⁡g (1−∣dz∣g2)E=\det g\,(1-|dz|_g^2)E=detg(1−∣dz∣g2​); q=Hxy/Hyyq=H_{xy}/H_{yy}q=Hxy​/Hyy​ is the Hessian quotient; κ(x2−h(y))\kappa(x^2-h(y))κ(x2−h(y)) is the model curvature; the patch box and the central box are the squares [−1/10,1/10]2[-1/10,1/10]^2[−1/10,1/10]2 and [−1/5,1/5]2[-1/5,1/5]^2[−1/5,1/5]2; the sheared coordinates are ξ=x, θ=y+q0x\xi=x,\ \theta=y+q_0xξ=x, θ=y+q0​x, with sheared height zsz_szs​; LLL and v∗v_*v∗​ are the class width and speed of (4.2); g~τ\tilde g_\taug~​τ​ is the test metric (4.12) built from g∗g_*g∗​; a bounded admissible height of bound MMM is an admissible height with (4.1).

Let zzz be smooth on an open set UUU containing the horizontal segment {(x,a):x∈(ℓ,r)}\{(x,a):x\in(\ell,r)\}{(x,a):x∈(ℓ,r)}. Put u0(x)=z(x,a)u_0(x)=z(x,a)u0​(x)=z(x,a), u1(x)=∂yz(x,a)u_1(x)=\partial_yz(x,a)u1​(x)=∂y​z(x,a) and P(x,y)=u0(x)+u1(x)(y−a)P(x,y)=u_0(x)+u_1(x)(y-a)P(x,y)=u0​(x)+u1​(x)(y−a). Then for every x∈(ℓ,r)x\in(\ell,r)x∈(ℓ,r) the six-variable jets agree:

(x,a,Px,Py,Pxy,Pxx)(x,a)=(x,a,zx,zy,zxy,zxx)(x,a).\big(x,a,P_x,P_y,P_{xy},P_{xx}\big)(x,a)=\big(x,a,z_x,z_y,z_{xy},z_{xx}\big)(x,a).(x,a,Px​,Py​,Pxy​,Pxx​)(x,a)=(x,a,zx​,zy​,zxy​,zxx​)(x,a).

This says that the degree-one time polynomial built from the Cauchy data of zzz on the cut y=ay=ay=a reproduces every argument of the Darboux right-hand side at that cut. It is the base case of the Taylor comparison across the thin strip.

Formalization Note. This is the upstream Lean declaration OAI.SmoothLocal.Taylor.linearCauchy_height_initial_state in lean/OAI/Geometry/IsometricImmersion/Taylor/TaylorCauchyData.lean, stated verbatim; the Lean statement is authoritative for the precise hypotheses. It is an intermediate result of OpenAI's formalization.
