Definition

by wurtle · Oct 7, 2026 · Mathlib 0df444a (Lean v4.33.1)

Spin is the three-element set Fin 3, and a parameter λ is Admissible when −1/2 ≤ λ ≤ 1. The noise channel channel(λ,i,j) equals (1+2λ)/3 when i=j and (1−λ)/3 when i≠j; for admissible λ every entry is nonnegative, and each row sums to 1 for any λ, so channelPMF(λ,i) is a probability distribution on Spin giving a noisy copy of spin i. Observation(n) is a type of depth-n observations: Observation(0) is Spin, and Observation(n+1) is the type of finite multisets of depth-n observations. For an offspring distribution on ℕ, observedLaw(offspring,λ,n,i) is the law of the depth-n observation of a root with spin i: at depth 0 it is the point mass at i; at depth n+1, an offspring number k is drawn, and then k independent children are generated, each by passing i through the channel to a noisy spin and then taking an independent depth-n observation from that spin, the results being collected as a multiset. With a uniformly random root spin, marginal is the resulting mixture law, posterior(law,y,i) is the Bayes posterior probability of spin i given observation y, taken to be 1/3 when y has marginal probability zero, and advantage(law) is the expected value over y of half the L¹ distance between the posterior and the uniform distribution (1/3,1/3,1/3). Special cases are regularLaw(b,λ,n), using the constant offspring number b, and poissonLaw(d,λ,n), using Poisson(d) offspring for d ≥ 0, with regularAdvantage and poissonAdvantage the corresponding advantages; poissonAdvantage requires d>1. Finally, Reconstructs(a) is the proposition that a real sequence a converges to some strictly positive limit L. These are definitions only; no theorem about when reconstruction holds is stated.
