The supplied release source was % compiled locally to paper.pdf, and its printed result numbers were checked: % Theorem 1 and Corollary 2 on p. 2; Lemma 3 on p. 6; Lemma 4 on p. 8; % Proposition 5 on p. 9; Proposition 6 on p. 14; Proposition 7 on p. 15; % Lemma 8 on p. 19. Their sections are 1, 1, 3, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7. % The exact remote PDF was subsequently retrieved and checked independently. % CHECK: The entropy-energy formula in oai-typical-upper, Lemma 4, is % log 2 - j(V) + beta e(V) = P_beta - beta^2 p(V)^2/4. Its potential has % terminal value log(2 cosh y), so its pressure is our counting-measure P_beta. % CHECK: The post-support kernel used in Section 13 is the mass-one % specialization of the step kernel in the proof of Lemma 3, Section 3.2, % pp. 6-7 of that locally compiled PDF; the prefactor exp(-t/2) follows by % inserting U(v,y)=log(2 cosh y)+(beta^2-v)/2 in that kernel. % CHECK: The existing karatzas-shreve-1991 entry records Theorem 3.3.6 as % the Ito product rule, which is the stochastic-calculus locator used here. % The existing tsirelson-ibragimov-sudakov-1976 entry supplies the standard % Gaussian concentration reference used with the explicit Lipschitz constant.
