Claim·§9.3 Witness envelopes and escaped paths·inside lemEscape contribution charged to child discrepancies
Statement (paper)
The indicator of the event that an actual endpoint lies outside the envelope is at most a sum, over candidate paths, of nonnegative -th powers of the root discrepancy between the actual witness and the clean witness at an offending port, where the actual witness equals one and the clean witness equals zero; this holds also for exposed zero-weight ports, with no lower bound on the candidate's increment assumed.
In plain English
The indicator of the escape event (an actual endpoint lying outside the envelope) is at most a sum over candidate paths of nonnegative -th powers of the root discrepancy between the actual and clean witnesses at an offending port, where the actual witness is and the clean witness is . This also covers exposed zero-weight ports, and no lower bound on the candidate's increment is needed.
Why it's here
This converts the combinatorial escape event into a quantity controlled by the metric bounds on actual–clean child discrepancies, so later claims can charge each offending port to the corresponding child's witness discrepancy. It relies on the atom-port property that smooth witnesses equal one on every exposed entry, including weight-zero ones, so the actual witness is at an offending port while the clean witness is , and no increment lower bound is needed.
Classified routine:
A direct bookkeeping step: since the actual witness equals 1 and the clean witness equals 0 at an offending port (by the atom-port property lem-atom-ports), the indicator is bounded by |1-0|^s, and a union over candidate paths gives the sum.
