With outputs ordered as ,
Its accessible channel and complete complement are
Hence
For , put . An optimal decoder is
For , use .
There is an identified comparison isometry on the same complete spaces that retains , places all emitted weight in a collected mode, and leaves missed modes vacant. Writing
its complete distance is
The collected-channel distance is exactly .
Proof. Factorization gives (eq:Wcol). The two branches are orthogonal on both output sides, and
The residual embedding is orthogonal to . Partial traces give the channels. Lemma lem:erasure proves (eq:packeterrors) and the decoder formula. An optimal residual comparison state is
If , choose
If , choose any normalized collected mode and multiply it by . If , set . Use (eq:WSF) with this wavefunction. The resulting is an isometry, and
Theorem thm:C1 proves the exact complete distance. Also,
because .
The comparison collected channel minus the actual collected channel is
with the comparison embedding used at a zero-success endpoint. The two output supports are orthogonal, so the half-diamond distance is .
