The map
takes to and preserves formal Cauchy data. For each source solution it is the unique target solution with those data. Hence it is the unique map between these solution spaces with those properties, and
If a gauge transformation is supported in a common plateau,
Proof. For ,
The correction has zero data. Coefficientwise uniqueness follows successively from Lemma lem:Cauchy. The composites in the cocycle assertions solve the same final equation with the same initial data, so uniqueness proves them.
For (eq:comparison-equivariance), both sides solve the transformed target equation by plateau covariance and have the same Cauchy data, since the transformation is the identity near . Apply uniqueness again.
