An explicit obstruction to unchanged free-shell descent · lines 1008–1073 · proof included or linked
X-L-ST@1#thm:nondescent, X-L-ST@1#eq:witness
For every fixed , the nonlinear rule
does not preserve . It therefore does not descend to the unchanged unrestricted classical free-shell quotient.
A compactly smeared scalar equation detects the failure exactly at order .
Proof. Choose and a sufficiently small product neighborhood inside . Define
Thus , and on a sufficiently small time interval about .
Take the Grassmann algebra with one odd generator , and the smooth free configuration
All equations (eq:freeeq) hold.
Choose a nonnegative , supported in that neighborhood, normalized by
The functional
belongs to . On the displayed free configuration,
and therefore
It follows that
Thus .
