The parallel-line primitive
C3: scaling degrees and their exact scope › The parallel-line primitive · lines 907–938
For the stress–stress contraction in or , the two scalar derivatives at the interaction and the two at the stress vertex give the following monomial degrees:
| Interaction/stress monomials | Derivatives on the two lines | Primitive degree | Degree minus codimension |
|---|---|---|---|
| mass/mass | |||
| kinetic/mass or mass/kinetic | at most | at most | |
| kinetic/kinetic | at most | at most | |
| temporal kinetic component |
A mass row disappears when its mass coefficient vanishes. These are primitive monomial statements, not a claim that tensor summation cannot lower the degree.
For , use and retain as tangential variables. Its codimension is four even when . Multiplying the primitive by the independent spectator coefficient does not turn this partial diagonal into the total diagonal. Whether the complete product has a uniform transverse microlocal estimate remains a separate obligation.
