Finite source-Q weighted derivatives and telescoping #

This module closes the finite, source-level calculus behind Suzuki Proposition 9.3(iii) and Proposition 9.4(vi), specialized to κ = 1, β = 2.

The base layer is kept separate. On 2 < s < 3, its weighted derivative is -1; this is the term which combines with the even-layer derivatives to recover the prescribed history Q(s-1) = A_m/(s-1). Above 3, the ordinary layer recurrences telescope, leaving only the last even layer.

The exceptional f₁ derivative on the first source strip. This is the base term used in the 2 < s < 3 finite-Q equation.

Above the support endpoint of f₁, its weighted derivative is zero.

The ordinary recursive weighted derivative, stated separately from the exceptional base layer.

The even predecessors of the first m odd layers are exactly the first m even layers with the terminal even layer removed. This is the finite index telescope in Proposition 9.3(iii).

The predecessors of the first m even layers are exactly the first m odd layers.

On the missing window 2 < s < 3, the finite source prefix satisfies the exact weighted delay equation with no residual. The -1 from f₁ is essential: it turns 1 + T_{2m-1}(s-1) into the prescribed history A_m/(s-1).

Above the common differentiability threshold 3, all recursive layers differentiate and telescope; only the last even layer remains.

Unified finite telescoping equation away from the genuine source kink s = 3. The residual is exactly suzukiProposition118SourceQTerminal.
