Trivial bounds for exponential sum growth exponents #

This module formalizes the trivial bounds on β in the blueprint's Exponential sum growth exponents chapter (beta-chapter).

For α > 1, a uniform Euler–Maclaurin estimate compares the exponential sum of an arbitrary approximate model phase with its oscillatory integral. The derivative bounds for model phases then give the upper bound β(α) ≤ α - 1. For the reverse inequality, it suffices to use the logarithmic model phase, since an admissible exponent must bound every model phase. Its sum is essentially ∑ n ^ (iT) and its integral has size comparable to N / T, while Euler–Maclaurin contributes only a bounded error, giving β(α) ≥ α - 1.

For 0 ≤ α ≤ 1, the triangle inequality gives β(α) ≤ α. The L^2 integral estimate lemma is applied to the separated values log(n/N) to find a parameter for which the logarithmic-phase sum has size comparable to N ^ (1 / 2), yielding the lower bound β(α) ≥ α / 2.

For each Euler–Maclaurin order, the logarithmic exponential sum differs from its explicit main term by a uniformly bounded amount once the scale conditions hold. This is the formal counterpart of the blueprint's estimate for ∑ n ^ (iT), with the factor 2π absorbed into Lean's Fourier character.

The exponential-sum growth exponent is nonnegative.

The triangle inequality bounds the growth exponent by the scale exponent.
