Upper semicontinuity of the exponential-sum growth exponent #

This file proves the upper semicontinuity assertion in the blueprint. The main input is scale transference: dilation and finite Fourier inversion increase the scale, while decomposition into residue classes decreases it. Both operations preserve the fixed model order of the phase.

Scale transference #

On the subcritical interval, the exponential-sum growth exponent is monotone.

Increasing the scale by γ - α costs at most that amount in the growth exponent.

The growth exponent is 1-Lipschitz on the subcritical interval.

The exponential-sum growth exponent is continuous on the subcritical interval.

The exponential-sum growth exponent is upper semicontinuous.
