Adaptive Record Consistency in a Schulman-Type Model
Abstract
Adaptive measurements test whether a retrocausal model preserves observable records when experiments are connected by classical feedback. We establish exact and quantitative composition constraints for a finite-width, coplanar Schulman-type source with positive wrapped-Cauchy propagation weights. Raw segment composition admits an explicit adaptive signalling witness. A uniquely determined scalar correction preserves recorded continuations, and a detector with preparation memory implements this correction while retaining the source correlations. For common, independently prepared terminal detectors coupled to the source through arrival angles, exact calibration forces equal-mass antipodal atomic responses. Under setting-only raw feedback, the sharp minimum worst disturbance of an earlier record is ε⋆(0)=[2cosh(2Γ)]−1, where Γ is the total source-path width. We derive explicit finite-error bounds and prove linear small-error improvement. For four settings at Γ=0.4, a uniform reduction over arbitrary nonnegative response measures and a continuous polynomial certificate establish ε⋆(δ)=ε⋆(0)−C0.4δ+O(δ2), with C0.4≃9.351091771057010. A positive five-atom detector attains this coefficient. The results quantify the compatibility of isolated-source accuracy and adaptive record preservation, and provide precise design conditions for retrocausal apparatus models with explicit preparation, memory, and control.

AB - Adaptive measurements test whether a retrocausal model preserves observable records when experiments are connected by classical feedback. We establish exact and quantitative composition constraints for a finite-width, coplanar Schulman-type source with positive wrapped-Cauchy propagation weights. Raw segment composition admits an explicit adaptive signalling witness. A uniquely determined scalar correction preserves recorded continuations, and a detector with preparation memory implements this correction while retaining the source correlations. For common, independently prepared terminal detectors coupled to the source through arrival angles, exact calibration forces equal-mass antipodal atomic responses. Under setting-only raw feedback, the sharp minimum worst disturbance of an earlier record is ε_⋆(0)=[2cosh(2Γ)]^−1, where Γ is the total source-path width. We derive explicit finite-error bounds and prove linear small-error improvement. For four settings at Γ=0.4, a uniform reduction over arbitrary nonnegative response measures and a continuous polynomial certificate establish ε_⋆(δ)=ε_⋆(0)−C_0.4δ+O(δ^2), with C_0.4≃9.351091771057010. A positive five-atom detector attains this coefficient. The results quantify the compatibility of isolated-source accuracy and adaptive record preservation, and provide precise design conditions for retrocausal apparatus models with explicit preparation, memory, and control.
