Independent additive resource certificates #
The same semantic realization admits multiple resource interpretations. Additive measures of native evidence compose exactly; this does not model peak live space or cache replacement. Module potentials may depend on hidden intermediate representations, which are retained as existential witnesses rather than silently exposed to the client.
Main definitions #
total: additive interpretation of a native trace.Bound: a per-operation resource certificate, separate from semantic realization.
Main results #
Bound.client: resource bounds compose along an adaptive client.Module.bound: transport worst-case bounds through a semantic module.Module.amortized_client: telescope hidden-state potential through arbitrary executions.

Under a resource certificate, every native execution of a client whose history is admissible, from related states, has total weight at most the total charge of the specified history.
Existence and semantic correctness are inherited independently from the realization.
Uniform constant per-operation bounds scale by the history length.
Existence, correctness, and total cost for a uniform constant per-operation bound.
A resource interpretation is transported afterwards, without changing semantic proofs.
Hidden representation credit telescopes along an arbitrary adaptive upper client. The intermediate abstract state remains existentially hidden in the conclusion.
