Stone's theorem, reconstruction direction: `U t = exp(-it Hgen)`
The second half of Stone's theorem, completing `StoneGenerator.lean`'s existence result: the strongly continuous unitary group `U` a candidate generator `T := stoneCandidateGenerator hUmul` was built from is *recovered* from that generator's essential self-adjoint closure via the Cayley-transform spectral integral (`unboundedSpectralTheorem_of_essentiallySelfAdjoint`, `CayleySpectralData/SpecTheorem.lean`) and its associated unitary group (`WOTSpectralMeasure.expUnitaryGroup`, `StoneUnitaryGroup.lean`).
Strategy
For `V t := ContinuousLinearMapWOT.toCLM (D.expUnitaryGroup t)`, both `t ↦ U t x` and `t ↦ V t x` satisfy the same "Schrödinger equation" `w'(t) = i • T.closure (w t)` for `x` in the (dense) domain of `T := stoneCandidateGenerator hUmul`:
- the `U`-side derivative relation is `GeneratorInvariance.stoneCandidateGenerator_hasDerivAt`; - the `V`-side one combines `Flow.Stone`'s `expUnitaryGroup_hasDerivAt` with this Track's own `Flow.StoneInvariance.expUnitaryGroup_translate`.
Given that, `g(t) := ⟪U t x - V t x, U t x - V t x⟫_ℂ` has zero derivative everywhere (using that `T.closure` is self-adjoint, hence symmetric, so `⟪w, T.closure w⟫` is always real and the two cross terms of the product rule cancel exactly), hence is the constant `g(0) = 0`, hence `U t x = V t x` for every `t`. Density of `T`'s domain (already established in `StoneGenerator.lean`, since the analytic vectors used there are a subset of it) then extends this identity from the domain to all of `H`, using continuity of both `U t` and `V t`.
Main definitions
- `stoneReconstructionSpectralMeasure`, `stoneReconstructionData` : the Cayley-transform spectral measure and domain-aware spectral theorem for `stoneCandidateGenerator hUmul`'s closure. - `stoneReconstructionUnitaryGroup` : the resulting concrete `exp(itT)`, as a genuine `H →L[ℂ] H`-valued function of `t`. - `stoneCandidateGenerator_reconstruction` : `U t = stoneReconstructionUnitaryGroup t` for every `t` — the reconstruction theorem itself.

Spectral measure of the reconstructed generator
Given a strongly continuous unitary group on a Hilbert space , let be the candidate generator associated with it. This definition constructs the spectral measure on associated with the self-adjoint closure of the operator via the Cayley transform. This spectral measure is represented as a Weak Operator Topology (WOT) spectral measure.
Spectral Theorem for the Reconstructed Generator
Let be a complex Hilbert space and be a strongly continuous unitary group on . Let be the candidate generator associated with . Then the closure of this operator, , satisfies the spectral theorem for self-adjoint operators with respect to the spectral measure constructed via the Cayley transform. This provides the spectral representation and identifies the domain of accordingly.
Reconstructed unitary group via spectral measure
For a given strongly continuous unitary group and its candidate generator , let be the self-adjoint closure of with its associated spectral measure . This definition assigns to each the continuous linear operator defined by the spectral integral: This represents the one-parameter unitary group reconstructed from the spectral data of the generator's closure.
