AWGN achievability — continuous AEP engine (Chebyshev concentration) #

False-wall overturn for the awgn-continuous-aep-gaussian wall slug. The continuous AEP mass-concentration sub-bound (i) does not require a.s. convergence (the infinite product measure SLLN that the inventory assumed); a finite-n Chebyshev weak law on the finite product measure Measure.pi (fun _ : Fin n => μ) is enough. Both lemmas below are genuine (0 sorry, sorryAx-free).

Both lemmas are stated abstractly (general probability measure μ + an L² statistic φ), so they can be reused for the AWGN joint law + log-density by substituting the concrete φ.

On the product measure Measure.pi (fun _ : Fin n => μ), the empirical mean (∑ᵢ φ(xᵢ))/n of a common L² statistic φ deviates from μ[φ] by at least ε on a set of mass at most Var[φ]/(n ε²). Finite-n Chebyshev concentration — no infinite product measure / SLLN. This is the engine for the continuous-AEP mass sub-bound (i).

    {α : Type u_1} [MeasurableSpace α] (μ : MeasureTheory.Measure α) [MeasureTheory.IsProbabilityMeasure μ] {φ : α → ℝ} (hφ : MeasureTheory.MemLp φ 2 μ) {ε η : ℝ} (hε : 0 < ε) (hη : 0 < η) :

    From the concentration bound: for any tolerance η > 0 there is a threshold N₀ such that for n ≥ N₀ the empirical mean lands within ε of μ[φ] on a set of mass ≥ 1 - η. The existence form the AEP ultimately consumes.
