Transporting an Lp element along an equality of measures #
Equal measures give equal (not merely isomorphic) Lp types, so an element of Lp E p μ can be
moved to Lp E p ν by cast whenever μ = ν. The cast is the identity on representatives, which
is what TauCeti.coeFn_cast_lp records.
This is the bookkeeping a statement needs when a space is defined with one description of its
measure and used with another, for example a basis of L²(γ) fed to
TauCeti.weightL2Isometry, whose domain is spelled L²(volume.withDensity …).
Bundling that cast as a linear isometric equivalence, TauCeti.castLpₗᵢ, is what lets an equality
of measures be composed with other isometries — for instance to feed
HilbertBasis.mapₗᵢ, which needs a genuine ≃ₗᵢ and not a cast.
Main statements #
TauCeti.coeFn_cast_lp: the cast does not move representatives.TauCeti.castLpₗᵢ: the cast as a linear isometric equivalence.
Transporting an Lp element along an equality of measures does not move its
representative. The cast is along the equality of types ↥(Lp E p μ) = ↥(Lp E p ν) induced by
μ = ν, so it acts as the identity on functions.
Equal measures give isometrically identical Lp spaces. This is cast along the equality
of types ↥(Lp E p μ) = ↥(Lp E p ν), packaged as a linear isometric equivalence so that it can be
composed with other isometries; TauCeti.coeFn_castLpₗᵢ records that it still does not move
representatives.

Instances For
The isometric cast is the transport cast. This is what lets a consumer rewrite the
transported vector itself, rather than only its representative, so no extensionality step is needed
to get at it.
The isometric cast does not move representatives. This is not itself a simp lemma:
TauCeti.castLpₗᵢ_apply followed by TauCeti.coeFn_cast_lp already reduces its left-hand side,
so simp reaches the same normal form and marking it too would only duplicate them.
The inverse of the isometric cast is the cast along the reversed equality.
