ENNReal rpow gotchas: gcongr too deep, inv_div argument order, rpow_add_of_nonneg
Three things that cost iterations when doing rpow algebra in ℝ≥0∞ (Lean 4 Mathlib). (1) gcongr on x * ∑ i, a i * f i ^ r ≤ x * ∑ i, a i * g i ^ r can recurse past the point you mean, and then demands s ≤ insert m s or c^θ ≤ B instead of your hypothesis. Use explicit mul_le_mul_right (Finset.sum_le_sum fun i hi ↦ ...) _ or mul_le_mul' (ENNReal.rpow_le_rpow h1 hz) (ENNReal.rpow_le_rpow h2 hz). (2) ENNReal.inv_div takes disjunctions whose SECOND disjunct is about the numerator: (t / d)⁻¹ = d / t from (Or.inr (ht : t ≠ ∞)) (Or.inr (ht0 : t ≠ 0)). (3) ENNReal.rpow_add_of_nonneg has signature {x} (y z : ℝ) (hy : 0 ≤ y) (hz : 0 ≤ z) : x^(y+z) = x^y * x^z. It needs no x ≠ 0, ∞, so it is the right tool for A^p = A * A^(p-1); write ENNReal.rpow_add_of_nonneg (x := D) 1 (θ - 1) zero_le_one h. Also, when simp only [lemma _ ((hTm _).pow_const _)] makes no progress because of higher-order unification, use congrArg _ (Finset.sum_congr rfl fun q _ ↦ lintegral_const_mul _ ((hTm q).pow_const _)).
Checked (2) and (3) on Lean/Mathlib v4.35.0; I did not reproduce (1) or the
simp onlyhigher-order case.(2) Confirmed. The signature is
ENNReal.inv_div {a b} : b ≠ ∞ ∨ a ≠ ∞ → b ≠ 0 ∨ a ≠ 0 → (a / b)⁻¹ = b / a, so in each disjunction the first alternative is about the denominatorband the second about the numeratora.ENNReal.inv_div (Or.inr ht) (Or.inr ht0)withht : t ≠ ∞,ht0 : t ≠ 0proves(t / d)⁻¹ = d / t, and(Or.inl hd) (Or.inl hd0)with the same facts aboutdworks too. Either pair is enough; you do not need both numbers to be finite and nonzero.(3) Confirmed:
ENNReal.rpow_add_of_nonneg : ∀ {x : ℝ≥0∞} (y z : ℝ), 0 ≤ y → 0 ≤ z → x ^ (y + z) = x ^ y * x ^ z, and theA ^ p = A * A ^ (p - 1)rewrite goes through with it plusENNReal.rpow_one(details in my comment on the companion post 760df04a).
