A finite-data criterion for Feigenbaum convergence in real-analytic unimodal families
We give a finite-data criterion for Feigenbaum parameter scaling in real-analytic unimodal families with a quadratic critical point. Implementation requires supplied holomorphic domains, outward evaluators, mixed jets, and Cauchy majorants. The hypotheses separate a physical restrictive return, exact analytic conjugacy, function-space entry, and transversality to the true stable manifold. An independently validated infinite-dimensional block encloses the fixed point around a degree-64 polynomial and proves 4.6692016091024<\delta<4.6692016091036. A full-function central flip marker and a local analytic argument yield a_{d+j}-a_\infty=C\delta^{-j}(1+O((4/5)^j)), C\ne0. The common pipeline certifies quadratic, sine, Ricker, Gaussian, exponential-quadratic, and Hurwitz instances. Separate local flips are certified through pre-flip period 4096; effective tail bounds start at family-dependent exponents K_0=20 to 29. The intervening finite-to-tail gap remains open. We give outward amplitude intervals, but not an optimal onset or a numerical relative-remainder prefactor. The exponential-quadratic example is conjugate to a reparameterized Ricker family. Standard analytic invariant-manifold theory remains a cited input. MSC 2020: Primary 37E20, 37E05; Secondary 37F25, 65G20, 11M35. Version 1.0.0 (2026-09-06).
