L² Sufficiency Theorem under Functional Regime Switching: X-Dependent Convex Combination, Detection Information Loss, Spectral Weighted Sufficiency, and Detection Resolution–Information Lower Bound Duality
This paper proves the sufficiency direction under the L² functional regime switching model: if a regime switch exists, then the statistical structure can detect it. Three core results are established. Theorem 1 (L² Sufficiency Theorem): under the local continuity assumption A0′ and the conditional non-degeneracy assumption A0″, the L² version of the unified shape function h_{L²}(τ) = ||Δ̄f(τ)||²_{L²(P_X)} attains a global unique maximum at the true regime boundary τ*. Theorem 2 (Multi-Regime Sufficiency Theorem): the functional-space BIC attains a global minimum at the true boundary set B*, with complete proofs covering underfitting, overfitting, and mislocation, where the effective parameter dimension is d_n. Theorem 3 (Spectral Weighted Sufficiency Theorem): for any α ∈ [0,1], when the fractional power kernel K_α satisfies the multiplier algebra condition and Δf ∈ H_{K_α}, the spectral weighted unified shape function h_α(τ) = ∑_{k=1}^{∞} a_k(τ)²/λ_k^α attains a global maximum at τ*; strict uniqueness holds for α=0 under A0″, and for α ∈ (0,1] under the multiplier contraction condition. Lemma 2 provides a verifiable sufficient condition for the multiplier contraction condition under the Gaussian kernel, and Appendix A gives the complete rigorous proof. Lemma 1 (X-Dependent Convex Combination Lemma) is the core technical contribution of this paper: under A0′, A0″(a), and the overlap condition, the conditional mean function of the mixed subsample is an X-dependent convex combination. Corollary 1 (Detection Information Loss) defines the information loss quantity I(τ) = C - h_{L²}(τ), explicitly I(τ) = ∫_X (1 - w(τ,x)²)(Δf(x))² dP_X(x), and proves that I(τ) > 0 holds for any τ ≠ τ*. Theorem 4 (Uniform Convergence of ĥ_{L²}) gives the finite-sample uniform convergence rate of ĥ_{L²}(τ). Theorem 5 (Argmax Consistency) proves τ̂_n → τ* under the cusp separation condition. Theorem 6 (Convergence Rate) gives the O_p(r_n) convergence rate of τ̂_n. Theorem 7 (BIC Selection Consistency) proves that the boundary set selected by multi-regime BIC converges in probability to B*. Proposition (Density Sufficient Condition for A0″(a)) gives a verifiable sufficient condition for non-degeneracy of the conditional Gram matrix. Proposition (Detection Resolution–Information Lower Bound Duality) quantitatively connects detection geometry with the estimation information limit for the first time. Proposition (Positive Semi-Definiteness of the Information Loss Matrix) further enriches the geometric structure of information loss. This paper explicitly states that A0 (T ⊥ X) has been replaced by A0′.
