# Jamming exponent identity SM-1-H0-to-H5

## Setting

You are solving a mathematical proof problem. Establish the stated target result. Check the hypotheses, logical steps, and quantifiers in your argument as a careful referee would. End with a clear proof, or identify any gap you cannot close.

## Problem

Prove H5: Let \(0<c<1\), \(b=(1+c)/2\), and \(H_-(t)=\mathbf1_{t<0}\) for \(t\ne0\).
Let \(J\in C^1(\mathbb R)\) be \(C^4\) on each open half-line, with finite one-sided derivatives through order four at zero, and satisfy
\[
\frac c2J''=(-b+cH_-)tJ'+J-H_-+\frac{c^2}{4}(J')^2\qquad(t\ne0).
\]
For some \(C_0,q,\eta>0\), assume
\[
|J(t)-H_-(t)|+\sum_{j=1}^4|J^{(j)}(t)|
\le C_0(1+|t|)^qe^{-\eta t^2}
\]
for all sufficiently large \(|t|\). For \(t\ne0\), put \(f(t)=H_-(t)+cJ''(t)/2\).

Let \(a\in\mathbb R\). Suppose \(p\in C^1(\mathbb R)\) is strictly positive, is \(C^2\) on each open half-line, and satisfies
\[
\frac c2p''=(a-cH_-)p+(b-cH_-)tp'-\frac{c^2}{2}(p'J'+pJ'')\qquad(t\ne0).
\]
Assume \(p,p'\) grow at most polynomially.

Suppose there are \(\gamma_\infty>0\), positive scalars \(\gamma(y),A_y\), and real scalars \(I_y\ne0,Q_y\), for \(y\ge1\), such that
\[
\gamma(y)y^c\longrightarrow\gamma_\infty,\qquad
yI_y=\frac{\gamma(y)}2Q_y,
\]
\[
\frac{I_y}{A_y}\longrightarrow\int_{\mathbb R}pf^2(1-f)\,dt,\qquad
\frac{\gamma_\infty Q_y}{A_y y^{2b}}\longrightarrow\int_{\mathbb R}p(f')^2\,dt.
\]
The integrals are improper integrals over \(\mathbb R\setminus\{0\}\), and both limits are finite real numbers.

Let \(d,r:[0,\infty)\to\mathbb R\) be continuous, with \(d>0\) and \(r\ge0\). Let \(v:[0,\infty)\times\mathbb R\to\mathbb R\) be continuous and locally Lipschitz in space, and satisfy \(|v(\tau,h)|\le C_T(1+|h|)\) for \(0\le\tau\le T\), for each finite \(T\).
Suppose \(F\in C([0,\infty)\times\mathbb R)\cap C^{1,2}((0,\infty)\times\mathbb R)\) is bounded on each strip \([0,T]\times\mathbb R\) and satisfies
\[
F_\tau=d(\tau)F_{hh}+v(\tau,h)F_h+r(\tau)F(1-F),\qquad
0\le F(0,h)\le1\quad(h\in\mathbb R).
\]

Suppose there are \(\tau_n\ge0\) and maps \(h_n:\mathbb R\setminus\{0\}\to\mathbb R\) with
\[
F(\tau_n,h_n(t))\longrightarrow f(t)\qquad(t\ne0).
\]
Then
\[
a+b=1.
\]

Write the full proof to answer.md in the workspace root. Write the statements and hypotheses of any external results you cite to cited_results.md; if none are used, write 'No external results cited.' Identify any gap you cannot close.
