Defines the elementary statistical kernels used in RS cosmology: Gibbs weights, Bose and Fermi partition functions, and occupation numbers at chemical potential zero. Cosmologists citing the reduced pressure and energy integrals need these closed forms. The module is mostly definitional, with short positivity and algebraic identities proved from Real.exp facts.

claimFor dimensionless energy $t = E/T$ and occupation number $n \in \mathbb{N}$, the Gibbs weight is $w_n(t) = e^{-n t}$. The Bose and Fermi single-mode partitions are $Z_B(t) = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} e^{-n t} = (1-e^{-t})^{-1}$ and $Z_F(t) = 1+e^{-t}$, with occupations $n_B = (e^{t}-1)^{-1}$ and $n_F = (e^{t}+1)^{-1}$.

background

Recognition Science cosmology reduces the relativistic ideal-gas pressure and energy in $D=3$ to one-dimensional integrals of the form $(g/2\pi^2) T^4 \int t^2 K(t),dt$. The kernel $K$ is built from Bose or Fermi statistics at vanishing chemical potential.

This module supplies those kernels in dimensionless variables. The Gibbs weight of an $n$-quanta microstate at $t=E/T$ is $e^{-n t}$. Summing geometric series yields the Bose partition $(1-e^{-t})^{-1}$ and the two-level Fermi partition $1+e^{-t}$. Occupation numbers are the usual logarithmic derivatives.

Upstream, PhaseSpaceReduction records that the prefactor $g/(2\pi^2)$ is forced by three spatial dimensions; the present kernels are the statistical content that multiplies that geometric factor.

proof idea

Definition module with lightweight supporting lemmas. Boltzmann weights, partitions, and occupations are introduced as plain defs in terms of Real.exp. Identities such as $w_n = (e^{-t})^n$, $Z_B = (1-e^{-t})^{-1}$, and $Z_F = 1+e^{-t}$ are one-line algebraic rewrites. Positivity of the partitions follows from $e^{-t}<1$ (for $t>0$) and $e^{t}>1$. No deep analysis; Mathlib exponential inequalities close the goals.

why it matters in Recognition Science

Feeds the integrand kernels inside the RS plasma pressure and energy functionals that PhaseSpaceReduction writes as $P=(g/2\pi^2)T^4\int t^2 K(t),dt$. Without explicit Bose/Fermi partitions and occupations, those integrals remain formal. The module sits in the cosmology layer that converts the forced $D=3$ phase-space measure into thermodynamic observables, consistent with the eight-tick and dimension-forcing chain (T7–T8) that fixes the geometric prefactor. No downstream theorems are wired yet in the graph; the natural consumers are the grand-potential pressure and energy theorems.
