Proposition 3.4 correctly gives the one-parameter thin-neighborhood alternative used as the base case in Shah's multidimensional induction.

Proposition 3.4No issue found

The stabilizer-or-small-time alternative is uniform on compact sets

Author-manuscript PDF pp. 10–11 (statement and proof)

For a compact subset of the algebraic stratum and fixed error, the construction chooses one neighborhood so that every unipotent orbit either has a representative fixed by the flow or spends less than the prescribed proportion of all sufficiently long intervals in the corresponding compact neighborhood.

02Proofs2 reported findingsNo proof issues found

The proof is complete through the Dani–Margulis polynomial-growth and discreteness results; the paper also states that the proposition follows directly from Dani–Margulis Theorem 7.3.

Proof of Proposition 3.4No issue found in the reviewed proof

Disjoint maximal intervals and a polynomial small-value estimate give the density bound

Author-manuscript PDF pp. 10–11

Uniqueness of the nearby representative makes the maximal intervals either equal or disjoint. On each interval, the polynomial-growth estimate bounds time in the smaller neighborhood by the prescribed fraction of the full interval. Summing disjoint intervals yields the global upper density unless the representative is fixed.

Exact recursive routeDependency scope verified

The Dani–Margulis chapter is a sufficient terminal parent

Author-manuscript PDF p. 10, opening of the proof of Proposition 3.4

The manuscript explicitly notes that Proposition 3.4 follows from Dani–Margulis Theorem 7.3. Its supplied shorter proof uses the same chapter's Propositions 3.2 and 4.2, so no additional non-book parent is required for this selected branch.
