2792 — Theta Outer-Shell Addition Drives the Hostile Zero Monotonically to the Seam

For the hostile branch of

$$F_c(z)=\cosh z+c\cosh 2z, \qquad 0<c<1,$$

write (z_-(c)=a(c)+i\pi). Exact differentiation proves

$$a'(c)<0, \qquad a(0+)=\infty, \qquad a(1-)=0.$$

Positive outer-shell addition therefore drives the zero monotonically from spectral infinity onto the seam. This supplies a constructive prototype for a theta completion flow, with sharp falsifier

$$\operatorname{Re}z\operatorname{Re}z'>0.$$
