A causal null hypothesis states that an intervention has no effect on a specified potential-outcome contrast. A sharp causal null sets every unit's treated and untreated potential outcomes equal; an average causal null sets their population mean difference to zero.
A structural zero is an outcome value fixed at zero by the data-generating mechanism under a specified intervention or condition, rather than a zero arising by chance.
