To minimize $E_j(\theta )=2k_j-2{\ell }_j(\theta )$ over models with different parameter dimensions, sample from a target proportional to $w_j{e}^{-E_j(\theta )/(2T)}$ and cool $T$. A dimension-matching proposal augments the smaller model by auxiliary variables, transforms them bijectively into the larger parameter vector, and includes the proposal probability density function and absolute Jacobian determinant in the Metropolis–Hastings acceptance probability. For a positive Poisson mean $\lambda$ and normal parameters $(\mu ,v)$, one convenient transformation isIts absolute Jacobian determinant is one. If the forward and reverse model-jump selection probabilities are $b$ and $d$, the Poisson-to-normal ratio isThe reverse ratio is its reciprocal at the inverse map. This enforces detailed balance. When the target is proper and the annealing chain explores it adequately, the low-temperature laws concentrate on the minimum Akaike information criterion, rather than the maximum marginal model evidence. Likelihoods compared across models must describe the same observed data with a compatible reference measure.

A triple integral is a multiple integral over a three-dimensional region. For a mass density $\rho$, ${\iiint }_D\rho dV$ gives the total mass, while ${\iiint }_{D}1dV$ gives its volume. Iterated one-dimensional integration is justified by Fubini's theorem under absolute integrability, and a change of variables includes the absolute Jacobian determinant in the volume element.

Consider the original two-electron example obtained by taking $N=2$ in the Laughlin wavefunction, with no additional polynomial for the centre of mass. Introduce $Z=(z_1+z_2)/2$, relative complex coordinate $w=z_1-z_2$, separation $r=|w|$, and dimensionless separation $u=r/{\ell }_B$. Since $|z_1{|}^2+|z_2{|}^2=2|Z{|}^2+|w{|}^2/2$, the probability density factorizes:Integrating out $Z$ leaves an isotropic relative probability density. Define $D_m(u)$ per unit dimensionless area and $p_m(u)$ per unit dimensionless separation:The physical areal probability density is $D_m(r/{\ell }_B)/{\ell }_B^2$. The probability of a separation between $r$ and $r+dr$ is $p_m(r/{\ell }_B)dr/{\ell }_B$. The extra $u$ comes from the Jacobian determinant in polar coordinates: a thin annulus has area $2\pi rdr$. Omitting that factor changes the question being answered.

Both wavefunction normalization and the peak shift can be checked exactly. The substitution $t=u^2/4$ gives the Gamma function integralFor $m>0$, logarithmic differentiation givesConsequently the areal maximum lies at $u=2\sqrt{m}$, while the most probable separation lies farther out, at $u=\sqrt{4m+2}$. For $m=1$ these are $2$ and $\sqrt{6}\simeq 2.449$; for $m=3$, $\sqrt{12}\simeq 3.464$ and $\sqrt{14}\simeq 3.742$. The same substitution gives $⟨u^2⟩=4(m+1)$, so the root mean square separations are $\sqrt{8}$ and $4$ respectively. The distinction between a probability density maximum and a radial maximum therefore has a directly calculable geometric origin.

This two-electron model explains exchange and pair avoidance. It does not establish a nonzero many-particle spectral gap, an extended quantum Hall plateau, or the topological properties of a fluid in the thermodynamic limit. Those require additional many-electron reasoning and experimental tests.

After integrating the overall orientation of a scalar-parent three-body decay, the Lorentz-invariant phase space is constant in two pairwise squared invariant masses. The two-body factorization $d{\Phi }_3=dsd{\Phi }_2(M;\sqrt{s},m_2)d{\Phi }_2(\sqrt{s};m_1,m_3)/(2\pi )$ and the relative-angle Jacobian give the displayed density. The event density includes $|\mathcal{M}{|}^2/(2M)$ and need not be flat: a resonance produces bands. Identical-particle counting supplies its usual global symmetry factor.

Under a smooth locally invertible coordinate map $\Phi$ into Euclidean space, the positive volume element in a multiple integral is multiplied by the absolute Jacobian determinant. In three-dimensional spherical coordinates, $dV=r^2\sin \theta drd\theta d\phi$; in cylindrical coordinates, $dV=rdrd\theta dz$. The absolute value distinguishes positive integration measure from a signed orientation convention.

With constant porosity $P$ and $X=x\tan \theta$, $Y=y\tan \theta$, a translating frame $\xi =X-T$, $\eta =Y$ has area Jacobian determinant $dxdy={\cot }^2\theta d\xi d\eta$. Actual fluid volume is $P\iint hdxdy$, proving the displayed normalization. Replacing the cotangent factor by a tangent factor is incompatible with these coordinates except at a slope of $\pi /4$.

For a smooth local diffeomorphism $a:{\mathbb{R}}^d\to {\mathbb{R}}^d$, each inverse branch contributes an inverse Jacobian determinant in the area formula. Their sum is the weighted inverse multiplicity. A lower determinant bound controls each branch separately, not the number of branches. Bounded weighted inverse multiplicity is sufficient for dispersion with a nonlinear velocity map.

Let $G$ be a connected compact Lie group, $T$ a maximal torus, and $W$ its Weyl group. With normalized Haar measures and $D(t)={\prod }_{\alpha >0}(1-e^{-\alpha }(t))$, every continuous class function satisfies ${\int }_{G}f(g)dg=|W{|}^{-1}{\int }_{T}f(t)|D(t){|}^{2}dt$. For a general continuous function, replace $f(t)$ by its average ${\int }_{G/T}f(gt{g}^{-1})d(gT)$. Conjugation from $G/T\times T$ covers the regular elements $|W|$ times, and its real Jacobian determinant is $|D(t){|}^2$.
