Unbiased prediction-error identity for ordinary least squares

If $H$ is the rank-$p$ orthogonal projection onto a normal linear model's column space, thenAdding $2p{\sigma }^2$ gives $\Vert (I-H)\mu {\Vert }^2+(n+p){\sigma }^2$, so Mallows' $C_p$ is unbiased for independent-copy prediction error even when the projection model is misspecified.
