Records and Responses: Dressing-blind theorems for monitored quantum instruments

Summary and scope

Specified monitored quantum instruments distinguish latched record observables from response observables. Under the paper’s stated absorbing-pointer and dressing assumptions, the finite models establish invariance properties for record statistics while responses can change. Pole, contact-term and accumulation statements retain the hypotheses of their individual models. The calculations do not imply that every physical observable has this form, or derive a physical coupling from a record count.
