Dilation Operator on L²(ℝ₊, dx) #
Defines the dilation operator U_a g(x) = g(x/a) on L² with multiplicative Haar measure.
Proves unitarity (isometry + surjectivity via U_a⁻¹ = U_{a⁻¹}), composition properties,
and Cauchy-Schwarz bounds.

The dilation operator U_a on functions RPos -> C, defined by
(U_a g)(x) = g(x / a) for a in R_+*.
Reference: lamportform.tex, equation (1): (U_a g)(x) := g(x/a) for a > 0.

Instances For
Dilation at 1 is the identity.
Dilation is multiplicative: U_a . U_b = U_{ab}.
U_{a^{-1}} is the inverse of U_a.
The dilation operator is isometric on L^2(dx): ||U_a g||_2 = ||g||_2. This follows from Haar invariance: d(x/a) = d*x.

The Cauchy-Schwarz bound: |<g, U_a g>| <= ||g||_2^2.
Reference: lamportform.tex, line 118-119: |<g, U_a g>| <= ||g||_2 * ||U_a g||_2 = ||g||_2^2.
