Abstract
This article aims to continue the study of geometric optics expansions for hyperbolic boundary value problems in the quarter-space initiated in [2]. The motivations are linked to the range of effective applicability of the theorem establishing the existence of the geometric optics expansions. Compared to [2], we ameliorate the range of applicability by adding two distinct features. The first one is that now we can consider glancing modes in the expansions by using the results of [17]. The second one, which is proper to quarter-space problems, is that we can now consider rather “complicated” self-interaction phenomena. It is a first step in the study of geometric optics expansions in bounded domains. A direct consequence of the first point of amelioration is that no condition on glancing modes is required to intialize the construction of the geometric optics expansion. It seems to indicate that the expected condition characterizing the strong well-posedness of corner problems, established in [14], can be relaxed to the hyperbolic component of the stable subspace only.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
