Cone-Induced Observation Congruences for Vector-Valued Quantitative Languages
Abstract
We study the observation congruences induced by rational polyhedral cones on vector-valued quantitative languages. The extreme rays of the dual cone define intrinsic covectors, and these covectors classify every incremental residual future by a finite sign cell: negative, tight, or positive along each extremal Farkas direction. The resulting carrier is the right-stable carrier of this cone-induced observation family, whose source is canonical: the restricted covector geometry of the order cone on the residual span of the language. We organize this construction through an observation-refinement correspondence, a cone-refinement calculus, and a separation between the qualitative conic observation quotient and the numerical residual carrier needed for potential certificates. A bounded-horizon fragment is fully computable by enumeration of accumulated futures, and reproducible evaluation runs show how the conic layer detects qualitative obstruction cells before numerical refinement.
