Primes¶
- Correspondence Principle
- Batterman's work on asymptotic reasoning illuminates this issue: correspondence is not about pointwise limits but about asymptotic expansions that preserve the structure of the effective theory.
This sourceArgues that inter-theory reduction is about asymptotic expansions preserving effective-theory structure, not pointwise limits; supports the 'which older theory / asymptotic vs pointwise' claim in T2 (D13-105).

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.
Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
