Helper for Theorem 6.30.17: under global properness, polyhedrality of the dual adjoint transports back across the biadjoint correspondence to polyhedrality of the original primal bifunction.

Helper for Theorem 6.30.17: the finite polyhedral dual branch is a Chapter 29 generalized convex program for the negated adjoint bifunction, and its generalized Kuhn--Tucker vector is exactly a Chapter 30 dual Kuhn--Tucker vector.

Helper for Theorem 6.30.17: the two bounded dual branches share the same remaining transport problem from bounded Chapter 27 data for uStar ↦ fenchelConjugate m (convexProgramAssociatedWith F.1) (-uStar) to primal strict consistency.

Helper for Theorem 6.30.17: if the primal optimal set is nonempty and bounded but the primal value is still non-finite, then the only remaining case is the +∞ corner. In positive dimension that forces the minimum set to be all of space, contradicting boundedness; in dimension 0 the closed-slice identity rewrites the singleton primal value directly to the dual value, so the existing value-equality normality sink applies.

Helper for Theorem 6.30.17: the remaining primal-side terminal branches are exactly the polyhedral primal branch (e) together with the bounded primal sublevel and bounded primal optimal-set branches (g) and (i).

Helper for Theorem 6.30.17: the remaining dual-side terminal branches are exactly the polyhedral dual branch (f) together with the bounded dual superlevel and bounded dual optimal-set branches (h) and (j).
