**Motivations:**
- Provide a centralized reference for redefined technical terms
- Add a direct ToC link to the glossary for navigation
- Keep traceability in features documentation for contributors
**Root causes:**
- The v0 jeune_adulte variant lacked a glossary section and a ToC entry
**Correctifs:**
- Add `## Glossaire {#glossaire}` before annexes in `v0/livre_jeune_adulte.md`
- Add “Glossaire” entry in the table of contents
**Evolutions:**
- Add `features/selection-navigation-glossary.md` with scope, impacts and verification points
**Pages affectées:**
- v0/livre_jeune_adulte.md
- features/selection-navigation-glossary.md

| Selection without optimization: navigation aids and glossary | Équipe 4NK | 2026-02-18 |
|
Objective
Integrate the following editorial evolutions into the manuscript, without changing the underlying mathematical claims:
- expand the formal framing of selection without optimization (Chapter 14) by making explicit what is (and is not) assumed when one talks about “optimization”;
- improve navigation across layers and chapters using dependency maps at the beginning of each chapter;
- clarify, in Chapter 11, the distinction between signal (what circulates) and structure (what constrains), and define a minimal criterion for “information support”;
- add a glossary for redefined technical terms used in a precise sense.
Impacts
- Readers can identify, at chapter entry, what prerequisites are used and which layer(s) are activated ([E]/[M]/[P]/[D]).
- Chapter 14 makes the separation explicit between:
- elimination/filtration under constraints,
- conditioning / renormalization under a declared probabilistic layer,
- and decision/optimization when an objective and a choice rule are introduced.
- Chapter 11 states, in-model, when a stable/transmissible structure becomes an information-bearing variable relative to an horizon
\tau(ensemblist or probabilistic). - A glossary is available as a reference point for terms such as “futur accessible”, “verrouillage”, “compatibilité”, “signal”, “structure”.
Changes
-
Chapter 14
- add a “Critique formelle des modèles d’optimisation” subsection (separating comparability, objective, and choice rule);
- add a “Persistance par nécessité structurelle” subsection (persistence defined as existence of compatible continuations, not as maximization).
-
Navigation
- add a “Carte de dépendances” (Mermaid diagram) at the beginning of chapters 1–16.
-
Chapter 11
- add a “Signal, support et structure” section with minimal definitions and an explicit criterion (stability/transmissibility + discriminative power on futures).
-
Glossary
- add a
## Glossaire {#glossaire}section before the annexes; - update the table of contents to include a “Glossaire” entry.
- add a
Deployment notes
- No runtime deployment. This is a documentation/manuscript change.
- Ensure Mermaid rendering is available in the target Markdown renderer; otherwise, keep the diagrams as plain text blocks.
Analysis / verification
- Search for anchors and ensure the table of contents includes
#glossaireand the corresponding## Glossaire {#glossaire}anchor exists. - Ensure each chapter contains exactly one “Carte de dépendances — Ch. N”.
- Validate that Chapter 14 still uses the declared-layer discipline:
- ensemblist statements do not assume a probabilistic kernel,
- probabilistic statements are indexed by a declared
