Résumé

We apply the mesoscopic coarse-graining framework of~\cite{OsanoMeso,OsanoExtensivity,OsanoPerturbation} to three problems in Cosmological Perturbation Theory and the backreaction debate. \textbf{(i)}~A non-perturbative lower bound on the kinematic backreaction $\QD$ in the Buchert equations, derived from the Gibbs--Bogoliubov inequality: $\QD$ cannot be suppressed below its linear-perturbation-theoryvalue, regardless of the degree of non-linearity, provided the system satisfies stability and temperedness. \textbf{(ii)}~The radius of convergence of the mesoscopic cumulant expansion equals $O(\kNL^{-1})$, the non-linear scale of the matter power spectrum, providing a KAM-theorem explanation for why standard perturbation theory fails at $k>\kNL$. \textbf{(iii)}~For a Gaussian matter field, the inter-cell mutual information is exactly $I(i,j)=-\tfrac{1}{2}\ln(1-r_{ij}^2)$, gauge-invariant at linear order and computable directly from the observed $P(k)$; for $Λ$CDM at $\ell=50\,\mathrm{Mpc}\,h^{-1}$, $I_{\rm NN}\approx 0.10$.The total mutual information gives a data-computable measure of the backreaction correction to the FRW free energy. The gauge proof holds at linear order; the KAM identification is exact; the backreaction bound rests on a stated conjecture.
