contents We prove a volume-uniform effective-Hamiltonian theorem for bounded finite-range quantum spin systems on possibly infinite lattices. For any finite target region, we construct an energy-truncated Hamiltonian and prove a volume-uniform spectral-overlap bound controlling the leakage of its low-energy spectral subspace into the high-energy spectral subspace of the original Hamiltonian. The bound may contain non-exponential spectral-window terms, but its cutoff-dependent remainder decays exponentially in the cutoff. In finite volume, this yields stability of low-lying eigenvalues, with eigenvalue errors controlled by the exponentially small cutoff-dependent remainder. In infinite volume, we prove the corresponding spectral-overlap estimate in the GNS representation of an infinite-volume ground state. Thus, for bounded finite-range interactions, we extend and strengthen the effective-Hamiltonian mechanism of Arad, Kuwahara, and Landau by replacing the finite-volume operator-norm formulation with a volume-uniform spectral-overlap formulation applicable in the thermodynamic limit.
