Beta bounds after rejecting all projective-injective socles #
For the family of all non-simple indecomposable projective-injective right modules, every nonprojective mesh of the simultaneous socle quotient is an unchanged ambient mesh with no projective-injective middle summand. Thus the left/right beta boundary estimate bounds its total middle arity.
This is the occurrence-level content of Auslander--Reiten, Uniserial functors, Lemma 4.2, separated from the later uniserial-functor argument.
The basic family of all non-simple indecomposable projective-injective right modules. Simple projective-injectives cannot occur in a nontrivial almost-split middle term, so this is the full family relevant to socle reduction.
Instances For
Every selected label in the all-projective-injective family is injective.
Every selected label in the all-projective-injective family is non-simple.
An injective occurrence in a minimal right almost-split middle term cannot be simple. Indeed, a nonzero map from a simple object is monic, and injectivity would split that irreducible component.
A simple projective has zero radical, hence its projective-boundary right middle term has arity zero.
After simultaneously rejecting the socles of all non-simple projective-injective indecomposables, every nonprojective quotient mesh has total middle arity bounded by any common bound on the ambient right and left beta invariants.
If the ambient beta invariant is at most two, then every right mesh of the simultaneous quotient by all non-simple projective-injective socles has total middle arity at most two, including the new projective replacement vertices.
