The primitive projective boundary is an incidence category #
The root projective and the non-root projectives indexed by T form the
incidence category of the poset obtained by adjoining a new least element to
the dual of T. This file records that statement without introducing a
second category: boundaryLE q r is exactly the condition for a morphism
from the boundary object indexed by q to the one indexed by r.
The normalized morphisms are the root identity, the chosen maps P ⟶ P_t,
and the normalized incidence maps P_t ⟶ P_s. Every boundary morphism is a
unique scalar multiple of the corresponding normalized morphism, and all
off-incidence Hom spaces vanish.
The root identity and each chosen P ⟶ P_t span the corresponding
root-to-boundary Hom space.
The normalized boundary morphism attached to an incidence relation.
Instances For
Every normalized boundary incidence morphism is nonzero.
There are no morphisms from a non-root boundary projective back to the
root. A nonzero such map together with P ⟶ P_t would give a directed
two-cycle between distinct surviving labels.
Off the augmented incidence relation, the corresponding boundary Hom space is zero.
Every morphism along the augmented incidence relation is a scalar multiple of its normalized incidence morphism.
The normalized boundary morphisms have literal incidence composition.
The normalized boundary morphism of a reflexive incidence relation is the identity.
Scalar multiples of a normalized boundary incidence morphism, as a linear map from the coefficient field.
Instances For
Every on-incidence boundary Hom space is canonically one-dimensional, with the normalized incidence morphism as basis vector.
Instances For
Boundary coordinates multiply under composition exactly as incidence coefficients do.
