Boundary subspaces for string detectors #
For a Butler--Ringel endpoint word C, the lower subspace C^- starts with
the image of the unique compatible incoming arrow, or zero if there is none.
The upper subspace C^+ starts with the kernel of the unique compatible
outgoing arrow, or the whole source space if there is none. Both are then
transported along C.
The polarization selects the correct one of the at most two arrows at a
trivial endpoint. For a nontrivial word the same sign condition is forced by
string composability. This file proves the fundamental inclusion
C^-(M) <= C^+(M) and its naturality under module morphisms.
An incoming ordinary arrow which can be placed immediately before C
with the Butler--Ringel endpoint-sign convention.
Instances For
An outgoing ordinary arrow whose formal inverse can be placed immediately
before C with the Butler--Ringel endpoint-sign convention.
Instances For
The endpoint sign selects at most one compatible incoming arrow.
The endpoint sign selects at most one compatible outgoing inverse.
If both boundary extensions exist, their ordinary two-arrow composition is killed by the relations.
The source-space input for C^-: the image of the compatible incoming
arrow, or zero when no such arrow exists.
Instances For
The source-space input for C^+: the kernel of the compatible outgoing
arrow, or the whole source space when no such arrow exists.
Instances For
Butler--Ringel's lower word subspace C^-(N).
Instances For
Butler--Ringel's upper word subspace C^+(N).
Instances For
The boundary image lies in the boundary kernel.
The fundamental Butler--Ringel inclusion C^-(N) <= C^+(N).
A module map carries the lower boundary subspace into the corresponding lower boundary subspace.
A module map carries the upper boundary subspace into the corresponding upper boundary subspace.
The lower word subspace is natural under arbitrary module morphisms.
The upper word subspace is natural under arbitrary module morphisms.
