The split-complement step in Iyama right ladders #
This file isolates the categorical diagram behind Iyama, Tau-categories I, Section 3.2. A split-monic factor of the current arrow through a right mesh, together with a padded decomposition of the next raw arrow, determines all maps and relations in one explicit right-ladder step.
A split complement, after changing the complementary object by an
isomorphism and swapping the two factors, identifies the ambient object with
Y ⊞ source.
Instances For
Invariant one-step extraction from a split mesh factor.
j is the split-monic factor of the current essential arrow through S.g.
The next raw arrow is S.f ≫ d.projection. The isomorphisms eX and eY
and the equation heNext record its arrow-category isomorphism to the padded
arrow (bNext, 0). From these data all four horizontal maps and both
relations in Iyama's displayed step are forced, and S is isomorphic to the
resulting explicit step complex.
The right endpoint is allowed to be merely isomorphic to YPrev, matching
the chosen-mesh interface of FiniteTauCategoryData.
A split-monic factor of a chosen right mesh map is right minimal, also after the recorded endpoint isomorphism.
Every radical-square perturbation of a split-monic chosen-right-mesh factor is again right minimal.
If the zero-padded arrow defined by a split mesh factor is special, then its essential component is special. This is Iyama's padded-source cancellation step.
The first map of every chosen left mesh is special. This supplies the
μ⁻ seed in Iyama's right-ladder existence theorem.
Every radical arrow into Y factors through the second map of the chosen
right mesh at Y, after applying the recorded right-endpoint isomorphism.
This is the first operation in the special-arrow construction. It follows directly from the radical approximation field of the chosen right tau-sequence; no Krull--Schmidt decomposition is involved yet.
Iyama's special-arrow split normalization.
Every special arrow is isomorphic to a zero-padded arrow b, where b is
obtained by composing a split monomorphism with the chosen right mesh map.
The essential arrow b is again special. This is the categorical content
of Tau I, 3.6.1(1), with no module-category realization.
Chosen-right-mesh specialization of the invariant one-step theorem.
Once j is the split-monic essential factor of the current arrow and the
raw successor is displayed as (bNext, 0), idempotent completeness supplies
the complement and hence the entire explicit right-ladder step.
