Anti-exchange for quotient closure #
This file formalizes the trace-and-radical proof of anti-exchange from the manuscript. The proof works on a chosen indecomposable skeleton and assumes that each indecomposable endomorphism ring is Artinian. That is the exact ring-theoretic input used to make its Jacobson radical nilpotent.
The sum of the ranges of all maps from one indecomposable representative.
Instances For
A singleton trace is already generated by maps from the single indecomposable, rather than requiring maps from arbitrary finite sums of its copies.
The selected trace is fully invariant under every underlying endomorphism, not just an endomorphism already presented categorically.
Postcomposition sends the point trace of i into the point trace
of i.
If x and y index nonisomorphic representatives, every
endomorphism of X factoring through Y belongs to the Jacobson
radical of End(X).
Substituting generation of Y by C and X into all maps
Y → X shows that the point trace of Y in X is generated by the
trace of C and the Jacobson radical of End(X).
Quotient closure satisfies anti-exchange whenever the relevant endomorphism rings are Artinian.
Under the Artinian endomorphism-ring hypothesis, quotient closure is a convex geometry.
The manuscript's finite-dimensional-over-a-field hypothesis supplies the Artinian endomorphism rings required for quotient anti-exchange.
Quotient closure is a convex geometry for the finite-dimensional module setup used in the manuscript.
