Linear-algebra core of the Bombieri--Stepanov argument #
This file isolates the rank-nullity step from the geometry. A finite
controlled-degree space V has two restriction maps. If the second map has
target dimension smaller than V, while the first map is injective, there is
an auxiliary vector which vanishes under the second restriction but remains
nonzero under the first. Once the first restriction is known to lie in a
one-point Riemann space and to vanish at every rational intersection point,
the exhaustive divisor zero count bounds the number of those points.
Rank-nullity produces an auxiliary vector killed by second but not by
the injective map first.
Riemann-space lower bounds and a target upper bound imply the strict dimension inequality needed by rank-nullity on a tensor product.

Abstract Stepanov zero-count theorem.
The hypotheses after rank-nullity are exactly the geometric obligations left to an application: the first restriction has controlled poles, the selected places are distinct, and vanishing of the second restriction forces positive order of the first restriction at each selected place.
