A syntactic endpoint for Borisov's coefficient-shape argument #

This part of Assertion V compares the canonical rank-five preimage of a coefficient d^f Q e^r with its literal two-HNN normal form. This file isolates the exact output of that comparison: the canonical word has either only positive stable letters, or one positive rule letter between two positive stable contexts.

The resulting syntactic alternatives imply the semantic SourceCoefficientShape and TargetCoefficientShape consumed by the proof of Borisov's Lemma 4.

@[reducible, inline]

The indices of the two stable generators and the three rule generators.

    The freely reduced word consisting of a positive stable word.

    Instances For

      A positive stable context, one positive rule letter, and another positive stable context.

      Instances For

        Every letter is positive. This recursive presentation is convenient for the normal-form parser, which consumes the canonical list from left to right.

          ∃ (stable : List (Fin 2)), letters = stableLetters stable

          A positive list containing no rule letter is exactly a positive stable word.

          theorem Undecidability.BorisovCoefficientShapes.letters_eq_stable_or_oneRule (letters : List (Basis × Bool)) (hpositive : AllPositive letters) (hsparse : ruleCount letters ≤ 1) :
          (∃ (stable : List (Fin 2)), letters = stableLetters stable) ∨ ∃ (left : List (Fin 2)) (right : List (Fin 2)) (i : Fin 3), letters = oneRuleLetters left right i

          Pure list-theoretic form of Borisov's page-771 dichotomy: if all letters are positive and at most one is a rule letter, the word is either stable-only or has a unique rule letter in positive stable contexts.

          Canonical sparse coefficient words #

          The precise syntactic alternative established by the normal-form comparison for a canonical rank-five preimage.

          Equations
          • One or more equations did not get rendered due to their size.
          Instances For

            A canonical source preimage of the stated syntactic form gives the exact semantic source shape.

            If the normal-form parser establishes the source syntactic alternative for every preimage, then the public source coefficient-shape theorem follows from subgroup membership.

            A local source interface for the Britton comparison. It is enough to prove that the canonical preimage has no negative letters and at most one displayed rule letter.
