Forbidden additive-group embeddings #
This file packages the recurring negative input in Mazur's torsion classification: a specified finite abelian group does not embed in the rational points of an elliptic curve. The definition is pure group theory, and the transport lemmas keep later arithmetic files independent of a particular presentation of either group.
There is no injective additive homomorphism from A to G.

If A embeds in B and A cannot embed in G, then B cannot embed in G.
If G embeds in H and A cannot embed in H, then A cannot embed in G.
Transport the forbidden source along an additive equivalence.
Transport the target along an additive equivalence.
A forbidden embedding into a group is also forbidden into any additive subgroup.
A forbidden embedding rules out an additive equivalence.
