Restricted rank and rank-determining sets #
This file formalizes the definitions preceding paper Lemma 2.21 and the
rank-one characterization used in its proof. We use the lower-bound relation
for restricted rank, which is the literal quantified content of r_A(D) ≥ k
and avoids making a second noncomputable choice of an integer rank.
The literal restricted-rank lower-bound relation from the paper:
r_A(D) ≥ k means that subtracting every effective degree-k divisor
supported on A leaves a winnable divisor.
Equations
- Bananas.restrictedRankGeq G A D k = ∀ (E : CFDiv G), effective E → CFDiv.degree E = k → Bananas.DivisorSupportedOn A E → winnable G (D - E)
Instances For
A set is rank determining when restricted rank agrees with ordinary rank
at every integer lower bound, equivalently when r_A(D) = r(D) for every
divisor D.
Equations
- Bananas.RankDetermining G A = ∀ (D : CFDiv G) (k : ℤ), Bananas.restrictedRankGeq G A D k ↔ rankGeq G D k
Instances For
Luo's rank-one characterization, in the direction used by the paper.
If the tests obtained by subtracting one chip at every member of A force
ordinary rank at least one, then A is rank determining.
Paper Lemma 2.21 (lem-BananaRDS): the two multivalent endpoints of a
banana graph form a rank-determining set.
