Signed window profiles on subdivision slots #
Many compact Dhar calculations are specified by assigning an integral value to each core vertex and, on every oriented subdivision slot, allowing one interval of constant integral slope. Outside that interval the script is constant. Endpoint compatibility is the only gluing condition.
This file turns that description into an actual firing script and computes
its principal divisor solely from the signed window endpoints. The slope is
allowed to be any integer; the -1, 0, and 1 profiles used in genus four
are special cases.
One numerical window #
Consecutive window values have the advertised slope.
Compatible profiles and their firing scripts #
One signed slope window on every slot, together with compatible values at the core vertices. A zero slope or a degenerate window represents a constant slot.
The integer potential value at each core vertex of the window profile.
The initial path coordinate of the constant-slope window on each slot.
The final path coordinate of each window, between its start and the slot length.
The integer slope inside each slot's window, compatible with the difference of the endpoint potentials.
Instances For
Numerical value of the profile along one oriented slot.

Instances For
The profile script agrees with its numerical path value at every named position, including both core endpoints.
Every emitted unit step has the profile's advertised slope.
Exact principal divisor #
The initial endpoint of a slot's signed slope window.

The global principal divisor is the sum of the independent divergences of the signed slope windows on its subdivision slots.
At a named position of one slot, its edge divergence is the numerical divergence of the two adjacent window slopes.
One slot contributes exactly a positive chip at the start of its signed window and a negative chip at the stop, both weighted by its integral slope. The statement also covers degenerate and zero-slope windows.
Exact signed-endpoint formula for the principal divisor of a compatible window profile. This is the compact replay theorem: a checker only needs to validate the profile bounds and endpoint compatibility, not a full potential at every subdivision vertex.
