The Radó crossing weld and chart induction #
This file completes the chart-induction framework developed in ChartInductionCore. It constructs
the crossing weld, packages the one-chart induction step, and assembles the final triangulation.
Shared implementation of the Moise crossing weld once the chart straightening is certified to preserve the ambient manifold-boundary stratum.
In the genuine crossing case (the chart core is not yet covered, and the absorbed region is not
inside the chart patch), the adjusted old complex and the chart patch admit a common welded
presentation: a common vertex type carrying both face families, with embeddings that agree
exactly on the shared realization, satisfy the combinatorial-surface bound jointly, and whose
united image contains A ∪ c.core in its topological interior.
The proof straightens the old complex over the
chart overlap by the locally finite controlled polygonal replacement over
adaptiveOverlapGraphRealization with tolerance vanishing at the overlap frontier
(replaceOnOpen/frontierGlue), refine the straightened trace and the fixed patch complex to
a common plane subdivision (CommonSubdivision, Moise's conditions (e)-(h)), and read off the
welded presentation. The finite compact-collar theorem cannot replace this vanishing-tolerance
construction, because continuity across the overlap frontier depends on the error tending to
zero there.
The bordered crossing weld. The relative straightening preserves the ambient boundary stratum, and the synchronized source/target presentations retain it as a simplicial face.
Theorem boundary (Moise Ch. 8, Thm. 3, the induction step; bordered version).
Given a partial triangulation satisfying the Radó invariant for the absorbed region A, and one
more boundary-faithful chart, the chart's core can be absorbed: there is a partial triangulation
satisfying the invariant for A ∪ c.core.
Moise's proof of the step: work in the chart's model coordinates; take a polyhedral neighborhood
of the part of the built complex meeting the chart (Thm. 8.2); adjust it by a PL approximation of
the chart-transition homeomorphism (Thm. 6.3, pl_approximation_two_manifold) so that it meets a
fine complex containing the model core simplicially (conditions (a)-(h)); glue (Thm. 7.6). The
polygonal Jordan and Schoenflies theorems enter through Thm. 6.3.
Hypothesis refinement is expected here (see RadoInvariant); conclusion weakening is not.
Shared finite Radó induction assembler. It turns any clean one-chart absorption step with the
full RadoInvariant conclusion into an end-to-end geometric triangulation.
