Preservation of realized faces #
A subdivision map sends the nodes of a smaller decomposition to the old nodes, preserves their finite joins, and commutes with the affine transition maps. Its fibres map into the old polytopes and its proper points remain proper. Under these concrete conditions every old realized face restricts to a realized face whenever its pullback is nonempty. The key order inequality compares the new face index with the old one.
Map a flag point using a map on nodes and compatible affine fibre maps.
Equations
Instances For
Affine maps commuting with transitions preserve flag convex combinations when the node map preserves joins. The least-upper-bound condition is proved from the finite join of the strictly positive support.
Global commutation is a sufficient special case of commutation on the source polytopes.
Pull back an exposed face along an affine map taking one polytope into another. The pullback includes the source polytope constraint.

Instances For
Affine data comparing a smaller decomposition Ψ with Φ. Preserving
joins, transitions, and proper points suffices to preserve realized faces;
neither injectivity nor equal coordinate ranks are required.
Supremum-preserving map from refined nodes to original nodes.
Affine map from each refined polytope to its original-node coordinates.
Instances For
To construct a subdivision map it suffices to send local generators to old local generators. Convex-combination preservation then gives inclusion of the entire proper-point sets.

Equations
Instances For
The part of an old face lying in the new fibre.
Instances For
Every new proper-point base over the restricted face lies below the old face index. Join preservation gives the same inequality for their supremum.
Realization survives restriction of the polytopes and proper-point set. The new face index may move downwards; its old image still maps into the old face index, whose whole polytope maps into the realized face.
The inclusion of reduced nodes is a subdivision map. Its fibre maps are identities and every original proper point survives the restriction.
