Formal letters, specialization, and one scalar minor equation #
A formal letter is either a fixed vector or an independently indexed hole. The common-zero theorem is applied to the coefficients of a single pivot minor. Its equation count is the full word length plus one.
A formal letter: a fixed letter vector, or a hole indexed by one of N variable blocks.
Equations
Instances For
The three coefficients of a formal letter, as elements of the hole ring.
Equations
- KoetheCounterexample.Mortality.letterCoeffs (Sum.inl a) = fun (j : Fin 3) => MvPolynomial.C (a j)
- KoetheCounterexample.Mortality.letterCoeffs (Sum.inr b) = fun (j : Fin 3) => MvPolynomial.X (b, j)
Instances For
The multidegree of a formal letter: zero for a fixed letter, one unit of its block for a hole.
Equations
Instances For
Specialize a formal letter at an assignment of the hole variables.
Equations
- KoetheCounterexample.Mortality.specializeLetter x (Sum.inl a) = a
- KoetheCounterexample.Mortality.specializeLetter x (Sum.inr b) = fun (j : Fin 3) => x (b, j)
Instances For
The forward product of the pencil lifted along a formal word.
Equations

Instances For
A formal word in which every hole block occurs once has a specialization with no zero block that kills any specified minor, provided the number of coefficient equations is at most twice the number of blocks.
