Barycentric Subdivision Iter #

The N-fold barycentric subdivision chain map sd^N, defined by sd^0 = 𝟙 and sd^(N+1) = sd ≫ sd^N.

Equations
Instances For

    The degree-n component of sd^N as an R-linear map.

    Equations
    • One or more equations did not get rendered due to their size.
    Instances For

      In iterate 0, the degree-wise map is the identity.

      The degree-wise successor formula (sd^(N+1))_n c = (sd^N)_n (sd_n c).

      sd^N commutes with the boundary (degree-wise, pointwise form). This is the chain-map condition of barycentricSubdivisionIterChainMap.

      The explicit accumulated homotopy operator H^(N) = Σ_{r=0}^{N-1} (sd^r) ∘ H, defined by H^(0) = 0 and H^(N+1)_n = H^(N)_n + (sd^N)_{n+1} ∘ H_n.

      Equations
      Instances For

        The degree-wise "H ∘ ∂" term of the iterated homotopy formula. In degree 0 it is 0; in degree m+1 it is H^(N)_m (∂_m c). This matches the library's index convention ∂ : C_{n+1} → C_n = singularBoundary R X n, exactly as homotopyBoundaryTerm did for the one-step formula.

        Equations
        Instances For

          Recursion for the boundary term. Increasing the iterate by one adds the contribution (sd^N)_n (H(∂ c)) from the one-step boundary term.

          Every iterate of barycentric subdivision is chain-homotopic to the identity.

          Instances For

            The iterated barycentric subdivision boundary formula.

            For every singular chain c ∈ C_n(X; R) and every N,

            c - sd^N(c) = ∂ (H^(N) c) + H^(N)(∂ c),
            

            where sd^N = barycentricSubdivisionIterLinearMap, H^(N) = barycentricSubdivisionIterHomotopyLinearMap is the explicit accumulated homotopy, ∂ = singularBoundary, and the term H^(N)(∂ c) is packaged degree-wise as barycentricSubdivisionIterHomotopyBoundaryTerm (which is H^(N)_{n-1}(∂_{n-1} c) in positive degree and 0 in degree 0, matching the library's index convention ∂ : C_{n+1} → C_n = singularBoundary R X n).
