The splitting at a weak slope cutoff #

WeakCutoff.lean cuts two classes out of an abelian category by a slope μ₀ : WithTop ℝ and proves that no map runs from the first to the second. This file supplies the other half of a torsion pair: every object is an extension of an object of F μ₀ by an object of T μ₀.

The object is cut where its own slopes cross μ₀. The slopes strictly decrease, so the indices whose slope exceeds μ₀ form an initial segment; exists_crossIndex (#789) names its length k. Cutting the chain there gives

The two boundary cases are not special pleading: at k = 0 the sub is ⊥, at k = n the quotient is the cokernel of an isomorphism, and in each the missing half is zero and lands in both classes by isZero_mem_*.

What this completes #

WeakTruncation.lean shipped exists_subobject_hnTors — the torsion subobject alone — and said explicitly that the torsion-free quotient was unavailable because tailAt did not port. It does now, so the honest half-statement is superseded by the full one here, and the weak TorsionPair follows in Weak/Tilting/TorsionPair/WeakStabilityFunction.lean.

The splitting. Every object has a subobject in T μ₀ whose cokernel is in F μ₀, obtained by cutting a weak HN filtration at its crossing index.
