Intrinsic phase bounds and interval membership #
This module characterizes owner interval membership using intrinsic highest and lowest phases. It also supplies the interval-widening operations used by the deformed-slicing construction.
Enlarging both endpoints preserves owner interval membership.
A radius increase widens a centered owner interval.
Interval membership bounds the intrinsic highest phase from above.
Interval membership bounds the intrinsic lowest phase from below.
Interval membership bounds the intrinsic highest phase from below.
Interval membership bounds the intrinsic lowest phase from above.
Intrinsic phase bounds imply owner interval membership.
Membership in two owner intervals implies membership in their intersection.
For a nonzero object, owner interval membership is equivalent to bounds on both intrinsic phase extrema.
All four intrinsic extrema of a nonzero interval object lie between the interval endpoints.
A strict bound on the intrinsic lowest phase yields the corresponding strict lower phase cut.
A weak bound on the intrinsic lowest phase yields the corresponding weak lower phase cut.
A weak bound on the intrinsic highest phase yields the corresponding weak upper phase cut.
A strict bound on the intrinsic highest phase yields the corresponding strict upper phase cut.
Membership in a strict lower phase cut bounds the intrinsic lowest phase.
Membership in a weak lower phase cut bounds the intrinsic lowest phase.
Membership in a weak upper phase cut bounds the intrinsic highest phase.
Membership in a strict upper phase cut bounds the intrinsic highest phase.
A weak upper phase bound becomes a strict upper phase bound after strictly enlarging its endpoint.
In a distinguished triangle A → E → B → A[1] whose outer
terms lie in an interval of width at most one, the highest phase of the first
term is at most the highest phase of the middle term.
In a distinguished triangle A → E → B → A[1] whose outer terms lie
in an interval of width at most one, the lowest phase of the middle term is
at most the lowest phase of the third term.
In a distinguished triangle K → E → Q → K[1], an upper phase bound
on E and a compatible weak upper bound on Q bound K from above.
In a distinguished triangle K → E → Q → K[1], a lower phase bound
on E and a compatible strict lower bound on K bound Q from below.
The first vertex of a distinguished triangle stays in an open phase interval when its middle vertex is in that interval and the first and third vertices satisfy the one-sided bounds supplied by a common heart.
The intersection of strict lower and upper owner cuts is the corresponding open owner phase interval.
Open owner phase intervals are extension-closed along distinguished triangles.
Every intermediate chain object belongs to an extension-closed slicing interval when all factors of the Postnikov tower do.
An owner Postnikov tower whose factors lie in a slicing interval has its total object in that interval.
Semistable slices are extension-closed.
If every factor of an owner HN filtration has the same phase, then the ambient object lies in that semistable slice.
