Regions of positive planes, and the orthogonality loci that meet them #

OrthogonalityFiniteness.lean counts the spherical orthogonality loci through one positive plane. This file does it for a family, which is what a local-finiteness statement about the period domain needs.

The constant is a hypothesis, and this file says why #

The pointwise count runs on the coercivity constant of -Q on Wᗮ. That constant depends on W and degrades to 0 as the plane approaches the boundary of the positive-plane locus, so a family of planes inherits no constant from its members. This is one of the two gaps in Bridgeland's own §11 argument.

PlaneRegion therefore carries coercivity as an explicit field, exactly as Walls/Spherical/Finiteness.lean does for BoundedRegion in the other chart. It is never derived from boundedness of the region.

And a criterion that inhabits it #

A structure whose hypothesis nobody can satisfy proves nothing. exists_uniform_coercivity supplies the field for a compact family of spanning pairs: orthogonality is a closed condition, so the unit vectors orthogonal to the planes of the family form a compact set, -Q is continuous and positive there, and its minimum is the constant. ofCompactPairs packages that as a PlaneRegion.

The family is parametrized by spanning pairs rather than by the Grassmannian, which keeps everything inside the linear algebra already in the tree.

Main results #

As in PositivePlane.lean, everything is about an arbitrary real quadratic space and its lattices, and no geometry is asserted.

A compact family of positive planes has a uniform coercivity constant.

The pairs of the family and the unit vectors orthogonal to the plane they span form a compact set — orthogonality is closed by continuous_polar, and the sphere is compact. -Q is continuous and, by neg_of_mem_orthogonal, positive there, so it attains a positive minimum. Homogeneity extends the bound off the sphere.

A region of positive planes carrying a uniform coercivity constant.

coercivity is a field on purpose: it does not follow from boundedness of the region, and deriving it is the mistake §11 makes. Use ofCompactPairs to build one.

      The orthogonalityLocus classes of a region are bounded, by the one constant the region carries.

      Only finitely many spherical classes of a lattice have a orthogonalityLocus meeting the region. Bridgeland's local finiteness in the period-domain chart, with the uniform constant explicit.

      The criterion, packaged. A compact family of spanning pairs is a region, with the constant supplied by exists_uniform_coercivity rather than assumed.

        The empty region. It inhabits the structure and proves nothing else — every statement about it is vacuous. ofCompactPairs is the witness that carries content; this one is here so the difference is on the record.
