Shifting an internal grading #
An internal grading may be regraded by a fixed shift c, so that the degree-p piece of the
shifted grading is the degree-(p + c) piece of the original one. The underlying module is
unchanged, and the shifted family is again an internal direct sum: reindexing the homogeneous
pieces along an equivalence of degrees only permutes the summands of ⨁ p, G.piece p.
This is the suspension sA of the A∞ conventions of the DGAInfinity roadmap, seen on the
internal presentation of a graded module. The suspension leaves the underlying module unchanged
and reindexes its homogeneous pieces.

The shift of an internal grading by c: its degree-p piece is the degree-(p + c) piece of
the original grading. The underlying module is unchanged.
Instances For
Shifting twice shifts by the sum of the two amounts.
The Koszul twist of parameter q for a grading shifted by c differs from the unshifted
twist by the constant sign (-1)^(q * c): a homogeneous element of degree p has degree p - c
after the shift.
The degree-one Koszul twist of the suspended grading is the negative of the unsuspended one.
Shifting the source and the target internal grading by the same amount leaves the degree of a homogeneous linear map unchanged.
