Effective monotonicity of complete linear systems #

This file records the elementary monotonicity calculus for complete linear systems of Weil divisors. If D ≤ D' coefficientwise, then adding the effective difference D' - D sends |D| into |D'|; in particular nonemptiness of complete linear systems is monotone under the divisor order.

This is the divisor-level bookkeeping behind the later symmetric-power and Abel-map lane in the Jacobian roadmap: increasing an effective divisor by fixed effective base conditions should not destroy the existence of effective representatives. It advances TauCetiRoadmap/JacobianChallenge/README.md, Layer A, "Divisors on a curve" and "Degree", as a clean prerequisite for the Layer C/D Abel-map construction from symmetric powers. No external mathematics is vendored; the proofs reuse Tau Ceti's existing complete-linear-system addition API and the coefficientwise order on formal Weil divisors.

Monotonicity for the divisor order #

If D ≤ D', then translating a member of |D| by the effective difference D' - D gives a member of |D'|.

The order-induced translation map sends |D| into |D'| whenever D ≤ D'.

Nonemptiness of complete linear systems is monotone for the divisor order.
