Relative degrees of scheme-theoretic Weil divisors #
This file specializes WeilDivisor.weightedDegree to the residue-degree weights associated to a
scheme morphism. For a curve over a field, applied to its structure morphism, this is the divisor
degree Σ_x [κ(x) : k] · ord_x.
The composition formula records how these weights change through successive scheme morphisms. This supplies the residue-field-weighted divisor degree required in Layer A of the Jacobian challenge roadmap.
The degree of a scheme-theoretic Weil divisor weighted by the residue degrees of f.

Instances For
The relative degree is the finite sum of coefficients times residue degrees.
A prime divisor has relative degree equal to the residue degree of its generic point.
Relative degree along a composite uses the product of the successive residue degrees.
An effective divisor has nonnegative relative degree: residue degrees are nonnegative.
