Equivariance for normal deck-subgroup fibre quotients #

For a normal subgroup H ≤ deck p, the existing free-transitive fibre-action equivalence identifies the quotient of a fibre by H with the normalizer quotient N(H) / H. This file records how that identification, and its regular preconnected-cover specialization, interacts with the descended N(H) / H action on the fibre quotient.

The orientation is important: the existing fibre-quotient equivalence sends the orbit class of φ • e to the normalizer-quotient class of φ⁻¹. Consequently, acting on the fibre quotient by a normalizer-quotient element a corresponds, under this equivalence, to right multiplication by a⁻¹.

These results feed the identification of the deck group of the cover attached to H with N(H) / H, whose normal case is a quotient by H.

Under the normal-subgroup fibre quotient equivalence, the descended normalizer-quotient action is right multiplication by the inverse. This is the representative-free form of the convention that φ • e maps to the class of φ⁻¹.

For a regular preconnected covering map, the normal-subgroup fibre quotient equivalence turns the descended normalizer-quotient action into right multiplication by the inverse.

Applying the inverse normal-subgroup fibre quotient equivalence after right multiplication by a⁻¹ is the same as acting by a on the fibre quotient.

For a regular preconnected covering map, applying the inverse normal-subgroup fibre quotient equivalence after right multiplication by a⁻¹ is the same as acting by a on the fibre quotient.
