Row Hodge lower polygons of principal-minor series #
Let r : ι → ℝ be a bounded row majorant of a square matrix A, with
‖A i j‖ ≤ r i, and let r* be its decreasing rearrangement
(TauCeti.decreasingRearrangement). For a base b > 1, the row Hodge polygon
TauCeti.rowHodgePolygon b r is the height sequence
H n = ∑ k < n, -logb b (r* k)
on the integers n for which r* 0, …, r* (n - 1) are positive, and ⊤ elsewhere. Its
finite domain is [0, m], where m is the number of positive entries of r, possibly
infinite (TauCeti.rowHodgePolygon_ne_top_iff), and its slopes -logb b (r* k) are
nondecreasing, so it is convex (TauCeti.isConvexSeq_rowHodgePolygon).
Fix a real additive valuation v on a normed field with ‖x‖ = b ^ (-v x) for x ≠ 0; a
normalisation ‖x‖ = b ^ (-e w x) with e > 0 is the case v = e w. The coefficient estimate
‖cₙ‖ ≤ ∏ k < n, r* k of Matrix.norm_charCoeff_le_prod_decreasingRearrangement then says
that the row Hodge polygon lies below every coefficient height of the principal-minor series
A.charPowerSeries = ∑ cₙ Tⁿ, and hence below its Newton polygon
(Matrix.rowHodgePolygon_le_newtonPolygon_charPowerSeries). Here cₙ is (-1) ^ n times the
unconditional sum of the size-n principal minors (Matrix.charCoeff), and the estimates need
no summability. When these families are summable, for instance when r tends to zero and the
field is complete (Matrix.summable_principalMinor), the series is the Fredholm determinant
det (1 - T A). Beyond m the coefficients vanish: for finite m the principal-minor series
is a polynomial of degree at most m, possibly less. The row
Hodge polygon depends on the chosen coordinates and majorant: it need not have the same right
endpoint as the Newton polygon, and it is not the intrinsic Hodge polygon of a lattice.
A uniform bound ‖A i j‖ ≤ C gives the line of slope -logb b C through the origin below the
Newton polygon (Matrix.isSupportingLine_newtonPolygon_charPowerSeries): every finite slope of
the principal-minor series is at least -logb b C.

The row Hodge polygon of a row majorant r in base b: the height
∑ k < n, -logb b (r* k) at n when the first n terms of the decreasing rearrangement r*
of r are positive, and ⊤ otherwise.
Instances For
Where the first n rearranged terms are positive, the row Hodge polygon is the sum of the
first n slopes -logb b (r* k).
The row Hodge polygon is infinite at n exactly when one of the first n rearranged terms
is not positive.
The row Hodge polygon is finite at n exactly when r has n positive entries. Its finite
domain is therefore [0, m], where m is the number of positive entries, or all of ℕ when
there are infinitely many.
The row Hodge polygon is convex: its slopes -logb b (r* k) are nondecreasing because the
rearrangement r* is antitone.
The unit slope of the row Hodge polygon at a positive rearranged term r* n is
-logb b (r* n).
If every entry of r is at most C, the line of slope -logb b C through the origin lies
below the row Hodge polygon.
The row Hodge polygon lies below the principal-minor coefficients. Let v be a real
additive valuation with ‖x‖ = b ^ (-v x) for x ≠ 0, where b > 1. For a bounded row majorant
‖A i j‖ ≤ r i, the height of the n-th coefficient A.charCoeff n of the principal-minor
series, no summability assumed, is at least the row
Hodge polygon at n. In particular the coefficient vanishes when r has fewer than n
positive entries.
Row Hodge lower bound for the principal-minor series. Let v be a real additive
valuation with ‖x‖ = b ^ (-v x) for x ≠ 0, where b > 1. For a bounded row majorant
‖A i j‖ ≤ r i, the row Hodge polygon of r lies below the Newton polygon of the principal-minor
series A.charPowerSeries, which is the Fredholm determinant det (1 - T A) when its
principal-minor families are summable.
Slope bound for the principal-minor series. Let v be a real additive valuation with
‖x‖ = b ^ (-v x) for x ≠ 0, where b > 1. If every entry of A has norm at most C, the
line of slope -logb b C through the origin lies below the Newton polygon of the principal-minor
series A.charPowerSeries, which is the Fredholm determinant det (1 - T A) when its
principal-minor families are summable. Since that polygon starts at the origin, every finite
slope is at least -logb b C.
