Row Hodge lower polygons of row-compact operators #
Let K be a normed field with an ultrametric norm, v a real additive valuation on K and
b > 1 with ‖x‖ = b ^ (-v x) for x ≠ 0. For a row-compact endomorphism u of C₀(I, K)
with row norms rᵢ(u), the row Hodge polygon of the row norms, with slopes
-logb b (r* k) for the decreasing rearrangement r* of the row norms, lies below the Newton
polygon of the principal-minor series u.matrixCoeff.charPowerSeries
(ContinuousLinearMap.IsRowCompact.rowHodgePolygon_rowNorm_le_newtonPolygon_charPowerSeries).
When K is complete, row-compactness makes its principal-minor sums converge, and the series is
then the Fredholm series det (1 - T u). The finite domain of the polygon is [0, m] for the
number m of nonzero rows, possibly infinite, so every coefficient of degree greater than m
vanishes.
Over a nontrivially normed field every entry of the matrix of u is bounded by the operator
norm. Hence, for any endomorphism u, the line of slope -logb b ‖u‖ through the origin lies
below the Newton polygon of the principal-minor series u.matrixCoeff.charPowerSeries
(ContinuousLinearMap.isSupportingLine_newtonPolygon_charPowerSeries). Its coefficients are
unconditional sums of principal minors, which converge when u is row-compact and K is
complete; the series is then the Fredholm series det (1 - T u). In any case every finite slope
of its Newton polygon is at least -logb b ‖u‖.

Row Hodge lower bound for a row-compact operator. Let v be a real additive valuation
on an ultrametric normed field with ‖x‖ = b ^ (-v x) for x ≠ 0, where b > 1. For a
row-compact endomorphism u of C₀(I, K), the row Hodge polygon of its row norms lies below
the Newton polygon of its principal-minor series u.matrixCoeff.charPowerSeries. When K is
complete, these principal-minor sums converge and the series is the Fredholm series
det (1 - T u).
Slope bound by the operator norm. Let v be a real additive valuation on an ultrametric
nontrivially normed field with ‖x‖ = b ^ (-v x) for x ≠ 0, where b > 1. For an
endomorphism u of C₀(I, K), the line of slope -logb b ‖u‖ through the origin lies below
the Newton polygon of the principal-minor series u.matrixCoeff.charPowerSeries, whose
coefficients are unconditional sums of principal minors of the matrix of u. When u is
row-compact and K is complete these sums converge and the series is the Fredholm series
det (1 - T u). Since the Newton polygon starts at the origin, every finite slope is at least
-logb b ‖u‖.
