Extending edge data by zero along a copy #
Let f be a copy of a graph H in a graph G, that is an injective graph homomorphism, not
necessarily induced. A family β x y of values on the ordered pairs of vertices of H extends by
zero to G: the extended family takes the value β x y on (f x, f y) for every edge x ∼ y of
H, and zero on every other pair, including the pairs of G-adjacent vertices of the copy which
are not edges of H.
When the values lie in a semiring, the local sums ∑_{w ∼ v} β w v * β v w over the neighbours of
a vertex are preserved: at a vertex f x of the copy the extended sum is the sum of H at x,
and away from the copy it is zero. These are the local relations of the signless preprojective
algebra, so a representation of the signless preprojective algebra of H by such a family extends
by zero to one of G.

Main results #
SimpleGraph.Copy.extendByZero_apply_apply: along the copy, the extension is the original family on edges ofHand zero elsewhere.SimpleGraph.Copy.sum_extendByZero_mul_extendByZero: the local sums∑_{w ∼ v} β w v * β v wvanish for the extension when they vanish for the original family.
The extension by zero of a family β on the vertex pairs of H along a copy f of H in
G: the pair (f x, f y) of an edge x ∼ y of H carries β x y, and every other pair carries
zero.
Instances For
Along the copy, the extension is the original family on edges of H, and zero elsewhere.
Along an edge of H, the extension is the original family.
Along a pair of vertices of the copy which is not an edge of H, the extension vanishes.
Away from the image of the copy, the extension vanishes.
Away from the image of the copy, the extension vanishes.
Local relations extend by zero along a copy: if the sums ∑_{y ∼ x} β y x * β x y over
the neighbours in H vanish at every vertex of H, then so do the corresponding sums of the
extension by zero at every vertex of G.
