The orbit–cone correspondence on the analytic realization of a fan #
Every cone σ of a regular fan has a distinguished point in the analytic realization: the image of
the distinguished point of the top face of σ in the affine chart of σ. Its torus orbit is the
image of the stratum of the top face of σ in that chart. This file proves that these orbits are
all the torus orbits of the realization, that distinct cones give distinct orbits, and that the
closure order on orbits is the reverse of the face order on cones.
The key point is that the stratum of a point does not depend on the chart used to see it. A point
of the chart of σ that lies in the stratum of a face F of σ comes from the chart of σ ⊓ τ
whenever it also lies in the chart of τ; restriction along a face inclusion preserves strata, so
the strata seen in the charts of σ and τ are both the stratum of the same cone. Consequently a
point of the chart of σ lies in the orbit of a cone τ exactly when its affine stratum is
indexed by τ, and the orbit of τ meets the chart of σ precisely when τ is a face of σ,
in the affine stratum of τ. Since every chart is an open subspace of the realization, the closure
order is computed in a single chart, where it is the affine closure order.

Strata do not depend on the chart #
A cone τ of a fan, viewed as a face of a cone σ containing it. This is the affine stratum
in the chart of σ that represents the global orbit of τ.
Instances For
The cone underlying orbitFace is the smaller cone.
A cone viewed as a face of itself is the top face.
The stratum of a point of the analytic realization does not depend on the chart: if points of
the charts of σ and τ have the same image, and lie in the strata of a face F of σ and a
face G of τ, then F and G are the same cone.
Distinguished points and orbits of cones #
The distinguished point of a cone σ of a regular fan: the distinguished point of the top face
of σ in the affine chart of σ, viewed in the analytic realization.
Instances For
The distinguished point of a cone is the image of the distinguished point of its top face.
The distinguished point of a face τ of σ, seen in the chart of σ, is the distinguished
point of τ as a face of σ.
The torus orbit of a cone σ of a regular fan: the image in the analytic realization of the
stratum of the top face of σ in the affine chart of σ. By analyticConeOrbit_eq_orbit, it is
the torus orbit of the distinguished point of σ.
Instances For
The orbit of a cone is the image of the stratum of its top face.
The orbit of a cone σ is the torus orbit of the distinguished point of σ.
The torus preserves the orbit of every cone.
The distinguished point of a cone lies in its orbit.
A point of the chart of σ in the stratum of a face F lies in the orbit of a cone τ exactly
when F is the cone τ.
The orbit of a face τ of σ meets the chart of σ in the stratum of τ.
The orbit of a cone τ does not meet the chart of a cone σ that does not contain τ.
A point in the orbit of σ belongs to the affine chart of τ exactly when σ ≤ τ.
The affine orbit of σ in any containing chart parametrizes the entire global orbit.
The parametrization is the affine chart inclusion, independent of coordinate choices.
Instances For
The affine parametrization of a global orbit is given by the affine chart inclusion.
Applying the affine chart inclusion to the inverse orbit parametrization recovers the point.
The orbit–cone correspondence #
The orbits of the cones partition the analytic realization: every point lies in the orbit of a unique cone.
Every point of the analytic realization lies in the orbit of some cone.
The orbits of two cones meet only when the cones are equal.
The orbit–cone correspondence for a regular fan: the cones of the fan correspond bijectively to
the torus orbits of its analytic realization, a cone corresponding to the orbit of its
distinguished point. By analyticConeOrbit_subset_closure_iff, the correspondence reverses the
closure order.
Instances For
The orbit–cone correspondence sends a cone to the orbit of its distinguished point.
The torus orbit corresponding to a cone is its orbit analyticConeOrbit.
The cone corresponding to the torus orbit of a point is the cone whose orbit contains it.
The closure order #
A point of the orbit of σ lies in the closure of the orbit of τ exactly when τ is a face
of σ.
The closure of the orbit of a cone τ is the union of the orbits of the cones containing
τ.
Every global cone orbit is locally closed in the analytic realization.
Under the orbit–cone correspondence, inclusion of cones is the reverse of the closure order on orbits.
Stabilizers #
The stabilizer of the distinguished point of a cone σ is the subtorus of torus points that
are trivial on the characters vanishing on σ.
