The bigrading of unblocked grid homology #

The homogeneous cycles and their classes give an internal direct sum decomposition of GH⁻ by (O-Maslov, Alexander) degree. The differential has degree (-1, 0), and each variable has degree (-2, -1). Homogeneous projection preserves both cycles and boundaries, so a class has a homogeneous representative precisely when it belongs to the corresponding piece.

The cycle pieces are defined over commutative semirings, and their internal direct sum decomposition is available over commutative rings, using the chain decomposition isInternal_bigradedChainMinusPiece, whose internality criterion requires a ring. The homology grading and its consequences require a commutative ring of characteristic two ([CommRing R] [CharP R 2]).

These pieces are modules over the ground ring, not over the polynomial coefficient ring. As for the chain bigrading, an odd number of link components ensures integral Alexander degrees. The decomposition allows degree-preserving homology comparisons to be restricted to each bidegree without choosing cycle representatives.

        The pieces of the bundled homology grading are the homogeneous homology pieces.

        A class has bidegree g exactly when it has a cycle representative of that bidegree.

        The class of a homogeneous cycle lies in the homology piece of the same bidegree.

        The bigraded homology pieces span GH⁻.

        The bigraded homology pieces are independent: a homogeneous boundary can be detected in its own bidegree.

        GH⁻ is the internal direct sum of its (O-Maslov, Alexander) pieces.

        Multiplication by a monomial of total degree d.degree lowers homology bidegree by (2 * d.degree, d.degree).

        Multiplication by a grid variable lowers homology bidegree by (2, 1).

        An equivalence intertwining the unblocked differentials identifies each homology bidegree if it identifies each chain bidegree. The converse membership implication includes the inverse homology equivalence, so the image is the entire homogeneous piece.
