Rectangles into the X-marking state of a torus link grid #
In the standard torus link grid torusLink p q the X-markings occupy the diagonal shifted up by
q + 1 rows, so the X-marking permutation is a power of the cyclic shift finRotate
(torusLink_X_toPerm). This file specialises the cyclic-shift results of Unblocked.lean to the
torus grids: the unblocked differential counts every rectangle into the X-marking state G.X,
the grid state whose points are the lower-left corners of the X-marked squares
(unblockedRectangles_torusLink_X), and each grid state has none or two of them
(even_card_unblockedRectangles_torusLink_X). This parity is the hypothesis under which the class
of G.X in unblocked grid homology is not torsion.
Main results #
TauCeti.GridDiagram.unblockedRectangles_torusLink_X: every rectangle into theX-marking state of a torus link grid is empty and avoids theX-markings.TauCeti.GridDiagram.even_card_unblockedRectangles_torusLink_X: each grid state has an even number of counted rectangles into theX-marking state.

X-marking state is the canonical generator of Chapter 6 there.
