Orthogonal splitting of integral lattices #
A sublattice with perfect restricted pairing is complementary to its orthogonal complement.
A vector of unit norm spans such a summand. These specialize the corresponding results for
symmetric bilinear forms over commutative rings.
The lattice theorems expose these results on IntegralLattice without requiring callers to
provide the symmetry of integralForm separately. The orthogonal complement of a vector
with nonzero pairing functional has integral rank one less than the lattice.
The unimodular splitting theorem is from O. T. O'Meara, Introduction to Quadratic Forms, §82.
A sublattice with perfect restricted integral pairing is complementary to its orthogonal complement.
A vector of unit norm spans an orthogonal direct summand of an integral lattice.
The orthogonal complement of a vector with nonzero pairing functional has integral rank one less than the lattice, without any assumption on the radical of the ambient form.
