Endpoint terms of an inverse braid-complex product #
The cochain tensor product of the braid complex Bᵢ with its inverse Bᵢ' has one term in
cohomological degree -1 and one in degree 1. The balanced tensor unitors identify them with
the vertex bimodule Pᵢ ⊗ₖ eᵢ Z and its internal shift by -2. These identifications are the
outer terms of TauCeti.zigzagBraidComplexTensorInverseHomotopyEquiv, which cancels the middle
terms to show that Bᵢ ⊗ Bᵢ' is homotopy equivalent to the regular graded bimodule Z in
degree zero.
The calculation is valid for the public componentwise zigzag algebra, including isolated vertices.
