Sharp order-preserving integer models for short additive equalities

For an ordered real alphabet, an integer model is required to preserve its order and all vanishing balanced relations of mass at most q; signs of nonzero comparisons need not be preserved. The universal minimum diameter is determined exactly as H_4(q)=q(q+1) and H_5(q)=q^2(q+1) for every integer q >= 2, and H_6(2)=24. The proofs include a compatible-chamber flag bound, sharp two-dimensional-kernel families, a face-lifting recurrence and exact cluster families. The general higher-letter radii are not completely determined. The mandatory technical supplement and exact finite-classification evidence accompany the article. Preprint. Not externally peer reviewed. The main paper, mandatory technical supplement and evidence archive must be read together.

Abstract

For an ordered real alphabet, an integer model is required to preserve its order and all vanishing balanced relations of mass at most q; signs of nonzero comparisons need not be preserved. The universal minimum diameter is determined exactly as H_4(q)=q(q+1) and H_5(q)=q^2(q+1) for every integer q >= 2, and H_6(2)=24. The proofs include a compatible-chamber flag bound, sharp two-dimensional-kernel families, a face-lifting recurrence and exact cluster families. The general higher-letter radii are not completely determined. The mandatory technical supplement and exact finite-classification evidence accompany the article. Preprint. Not externally peer reviewed. The main paper, mandatory technical supplement and evidence archive must be read together.
