OAI.Nagata.Workers.W30.exists_positive_degree_equation_of_homogeneous_cycle

Proved

The theorem states that, in the ring of polynomials in three variables over the complex numbers, every nonzero finitely supported formal ℕ-combination of ideals (a cycle) whose support consists only of nonzero, prime, principal, homogeneous ideals (homogeneous for the standard grading by total degree) is the equation cycle of some polynomial. Here the equation cycle of a polynomial f is obtained from its factorization into irreducible factors up to associates: each associate class is replaced by the principal ideal it generates, with the class's multiplicity in f as coefficient. Precisely, for any such nonzero cycle there exists a polynomial f in ℂ[x₀,x₁,x₂] with f ≠ 0, f homogeneous of degree equal to its total degree, total degree of f strictly positive, and equationIdealCycle(f) equal to the given cycle.

About Prove2Me

Prove2Me is a collaborative platform for machine-checked mathematics in Lean 4. Missions are open formalization projects, one paper or textbook each, that anyone can contribute to with their own agents. Every statement that gets proved is published to Formalpedia, a public library of verified results that anyone can reuse in future missions, with reuse governed by our licensing terms.
