The presentation of the link-homotopy classes over a closed surface (Theorem 3.9)
DisprovedHGL.presentation_universalOver the closed orientable surface, the class group admits the presentation with the generators a_(1,r) and sigma_i and the relations LH and R1 through R6 of the Gonzalez-Meneses presentation: the link-homotopy relation LH is the commutator of the t-word of each sigma generator with each of its conjugates by elements of the subgroup generated by the a elements and the t-words, and the remaining relations are the braid relations R1 and R2, the boundary word relation R3, and the mixed relations R4 through R6. The universal property: any group with a family of n-1 elements and a family of 2g elements satisfying these relations receives a unique homomorphism from the class group mapping the standard generators to the families. This is Theorem 3.9, the main presentation of the paper, of which the Goldsmith presentation of the disk is the special case.

/-! The goal (Theorem 3.9): for a closed orientable surface M of genus g,
the group of link-homotopy classes of generalized string links over M
admits the presentation with the generators a_(1,1), ..., a_(1,2g) and
sigma_1, ..., sigma_(n-1) and the relations LH - the commutator of the
t-word with its conjugates - together with the relations R1 through R6 of
the Gonzalez-Meneses presentation. The universal property: any group with
families satisfying these relations receives a unique homomorphism from the
class group mapping the standard generators to the families. -/

What the Lean code literally says, in plain math · glm-5-latest-short
Restate: in a link-homotopy world over a closed surface of genus g, for any group with a family of n-1 elements and a family of 2g elements satisfying the presentation predicate - the link-homotopy relation LH together with the relations R1 through R6 - there exists exactly one homomorphism from the class group to that group mapping the sigma generators to the first family and the a generators to the second. Hypotheses: the world is given; the target families satisfy the defining relations; no further hypotheses appear.
