A consequence of this is that if $\beta_{-}$ is rational, then there can only be finitely many circular walls to the left of the vertical wall $\beta = \mu$. On the other hand, when $\beta_{-}$ is not rational, [ref] showed that there are infinitely many walls. This dichotomy does not only hold for real walls, realised by actual objects in $\bddderived(X)$, but also for pseudowalls. Here pseudowalls are defined as `potential' walls, induced by hypothetical Chern characters of destabilizers which satisfy certain numerical conditions which would be satisfied by any real destabilizer, regardless of whether they are realised by actual elements of $\bddderived(X)$. Since real walls are a subset of pseudowalls, the irrational $\beta_{-}$ case follows immediately from the corresponding case for real walls. However, the rational $\beta_{-}$ case involves showing that the following conditions only admit finitely many solutions (despite the fact that the same conditions admit infinitely many solutions when $\beta_{-}$ is irrational). For a destabilizing sequence $E \hookrightarrow F \twoheadrightarrow G$ in $\mathcal{B}^\beta$ we have the following conditions. There are some Bogomolov-Gieseker type inequalities: $0 \leq \Delta(E), \Delta(G)$ and $\Delta(E) + \Delta(G) \leq \Delta(F)$. We also have a condition relating to the tilt category $\firsttilt\beta$: $0 \leq \chern^\beta_1(E) \leq \chern^\beta_1(F)$. Finally, there's a condition ensuring that the radius of the circular wall is strictly positive: $\chern^\beta_2(E) > 0$. For any fixed $\chern_0(E)$, the inequality $0 \leq \chern^{\beta_{-}}_1(E) \leq \chern^{\beta_{-}}_1(F)$, allows us to bound $\chern_1(E)$. Then, the other inequalities allow us to bound $\chern_2(E)$. The final part to showing the finiteness of pseudowalls would be bounding $\chern_0(E)$. This has been hinted at in [ref] and done explicitly by Benjamin Schmidt within a computer program which computes pseudowalls. Here we discuss these bounds in more detail, along with the methods used, followed by refinements on them which give explicit formulae for tighter bounds on $\chern_0(E)$ of potential destabilizers $E$ of $F$. \section{Characteristic Curves of Stability Conditions Associated to Chern Characters} \section{Twisted Chern Characters of Pseudo Destabilizers} For a given $\beta$, we can define a twisted Chern character $\chern^\beta(E) = \chern(E) \cdot \exp(-\beta \ell)$: \begin{align*} \chern^\beta_0(E) &= \chern_0(E) \\ \chern^\beta_1(E) &= \chern_1(E) - \beta \chern_0(E) \\ \chern^\beta_2(E) &= \chern_2(E) - \beta \chern_1(E) + \frac{\beta^2}{2} \chern_0(E) \end{align*} % TODO I think this^ needs adjusting for general Surface with $\ell$ $\chern^\beta_1(E)$ is the imaginary component of the central charge $\centralcharge_{\alpha,\beta}(E)$ and any element of $\firsttilt\beta$ satisfies $\chern^\beta_1 \geq 0$. This, along with additivity gives us, for any destabilizing sequence [ref]: \begin{equation} \label{eqn-tilt-cat-cond} 0 \leq \chern^\beta_1(E) \leq \chern^\beta_1(F) \end{equation} When finding Chern characters of potential destabilizers $E$ for some fixed Chern character $\chern(F)$, this bounds $\chern_1(E)$. The Bogomolov form applied to the twisted Chern character is the same as the normal one. So $0 \leq \Delta(E)$ yields: \begin{equation} \label{eqn-bgmlv-on-E} 2\chern^\beta_0(E) \chern^\beta_2(E) \leq \chern^\beta_1(E)^2 \end{equation} The restrictions on $\chern^\beta_0(E)$ and $\chern^\beta_2(E)$ is best seen with the following graph: % TODO: hyperbola restriction graph (shaded) This is where the $\beta_{-}$ criterion comes in. If $\beta_{-} = \frac{*}{n}$ for some $*,n \in \ZZ$. Then $\chern^\beta_2(E) \in \frac{1}{\lcm(m,2n^2)}\ZZ$ where $m$ is the integer which guarantees $\chern_2(E) \in \frac{1}{m}\ZZ$ (determined by the variety). In particular, since $\chern_2(E) > 0$ we must also have $\chern^\beta_2(E) \geq \frac{1}{\lcm(m,2n^2)}$, which then in turn gives a bound for the rank of $E$: \begin{align} \chern_0(E) &= \chern^\beta_0(E) \\ &\leq \frac{\lcm(m,2n^2) \chern^\beta_1(E)^2}{2} \\ &\leq \frac{mn^2 \chern^\beta_1(F)^2}{\gcd(m,2n^2)} \end{align} \section{B.Schmidt's Method} \section{Limitations} \section{Refinement} To get tighter bounds on the rank of destabilizers $E$ of some $F$ with some fixed Chern character, we will need to consider each of the values which $\chern_1^{\beta_{-}}(E)$ can take. Doing this will allow us to eliminate possible values of $\chern_0(E)$ for which each $\chern_1^{\beta_{-}}(E)$ leads to the failure of at least one of the inequalities. As opposed to only eliminating possible values of $\chern_0(E)$ for which all corresponding $\chern_1^{\beta_{-}}(E)$ fail one of the inequalities (which is what was implicitly happening before). First, let us fix a Chern character for $F$, $\chern(F) = (R,C,D)$, and consider the possible Chern characters $\chern(E) = (r,c,d)$ of some semistabilizer $E$. \begin{sagesilent} # Requires extra package: #! sage -pip install "pseudowalls==0.0.3" --extra-index-url https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/43962374/packages/pypi/simple from pseudowalls import * v = Chern_Char(*var("R C D", domain="real")) u = Chern_Char(*var("r c d", domain="real")) Δ = lambda v: v.Q_tilt() \end{sagesilent} Recall [ref] that $\chern_1^{\beta_{-}}$ has fixed bounds in terms of $\chern(F)$, and so we can write: \begin{sagesilent} ts = stability.Tilt var("beta", domain="real") c_lower_bound = -( ts(beta=beta).rank(u) /ts().alpha ).expand() + c var("q", domain="real") c_in_terms_of_q = c_lower_bound + q \end{sagesilent} \begin{equation} \label{eqn-cintermsofm} c=\chern_1(E) = \sage{c_in_terms_of_q} \qquad 0 \leq q \leq \chern_1^{\beta_{-}}(F) \end{equation} Furthermore, $\chern_1 \in \ZZ$ so we only need to consider $q \in \frac{1}{n} \ZZ \cap [0, \chern_1^{\beta_{-}}(F)]$. For the next subsections, we consider $q$ to be fixed with one of these values, and we shall be varying $\chern_0(E) = r$ to see when certain inequalities fail. \subsection{ \texorpdfstring{ $\Delta(E) + \Delta(G) \leq \Delta(F)$ }{ Δ(E) + Δ(G) ≤ Δ(F) } } \label{subsect-d-bound-bgmlv1} This condition expressed in terms of $R,C,D,r,c,d$ looks as follows: \begin{sagesilent} # First Bogomolov-Gieseker form expression that must be non-negative: bgmlv1 = Δ(v) - Δ(u) - Δ(v-u) \end{sagesilent} \begin{equation} \sage{0 <= bgmlv1.expand() } \end{equation} \noindent Expressing $c$ in terms of $q$ as defined in (eqn \ref{eqn-cintermsofm}) we get the following: \begin{sagesilent} bgmlv1_with_q = ( bgmlv1 .expand() .subs(c == c_in_terms_of_q) ) \end{sagesilent} \begin{equation} \sage{0 <= bgmlv1_with_q} \end{equation} \noindent This can be rearranged to express a bound on $d$ as follows: \begin{sagesilent} var("r_alt",domain="real") # r_alt = r - R/2 temporary substitution bgmlv1_with_q_reparam = (bgmlv1_with_q.subs(r == r_alt + R/2)/r_alt).expand() bgmlv1_d_ineq = ( ((0 >= -bgmlv1_with_q_reparam)/4 + d) # Rearrange for d .subs(r_alt == r - R/2) # Resubstitute r back in .expand() ) bgmlv1_d_lowerbound = bgmlv1_d_ineq.rhs() # Keep hold of lower bound for d \end{sagesilent} \begin{dmath} \label{eqn-bgmlv1_d_lowerbound} \sage{bgmlv1_d_ineq} \end{dmath} \begin{sagesilent} # Separate out the terms of the lower bound for d bgmlv1_d_lowerbound_without_hyp = bgmlv1_d_lowerbound.subs(1/(R-2*r) == 0) bgmlv1_d_lowerbound_exp_term = ( bgmlv1_d_lowerbound - bgmlv1_d_lowerbound_without_hyp ).expand() bgmlv1_d_lowerbound_const_term = bgmlv1_d_lowerbound_without_hyp.subs(r==0) bgmlv1_d_lowerbound_linear_term = ( bgmlv1_d_lowerbound_without_hyp - bgmlv1_d_lowerbound_const_term ).expand() # Verify the simplified forms of the terms that will be mentioned in text var("chbv",domain="real") # symbol to represent ch_1^\beta(v) assert bgmlv1_d_lowerbound_const_term == ( ( # Keep hold of this alternative expression: bgmlv1_d_lowerbound_const_term_alt := ( chbv/2 + beta*q ) ) .subs(chbv == v.twist(beta).ch[2]) .expand() ) assert bgmlv1_d_lowerbound_exp_term == ( ( # Keep hold of this alternative expression: bgmlv1_d_lowerbound_exp_term_alt := ( - R*chbv/2 - R*beta*q + C*q - q^2 )/(R-2*r) ) .subs(chbv == v.twist(beta).ch[2]) .expand() ) \end{sagesilent} \noindent Viewing equation \ref{eqn-bgmlv1_d_lowerbound} as a lower bound for $d$ given as a function of $r$, the terms can be rewritten as follows. The constant term in $r$ is $\chern^{\beta}_2(F)/2 + \beta q$. The linear term in $r$ is $\sage{bgmlv1_d_lowerbound_linear_term}$. Finally, there's an hyperbolic term in $r$ which tends to 0 as $r \to \infty$, and can be written: $\frac{R\chern^{\beta}_2(F)/2 + R\beta q - Cq + q^2 }{2r-R}$. In the case $\beta = \beta_{-}$ (or $\beta_{+}$) we have $\chern^{\beta}_2(F) = 0$, so some of these expressions simplify. \subsection{ \texorpdfstring{ $\Delta(E) \geq 0$ }{ Δ(E) ≥ 0 } } This condition expressed in terms of $R,C,D,r,c,d$ looks as follows: \begin{sagesilent} # First Bogomolov-Gieseker form expression that must be non-negative: bgmlv2 = Δ(u) \end{sagesilent} \begin{equation} \sage{0 <= bgmlv2.expand() } \end{equation} \noindent Expressing $c$ in terms of $q$ as defined in (eqn \ref{eqn-cintermsofm}) we get the following: \begin{sagesilent} bgmlv2_with_q = ( bgmlv2 .expand() .subs(c == c_in_terms_of_q) ) \end{sagesilent} \begin{equation} \sage{0 <= bgmlv2_with_q} \end{equation} \noindent This can be rearranged to express a bound on $d$ as follows: \begin{sagesilent} bgmlv2_d_ineq = ( (0 <= bgmlv2_with_q)/2/r # rescale assuming r > 0 + d # Rearrange for d ).expand() # Keep hold of lower bound for d bgmlv2_d_upperbound = bgmlv2_d_ineq.rhs() \end{sagesilent} \begin{equation} \label{eqn-bgmlv2_d_upperbound} \sage{bgmlv2_d_ineq} \end{equation} \begin{sagesilent} # Seperate out the terms of the lower bound for d bgmlv2_d_upperbound_without_hyp = ( bgmlv2_d_upperbound .subs(1/r == 0) ) bgmlv2_d_upperbound_const_term = ( bgmlv2_d_upperbound_without_hyp .subs(r==0) ) bgmlv2_d_upperbound_linear_term = ( bgmlv2_d_upperbound_without_hyp - bgmlv2_d_upperbound_const_term ).expand() bgmlv2_d_upperbound_exp_term = ( bgmlv2_d_upperbound - bgmlv2_d_upperbound_without_hyp ).expand() \end{sagesilent} Viewing equation \ref{eqn-bgmlv2_d_upperbound} as a lower bound for $d$ in term of $r$ again, there's a constant term $\sage{bgmlv2_d_upperbound_const_term}$, a linear term $\sage{bgmlv2_d_upperbound_linear_term}$, and a hyperbolic term $\sage{bgmlv2_d_upperbound_exp_term}$. Notice that for $\beta = \beta_{-}$ (or $\beta_{+}$), that is when $\chern^{\beta}_2(F)=0$, the constant and linear terms match up with the ones for the bound found for $d$ in subsection \ref{subsect-d-bound-bgmlv1}. \subsection{ \texorpdfstring{ $\Delta(G) \geq 0$ }{ Δ(G) ≥ 0 } } \label{subsect-d-bound-bgmlv3} This condition expressed in terms of $R,C,D,r,c,d$ looks as follows: \begin{sagesilent} # Third Bogomolov-Gieseker form expression that must be non-negative: bgmlv3 = Δ(v-u) \end{sagesilent} \begin{equation} \sage{0 <= bgmlv3.expand() } \end{equation} \noindent Expressing $c$ in terms of $q$ as defined in (eqn \ref{eqn-cintermsofm}) we get the following: \begin{sagesilent} bgmlv3_with_q = ( bgmlv3 .expand() .subs(c == c_in_terms_of_q) ) \end{sagesilent} \begin{equation} \sage{0 <= bgmlv3_with_q} \end{equation} \noindent This can be rearranged to express a bound on $d$ as follows: \begin{sagesilent} var("r_alt",domain="real") # r_alt = r - R temporary substitution bgmlv3_with_q_reparam = ( bgmlv3_with_q .subs(r == r_alt + R) /r_alt # This operation assumes r_alt > 0 ).expand() bgmlv3_d_ineq = ( ((0 <= bgmlv3_with_q_reparam)/2 + d) # Rearrange for d .subs(r_alt == r - R) # Resubstitute r back in .expand() ) # Check that this equation represents a bound for d assert bgmlv3_d_ineq.lhs() == d bgmlv3_d_upperbound = bgmlv3_d_ineq.rhs() # Keep hold of lower bound for d \end{sagesilent} \begin{dmath} \label{eqn-bgmlv3_d_upperbound} \sage{bgmlv3_d_ineq} \end{dmath} \begin{sagesilent} # Seperate out the terms of the lower bound for d bgmlv3_d_upperbound_without_hyp = ( bgmlv3_d_upperbound .subs(1/(R-r) == 0) ) bgmlv3_d_upperbound_const_term = ( bgmlv3_d_upperbound_without_hyp .subs(r==0) ) bgmlv3_d_upperbound_linear_term = ( bgmlv3_d_upperbound_without_hyp - bgmlv3_d_upperbound_const_term ).expand() bgmlv3_d_upperbound_exp_term = ( bgmlv3_d_upperbound - bgmlv3_d_upperbound_without_hyp ).expand() # Verify the simplified forms of the terms that will be mentioned in text var("chbv",domain="real") # symbol to represent ch_1^\beta(v) assert bgmlv3_d_upperbound_const_term == ( ( # keep hold of this alternative expression: bgmlv3_d_upperbound_const_term_alt := ( chbv + beta*q ) ) .subs(chbv == v.twist(beta).ch[2]) # subs real val of ch_1^\beta(v) .expand() ) assert bgmlv3_d_upperbound_exp_term == ( ( # Keep hold of this alternative expression: bgmlv3_d_upperbound_exp_term_alt := ( R*chbv + (C - q)^2/2 + R*beta*q - D*R )/(r-R) ) .subs(chbv == v.twist(beta).ch[2]) # subs real val of ch_1^\beta(v) .expand() ) \end{sagesilent} \noindent Viewing equation \ref{eqn-bgmlv3_d_upperbound} as an upper bound for $d$ give: as a function of $r$, the terms can be rewritten as follows. The constant term in $r$ is $\chern^{\beta}_2(F) + \beta q$. The linear term in $r$ is $\sage{bgmlv3_d_upperbound_linear_term}$. Finally, there's an hyperbolic term in $r$ which tends to 0 as $r \to \infty$, and can be written: $\frac{R\chern^{\beta}_2(F) + (C-q)^2/2 + R\beta q - DR}{r-R}$. In the case $\beta = \beta_{-}$ (or $\beta_{+}$) we have $\chern^{\beta}_2(F) = 0$, so some of these expressions simplify, and in particular, the constant and linear terms match those of the other bounds in the previous subsections. \subsection{Bounds on \texorpdfstring{$r$}{r}} Now, the inequalities from the last three subsections will be used to find, for each given $q=\chern^{\beta}_1(E)$, how large $r$ needs to be in order to leave no possible solutions for $d$. At that point, there are no Chern characters $(r,c,d)$ that satisfy all inequalities to give a pseudowall. \subsubsection{All circular pseudowalls left of vertical wall} Suppose we take $\beta = \beta_{-}$ (so that $\chern^{\beta}_2(F)=0$) in the previous subsections, to find all circular walls to the left of the vertical wall (TODO as discussed in ref). % redefine \beta (especially coming from rendered SageMath expressions) % to be \beta_{-} for the rest of this subsubsection \bgroup \let\originalbeta\beta \renewcommand\beta{{\originalbeta_{-}}} \begin{align} d &\geq& \sage{bgmlv1_d_lowerbound_linear_term} &+ \sage{bgmlv1_d_lowerbound_const_term_alt.subs(chbv == 0)} +& \sage{bgmlv1_d_lowerbound_exp_term_alt.subs(chbv == 0)}, &\qquad\text{when\:} r > \frac{R}{2} \\ d &\leq& \sage{bgmlv2_d_upperbound_linear_term} &+ \sage{bgmlv2_d_upperbound_const_term} +& \sage{bgmlv2_d_upperbound_exp_term}, &\qquad\text{when\:} r > 0 \\ d &\leq& \sage{bgmlv3_d_upperbound_linear_term} &+ \sage{bgmlv3_d_upperbound_const_term_alt.subs(chbv == 0)} +& \sage{bgmlv3_d_upperbound_exp_term_alt.subs(chbv == 0)}, &\qquad\text{when\:} r > R \end{align} Furthermore, we get an extra bound for $d$ resulting from the condition that the radius of the circular wall must be positive. As discussed in (TODO ref), this is equivalent to $\chern^{\beta}_2(E) > 0$, which yields: \begin{sagesilent} positive_radius_condition = ( ( (0 > - u.twist(beta).ch[2]) + d # rearrange for d ) .subs(solve(q == u.twist(beta).ch[1], c)[0]) # express c in term of q .expand() ) \end{sagesilent} \begin{equation*} \sage{positive_radius_condition} \end{equation*} \begin{sagesilent} def beta_min(chern): ts = stability.Tilt() return min( map( lambda soln: soln.rhs(), solve( (ts.degree(chern)) .expand() .subs(ts.alpha == 0), beta ) ) ) v_example = Chern_Char(3,2,-2) q_example = 7/3 def plot_d_bound(v_example, q_example, ymax=5, ymin=-2, xmax=20): # Equations to plot imminently representing the bounds on d: eq1 = ( bgmlv1_d_lowerbound .subs(R == v_example.ch[0]) .subs(C == v_example.ch[1]) .subs(D == v_example.ch[2]) .subs(beta = beta_min(v_example)) .subs(q == q_example) ) eq2 = ( bgmlv2_d_upperbound .subs(R == v_example.ch[0]) .subs(C == v_example.ch[1]) .subs(D == v_example.ch[2]) .subs(beta = beta_min(v_example)) .subs(q == q_example) ) eq3 = ( bgmlv3_d_upperbound .subs(R == v_example.ch[0]) .subs(C == v_example.ch[1]) .subs(D == v_example.ch[2]) .subs(beta = beta_min(v_example)) .subs(q == q_example) ) eq4 = ( positive_radius_condition.rhs() .subs(q == q_example) .subs(beta = beta_min(v_example)) ) example_bounds_on_d_plot = ( plot( eq3, (r,v_example.ch[0],xmax), color='green', linestyle = "dashed", legend_label=r"upper bound: $\Delta(G) \geq 0$", title=r"$q :=\mathrm{ch}_1^{\beta_{-}}(E)=" + latex(q_example) + r"$" ) + plot( eq2, (r,0,xmax), color='blue', linestyle = "dashed", legend_label=r"upper bound: $\Delta(E) \geq 0$" ) + plot( eq4, (r,0,xmax), color='orange', linestyle = "dotted", legend_label=r"lower bound: $\mathrm{ch}_2^{\beta_{-}}(E)>0$" ) + plot( eq1, (r,v_example.ch[0]/2,xmax), color='red', linestyle = "dotted", legend_label=r"lower bound: $\Delta(E) + \Delta(G) \leq \Delta(F)$" ) ) example_bounds_on_d_plot.ymin(ymin) example_bounds_on_d_plot.ymax(ymax) example_bounds_on_d_plot.axes_labels(['$r$', '$d$']) return example_bounds_on_d_plot \end{sagesilent} \sageplot{plot_d_bound(v_example, 0)} \sageplot{plot_d_bound(v_example, 2)} \sageplot{plot_d_bound(v_example, 4)} \egroup \section{Conclusion} \newpage \section{Appendix - SageMath code} \usemintedstyle{tango} \begin{footnotesize} \inputminted[ obeytabs=true, tabsize=2, breaklines=true, breakbefore=./ ]{python}{filtered_sage.txt} \end{footnotesize} \end{document}
