Every cross-cut primitive block carries a cross pair #
Paper: R-324 — §4.2 Step 3, the nested blocks straddle the cut
Paper §4.2 Step 3(b) proves that every surviving fully paired subinterval
of κ₀ contains {p, p+1}, i.e. straddles the cut between the two copies.
The blocks of the nested cross schedule therefore all satisfy
R324CrossCutCarrier.
This module records the elementary consequence that the schedule needs: a block which straddles the cut, is fully paired, and is relatively primitive must actually pair some site below the cut to a site above it. Without that, the part below the cut would be a proper fully paired relative subinterval, which relative primitivity forbids.
A cross-cut, fully paired, relatively primitive block pairs across the cut.
The part of B below the cut is a relative interval — it is relIcc B a b
for a the least element of B and b the greatest element below the cut
— so if it were closed under the pairing it would be a proper fully paired
relative subinterval of B, contradicting IsRelPrimitiveOn.
A site below the cut whose partner is above it is the left copy of a single of the left half: within-copy pairs stay below the cut.
Every block of the nested cross schedule is the marked block of some residual covariance slot.
Combining the two previous lemmas with the uniqueness in
existsUnique_residualBlock_mem_of_marked: a cross-cut, fully paired,
relatively primitive block contains a cross pair, hence the left copy of a
single of the left half, and that single's marked block is the block
itself.
