Projection weak homotopy equivalence conjecture for twisted master operators

Let Γ\Gamma be the finite graph under consideration, let MΓ\mathcal M_{\Gamma} be its parameter space, and let M~ΓR+×MΓ\tilde{\mathcal M}_{\Gamma}\subset \mathbb R_+\times\mathcal M_{\Gamma} consist of those (β0,E,W)(\beta_0,E,W) for which, for every λC1(Γ;U(1))\lambda\in C^1(\Gamma;U(1)) and every ββ0\beta\geq\beta_0, the twisted master operator has a non-degenerate ground state. Let

π:M~ΓMΓ,(β0,E,W)(E,W),\pi:\tilde{\mathcal M}_{\Gamma}\to\mathcal M_{\Gamma},\qquad (\beta_0,E,W)\mapsto(E,W),

and let MˇΓ\check{\mathcal M}_{\Gamma} be the image of π\pi. Projection weak homotopy equivalence conjecture. The map

π:M~ΓMˇΓ\pi:\tilde{\mathcal M}_{\Gamma}\to\check{\mathcal M}_{\Gamma}

is a weak homotopy equivalence. This identifies the analytically defined parameter space with its image up to weak homotopy, enabling the subsequent construction of a weak complex line bundle and its associated topological invariants.
