Separated presentation adjunction for causal and triangular Frobenius presentations
Separated presentation adjunction for causal and triangular Frobenius presentations
Let be the category of finite acyclic directed graphs equipped with a chosen topological order, with order-preserving graph homomorphisms or refinements as morphisms. Let be the category of Frobenius Markov objects with tangent intervention fields and a filtration
satisfying , where is the span of intervention directions strictly later than . Let be the geometric-realization functor, and let be the separated subcategory defined by the -separated visible-stratum hypothesis, strengthened so that the triangular filtration and nonzero residuals are invariant under Frobenius-compatible changes of presentation. Separated presentation adjunction. On , graphical extraction is functorial and the realization functor admits a right adjoint
Moreover, the unit is an isomorphism, while the counit is the triangularization map comparing each separated tangent Frobenius object with the object generated by its extracted acyclic presentation. The conjecture formalizes when tangent Frobenius data determine an ordered graphical presentation: separation should make extraction functorial, and realization followed by extraction should recover the original presentation. The source does not provide a resolution, so the status remains open; the precise strengthened separation condition and the behavior of the counit require verification.
