The descent of the chain form along a pushforward #
The induction step of the statement CP1 of the embedded desingularization
(Hironaka.Resolution.Algebraic.Wlo05.EmbeddedChainRelative) on the scheme: Włodarczyk's proof
descends to the hypersurface of maximal contact and runs the algorithm there; in Kollár's order the
run on H is pushed forward to X ([Kol07, Definition 30, 30.3]; the proof of [Kol07, Lemma 102]).
The chain form of the level data on H at a point of stage i of the run L on H gives the
chain form of the data on X at the image point of the corresponding stage of L.pushforward ι:
the stage embedding g = L.pushforwardStageHom ι i is a closed immersion with kernel the strict
transform H_i (ker_pushforwardStageHom), H_i is a smooth hypersurface with H_i ≤ J_i
(maximal contact persists along an order-≥ 1 run,
IsOrderGeSeq.strictTransformSeq_le_and_isSmoothDivisor) and H_i ≤ c̃_i; the three pullbacks
along g of the data on X_i are the data of L on H_i — the boundary through the restriction
identity (totalTransformSeq_comap_pullbackStageHom_of_forall_lt), the marked transform through
IsOrderGeSeq.markedTransformSeq_comap_pullbackStageHom, the strict transform through
strictTransformSeq_pushforward_comap
(Hironaka.Resolution.Algebraic.Wlo05.EmbeddedChainDescentTools), the first two carried across
pullback_pushforward by the heterogeneous-equality transports of
Hironaka.Resolution.Algebraic.Kol07.GoingUp — and the lift of
Hironaka.Resolution.Algebraic.Wlo05.EmbeddedChainLift in its closed-immersion form lifts the level
form. The hypersurfaces of maximal contact are those of [Kol07, Theorem 80]. Used in
Hironaka.Resolution.Algebraic.Wlo05.EmbeddedCP1Pushforward.
The descent of the chain form along a pushforward: for H ⊆ X a smooth hypersurface with
H ⊆ V(J), H ∪ E snc, c ⊇ H (a component inside H), and a run L on H whose pushforward
to X is a smooth run of order ≥ 1 for (J, 1, E), the chain form of the level data on H at a
point of stage i gives the chain form of the data on X at the image point of the corresponding
stage ([Kol07, Definition 30, 30.3]; [Kol07, Theorem 80 (2)] for the hypersurface of maximal
contact).
