Axiom 2: Isotony #

This file formalises the blueprint declaration def:isotony (Axiom 2 of the "sharpened" Haag-Kastler axioms, section 10.3 of the AQFT-in-Lean blueprint):

If 𝐁₁ ⊆ 𝐁₂ (basis sets of the Alexandrov topology) then the inclusion induces a unital *-monomorphism 𝔘(𝐁₁) ↪ 𝔘(𝐁₂) between the corresponding local algebras.

Main definitions #

Modelling notes #

Axiom 2 (Isotony). A local net U satisfies isotony if every inclusion B₁ ⊆ B₂ between Alexandrov-basis sets of Minkowski spacetime is implemented by a unital *-monomorphism 𝔘(B₁) ↪ 𝔘(B₂).

Blueprint reference: def:isotony.

The family is chosen data, not an existence statement: the identity and composition laws below are equations between the maps themselves, so there is nothing to state unless the maps are fixed. An axiom of the form "for each inclusion there exists some monomorphism" cannot express functoriality at all.

map_self and map_comp say exactly that B ↦ 𝔘(B) is a functor on the inclusion order of basis sets. They are required rather than derived because they constrain the net's chosen embeddings, not the spacetime. Their payoff is that the local algebras form a genuine directed system, which is what gives the quasilocal algebra (def:quasilocal-algebra) its algebra structure.

Instances For

    Isotony is reflexive. Every Alexandrov-basis set embeds into itself via the identity unital *-monomorphism, independently of any isotony hypothesis.

    Isotony is transitive. Given inclusions B₁ ⊆ B₂ ⊆ B₃ of Alexandrov-basis sets, the isotony embeddings compose to a unital *-monomorphism 𝔘(B₁) ↪ 𝔘(B₃).
