I claim that \( {r}_{0}^{\prime } \) is north of every cell of \( {r}^{\prime \prime } \) after the one given in the hypothesis of the lemma. This forces \( {r}^{\prime \prime } \) through \( \left( {{i}_{0} + 1,{j}_{0}}\right) \) as \( {r}^{\prime } \) goes through \( \left( {{i}_{0},{j}_{0}}\right) \) . If the... | Yes |

The proposition is true for \( {i}_{0} = 1 \) by definition of the algorithm. So by induction, we can assume that the statement is true for \( {J}^{\prime } \) and \( {T}^{\prime } \) and prove it for \( {J}^{\prime \prime } \) and \( {T}^{\prime \prime } \) .

By the discussion after Proposition 4.1.4, the coefficient of \( {x}^{n} \) in this product counts partitions of \( n \), where each part is of the form \( {h}_{i, j} \) for some \( \left( {i, j}\right) \in \lambda \) .

Lemma 5.1.11 If \( A \) is a poset satisfying DP1 and DP3, then \( l \leq 1 \) . | Proof. Suppose to the contrary that there are elements \( a, b \in A \) with \( l \geq 2 \) , and pick a pair of minimal rank. Then \( a, b \) both cover \( c, d \) one rank lower.

Proposition 2.9 If \( p : X \rightarrow Y \) is a principal \( G \) -bundle then there is a weak homotopy equivalence \( {X}_{G}\overset{ \simeq }{ \rightarrow }Y \) . | proof: The associated fibre bundle with fibre \( {E}_{G} \) has the form\n\n\[ \n{q}^{\prime } : {X}_{G} = \left( {{E}_{G} \times X}\right) /G \rightarrow Y.\n\]\n\nSince \( {\pi }_{ * }\left( {E}_{G}\right) = 0 \) and since this is a Serre fibration, the long exact homotopy sequence shows that \( {q}^{\prime } \) is a... | Yes |

Lemma 3.2 A necessary and sufficient condition for \( H\left( f\right) \) to be an isomorphism (of degree \( i \) ) is that for each \( \left( {m, n}\right) \in M \times N \) satisfying \( {dm} = 0 \) and \( f\left( m\right) = \) dn there exist \( \left( {{m}^{\prime },{n}^{\prime }}\right) \in M \times N \) satisfying... | proof: Suppose the condition holds. If \( {dm} = 0 \) and \( H\left( f\right) \left\lbrack m\right\rbrack = 0 \) then \( f\left( m\right) = \) \( {dn} \) ; hence \( m = d{m}^{\prime } \) and \( \left\lbrack m\right\rbrack = 0 \) .
