Q2. What is the equivariance condition for f FPG1?
Since f ∈ FPG1 leaves ∆φ invariant, the authors can define a vector field f on P , the induced vector field, by restricting f to ∆φ and projecting the result onto P by α−1.
Q3. What is the key property that the authors wish to ensure that a quotient map ?
The key property that the authors wish to ensure is that a quotient map φ : G1 → G2 induces a natural mapping φ̂ : FPG1 → FPG2 , where P is obtained by identifying the relevant factors of P .Quotients preserve admissibility.
Q4. What is the definition of a quotient map?
Suppose that G is a coupled cell network and .2 is a balanced equivalence relation on C. Let (G , φ) be the natural quotient by .2 so that .2φ = .2. Let (G′, φ′) be any quotient network with .2φ′ = .2.
Q5. What is the main idea of the paper?
The formalism of symmetry groupoids proposed in this paper can be set up for many analogous systems that possess a network structure.
Q6. What is the quotient map of G′?
That is, if G′ is a coupled cell network with a quotient map φ′ with .2φ′=.2, then there is a quotient map ξ : G → G′ such that φ′(c) = ξ(φ(c)) for all c ∈ C.
Q7. What is the symmetry groupoid of the polydiagonal?
In fact, they form the isotropy subgroupoid of any generic element of the polydiagonal ∆ (that is, an element x ∈ ∆ such that xi = xj ⇔ i .2 j).
Q8. What is the solution to the differential equation f?
Choose x(0) ∈ ∆ so that xc(0) = xd(0) = 0, and choose f ∈ FPG (Q), where d ∈ Q. Let x(t) be the solution to the differential equation f.
Q9. What is the meaning of Lemma 7.3?
Lemma 7.3 implies that if (D) holds for some choice of c1, c2 satisfying the required conditions, then it holds for any choice of c1, c2.
Q10. What is the general vector field associated to the three-cell bidirectional ring illustrated in Figure?
It is known that when k ≥ 2, such vector fields can support discrete rotating waves and solutions where two cells are out of phase, while the third cell has twice the frequency of the other two [9, 7].
Q11. What is the central role of the symmetry groupoid?
In all cases, the central role of the symmetry groupoid as a formal algebraic structure that captures the constraints imposed by the network topology is paramount.
Q12. What is the definition of a balanced quotient map?
The existence of β ∈ B(c, c′) in Part (b) implies that c ∼I1 c′ and hence c ∼C1 c′. Using (8.2), identity (8.4) is equivalent to i .2φ β(i) for all i ∈ I(c), which is the definition of “balanced” in Definition 6.4.
