Compositions #
A composition of a natural number n is a decomposition n = i₀ + ... + i_{k-1} of n into a sum
of positive integers. Combinatorially, it corresponds to a decomposition of {0, ..., n-1} into
non-empty blocks of consecutive integers, where the iⱼ are the lengths of the blocks.
This notion is closely related to that of a partition of n, but in a composition of n the
order of the iⱼs matters.
We implement two different structures covering these two viewpoints on compositions. The first
one, made of a list of positive integers summing to n, is the main one and is called
Composition n. The second one is useful for combinatorial arguments (for instance to show that
the number of compositions of n is 2^(n-1)). It is given by a subset of {0, ..., n}
containing 0 and n, where the elements of the subset (other than n) correspond to the leftmost
points of each block. The main API is built on Composition n, and we provide an equivalence
between the two types.
Main functions #
c : Composition nis a structure, made of a list of integers which are all positive and add up ton.composition_cardstates that the cardinality ofComposition nis exactly2^(n-1), which is proved by constructing an equiv withCompositionAsSet n(see below), which is itself in bijection with the subsets ofFin (n-1)(this holds even forn = 0, where-is nat subtraction).
Let c : Composition n be a composition of n. Then
c.blocksis the list of blocks inc.c.lengthis the number of blocks in the composition.c.blocks_fun : Fin c.length → ℕis the realization ofc.blocksas a function onFin c.length. This is the main object when using compositions to understand the composition of analytic functions.c.sizeUpTo : ℕ → ℕis the sum of the size of the blocks up toi.;c.embedding i : Fin (c.blocks_fun i) → Fin nis the increasing embedding of thei-th block inFin n;c.index j, forj : Fin n, is the index of the block containingj.Composition.ones nis the composition ofnmade of ones, i.e.,[1, ..., 1].Composition.single n (hn : 0 < n)is the composition ofnmade of a single block of sizen.
Compositions can also be used to split lists. Let l be a list of length n and c a composition
of n.
l.splitWrtComposition cis a list of lists, made of the slices oflcorresponding to the blocks ofc.join_splitWrtCompositionstates that splitting a list and then joining it gives back the original list.joinSplitWrtComposition_joinstates that joining a list of lists, and then splitting it back according to the right composition, gives back the original list of lists.
We turn to the second viewpoint on compositions, that we realize as a finset of Fin (n+1).
c : CompositionAsSet n is a structure made of a finset of Fin (n+1) called c.boundaries
and proofs that it contains 0 and n. (Taking a finset of Fin n containing 0 would not
make sense in the edge case n = 0, while the previous description works in all cases).
The elements of this set (other than n) correspond to leftmost points of blocks.
Thus, there is an equiv between Composition n and CompositionAsSet n. We
only construct basic API on CompositionAsSet (notably c.length and c.blocks) to be able
to construct this equiv, called compositionEquiv n. Since there is a straightforward equiv
between CompositionAsSet n and finsets of {1, ..., n-1} (obtained by removing 0 and n
from a CompositionAsSet and called compositionAsSetEquiv n), we deduce that
CompositionAsSet n and Composition n are both fintypes of cardinality 2^(n - 1)
(see compositionAsSet_card and composition_card).
Implementation details #
The main motivation for this structure and its API is in the construction of the composition of formal multilinear series, and the proof that the composition of analytic functions is analytic.
The representation of a composition as a list is very handy as lists are very flexible and already have a well-developed API.

Proof of positivity for blocks
Proof that blocks sums to n
Combinatorial viewpoint on a composition of n, by seeing it as non-empty blocks of
consecutive integers in {0, ..., n-1}. We register every block by its left end-point, yielding
a finset containing 0. As this does not make sense for n = 0, we add n to this finset, and
get a finset of {0, ..., n} containing 0 and n. This is the data in the structure
CompositionAsSet n.

of respective lengths c.blocks_fun 0, ..., c.blocks_fun (c.length-1). This is inverse to the
join operation.

Given a list of length n and a composition [i₁, ..., iₖ] of n, split l into a list of
k lists corresponding to the blocks of the composition, of respective lengths i₁, ..., iₖ.
This makes sense mostly when n = l.length, but this is not necessary for the definition.

When one splits a list along a composition c, the number of sublists thus created is
c.length.
When one splits a list along a composition c, the lengths of the sublists thus created are
given by the block sizes in c.
The i-th sublist in the splitting of a list l along a composition c, is the slice of l
between the indices c.sizeUpTo i and c.sizeUpTo (i+1), i.e., the indices in the i-th
block of the composition.
If one splits a list along a composition, and then joins the sublists, one gets back the original list.
If one joins a list of lists and then splits the join along the right composition, one gets back the original list of lists.
