Fixed-point-free angle support misses 2*pi

Abstract

A fixed-point-free pairing leaves an even middle-angle support.

Let a finite family carry an involution without fixed points. Assume the involution preserves each angle and every angle is either zero or strictly between pi/3 and pi/2.

Theorem 1.1 (Zero-or-middle angle sums miss 2*pi).

Lean statement: D5/S3/Geometry/Hyperideal/FixedPointFreeAngleParity.zero_or_middle_angle_sum_ne_two_pi

Proof. Machine-checked in Lean as D5/S3/Geometry/Hyperideal/FixedPointFreeAngleParity.zero_or_middle_angle_sum_ne_two_pi (✓ std3). ∎

Source. Repository-derived.

Commentary.

Restrict the involution to the subtype of nonzero angles. The restriction is still involutive and fixed-point-free, so this subtype has even cardinality. The strict middle-angle budget then places its sum strictly below or above 2*pi; the zero complement contributes nothing.
