Dual-primitive functionals on the Connes–Kreimer bialgebra #
A linear functional on the Connes–Kreimer bialgebra is a dual primitive exactly when it vanishes
on every forest that is not a single tree. The delta functionals δ_T = lcoeff R {T} of the trees
are dual primitives, and the commutator of two of them counts single cuts. The symmetry-weighted
pairing sends the primitive elements of the Grossman–Larson bialgebra to dual primitives, and it
maps the pre-Lie algebra of rooted trees to the Lie algebra of dual primitives. Chapoton and
Livernet observe this identification with the Lie algebra that Connes and Kreimer find dual to
their Hopf algebra.

Implementation notes #
The product δ_{T₁} ⋆ δ_{T₂} is not a combination of the δ_T: on the forest {T₁, T₂} it takes
the value 1, or 2 when the trees are equal (ConnesKreimer.convMul_lcoeff_singleton_apply_mul).
Only the commutator is a dual primitive.
The grafting product puts the host first and the pruning coproduct puts the crown first, so the
pairing reverses products. GrossmanLarson.pairingLie is therefore defined on the opposite
pre-Lie algebra (ChapotonLivernet R α)ᵐᵒᵖ, whose product grafts the first factor onto the
second, as Connes and Kreimer's does.

The delta functional of a single tree is a dual primitive.
Among the delta functionals of forests, the dual primitives are those of the single trees.
The convolution product of two single-tree deltas takes a tree T to the number of single
cuts of T with crown T₁ and trunk T₂.
The convolution product of two single-tree deltas takes the forest of the two trees to 1, or
to 2 when the trees are equal, so the product of two dual primitives need not be one.
The commutator of two single-tree deltas vanishes on every forest that is not a single tree.
The commutator of two single-tree deltas takes a tree T to the number of single cuts of T
with crown T₁ and trunk T₂ minus the number with crown T₂ and trunk T₁.
The pairing with the pre-Lie algebra of trees #
Pairing with a primitive element of the Grossman–Larson bialgebra is a dual primitive of the Connes–Kreimer bialgebra.
Among the basis forests of the Grossman–Larson bialgebra, the primitive ones are the single trees.
Hoffman's relation. The single cuts of T with crown T₁ and trunk T₂, counted with
the symmetries of T₁ and T₂, are as many as the vertices of T₂ at which grafting T₁ gives
T, counted with the symmetries of T.
The pairing as a map of Lie algebras from the left pre-Lie algebra of rooted trees, in which
the first factor is grafted onto the second, to the dual primitives of the Connes–Kreimer
bialgebra. It sends a tree T to |Aut T| • δ_T.
