Using the splitting (73) of VD2V_{D_{2}} we can decompose the ℐ′\mathcal{I}^{\prime}-cube VD1V_{D_{1}} as a direct sum of two ℐ′\mathcal{I}^{\prime}-cubes as follows:

VD1=V′⊕V′′V_{D_{1}}=V^{\prime}\oplus V^{\prime\prime} (78)

where

V′(∗0)\displaystyle V^{\prime}(\ast 0) =\displaystyle= ȷa​(VD)\displaystyle\jmath_{a}(V_{D}) (79)
V′(∗1)\displaystyle V^{\prime}(\ast 1) =\displaystyle= 0\displaystyle 0 (80)
V′′(∗0)\displaystyle V^{\prime\prime}(\ast 0) =\displaystyle= ιa​(VD)\displaystyle\iota_{a}(V_{D}) (81)
V′′(∗1)\displaystyle V^{\prime\prime}(\ast 1) =\displaystyle= VD1(∗1)\displaystyle V_{D_{1}}(\ast 1) (82)

Some explanation: in the formula (79) ȷa​(VD)\jmath_{a}(V_{D}) is a subcube of VD2V_{D_{2}} and, due to (75), ȷa​(VD)\jmath_{a}(V_{D}) sits inside VD1V_{D_{1}} as a subcube of codimension 1. Equation (80) means that V′(∗1)(ℒ)=0V^{\prime}(\ast 1)(\mathcal{L})=0 for all ℒ⊂ℐ′.\mathcal{L}\subset\mathcal{I}^{\prime}. Thus, V′​(ℒ)=ȷa​(VD​(ℒ))⊂VD1​(ℒ)V^{\prime}(\mathcal{L})=\jmath_{a}(V_{D}(\mathcal{L}))\subset V_{D_{1}}(\mathcal{L}) for ℒ⊂ℐ′,\mathcal{L}\subset\mathcal{I}^{\prime}, if ℒ\mathcal{L} does not contain a.a. If ℒ\mathcal{L} contains a,a, V′​(ℒ)=0.V^{\prime}(\mathcal{L})=0.
