I think where you're getting wrapped around the axle is that you are imagining co-owners as being able to exercise the full rights of ownership independent of each other, and this is not the case. In this situation, there is usually a contract that exists that will define the rights of each co-owner, how decisions about the property are made, how disputes will be resolved, etc.

Is there a minimum right? Granted co-owners can't exercise full rights of ownership. Is there a minimum right that cannot be partitioned between legal persons?

No, there is no minimum. It's completely dependent upon the contract that defines the terms.

So hypothetically, one could own a share of a share of a company depending on the contract?
