Diagonal representations of a diagonalizable group #

A weight function wt : Fin n → G on a basis of a free module M makes M a comodule over the group algebra R[G], that is, a representation of the diagonalizable group D(G) which is diagonal in that basis. This file records the resulting morphism of affine group schemes

D(G) ⟶ GLₙ

and a sufficient condition for it to be a closed immersion: the weights generate the character group G. Indeed, their group-algebra generators then lie in the range of the coordinate morphism O(GLₙ) ⟶ R[G], making that morphism surjective and the representation faithful.

For G = ℤ^κ this is the split torus 𝔾ₘ^κ presented as a closed subgroup of GLₙ by the weights of a representation, which is how the split maximal torus of a Chevalley group is written down.

The coordinate morphism of a diagonal representation #

noncomputable def TauCeti.DiagonalizableGroup.diagonalCoordinateMap {R : Type u} {G : Type v} {M : Type w} {n : ℕ} [CommRing R] [CommGroup G] [AddCommMonoid M] [Module R M] (b : Module.Basis (Fin n) R M) (wt : Fin n → G) :

The coordinate Hopf-algebra morphism O(GLₙ) ⟶ R[G] of the representation of D(G) which is diagonal in the basis b with weights wt.

Equations
Instances For

    The coordinate morphism of a diagonal representation sends the generic matrix to the diagonal matrix of the characters.

    The antipode generators of O(GLₙ) are sent to the inverse characters.

    On points, a diagonal representation is the diagonal matrix of the values of its weights. A point of D(G) is a character χ of G, and it acts on the x-th basis vector by χ (wt x).

    Faithfulness #

    Every generator of the group algebra whose character is generated by the weights lies in the range of the coordinate morphism.

    A diagonal representation whose weights generate the character group is faithful: its coordinate morphism O(GLₙ) ⟶ R[G] is surjective.

    The morphism of affine group schemes D(G) ⟶ GLₙ attached to the representation of D(G) which is diagonal in the basis b with weights wt.

    Equations
    Instances For

      The diagonal group-scheme morphism is relative spectrum applied contravariantly to its coordinate morphism, transported across the named presentation of D(G).

      A diagonal representation whose weights generate the character group presents D(G) as a closed subgroup of GLₙ.
