The upper-triangular Borel as a dynamic parabolic of GL₂ #

For the cocharacter

lambda(t) = diag(t, 1)

of GL₂, conjugation sends a matrix !![a, b; c, d] to !![a, tb; t⁻¹c, d]. Consequently the conjugate extends from the punctured affine line across the origin exactly when c = 0: the dynamic parabolic P(lambda) is the upper-triangular Borel. For such a matrix the limit at the origin is its diagonal part.

The file specializes TauCeti.GeneralLinear.weightCocharacter at the weights (1, 0). Thus the result holds over every commutative base ring and every commutative value algebra, including rings with zero divisors.

This supplies the explicit GL₂ check for the dynamic-parabolic route in Layer 7, "Structure theory", of the ReductiveGroups roadmap.

The standard dynamic cocharacter is the weight cocharacter for weights (1, 0).

@[simp]

Membership in the dynamic parabolic for t ↦ diag(t, 1) is exactly upper triangularity.

As subgroups of convolution points, the dynamic parabolic for t ↦ diag(t, 1) is the preimage of the upper-triangular Borel under the general-linear point equivalence.
