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.
