TauCeti.Algebra.AlgebraicGroup.GeneralLinear.Root.Subgroup

The root subgroups of the general linear group #

For a pair of distinct indices i ≠ j, the elementary matrices xᵢⱼ(c) = 1 + c Eᵢⱼ form a one-parameter subgroup of GLₙ. This file promotes that family to a homomorphism of affine group schemes

xᵢⱼ : 𝔾ₐ → GLₙ

over an arbitrary commutative base ring R. On the A-points of 𝔾ₐ, which are the additive group of A, it is the map c ↦ xᵢⱼ(c) into the A-points of GLₙ, which are GL n A. The natural family of point maps determines a coordinate Hopf-algebra morphism by full faithfulness of the functor of points, and relative spectrum gives TauCeti.GeneralLinear.rootSubgroup as a morphism of affine group schemes.

Reading the index pair (i, j) as the root εᵢ - εⱼ of the diagonal torus of GLₙ, this is the root subgroup of that root. The relations it satisfies — additivity in the parameter, the Chevalley commutator relations, and the rescaling of the parameter under conjugation by the torus — all hold at the level of the matrices, and are proved in TauCeti/LinearAlgebra/Matrix/GeneralLinearGroup/Transvection.lean; the points equivalences TauCeti.GeneralLinear.pointsMulEquiv and TauCeti.AdditiveGroup.gaPointsMulEquiv transport them to any of the three views of the group. Nothing here needs R to be a field, and nothing needs the base to be reduced or the rank to be positive: the construction is the one over ℤ that a Chevalley–Demazure group of type A base changes from.

The root subgroup homomorphism on A-points: it sends the A-point c of 𝔾ₐ to the elementary matrix xᵢⱼ(c), an A-point of GLₙ.

    On points, the root subgroup homomorphism is the elementary matrix of the parameter. This is not a simp lemma, since TauCeti.GeneralLinear.pointsMulEquiv_apply rewrites its left-hand side.

    The root subgroup homomorphism is natural in the value algebra: the elementary matrix of the image parameter is the image of the elementary matrix.

    The natural transformation of group-valued functors whose component at an A-point sends c to the elementary matrix xᵢⱼ(c).

      The component of the natural points map at a value algebra is the root subgroup homomorphism on points.

      The coordinate morphism of the root subgroup, recovered from its natural action on points. Its direction is O(GLₙ) → O(𝔾ₐ), opposite to the represented group-scheme morphism.

      Equations
      Instances For

        Precomposition by the root-subgroup coordinate morphism is the previously constructed natural map on convolution points.

        @[simp]

        On every same-universe value algebra, the map induced by the root-subgroup coordinate morphism is the elementary root subgroup homomorphism already constructed on points.

        @[simp]

        The root-subgroup coordinate map sends a generic matrix entry to the corresponding entry of 1 + X Eᵢⱼ.

        The root-subgroup coordinate morphism is surjective over every commutative base ring.

        The root subgroup of GLₙ attached to the root εᵢ - εⱼ: the affine group-scheme morphism 𝔾ₐ → GLₙ whose value on points is c ↦ xᵢⱼ(c).

        Equations

        Instances For

          The root subgroup is relative spectrum applied contravariantly to its coordinate Hopf-algebra morphism, transported across the named presentations of 𝔾ₐ and GLₙ.

          @[simp]

          The root subgroup on scheme-valued points: composing an A-point of 𝔾ₐ with the root subgroup morphism gives the elementary matrix xᵢⱼ(c) of its parameter c, as an A-point of GLₙ.
