The diagonal torus in the symplectic isotropic flag subgroup #
The standard diagonal torus of Sp₂ₘ factors through the standard complete isotropic
flag subgroup over every commutative ring. The factored coordinate restriction is
surjective, so the torus inclusion is a closed immersion. Its composite with the flag
subgroup inclusion recovers the ambient symplectic torus, and its algebra-valued points
are the same diagonal symplectic matrices.
The factorization follows
TauCeti.Algebra.AlgebraicGroup.SpecialLinear.UpperTriangular.DiagonalTorus, using
CommHopfAlgCat.liftQuotient and Symplectic.diagonalTorusCoordinateMap.
