Generation of the doubled E₆ weight torus by root subgroups #
The doubled type-E₆ carrier, the Kostant toral closure of V(ϖ₁) ⊕ V(ϖ₆) inside GL₅₄, is
defined from its twelve numbered positive and negative simple-root subgroups together with its
rank-six split weight torus. Over every commutative ring, this file proves that the represented
weight torus is already contained in the elementary group generated by those root subgroups, so
the torus is redundant among the generators of the pointwise group.
The two inputs are the same as for the 27-dimensional carrier. The positive and negative
generators at every node act on the rational doubled module as an sl₂ triple, by
TauCeti.E6DoubledMinuscule.isSl2Triple_rep_serreRootGenerator. The root characters are those of
the type-E₆ Serre algebra and do not depend on the representation, so the Bézout certificate
TauCeti.E6.rootGeneratorWeight_sum_mul_cartanBezout shows that each of them is a
primitive character of the weight torus. The generic coroot-generation theorem then puts every
coordinate cocharacter, and hence every point of the weight torus, in the elementary group.
Testing that containment over the coordinate ring of the universal weight-torus point upgrades it
to the scheme-theoretic statement: the toral-closure and root-generated defining ideals over ℤ
agree, so the torus is redundant among the scheme-theoretic generators as well, and the canonical
comparison of the two carriers is an isomorphism. The equality of ideals survives transport along
ℤ → A. It does not identify the elementary subgroup of points with all points of the carrier over
a non-flat base.

Instances For
Every point of a named root subgroup belongs to the elementary subgroup.
A subgroup contains the elementary subgroup exactly when it contains every named root-subgroup point.
The doubled type-E₆ weight torus lies in the elementary group. Over every commutative
ring, the represented weight torus on the base-changed admissible lattice is contained in the
elementary group generated by the twelve positive and negative numbered simple root subgroups.
The range of the named doubled type-E₆ weight-torus map lies in the elementary group.

Scheme-theoretic generation #
The full-weight doubled type-E₆ minuscule carrier is generated scheme-theoretically by its
twelve numbered root subgroups. Adjoining the represented weight torus does not change the
integral defining Hopf ideal.
The full-weight doubled type-E₆ minuscule carrier is the group scheme generated by its
twelve numbered positive and negative simple root subgroups.
The canonical inclusion of the root-generated doubled type-E₆ minuscule carrier into its
toral closure is an isomorphism.
After base change to any commutative ring, the transported doubled type-E₆ minuscule carrier
ideal is the transport of the root-generated integral ideal. This does not identify it with the
common kernel of the root-subgroup maps formed anew over that ring.
Two morphisms out of the doubled type-E₆ minuscule carrier agree as soon as they agree on
its twelve numbered root subgroups. This drops the weight-torus hypothesis of
TauCeti.E6DoubledMinuscule.groupScheme_hom_ext, which root generation of the carrier makes
redundant.
