The integral minuscule representation of type E7 #
This file realizes the Chevalley generators of type E₇ on the fifty-six-element weight
diagram TauCeti.DynkinType.e7MinusculeWeight. On the coordinate vector belonging to a weight
lambda, the Cartan generator H_i acts by the simple-coroot coordinate lambda_i; the raising
generator E_i carries lambda to its simple reflection when lambda_i = -1; and the lowering
generator F_i makes the reverse move when lambda_i = 1.
The resulting integer matrices satisfy the Chevalley--Serre relations for the Bourbaki Cartan
matrix. The universal property of the Serre presentation gives the explicit integral
fifty-six-dimensional minuscule representation. Each raising and lowering matrix squares to
zero. See TauCeti.Algebra.Lie.E7.Minuscule.AdmissibleLattice for the rational extension and
the admissibility of its coordinate lattice.
No identification with the abstract irreducible highest-weight module is asserted here. The construction is explicit: every matrix entry is read from the already audited weight and reflection tables.
