Closed generators of the short-root Fโ carrier over ๐ฝโ #
The eight numbered simple-root maps and the weight-torus map into the prime-field short-root carrier are closed immersions. Their parametrizations therefore identify closed copies of the additive group and of the rank-four split torus inside the carrier, over nonreduced value algebras as well as fields. These are the closed-subgroup inputs needed to recognize the carrier's torus and root datum in a pinned-group comparison.
The coordinate maps of the integral root subgroups are surjective by their explicit matrix
coordinates, while the twenty-six short-root weights span the full character lattice. Base change
to ๐ฝโ preserves both surjections without a flatness hypothesis, and factoring the resulting
maps through the subgroup generated over ๐ฝโ preserves them again.
The integral root-coordinate calculation is in TauCeti.Algebra.Lie.F4.ShortRoot.Carrier; the
weight-span theorem is in
TauCeti.LinearAlgebra.RootSystem.SimplyConnectedRootDatum.F4.ShortRootWeight.Basic. The
organization follows the prime-field short-root type-Gโ carrier.

Every numbered positive or negative simple-root map is a closed immersion into the
short-root carrier over ๐ฝโ.
The rank-four weight-torus map is a closed immersion into the short-root carrier over ๐ฝโ.
This asserts that it is a split torus subgroup, without asserting maximality.
