The full-weight type-B spin carrier #
This file specializes the type-Bₙ₊₁ spin representation to the canonical split quadratic
space (M* × M) × ℚ, where M = Fin (n + 1) → ℚ. Its exterior coordinate lattice has a
basis indexed by Finset (Fin (n + 1)); the simple-root Kostant form preserves this lattice,
and the resulting spin weights span the full simply connected character lattice.
These data define an explicit affine group scheme over ℤ: the smallest closed subgroup of
GL_(2^(n+1)) containing the represented numbered root subgroups and the spin weight torus.
The same data provide its matrix-valued points and the conjugation equation expressing the
Cartan action on each numbered root subgroup.
No smoothness, reductivity, Borel subgroup, or comparison with an all-root Kostant form is
asserted. In particular, constructing and comparing the remaining nonsimple type-B root
subgroups is separate from this carrier construction.
