Closed root subgroups of the type-B spin carrier #
For every Bourbaki node of type Bₙ₊₁, the raising and lowering root-subgroup maps into
TauCeti.TypeBSpinCarrier.groupScheme n are closed copies of the additive group scheme.
The spin representation makes the required unit matrix coefficient explicit. At a nonterminal node, the raising and lowering operators move an exterior singleton between two adjacent coordinates. At the terminal short node, they create or annihilate the final coordinate, with the distinguished remainder vector acting by exterior parity. The generic Kostant root-subgroup criterion then makes the coordinate-ring homomorphism surjective.
