The rank-two spin carrier is the rank-two symplectic carrier #
The diagrams B₂ and C₂ are the same, and the spin representation of Spin₅ is the standard
representation of Sp₄. This file makes the corresponding statement about the two explicit
carriers Tau Ceti builds for that diagram: the full-weight type-B spin carrier
TauCeti.TypeBSpinCarrier.groupScheme 1, built on the exterior algebra of a rank-two isotropic
space, and the full-weight type-C standard carrier TauCeti.SpStd.groupScheme 1, built on the
four-dimensional symplectic module. A signed permutation of the two four-element lattice bases
conjugates the numbered simple root subgroups of the first onto those of the second and the weight
torus of the first onto the weight torus of the second, so conjugation by it identifies the two
carriers' points over every commutative ring.
Both carriers use the Bourbaki numbering of their own diagram, which disagree: node 0 of B₂ is
the long simple root ε₀ - ε₁ and node 1 the short one ε₁, while node 0 of C₂ is the short
root and node 1 the long one. The identification therefore exchanges the two nodes, both on the
root subgroups and on the coordinates of the weight torus. In the exterior basis indexed by subsets
of {0, 1} and the symplectic basis e₀, e₁, f₀, f₁, the change of basis is
{0, 1} ↦ e₀, {0} ↦ e₁, {1} ↦ f₁, ∅ ↦ -f₀,
which carries each spin weight to the corresponding symplectic weight with its two coordinates
exchanged. The spin lattice basis is enumerated by Fin (dimension 1), which is Fin 4 only after
computing dimension 1, so the identification first reindexes along
TauCeti.TypeBSpinCarrier.dimension_one and then conjugates.
Nothing here asserts that either carrier is the pinned simply connected group scheme of its diagram.

The generators on the rank-two exterior basis #
The integral matrices of the numbered simple root generators on the rank-two exterior
basis, with rows and columns indexed by subsets of {0, 1}. The long raising generator moves
{1} to {0}, the short raising generator moves ∅ to {1} and {0} to {0, 1}, and the
lowering generators reverse these moves.

The change of basis to the symplectic carrier #

the short nodes correspond likewise.

The identification with the symplectic carrier #
The change of basis from the spin lattice basis to the symplectic lattice basis, as an
invertible integral matrix on the symplectic coordinates: the spin lattice basis is reindexed along
TauCeti.TypeBSpinCarrier.dimension_one and then carried to the symplectic basis by
TauCeti.TypeBSpinCarrier.symplecticBasisChange. It is a signed permutation matrix, inverted by
its transpose.

Instances For
The rank-two spin carrier is the rank-two symplectic carrier. Over every commutative ring
A, reindexing the spin lattice basis to the symplectic coordinates and conjugating by
TauCeti.TypeBSpinCarrier.symplecticChangeOfBasis identifies the points of
TauCeti.TypeBSpinCarrier.groupScheme 1 with the points of TauCeti.SpStd.groupScheme 1.

Instances For
The identification of the rank-two carriers reindexes and conjugates by
TauCeti.TypeBSpinCarrier.symplecticChangeOfBasis.
The identification carries each numbered spin root subgroup to the symplectic root subgroup at the exchanged node, with the same parameter.
The identification carries the spin weight torus to the symplectic weight torus, with the two torus coordinates exchanged.
The identification commutes with the p ^ k-power Frobenius maps of the two carriers,
since the change of basis is integral.
