All root subgroups of the type A full-weight carrier #
The standard type-A_r carrier is generated by the root subgroups attached to the numbered
simple raising and lowering operators. This file proves that it contains every elementary root
subgroup
x_ij : G_a -> SlStd.groupScheme r, for i != j : Fin (r + 1).
The pair (i, j) represents the root epsilon_i - epsilon_j. Thus the construction covers all
r * (r + 1) roots, not only the 2r simple positive and negative roots used to generate the
carrier. The key input is TauCeti.SlStd.transvectionUnit_mem_points: every elementary
transvection belongs to the carrier over every commutative ring. Applying this to the universal
point of G_a proves that the ambient general-linear coordinate morphism kills the carrier's
defining Hopf ideal, and hence factors through its quotient coordinate algebra.
The resulting morphisms retain their ambient matrix description and therefore satisfy the type-A Chevalley commutator equations on arbitrary commutative-ring-valued points.

Instances For
A root-subgroup point indexed by a pair is its elementary transvection matrix.
On a numbered simple root, the pair-indexed point map is the existing pinned point map. The
matrix indices are (rootTarget, rootSource), since the corresponding matrix unit sends the
source basis vector to the target basis vector.
Root-subgroup values at non-chaining roots commute inside the carrier.
The type-A Chevalley commutator equation inside the carrier:
[x_ij(c), x_jl(d)] = x_il(cd) for three distinct indices.
The reverse-orientation type-A Chevalley commutator equation inside the carrier:
[x_ij(c), x_ki(d)] = x_kj(-(dc)) for three distinct indices.
The coordinate morphism of the root subgroup x_ij, factored through the quotient
coordinate algebra of the full-weight type-A_r carrier.
Equations
Instances For
Every pair-indexed root coordinate morphism is surjective.
Precomposing a pair-indexed root coordinate morphism with the carrier quotient map recovers the ambient general-linear root coordinate morphism.
For a numbered simple root, the pair-indexed coordinate map is the coordinate map of the existing pinned root subgroup.
The root subgroup x_ij : G_a -> SlStd.groupScheme r attached to the type-A root
epsilon_i - epsilon_j.
Equations
- One or more equations did not get rendered due to their size.
Instances For
The pair-indexed root subgroup is relative spectrum applied contravariantly to its factored coordinate morphism.
On a numbered simple root, the pair-indexed group-scheme morphism is the existing pinned root-subgroup morphism.
Every pair-indexed root subgroup is a closed copy of the additive group.
Including x_ij in GL_(r+1) recovers the ambient root subgroup attached to
epsilon_i - epsilon_j.
On scheme-valued points, a pair-indexed carrier root subgroup becomes the elementary
transvection with the same parameter after inclusion in GL_(r+1).
