Comultiplication and counit of the Kostant integral form #

Let L be a Lie algebra over ℚ, and let kostantForm e h be the subring of its universal enveloping algebra generated by the divided powers of the designated root vectors e and the generalized binomial coefficients of the designated Cartan vectors h. This file proves that the rational bialgebra comultiplication and counit are integral on that form.

For the comultiplication, the integral target is represented inside the rational tensor square. The canonical map

kostantForm e h ⊗[ℤ] kostantForm e h → U(L) ⊗[ℚ] U(L)

sends a pure tensor to the pure tensor of its two underlying elements. It is injective because a subring of a rational algebra is torsion-free, hence flat over ℤ; this is the general theorem Subring.tensorSquareMap_injective. Its range is kostantTensorForm e h, so it gives the equivalence kostantTensorEquiv between the integral tensor square and that range.

The coefficient-one coproduct formulas for divided powers and generalized binomial coefficients show that the rational comultiplication of every element of the Kostant form lies in this range. Transporting the range-valued restriction back through kostantTensorEquiv gives the canonical integral coproduct kostantFormComul : U_ℤ →ₐ[ℤ] U_ℤ ⊗[ℤ] U_ℤ. Thus integrality now means an actual algebra homomorphism, rather than only the existence of an integral tensor representative.

The counit has no such issue. It sends every positive generator to zero and hence the entire form to the integer-cast subring of ℚ. The map kostantFormCounit is its canonical restriction to ℤ, and intCast_kostantFormCounit_apply identifies it with the rational counit.

The integral tensor form #

The canonical map from the tensor square of a Kostant form over ℤ to the tensor square of the ambient universal enveloping algebra over ℚ.

On pure tensors this is x ⊗ y ↦ (x : U(L)) ⊗ (y : U(L)).

    The canonical integral tensor map sends a pure tensor to the pure tensor of the underlying elements in the rational tensor square.

    The integral tensor form inside the rational tensor square: the range of the canonical map from kostantForm e h ⊗[ℤ] kostantForm e h.

    This range is the codomain of the rational restriction; kostantTensorEquiv below identifies it with the integral tensor square.
