The ambient coordinate automorphism of a numbered Kostant symmetry #
A symmetry of numbered Kostant data is a self-map σ of the index set together with a rational
automorphism θ of the representation which preserves the integral lattice M and carries the
action of eᵢ to the action of e_{σ i}. Conjugating by the scalar extension of θ is then an
automorphism of the general linear group of A ⊗[ℤ] M, natural in the value ring A.
This file turns that natural automorphism into an automorphism of the coordinate Hopf algebra of
GLₙ itself, and records the two compositional identities a closed subgroup scheme of GLₙ needs
in order to inherit it:
γ ≫ xᵢ = x_{σ i}, γ ≫ (weight torus of wt) = weight torus of (wt ∘ π⁻¹).
The first says that conjugation permutes the represented Kostant root subgroups without touching
their additive parameters. The second says that when θ acts monomially on the chosen lattice
basis, with coordinate permutation π and integral scaling coefficients, conjugation carries the
represented weight torus of a weight family to the weight torus of the relabelled family. The
scaling coefficients cancel from diagonal conjugation. Preserving a subgroup scheme cut out by
both families additionally requires weight equivariance identifying that family with the original
one, through a permutation of the torus index and
GeneralLinear.weightTorusCoordinateMap_reindex.
Neither identity is available from the construction of the coordinate automorphism, which goes through the functor of points: full faithfulness of the functor of points on commutative Hopf algebras recovers the coordinate morphism from the natural conjugation, and each identity is then proved by evaluating both sides at the generic point of the relevant codomain.
Nothing here assumes that σ comes from a Dynkin-diagram symmetry, that θ is unique, or that the
weights are the weights of an admissible lattice: all of that is supplied by the caller.

The symmetry on a normalized group of matrix-valued points #
The automorphism of a group of matrix-valued points induced by a numbered symmetry, given
by conjugation by the symmetry's matrix on any subgroup P of GLₙ that matrix normalizes. A
carrier cut out inside GLₙ supplies P and the normalization hypothesis; everything the
conjugation satisfies is then read off the matrix.

Instances For
On matrices, the numbered symmetry acts on points by conjugation by its matrix.
On matrices, the inverse of the numbered symmetry on points is conjugation by the inverse of its matrix.
The numbered symmetry on points is natural in the value ring. The naturality is stated
against any homomorphism F of point groups which is the entrywise map on matrices, which is what
a carrier's own base-change map on points is; in particular the symmetry commutes with every
Frobenius map.
The numbered symmetry on points inherits every order relation its matrix satisfies.

The ambient coordinate automorphism permutes the Kostant root-subgroup coordinate maps.
The entries of the numbered-symmetry matrix are the coordinates of the images of the basis vectors.
The matrix of a symmetry acting monomially on the chosen lattice basis. Its jth column
has the integral scaling coefficient at row basisPerm j and is zero elsewhere. This is the
hypothesis under which conjugation normalizes the diagonal torus of GLₙ; allowing the coefficient
is necessary for graph symmetries whose pinned lift is a signed coordinate permutation.
Conjugating a diagonal matrix by a monomial basis symmetry relabels its entries by the
inverse permutation. The integral scaling coefficients cancel from the conjugation, so in
particular every signed permutation normalizes the diagonal torus of GLₙ.
A monomial-basis numbered symmetry carries the represented weight torus of a weight family
to the weight torus of the relabelled family. The scalar coefficients do not affect diagonal
conjugation. Stability of a closed subgroup scheme cut out by the root subgroups and a weight torus
additionally requires identifying this relabelled family with the original one, via weight
equivariance and
