The induced Hermitian form on the (1,0)- and (0,1)-parts #

Let g be a real bilinear form on V preserved by an almost complex structure J, and let h (x, y) = g_ℂ (conj x, y) be its sesquilinear complexification (LinearMap.BilinForm.sesqComplexification), the positive Hermitian form on ℂ ⊗[ℝ] V when g is a Euclidean metric. This file computes h on the decomposition 1 ⊗ v = v^(1,0) + v^(0,1) of a real vector into its parts in the i- and -i-eigenspaces W and W' of the complexified complex structure:

On the complex vector space (V, J) the Hermitian form g (v, w) - i g (v, J w), conjugate-linear in its first argument, is therefore twice the pullback of h|_W along v ↦ v^(1,0). For g the metric ω (·, J ·) of a J-invariant symplectic form ω, this form is TauCeti.SymplecticForm.complexAssociatedForm.

In the geometric convention for spinors, Q (v) = -g (v, v), the isotropic subspace W carries the exterior model ⋀ W of the spinor module of (V, g, J), and the restriction of h to W is the Hermitian metric on W that induces a Hermitian metric on that model.

Orthogonality of the (1,0)- and (0,1)-parts #

The i- and -i-eigenspaces of the complexified complex structure are orthogonal for the induced Hermitian form.

@[simp]

The (1,0)-part of one real vector is orthogonal to the (0,1)-part of another for the induced Hermitian form.

The (0,1)-part of one real vector is orthogonal to the (1,0)-part of another for the induced Hermitian form.

The induced Hermitian form on the parts #

The induced Hermitian form on (1,0)-parts: h (v^(1,0), w^(1,0)) = (g (v, w) - i g (v, J w)) / 2.

The induced Hermitian form on (0,1)-parts: h (v^(0,1), w^(0,1)) = (g (v, w) + i g (v, J w)) / 2, the conjugate of its value on the (1,0)-parts.

The squared norm of the (1,0)-part of a real vector is half the square of the vector: h (v^(1,0), v^(1,0)) = g (v, v) / 2, that is |v^(1,0)|² = |v|² / 2 for a Euclidean metric g.

The squared norm of the (0,1)-part of a real vector is half the square of the vector: h (v^(0,1), v^(0,1)) = g (v, v) / 2.

The Hermitian form of a J-invariant symplectic form is twice the pullback of the induced Hermitian form along v ↦ v^(1,0): with g = ω (·, J ·) and h its sesquilinear complexification, ω (v, J w) + i ω (v, w) = 2 h (v^(1,0), w^(1,0)).
