Descent of Suzuki fixed points to the finite field #

The Steinberg fixed-point construction of the Suzuki groups lives in a general linear group over an algebraic closure, whereas the standard generators live over GaloisField 2 (2 * m + 1). This file proves that the embedding chosen for the generators has exactly the Frobenius-fixed field as its image. Consequently every Steinberg fixed point has finite-field coordinates for that same embedding.

The subgroup finiteFixedSubgroup is the exact finite-field preimage of the Steinberg fixed points. Scalar extension identifies it with the fixed-point subgroup in the ambient general linear group. Equality with Suzuki.suzukiGroup is the finite-field generation theorem that identifies the two constructions; it is not asserted here.

Scalar extension after the Suzuki coordinate change has exactly the invertible matrices whose entries are fixed by the field Frobenius.

Every Suzuki Steinberg fixed point in the ambient general linear group has coordinates over the finite field used by the standard generators.

    Over the generator field, a matrix is a Steinberg fixed point exactly when its coordinate change preserves the alternating form and has special isogeny equal to its entrywise 2^(m+1)-st power.

    The standard generated Suzuki group lies in the exact finite-field preimage of the Steinberg fixed points. Equality is the finite-field generation theorem identifying the two constructions.
