Classical coordinates on the pinned type Cₙ lattices #

The pinned type Cₙ datum TauCeti.DynkinType.typeCSimplyConnectedRootDatum writes its character lattice in the fundamental-weight basis and its cocharacter lattice in the simple-coroot basis. Both lattices are also the classical lattice ℤ ^ n with standard basis e₀, …, e_{n-1}, because the simple coroots eᵢ - eᵢ₊₁ and e_{n-1} of Cₙ form a basis of it. This file makes that identification explicit, in the form a concrete group with diagonal torus 𝔾ₘⁿ consumes.

The change of coordinates on characters sends λ to its pairings (⟨λ, e_a⟩)_a with the classical basis, and the one on cocharacters sends μ to (⟨e_a, μ⟩)_a. They send the families TauCeti.DynkinType.TypeC.weight and TauCeti.DynkinType.TypeC.coweight to the standard basis vectors and carry the pinned dot-product pairing to the classical one. Both are integral with integral inverse, since the matrices of the two families are inverse transposes of one another by TauCeti.DynkinType.TypeC.weight_dotProduct_coweight.

      The a-th classical coordinate of a character is its pairing with e_a.

      @[simp]

      The a-th classical coordinate of a cocharacter is the pairing of e_a with it.

      @[simp]

      The character e_a has the a-th standard basis vector as classical coordinates.

      @[simp]

      The cocharacter e_a has the a-th standard basis vector as classical coordinates.

      @[simp]

      The a-th standard basis vector of classical coordinates is the character e_a.

      @[simp]

      The a-th standard basis vector of classical coordinates is the cocharacter e_a.

      @[simp]

      The classical coordinates preserve the pairing. The pinned dot product of a character and a cocharacter is the dot product of their classical coordinates.
