Rational points on the diagonal of the finite adelic orthogonal groups #
Let Q be a quadratic form on a finite-dimensional rational vector space V, and let U be
compatible compact-open reference data (TauCeti.QuadraticMap.OrthogonalCompactOpens). Extending
scalars to โ_p sends a rational point of O(V), SO(V) or Spin(V) to a local point at every
prime, and the integrality conditions recorded in U put it in the reference subgroup at almost
every prime. These local images therefore assemble into diagonal homomorphisms
O(V)(โ) โ O(V)(๐ธ_f), SO(V)(โ) โ SO(V)(๐ธ_f), Spin(V)(โ) โ Spin(V)(๐ธ_f),
built with TauCeti.rationalDiagonal. For SO the integrality comes from that of O, through
OrthogonalCompactOpens.eventually_specialOrthogonal, rather than from a further hypothesis.
Each diagonal is injective, since already the extension of scalars to a single โ_p is. The
diagonals commute with the componentwise natural maps Spin(V)(๐ธ_f) โ SO(V)(๐ธ_f) โ O(V)(๐ธ_f)
(the Spin-to-SO map and the SO-to-O inclusion). In particular the two routes from Spin(V)(โ)
to SO(V)(๐ธ_f), through Spin(V)(๐ธ_f) or through SO(V)(โ), agree, so the image of the
rational Spin points in adelic SO is unambiguous. Finally the finite adelic spinor norm of a
rational proper isometry is, at every prime, the image of its rational spinor norm in the local
square classes; so rational proper isometries with trivial spinor norm lie in the adelic spinor
kernel.

The three diagonals #
The diagonal embedding O(V)(โ) โ O(V)(๐ธ_f), extending the scalars of a rational isometry to

Compatibility with the componentwise natural maps #
The diagonal commutes with the projections Spin โ SO: mapping Spin(V)(โ) to
SO(V)(๐ธ_f) through Spin(V)(๐ธ_f) or through SO(V)(โ) gives the same homomorphism.
