Finite adelic orthogonal, special orthogonal, and Spin groups #
Let Q be a quadratic form on a finite-dimensional rational vector space V, and let U be a
compatible family of compact-open reference subgroups of the local orthogonal and Spin groups
(TauCeti.QuadraticMap.OrthogonalCompactOpens). This file forms the three finite adelic point
groups O(V)(๐ธ_f), SO(V)(๐ธ_f) and Spin(V)(๐ธ_f): the restricted products over the primes of
the local groups of Q โ โ_p relative to U, the special orthogonal reference subgroups being the
ones derived from the orthogonal family.
Every reference subgroup is open, so each of the three restricted products is a Hausdorff
topological group for its restricted-product topology, and the orthogonal and Spin ones are
locally compact because their reference subgroups are compact. The local topologies are the
canonical ones on linear automorphisms and on the Clifford algebra, so the compactness and
openness recorded in U are statements about these adelic groups.
The local projections Spin(V_p) โ SO(V_p) โ O(V_p) carry the reference subgroups into one
another at every prime, so they assemble into continuous componentwise homomorphisms of finite
adelic groups. The map SO(V)(๐ธ_f) โ O(V)(๐ธ_f) is injective, and its image is exactly the
finite adelic isometries whose every component has determinant one: a proper isometry lying in
U_p^O lies in the derived subgroup U_p^{SO} by definition, so no integrality is lost. For a
nondegenerate form on a nonzero space, the kernel of Spin(V)(๐ธ_f) โ SO(V)(๐ธ_f) consists of the
finite adeles whose every component is 1 or -1.
Local isometries Q โ โ_p โ Q' โ โ_p which carry the reference subgroups onto one another at
almost every prime identify the finite adelic groups of Q and Q' through
TauCeti.restrictedProductCongrRight, and these identifications intertwine the componentwise
projections Spin โ SO โ O.

The three finite adelic groups #
The finite adelic orthogonal group O(V)(๐ธ_f): the restricted product of the local
orthogonal groups O(V_p) relative to the reference subgroups U.orthogonal p.

The finite adelic special orthogonal group SO(V)(๐ธ_f): the restricted product of the local

relative to the reference subgroups U.spin p.

Topology #
The orthogonal reference subgroups are open, which makes the finite adelic orthogonal group a topological group.
The special orthogonal reference subgroups are open, which makes the finite adelic special orthogonal group a topological group.
The Spin reference subgroups are open, which makes the finite adelic Spin group a topological group.
The orthogonal reference subgroups are compact spaces.
The Spin reference subgroups are compact spaces.
The componentwise projections #
The componentwise projection Spin(V)(๐ธ_f) โ SO(V)(๐ธ_f), assembled from the local Spin
projections, which carry U.spin p into the derived subgroup U.specialOrthogonal p.
Instances For
The adelic Spin projection is the local Spin projection at every prime.
The adelic Spin projection is continuous.
The componentwise inclusion SO(V)(๐ธ_f) โ O(V)(๐ธ_f). It is well defined because the special
orthogonal reference subgroups are the preimages of the orthogonal ones.
Instances For
The adelic inclusion of SO into O is the local inclusion at every prime.
The adelic inclusion of SO into O is continuous.
The adelic inclusion of SO into O is injective.
A finite adelic isometry comes from the finite adelic special orthogonal group exactly when
each of its components has determinant one. The derived reference subgroups make this exact:
a proper local isometry in U.orthogonal p lies in U.specialOrthogonal p.
For a nondegenerate form, a finite adelic Spin element projects to the
identity of SO(V)(๐ธ_f) exactly when each of its components is 1 or -1 in the local Clifford
algebra.
