3.4 ESTABILIZACIÓN QUÍMICA DE SUELOS
3.4.2 Ensayos a realizar en suelos estabilizados
Beginning with Section 9.2, we assumed that our algebra
gwas simply laced. However, there are
minuscule weights in the non-simply laced type
B
andC
root systems. There is a single minuscule
weight for each type
C
system. There a dimension calculation shows that the corresponding Plücker
module
I
= 0, and so there are no Plücker relations for its flag variety. There is also a single
minuscule weight for each typeB
system. For this case we deduce results about its Plücker relations
from our results for a simply-laced type
D
case through the strategy of “diagram folding.” This
uses an embedding of a typeB
n−1Lie algebra into one of typeD
n. This strategy has been used for
example in [33, 34].
We describe this embedding concretely. Fixn≥3. LetV
be the 2n-dimensional complex vector
space with nondegenerate symmetric bilinear form
h·,·i
defined in Section 7.1, and consider the
orthogonal Lie algebrag:=o(V) which is simple of typeD
n. Let
L⊂V
be the line spanned by
the vector
v
0]−v
0[and let
g
0⊂g
be the subalgebra of endomorphisms that annihilate
L. Then
g
0stabilizes the orthogonal complement
W
:=
L
⊥; it is the hyperplane spanned by the vectors
{v
n, . . . , v
1, v
0]+v
0[, v
1, . . . , v
n}. It is simple to check that the restrictionh·,·i
Wof the bilinear form
to
W
is again nondegenerate. Every endomorphism of
W
that fixes
h·,·i
Wis faithfully represented
in the restriction of the endomorphisms in
g
0toW. Hence
g
0is isomorphic to an orthogonal Lie
algebra for a 2n−1 dimensional vector space with nondegenerate symmetric bilinear form. Therefore
the subalgebra
g
0⊂gis simple of type
B
n−1, and so we rename it
g
B. Label the typeB
n−1and
typeD

Let
λbe one of the two spin weights
ω

g. LetP
:=P
λbe the corresponding minuscule
poset, and construct Wildberger’s representation
V
J(P)of
g. Define the unique
g-submodule
I
⊂Sym
2(V
J(P)) as for Problem 9.1. The subalgebra
g
B⊂g
acts naturally on
V
J(P). Then the
g
BsubmoduleV
B:=U(g
B).ℵ
of
V
J(P)is an irreducible representation of
g
Bwhose highest weight
λ
B:=ω
0is its unique minuscule weight. Now one can pose Problem 9.1 for the
g
B-module
V
B:
The

Proposition 9.23.
The
g
B-modules

BandV
J(P)are equal. Moreover, the subspaces
I
and
I
Bof
Sym
2(V
J(P)
) =Sym
2(V
B)
are equal.
Proof.
We have that
V
B⊆
V
J(P). The first assertion follows from the standard dimension fact
dim(V
B) = 2
n−1= dim(V
J(P)). We have
U(g
B).(ℵ)
2⊆U(g).(ℵ)
2. Since
g-modules are naturally
g
B-modules, the
g-module decomposition
Sym
2(V
J(P)
) =
U(g).(ℵ)
2⊕I
is also a
g
B-module de-
composition. Since the complementary
g
B-module
I
Band
g-module
I
are each unique, we have
I
⊆I
B.
We now show that dim(U(g
B).(ℵ)
2) = dim(U(g).(ℵ)
2). We use the usual notation for the root
system of
g. Let Φ
B⊂h
∗Bdenote the root system ofg
B. Let
ρ
B∈h
∗Bdenote the Weyl vector for
the root system Φ
B. By the Weyl dimension formula, we have that dim(V
B) =
Y α∈Φ+B
h2λ
B+ρ
B, αi
hρ
B, αi
and dim(V
J(P)) =
Y α∈Φ+h2λ+ρ, αi
hρ, αi
. We takeλ

α

B(resp.

Φ) with no
α0
(resp.
α
]) component, we have that
h2λ
B+ρ
B, αi
=
hρ
B, αi
(resp. without the subscript
B) and so the corresponding factor in the Weyl dimension formula above is 1. The remaining
roots in Φ

≤n−2. The remaining roots in Φ are the
roots

{α

[+ 2α

for
0≤i < j
≤n−2. These two sets of roots match up in the obvious fashion from Φ to Φ
Bwhen
restricting the domain toh
B. By considering short and long roots of Φ
Bseparately, it is easy to see
that for matching rootsα∈Φ
Bandβ
∈Φ as above we have
hρ
B, αi=hρ, βi. For both the short
and long roots
α∈Φ
Babove, we have that
h2λ
B, αi= 2. Similarly for the rootsβ
∈Φ above, we
have thath2λ, βi= 2. Hence, all of the corresponding factors in the Weyl dimension formulae are
equal.
From dim(U(g
B).(ℵ)
2) = dim(U(g).(ℵ)
2), it follows that dim(I
B
) = dim(I). Therefore
I
B=I
as vector spaces.
This proposition allows us to obtain some Plücker relations for
g
Bby first applying Section 9.3
with the simply laced algebra
gto obtain extreme weight relations inI, and then recognizing those
as Plücker relations in
I
B. From this we obtain the final ingredient for Theorem 9.5:
Corollary 9.24.
