Root system data for type G#

class sage.combinat.root_system.type_G.AmbientSpace(root_system, base_ring, index_set=None)#

Bases: AmbientSpace

EXAMPLES:

sage: e = RootSystem(['G',2]).ambient_space(); e
Ambient space of the Root system of type ['G', 2]

One can not construct the ambient lattice because the simple coroots have rational coefficients:

sage: e.simple_coroots()
Finite family {1: (0, 1, -1), 2: (1/3, -2/3, 1/3)}
sage: e.smallest_base_ring()
Rational Field

By default, this ambient space uses the barycentric projection for plotting:

sage: # needs sage.symbolic
sage: L = RootSystem(["G",2]).ambient_space()
sage: e = L.basis()
sage: L._plot_projection(e[0])
(1/2, 989/1142)
sage: L._plot_projection(e[1])
(-1, 0)
sage: L._plot_projection(e[2])
(1/2, -989/1142)
sage: L = RootSystem(["A",3]).ambient_space()
sage: l = L.an_element(); l
(2, 2, 3, 0)
sage: L._plot_projection(l)
(0, -1121/1189, 7/3)

coxeter_number()#

Return the Coxeter number associated with self.

EXAMPLES:

sage: CartanType(['G',2]).coxeter_number()

This uses that \(G_2\) is self-dual up to relabelling.

EXAMPLES:

sage: G2 = CartanType(['G',2])
sage: G2.dual()
['G', 2] relabelled by {1: 2, 2: 1}
