How statement and proof provenance work

The first chip identifies the source of the statement or construction; the second identifies the source of its local proof or verification.

  • Literature-sourced: the exact statement appears in a cited source; only wording and notation differ.
  • AI-adapted: a semantically identical restatement of literature-sourced material, modulo indexing, notation, and boundary cases adopted by the library.
  • AI-generated: a genuinely novel statement formulated by AI, with no source for the claim itself.

These labels describe origin, not correctness: citations and verification chips remain separate evidence.

Integral residues of the negative half: freeness, the crystal basis and the form characterization

Statement

Let LZ(∞)=UA−∩L(∞) be the integral residue lattice of The integral residue lattices LA(∞) and LA(λ), with LZ/qLZ→L(∞)/qL(∞) the canonical injection. Then the image of this injection is exactly ⨁b∈B(∞)Zb; in particular LZ/qLZ is a free Z-module with basis B(∞), and after tensoring with Q it is the full rational crystal space Q⊗Z⨁bZb=L(∞)/qL(∞).

The normalized Kashiwara half form of The negative-half bilinear form is symmetric, nondegenerate and integral takes values on UA− in KZ=Z[q,q−1,(1−q2n)−1:n≥1] and on LZ in AZ=Z[q,(1−q2n)−1:n≥1]; consequently its residue pairing on LZ/qLZ is Z-valued. In the residue basis B(∞) the coefficients of an integral element are its integer pairings with the basis vectors, and the norm-1 elements of the integral residue LZ/qLZ are exactly B(∞)∪(−B(∞)). The Kashiwara operators e~i,f~i preserve LZ, hence induce endomorphisms of the integral residue subgroup. No A-module structure on LZ, no identification of the integral residue with the rational residue as a Z-module, and no unsigned norm-1 characterization is asserted; the module integral residue basis is established only in the globalization theorem of this page.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The negative half Uq− with its divided-power form UA−, the crystal lattice L(∞) and residue basis B(∞), and the integral residue lattice LZ(∞)=UA−∩L(∞).

[F1]

Integral residue lattice (The integral residue lattices LA(∞) and LA(λ)): LZ is a Z[q]-module, MA∩qL=qLZ with MA=UA−, and LZ/qLZ→L(∞)/qL(∞) is injective; also LZ‾=UA−∩ψ(L(∞)).

[F2]

Integral skew-string coefficients (Integral skew-string coefficients on the divided-power negative half): the string coefficients of the divided-power half are integral and both Kashiwara operators together with the skew derivations preserve UA−.

[F3]

Crystal basis of the negative half (The crystal basis B(∞) of the negative half): (L(∞),B(∞)) is a crystal basis, B(∞) is a basis of L(∞)/qL(∞), and e~i,f~i preserve L(∞).

[F4]

Polarization values at q=0 (Crystal lattice polarizations are perfect at q=0): the normalized Kashiwara form is the q=0 polarization; B(P,Q)∈A0 whenever P,Q∈L(∞), and the induced form on L(∞)/qL(∞) is the positive definite Q-valued form in which B(∞) is orthonormal.

[F5]

Half form values (The negative-half bilinear form is symmetric, nondegenerate and integral, The Lusztig-Kashiwara bilinear form on the negative half: the recursion): B is the unique normalized homogeneous form with B(FiP,Q)=B(P,ei′Q); its divided-power word denominator bound is ∏i∏r≥1(1−qi2r)−νi-admissible, and B(UA−,UA−)⊆KZ.

[C1]

Choice: the Axiom of Choice is inherited only through the supplied grand-loop and crystal-basis results (The Axiom of Choice); no additional selection is made in this item, and all stated bases are the supplied ones.

Proof

technique · direct
1.1F2F3

Integral representatives of the crystal basis. By [F2] every divided-power lowering word f~i1⋯f~ir1 lies in UA−, and by [F3] it lies in L(∞); hence its class lies in LZ/qLZ and is a nonzero element of B(∞), and every b∈B(∞) is represented by such a word.

1.2F4F5algebra

The value rings. The explicit rank-one divided-word norms B(Fi(a),Fi(a))=1/[a]qi2!=∏r=1a(1+qi2+⋯+qi2(r−1))−1 and the word Gram expansion of [F5] show that every value on UA− is a Z[q,q−1]-combination of reciprocal products ∏(1−qi2r)−1 with bounded r, i.e. lies in KZ; and every value on LZ=UA−∩L(∞) lies in A0∩KZ by [F4]. The intersection is AZ: clearing denominators in A0∩KZ writes the value as a Laurent polynomial with denominator ∏(1−q2n)e of constant term 1, regularity at q=0 forces the Laurent polynomial to have no negative powers, and evaluation at 0 gives an integer. Hence the residue pairing of LZ/qLZ is Z-valued.

2.1F1F4F5step 1.1

Integrality of coefficients against representatives. For x∈LZ with rational residue ∑babb∈L(∞)/qL(∞), choose for each b an integral representative wb of b from step 1.1 and pair modulo q: by [F4] the residue form is the positive definite form with orthonormal basis B(∞), so ab=(x,wb) modulo q, and by [F5] this value lies in AZ; evaluating the resulting Z[q]-element at q=0 gives an integer because AZ consists of quotients with denominator ≡1(modq). Hence every coefficient ab is an integer and the image of the injection of [F1] is contained in ⨁bZb; conversely finite integer combinations of the classes of the wb lie in the image, so the image is exactly ⨁bZb.

3.1F4F5step 2.1algebra

Norm-one residue classes. For an integral residue xˉ=∑babb, step 2.1 gives ab∈Z, and [F4] gives B0(xˉ,xˉ)=∑bab2. This equals 1 exactly when xˉ=±b for one crystal element. This class statement does not characterize the exact norm of its lattice representatives: in rank one F(2) represents a crystal element but has norm 1/(1+q2). In particular an exact norm-1 lattice vector has a signed basis residue, while the converse need not hold.

4.1F2F3step 1.2step 2.1step 3.1∎

Operator stability and conclusion. By [F2] and [F3] the operators e~i,f~i preserve both UA− and L(∞), hence preserve LZ=UA−∩L(∞) and descend to the integral residue subgroup, which by steps 1.1–1.2 is the free Z-module ⨁bZb; tensoring with Q gives the full rational crystal space by [F3]. Together with steps 2.1 and 3.1 this proves all the assertions, with the stated Z-valued pairing and signed norm-1 characterization.
