Correction X1.3 · GL₆/Sp₆ at Σμ=4: the twelve values of R1–R3, e₂∉span, one larger-box translate
proved correction
The twelve values of the in-box translates \(R_1,R_2,R_3\) of Dead end 4.10 on \(c_1,\dots,c_4\) are proved as polynomials in \(q\) by explicit counts, and confirmed by direct lattice enumeration at \(q=2,3,5\); four of Dead end 4.10's values are false, \(e_2\notin\operatorname{span}(R_1,R_2,R_3)\) still holds, and \(T_{(2,0,0,0,0,0)}\ast\varphi_0=q(q+1)\mathbf 1_{c_1}\) completes the span.
Correction X1.3.
Let \(X=\mathrm{GL}_6/\mathrm{Sp}_6\) over any non-archimedean \(F\) with residue field \(\mathbb F_q\). Let \(c_1,\dots,c_4\) be the labels \((2,2,0,0,0,0)\), \((1,1,1,1,0,0)\), \((2,2,1,1,-1,-1)\), \((2,2,2,2,-2,-2)\), represented by \(x=\bigoplus_pt^{a_p}J_2\) with \(a=(2,0,0),(1,1,0),(2,1,-1),(2,2,-2)\), and let \(R_i=T_{\lambda_i}\ast\varphi_0\) with \(\lambda_1=(1,1,0,0,0,0)\), \(\lambda_2=(1,1,1,0,0,-1)\), \(\lambda_3=(1,1,1,1,-1,-1)\) (lattice types \(-w_0\lambda_i\): \((0,0,0,0,-1,-1)\), \((1,0,0,-1,-1,-1)\), \((1,1,-1,-1,-1,-1)\)). Then, for every \(q\), the \(R_i\) vanish off \(c_1,\dots,c_4\) and
| \(c_1\) | \(c_2\) | \(c_3\) | \(c_4\) | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| \(R_1\) | \(1\) | \((q+1)(q^2+1)\) | \(0\) | \(0\) |
| \(R_2\) | \(q(q+1)(q^2+1)\) | \(q^3(q+1)^2(q^2+1)\) | \((q+1)^2\) | \(0\) |
| \(R_3\) | \(q^3(q+1)(q^2+1)\) | \(0\) | \(q(q^2-1)\) | \(1\) |
- Dead end 4.10's values of \(R_2(c_1)\), \(R_2(c_2)\), \(R_3(c_1)\), \(R_3(c_3)\) are false; its other eight values are right. (This confirms Correction 10.7, part 1.)
- \(e_2:=\mathbf 1_{\mathcal O_{c_2}}\notin\operatorname{span}(R_1,R_2,R_3)\): confirmed, but the elimination must use the \(c_4\)-entry first, since \(R_3(c_3)\ne0\).
- \(T_{(2,0,0,0,0,0)}\ast\varphi_0=q(q+1)\mathbf 1_{\mathcal O_{c_1}}\) (lattice type \((0,0,0,0,0,-2)\), outside the box), so
one translate from the box \(t^2\mathcal O^6\subseteq M\subseteq t^{-2}\mathcal O^6\) completes the span, exactly as \(T_{(2,0,0,0)}\) does for \(\mathrm{GL}_4/\mathrm{Sp}_4\) (Correction X1.1).
- Counting problem. As in Correction X1.1, step 1, \(R_i(x)\) is the number of lattices \(M\) with \(\operatorname{inv}(\mathcal O^6,M)=-w_0\lambda_i\) and \(M=M^*\), \(M^*=\{v:x(v,M)\subseteq\mathcal O\}\). The three types are the types with entries in \([-1,1]\) and sum \(-2\), i.e. \(t\mathcal O^6\subseteq M\subseteq t^{-1}\mathcal O^6\).
- Support and reduction. Integrality on \(t\mathcal O^6\) gives \(a_p\ge-2\); \(M=M^*\supseteq(t^{-1}\mathcal O^6)^*=\bigoplus_pt^{1-a_p}\mathcal O^2\) together with \(M\subseteq t^{-1}\mathcal O^6\) gives \(a_p\le2\); the determinant gives \(\sum a_p=2\). The labels with \(a_1\ge a_2\ge a_3\) in \([-2,2]\) and sum \(2\) are exactly \(c_1,\dots,c_4\). With \(A:=t\mathcal O^6+(t^{-1}\mathcal O^6)^*\), every such \(M\) satisfies \(A\subseteq M\subseteq A^*\), and \(M\mapsto L=M/A\) is a bijection onto the Lagrangian \(\mathcal O\)-submodules of \(Q=A^*/A\) (the reduction of Correction 10.7, step 1, re-derived).
- \(c_4\). \(A=t^{-1}\mathcal O^4\oplus t\mathcal O^2=A^*\): one lattice, of type \((1,1,-1,-1,-1,-1)\). So \(R_3(c_4)=1\), \(R_1(c_4)=R_2(c_4)=0\).
- \(c_3\). \(A=t^{-1}\mathcal O^2\oplus\mathcal O^2\oplus t\mathcal O^2\), \(A^*=t^{-1}\mathcal O^4\oplus\mathcal O^2\), \(Q=H_1\perp H_2\) with \(H_1=t^{-1}\mathcal O^2/\mathcal O^2\), \(H_2=\mathcal O^2/t\mathcal O^2\) symplectic planes over \(\mathbb F_q\). Block 1 contributes \((-1,-1)\); in coordinates \(3,\dots,6\) the type is \((1^r,0^{4-2r},(-1)^r)\) with \(r=\dim\mathrm{pr}_{H_1}L=2-\dim(L\cap H_2)\). \(r=0\) would make \(L=H_2\), not isotropic. \(r=1\): \(L=\ell\oplus\ell'\) with \(\ell\subset H_2\), \(\ell'\subset H_1\) lines: \((q+1)^2\), type of \(R_2\). \(r=2\): the remaining Lagrangian planes, \((q+1)(q^2+1)-(q+1)^2=q(q^2-1)\), type of \(R_3\). So \(c_3\mapsto(0,(q+1)^2,q(q^2-1))\).
- \(c_1\). \(A=t^{-1}\mathcal O^2\oplus t\mathcal O^4\), \(A^*=t^{-1}\mathcal O^6\); so \(M=t^{-1}\mathcal O^2\oplus M'\) with \(L'=M'/t\mathcal O^4\) a Lagrangian submodule of \(R_2^4\) (\(R_2=\mathcal O/t^2\)) for the perfect form \(t^{-2}J_4\). The type of \(M'\) is \((0,0,0,0)\), \((1,0,0,-1)\), \((1,1,-1,-1)\) according as \(L'\) has module type \((1^4)\), \((2,1,1)\), \((2,2)\). These were counted in Correction X1.2, step 4 (column \((2,2,0)\), the same module): \(1\); \(q(q+1)(q^2+1)\) (\(L'=\mathcal Ou+t\widetilde{\bar u^\perp}\)); \(q^3(q+1)(q^2+1)\) (\(R_2\)-points of the smooth \(\mathrm{LG}(2,4)\)). Correction 10.7 obtains the last two from Macdonald's count for \(\mathrm{Sp}_4\); the derivations agree.
- \(c_2\) (orthogonal-sum count, independent of Correction 10.7's \(\ell^\perp/\ell\) reduction). \(A=\mathcal O^4\oplus t\mathcal O^2\), \(A^*=t^{-1}\mathcal O^6\), \(Q=V\perp W\) with \(V=t^{-1}\mathcal O^4/\mathcal O^4\cong\mathbb F_q^4\) (form \(t^{-1}J_4\)) and \(W=t^{-1}\mathcal O^2/t\mathcal O^2\cong R_2^2\) (form \(t^{-2}J_2\)). The image of \(M\) in \(t^{-1}\mathcal O^6/\mathcal O^6\) is \(L/(L\cap tW)\), so the type has \(4-d\) entries \(-1\) and, by \(\sum=-2\), \(2-d\) entries \(+1\), where \(d=\dim(L\cap tW)\): \(d=2,1,0\) give \(R_1,R_2,R_3\). For a Lagrangian \(L\) of \(V\perp W\), put \(K_V=L\cap V\), \(K_W=L\cap W\); comparing \(|L|=|K_V||\mathrm{pr}_WL|=|K_W||\mathrm{pr}_VL|\) with \(|L|^2=|V||W|\) and \(\mathrm{pr}_VL\subseteq K_V^\perp\), \(\mathrm{pr}_WL\subseteq K_W^\perp\) shows that \(L\) is the graph of an anti-isometry \(K_V^\perp/K_V\to K_W^\perp/K_W\), and conversely. The isotropic submodules of \(W\) are \(0\), the \(q+1\) lines \(\ell\subset tW\), the \(q(q+1)\) cyclic \(\mathcal Ow\) (\(w\) primitive), and \(tW\).
- \(K_W=0\): \(W\) is not killed by \(t\), \(K_V^\perp/K_V\) is; impossible.
- \(K_W=\ell\): \(K_W^\perp=\mathcal Ow_0+tW\), \(K_W^\perp/K_W\cong\mathbb F_q^2\) symplectic; \(K_V\) a line (\((q+1)(q^2+1)\)), \(q(q^2-1)\) anti-isometries; \(d=1\).
- \(K_W=\mathcal Ow\): Lagrangian, so \(K_V\) is Lagrangian (\((q+1)(q^2+1)\)); \(d=\dim t\mathcal Ow=1\).
- \(K_W=tW\): \(K_V\) Lagrangian; \(d=2\). Hence \(R_1(c_2)=(q+1)(q^2+1)\), \(R_2(c_2)=(q+1)(q^2+1)\big[(q+1)q(q^2-1)+q(q+1)\big]=q^3(q+1)^2(q^2+1)\), \(R_3(c_2)=0\).
- Comparison with Dead end 4.10. It had \(R_2(c_1)=(q^4-1)/(q-1)\), \(R_2(c_2)=(q+1)(q^2+1)(q^2+q)\), \(R_3(c_1)=(q+1)(q^2+1)\), \(R_3(c_3)=0\); at \(q=3\): \(40,480,40,0\) against the true \(120,4320,1080,24\). The other eight entries agree.
- Statement 2. If \(e_2=\alpha R_1+\beta R_2+\gamma R_3\): the \(c_4\)-entry gives \(\gamma=0\); then the \(c_3\)-entry gives \((q+1)^2\beta=0\); then the \(c_1\)-entry gives \(\alpha=0\); the \(c_2\)-entry gives \(0=1\). Since the in-box translates of degree \(-2\) are exactly \(R_1,R_2,R_3\) and \(C_K\) is graded by \(\operatorname{val}\operatorname{Pf}\), no combination of in-box translates equals \(e_2\).
- Statement 3. By Lemma 1 of Lemma 5.6 (re-proved in Correction X1.2, step 1) with \(d=2\), \(T_{(2,0,0,0,0,0)}\ast\varphi_0=q(q+1)\mathbf 1_{\mathcal O_{(2,2,0,0,0,0)}}\), and \(R_1=\mathbf 1_{\mathcal O_{c_1}}+(q+1)(q^2+1)e_2\).
- Machine check (different method from Correction 10.7's enumeration of Lagrangians of \(Q\)). Direct Hermite-normal-form enumeration of all \(x\)-unimodular \(M\subseteq t^{-1}\mathcal O^6\) over \(\mathbb F_q[\![t]\!]\), types by Smith reduction: all twelve entries agree with the table for \(q=2,3,5\) (at \(q=5\): \(R_1=(1,156,0,0)\), \(R_2=(780,117000,36,0)\), \(R_3=(19500,0,120,1)\)); \(T_{(2,0,\dots,0)}\) gives \((6,0,0,0)\) and \((12,0,0,0)\) at \(q=2,3\); for seven labels with \(\sum a=2\) and an entry outside \([-2,2]\) there is no in-box unimodular lattice (\(q=2,3\)). The counts in steps 3–6 use only configurations over \(\mathbb F_q\) and \(\mathcal O/t^2\) and hold for every \(F\) and \(q\).
