Tensor square of the defining C2 crystal

ID: tensor-square-of-the-defining-c2-crystal

Under the crystal tensor-product rule that uses the first factor for lowering when , the four-letter C2 root system crystal has highest tensor vertices , and . Their highest weights are , and zero. Lowering generates connected components of sizes ten, five and one, respectively; their union exhausts all sixteen vertices. The corresponding representation decomposition is the symmetric square plus the primitive exterior square and the invariant symplectic line.
