On ⋀2C4, the invariant Hermitian form and volume tensor define the displayed antilinear map with square one, commuting with SU(4). Its fixed space satisfies T12=T34, T13=−T24, and T14=T23. Three complex choices give six real coordinates, and this fixed space has the original exterior square as its complexification. It is therefore a real representation of dimension six, rather than merely the twelve-dimensional realification of an arbitrary six-dimensional complex representation.
