In weight one, the Hodge numbers are , and the Hodge filtration is determined by the -plane . The bilinear orthogonality condition is . An isotropic -plane in a symplectic -space is a Lagrangian subspace, so
The ordinary Grassmannian has dimension . Restriction of the alternating form to an -plane imposes independent conditions. Equivalently, near a fixed Lagrangian plane, transverse Lagrangians are graphs of symmetric matrices, with independent entries. Therefore
Write in the block order of the given matrix. On , positivity is for every nonzero . The plane cannot contain , because that vector has . Projection onto the second coordinate factor is therefore injective on and, by equal dimensions, an isomorphism. There is a unique matrix such that
For and , direct evaluation gives
Thus isotropy is exactly . For such ,
Hence positivity is precisely positive definiteness of . Conversely, symmetry and this inequality define a positive Lagrangian plane; it is opposed to its conjugate because forces . We have explicitly identified
the Siegel upper half-space. The choice of the graph , rather than , is what matches the sign of the given symplectic form.
Let an integral element of the symplectic group have block matrix
Acting on graph vectors gives
The image remains a positive Lagrangian plane, so its second projection is invertible. Thus is invertible and the induced action is
The symplectic identities give symmetry of this matrix, and preservation of gives
This is a Hermitian congruence by an invertible matrix, so it proves preservation of the positive domain as well as describing the action. These are coordinates on marked Hodge structures; passing to the integral-group quotient forgets the symplectic marking.
