map via
The function maps an element of the unitary group (represented as complex numbers with absolute value 1) to a unitary matrix in . Specifically, it maps to the scalar matrix , where is the identity matrix. This represents a 2-dimensional representation of with charge 3.
2D representation of with charge 3
The group homomorphism from the unitary group to the unitary group (the group of complex unitary matrices) representing a 2-dimensional representation with charge 3. Specifically, for an element , the representation maps to the scalar matrix , where is the identity matrix.
Fundamental representation of
The group homomorphism from the special unitary group to the unitary group that corresponds to the fundamental representation. It maps a complex matrix with and to itself, viewed as an element of the unitary group of degree 2.
Commutativity of (charge 3) and fundamental representations
For any element in the unitary group and any element in the special unitary group , the 2-dimensional representation of with charge 3 and the fundamental representation of commute within the unitary group . That is, , where and is the inclusion of into .
