Feb 1, 2018 at 13:34 comment added Tippy Tipper @Jim Humphreys: Thanks for your comment. I think your suggestion is what I will end up pursuing.
Feb 1, 2018 at 0:04 comment added Jim Humphreys Note that the term "isogeny" has a technical meaning for algebraic groups, etc. Aside from this, it's useful to keep in mind that in type $A_n$, all fundamental weights $\varpi_i$ are minuscule, and moreover these are coset representatives (along with 0) for the $n+1$ cosets of the "fundamental group" (weight lattice modulo root lattice). Depending on the goal here, you might consider combining one of these weights with a basis of simple roots for the root lattice. These are not independent but might still be useful for computation.

Jan 31, 2018 at 20:12 comment added Tippy Tipper @LSpice: I mean lattice contained in the coweight lattice and containing the coroot lattice...in the setting of type $A_n$.
Jan 31, 2018 at 19:55 comment added LSpice By "isogeny of type $A_n$", do you mean "integer lattice containing the root lattice of type $A_n$ with finite index"?
