That's what I am trying to figure out. I think inproduct is the German name for inner product, but it is obviously not the typical inner product

Nobody will!
It's only about half a page, I can't cut and paste it in because of the graphics:) The basis vectors (e1, e2, e3, and e4) are spanned by the ones I give above (w,x,y,z)

I've looked at it and don't like reading TeX which shows as raw ascii TeX. Nor does coding interest me. Thus I have to wade thru it to find what the vector and lattice stuff is about. The lattices aren't explained, not even L^+ and L^-. As for graphics, forget it, they don't come thru.
