Description

The current implementation of Lorentz vectors in Lean, defines some preliminary modules and representations, these include Co, Contr etc.

These can be removed and simply replaced with Vector and CoVector, with a careful seperation of definitions into the required modules. Similar for the complex case.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing Lean Lorentz-vector implementation and the closed pull request #1049. Identify the preliminary modules and representations named in the issue, including Co and Contr, then determine how Vector and CoVector should replace them while separating definitions into the required modules. Done means the pre-Lorentz definitions are removed for both real and complex cases.
