Representability of the component group #

Let H be the coordinate Hopf algebra of a finite-type affine group over an algebraically closed field. This file identifies the fppf quotient H / H⁰ with the fppf points sheaf of the finite constant group of connected components of Spec H.

The key point is stronger than local surjectivity. Every point of the constant component group over a test algebra lifts to a point of H: its orthogonal idempotents split the test algebra into components, and on each component one uses a chosen rational point of the corresponding connected component of Spec H. The kernel calculation for the component coordinate morphism then identifies the pointwise quotient with the constant-group points. Sheafifying this natural isomorphism gives the desired representability.

                The representability isomorphism carries the component-group quotient projection to the sheafification of the component-coordinate morphism on points.

                The underlying fppf sheaf of the component-group quotient is represented by the finite constant group scheme on the connected components of the prime spectrum.
