The dynamic Levi as an fppf quotient #
For a cocharacter λ of an affine group scheme, the limit morphism on the dynamic
parabolic factors through the dynamic Levi. Its section is the Levi inclusion and its
scheme-theoretic kernel is the dynamic unipotent subgroup. Consequently the fppf
quotient P(λ)/U(λ) is represented by Z(λ), compatibly with the limit projection.
These statements hold over an arbitrary commutative base ring, without smoothness, reductivity or finite-type hypotheses, and retain the full subgroup scheme structures. They supply the quotient interpretation of the dynamic Levi decomposition.
The construction uses the represented limit in Dynamic.Limit and the fppf first
isomorphism theorem CommHopfAlgCat.isIso_kernelFppfQuotientHom_of_exists_lift.
The Levi section provides global lifts over every value algebra.

The kernel of the Levi-valued dynamic limit is the dynamic unipotent subgroup, with its defining ideal transported into the parabolic coordinate algebra.
On every value algebra, the ambient point of the Levi-valued limit is the dynamic limit of the represented parabolic point.
The dynamic unipotent subgroup is normal in the represented dynamic parabolic.
The kernel-quotient comparison for the Levi-valued limit is an isomorphism of fppf sheaf groups. The Levi section lifts every point over its original value algebra.
The fppf quotient P(λ)/U(λ) is the dynamic Levi Z(λ). The subgroup in the
quotient is given by its actual defining ideal inside the parabolic coordinate ring.
