Representability of dynamic unipotent subgroups #
For a cocharacter l of an affine group, the dynamic unipotent subgroup consists of
points whose conjugation family extends over the origin with value the identity. It is
cut out by the negative coefficients of universal conjugation, together with the
differences between its constant coefficients and the counit. These equations represent
the subgroup over every commutative value algebra, including nonreduced algebras.
The quotient by this coefficient ideal represents the dynamic unipotent functor. In particular it is a closed affine subgroup of the ambient group, without finite-type, smoothness, field, or reductivity assumptions. This is the unipotent factor in the dynamic Levi decomposition; no identification with the unipotent radical is asserted.
The construction uses the universal conjugation coefficients and parabolic representing
ideal from Dynamic.Representability, and the pointwise Hopf-ideal criterion and natural
quotient-points isomorphism from HopfIdeal.Points.
The main constructions are BialgHom.unipotentDefiningHopfIdeal and
BialgHom.unipotentPointsIso. Their coefficient and evaluation lemmas characterize both
the defining equations and the representing isomorphism.

A parabolic point has trivial dynamic limit exactly when it annihilates the differences between the universal constant coefficients and the counit.

Instances For
The underlying ideal is generated by the parabolic ideal and the constant-coefficient differences from the counit.
Membership in the unipotent defining ideal is membership in its coefficient ideal.
The dynamic unipotent defining ideal contains the parabolic defining ideal.
The constant coefficient of universal conjugation equals the counit on the dynamic unipotent subgroup.
The unipotent ideal is the smallest Hopf ideal containing the parabolic ideal and all constant-coefficient differences from the counit.
The points cut out by the coefficient ideal are exactly the dynamic unipotent subgroup.
If the dynamic parabolic of a cocharacter is the whole group, then the dynamic unipotent subgroup is a normal closed subgroup of the whole group.
The coefficient Hopf quotient represents the dynamic unipotent functor.
Instances For
The representing isomorphism sends a quotient point to its ambient unipotent point.
Factoring a dynamic unipotent point through the representing algebra recovers its ambient point.
