Recovering morphisms from Galois-equivariant characters #
For a finite Galois extension L/k, descent of group algebras is fully faithful:
Hopf algebra morphisms between the descended coordinate algebras correspond bijectively
to equivariant homomorphisms of the exponent groups. The inverse takes the map on group-like
elements after scalar extension and uses the canonical character comparisons.
This supplies the morphism part of the character-group classification of groups of
multiplicative type split by L, including tori. The exponent groups need not be finitely
generated or torsion-free.
Under the character comparison of Galois.Character, the descended morphisms of
Galois.Map induce the original equivariant maps on exponent groups.

Evaluation of the recovered map in terms of the canonical character comparisons.
The character comparison is natural for descended morphisms: their map on characters is the original equivariant map on exponents.
Recovering the character map of a descended morphism returns the original map.
Descending the recovered character map returns the original Hopf algebra morphism. In particular, every morphism between the descended groups is induced by a character map.
Full faithfulness of finite Galois descent for group algebras. Equivariant homomorphisms of exponent groups correspond bijectively to morphisms of their descended coordinate Hopf algebras. No finiteness or torsion-freeness assumption on the exponent groups is needed.
