TauCeti.Algebra.AlgebraicGroup.HopfIdeal.Cotangent

The conormal sequence of a closed affine subgroup #

Let I be a Hopf ideal of a commutative Hopf algebra H. The quotient map H ⟶ H/I induces a surjection on augmentation cotangent spaces. Its kernel is the image of I in the ambient cotangent space, the conormal space of the corresponding closed subgroup at the identity. Thus there is a short exact sequence over any commutative base ring

N* ⟶ Tₑ*G ⟶ Tₑ*V(I) ⟶ 0.

Dualizing recovers the injective differential constructed in TauCeti.Algebra.AlgebraicGroup.HopfIdeal.Tangent. In finite dimension, rank-nullity gives dim Lie(V(I)) + dim N* = dim Lie(G). This is the closed-subgroup conormal and dimension tool needed in Layer 2 of the ReductiveGroups roadmap.

The image of a closed subgroup's defining Hopf ideal in the ambient augmentation cotangent space. This is the conormal space at the identity, equivalently I / (I ∩ (ker ε)²) embedded in (ker ε) / (ker ε)².

    Membership in the conormal subspace means being represented by an element of the defining Hopf ideal.

    Enlarging the defining Hopf ideal enlarges the conormal space of the corresponding closed subgroup at the identity.

      The quotient cotangent map sends the class of an augmentation-ideal element to the class of its image in the quotient.

      The quotient cotangent map sends the first-order displacement of x to the first-order displacement of its quotient class.

      Under cotangent duality, precomposition by the quotient cotangent map is the differential of the closed-subgroup inclusion.

      The map from the ambient cotangent space to the closed subgroup's cotangent space is surjective.

      The kernel of the quotient cotangent map is exactly the conormal subspace, giving the exact conormal sequence of a closed affine subgroup at the identity.

      A closed subgroup has zero conormal space at the identity exactly when every element of its defining ideal vanishes to second order there.

      The differential of a closed-subgroup inclusion is surjective exactly when the subgroup has zero conormal space at the identity. Equivalently, the inclusion is an infinitesimal equality at the identity.

      The kernel of a surjective Hopf-algebra morphism has zero conormal space when the differential of the morphism is surjective.

      In finite dimension, the dimension of the closed subgroup's cotangent space plus its conormal dimension is the dimension of the ambient cotangent space.

      For a finite-dimensional ambient cotangent space, the Lie algebra dimension of a closed subgroup plus its conormal dimension is the Lie algebra dimension of the ambient group.

      The Lie dimension of a closed subgroup is at most the Lie dimension of the ambient affine group when the ambient cotangent space is finite-dimensional.

      Every nonempty family of closed affine subgroups contains one of maximal Lie dimension.

      The family is specified by a predicate on its defining Hopf ideals. Its attained dimensions lie in the finite interval from zero to the Lie dimension of the ambient group, so a maximum exists without any finiteness assumption on the family itself.

      Lie dimension is antitone in the defining Hopf ideal: if I ≤ J, then the closed subgroup cut out by J is contained in the one cut out by I, so its Lie dimension is no larger.
