Normal Hopf ideals #
A Hopf ideal I in a commutative Hopf algebra H defines a closed subgroup of the affine
group represented by H. This file defines normality of that closed subgroup in Hopf-algebra
coordinates: the ideal is stable under the coordinate morphism of conjugation,
c♯ : H → H ⊗[R] H,
with the first tensor factor carrying the conjugating variable. Thus I is normal when
c♯(I) ⊆ H ⊗ I. It also verifies the pointwise meaning of this condition: over every
commutative value algebra, the subgroup cut out by a normal Hopf ideal is a normal subgroup of
the ambient group of points.
Normal Hopf ideals are closed under arbitrary suprema. Every Hopf ideal has a normal core: the
largest normal Hopf ideal below it. This normal-core API is the Hopf-ideal analogue of Mathlib's
Subgroup.normalCore at the level of the ideal lattice. Since the ideal-to-subgroup dictionary is
contravariant, J.normalCore cuts out the smallest normal closed subgroup containing the subgroup
cut out by J, namely its normal closure.

The coordinate criterion is the usual adjoint-coaction characterization of a normal closed subgroup; see J. S. Milne, Algebraic Groups (2017), §3.5 and §10.20. This is the normality prerequisite in Layer 3, “Normality and quotients”, of the ReductiveGroups roadmap.
A Hopf ideal is normal when the coordinate morphism of conjugation carries it into
H ⊗ I. The first tensor factor of HopfAlgebra.conjugationAlgHom is the conjugating
variable, so the right tensor ideal is the ideal of G × V(I).
