Geometric normal-subgroup-freeness properties #

This file packages the common construction behind the reductive and semisimple predicates. Given an isomorphism-invariant property P of finite-type commutative Hopf algebras over an algebraic closure, geometricNormalSubgroupFreeCommHopfAlgProperty k P says that the ambient group is smooth and geometrically connected and that every connected normal closed subgroup satisfying P is trivial.

The construction is invariant under isomorphism and can be established using an isomorphic coordinate model of the geometric fibre. Its shared API also shows that, when the whole geometric fibre satisfies P, its zero Hopf ideal is the augmentation ideal and its coordinate algebra is bialgebra-equivalent to the algebraic closure via the counit.

Main declarations #

This is shared infrastructure for the reductive and semisimple definitions in Layer 6, "Reductive and semisimple groups", of the ReductiveGroups roadmap.

The object property selecting smooth geometrically connected finite-type affine groups whose connected normal geometric subgroups satisfying P are all trivial.

The candidate property P is imposed on the coordinate Hopf algebra of the subgroup, represented contravariantly as a quotient by a normal Hopf ideal.
