Naturality of Jordan decomposition for algebraic-group points #
A bialgebra morphism φ : H₁ →ₐc[k] H₂ between coordinate Hopf algebras represents a
homomorphism in the opposite direction between the corresponding affine groups. On points this
homomorphism is precomposition, TauCeti.AlgHom.mapDomain φ.
This file proves that point-level Jordan decomposition is natural under these homomorphisms. The
key compatibility is representation-theoretic: acting by the precomposed point on an
H₁-comodule is the same as first corestricting that comodule along φ and then acting by the
original H₂-point. The earlier point-action and semisimple-point APIs provide this compatibility;
uniqueness of the commuting semisimple--unipotent factorization then identifies the images of both
Jordan factors.
This is the functoriality-under-homomorphisms part of Layer 4, "Jordan decomposition", in the ReductiveGroups roadmap.

A point is semisimple exactly when its unipotent part is the identity.
Precomposition with a surjective coordinate Hopf-algebra morphism detects semisimple points.
Contravariantly, this says that a point of a closed subgroup is semisimple exactly when its image in the ambient affine group is semisimple.
