Invariants of normal closed subgroups #

Let H be a commutative Hopf algebra and M an H-comodule. A point of the affine group represented by H acts naturally on M itself when its value algebra is the base ring. For a Hopf ideal I, this file defines the submodule fixed by the base-valued points of the closed subgroup cut out by I.

When I is normal, its point subgroup is normal over every value algebra. The standard theorem that the invariants of a normal subgroup form a subrepresentation therefore shows that this fixed submodule is preserved by every ambient point. This is the pointwise algebraic-group input to the direct proof that GLₙ is reductive: the fixed vectors of a normal unipotent subgroup in the standard representation form an ambient subrepresentation.

The definition deliberately says basePointFixedSubmodule: without a point-separation hypothesis, base-valued points need not detect scheme-theoretic invariants. The normality and stability results require no reducedness, finite-type, or field hypotheses.

For a reduced ambient group of finite type over an algebraically closed field, HopfIdeal.IsNormal.weightSpaceOneSubcomodule instead constructs the scheme-theoretic invariant representation. It is the subgroup's trivial-character weight space, which normality makes ambient-stable. The subgroup itself need not be reduced. Its points over every commutative value algebra act trivially on these invariant vectors.

The group-representation step is Mathlib's Representation.toInvariants; this file adds the Hopf-ideal and comodule interface around it rather than repeating the normal-subgroup conjugation argument.

    Membership in the base-point-fixed submodule means being fixed by every base-valued point cut out by the Hopf ideal.

    A vector fixed by the quotient coaction is fixed by every base-valued point of the closed subgroup cut out by I. This direction requires no point-separation hypotheses.

    Over an algebraically closed field, if the quotient coordinate ring is reduced and of finite type, base-point-fixed vectors are exactly the vectors fixed by the restricted coaction of the closed subgroup scheme.

    Scheme-theoretic invariants of a normal closed subgroup form an ambient subrepresentation. Only the ambient group is required to be reduced; the subgroup can be nonreduced.

      Normal-subgroup invariants are the weight space of the trivial character.

      @[simp]

      An ambient vector belongs to the normal-subgroup invariant representation precisely when its coaction restricts to the trivial coaction on the subgroup.

      Every algebra-valued subgroup point fixes the scalar extension of an invariant vector.

      Every ambient base-valued point sends a base-point-fixed vector to another base-point-fixed vector.

        The scalar extension of the base-point-fixed submodule is stable under every ambient point endomorphism.

        Scalar-extension form of the stability of normal-subgroup fixed vectors. This is the shape needed by geometric point-separation criteria for promoting a submodule to a subcomodule.
