The roots-of-unity group scheme #

For a commutative ring R and a natural number n, the roots-of-unity group scheme is the diagonalizable group

mu_n = D(ULift (Multiplicative (ZMod n))).

The universe lift places the character group in the universe of R, as required by the current scheme-level diagonalizable-group API. This file synchronizes that presentation with the existing group-algebra and functor-of-points presentations:

All statements include n = 0, n = 1, and the zero base and value rings. The classical quotient presentation by T ^ n - 1 and the realization as the kernel of the power map are separate constructions.

This advances Layer 4 and the worked-examples lane of the reductive-groups roadmap by keeping the Hopf-algebra, group-scheme, and functor-of-points descriptions of mu_n synchronized.

The cyclic character group Multiplicative (ZMod n) is finitely generated for every n, including n = 0, as a quotient of Multiplicative Z.

    The roots-of-unity group scheme mu_n = D(ULift (Multiplicative (ZMod n))) over Spec R.

    Instances For

      Scheme-valued points of mu_n over Spec R are the nth roots of unity in the value algebra.

      The corresponding root of unity is obtained by evaluating the character at the lifted standard generator of Multiplicative (ZMod n).

        A scheme-valued point of mu_n, viewed as a root of unity, is obtained by evaluating its coordinate-algebra point on the lifted standard generator.

        The scheme point associated to a root of unity evaluates the lifted standard generator at that root.

        @[simp]

        The scheme point associated to a root of unity evaluates scalar multiples of the lifted standard generator by scalar multiplication of that root.

        The closed inclusion into the multiplicative group scheme #

        The quotient Multiplicative Z -> Multiplicative (ZMod n), transported between the same-universe character groups defining G_m and mu_n.

        This lifted lattice map is public so later scheme-kernel constructions can reuse the exact coordinate map without reconstructing universe transports from the scheme morphism.

          The lifted character quotient sends the lift of an integer character to the lift of its residue class.

          The lifted character quotient defining mu_n -> G_m is surjective for every n.

          The group-scheme morphism mu_n -> G_m induced contravariantly by the lifted quotient of character groups.
