Solvability and termination of the derived series #

For an affine group with schematically dense rational points, the scheme-theoretic and abstract derived series reach the identity at the same index. Thus the scheme-theoretic series terminates exactly when the rational-point group is solvable. This applies in particular to reduced finite-type affine groups over algebraically closed fields.

With schematically dense rational points, scheme-theoretic and abstract derived series reach the identity at the same index.

With schematically dense rational points, rational-point solvability is equivalent to termination of the scheme-theoretic derived series.

Scheme-theoretic and abstract derived series reach the identity at the same index.

A reduced finite-type affine group over an algebraically closed field has solvable rational points exactly when its scheme-theoretic derived series reaches the identity.

Over an algebraically closed field, the geometric-points solvability property of a reduced finite-type affine group is equivalent to termination of its derived series.
