Naturality of the tangent and adjoint actions in the coefficient algebra #
For a bialgebra A over R, the tangent space is naturally a functor of the
coefficient algebra:
B ↦ Derivation R A (Bialgebra.CounitAlgebra R A B).
An R-algebra homomorphism φ : B →ₐ[R] C postcomposes a counit-valued
derivation. The underlying maps of counit algebras are defined in Tangent.Basic;
this file packages postcomposition as Derivation.mapValue, proves its
functoriality, and, when A is a Hopf algebra, shows that it intertwines the adjoint
actions at B and C.
Together, these statements make the valuewise representations in
Tangent.Adjoint into a natural action on the Lie functor.

Instances For
Postcomposition of a counit-valued derivation acts pointwise.
On underlying linear maps, change of coefficients is postcomposition by the coefficient algebra map.
Postcomposition by the identity is the identity on counit-valued derivations.
Postcomposition of counit-valued derivations preserves composition.
The adjoint action is natural in the coefficient algebra. Mapping a point and
a tangent vector along phi and then applying the adjoint action gives the same
result as applying the action first and postcomposing the resulting derivation.
