The adjoint representation on the base Lie algebra #
For a commutative Hopf algebra H over a commutative ring R, the adjoint action is initially
defined on the coefficient-dependent tangent modules
Derivation R H (Bialgebra.CounitAlgebra R H A).
When the augmentation cotangent space is finite projective, these tangent modules are scalar
extensions of the single R-module dual to the cotangent space. This file transports the
coefficient-natural adjoint action across that equivalence. The result is a point representation,
its corresponding comodule, and, after choosing a finite basis, the coordinate morphism
O(GL_n) ⟶ H opposite to Ad : Spec H ⟶ GL_n.

This is the fixed-module packaging of the adjoint representation requested in Layer 2 of the ReductiveGroups roadmap.
Scalar extension of tangent vectors commutes with a coefficient-algebra morphism even when the source and target algebras live in different universes.
Regard a point with values in A as one with values in the indexed copy of A carrying the
counit-induced H-algebra structure.
