Unipotent radicals and quotient images #

This file supplies the common reduction used to identify a unipotent radical with the kernel of a quotient homomorphism. Once the image of the radical in the target is trivial, maximality gives one ideal containment and triviality gives the other.

Main declaration #

This reduction supports identifying kernels of quotient homomorphisms with unipotent radicals.

A unipotent-radical candidate kernel is the unipotent radical if the image of the radical in the target is trivial. The image is represented by the kernel of the composite coordinate map.
