Comodules with a group-like basis #
A basis b of a module M together with a family c of group-like elements of a coalgebra C
determines a right C-comodule structure on M, namely the linear extension of
b x ↦ b x ⊗ c x.
The comodule axioms hold entry by entry: coassociativity is Δ(c x) = c x ⊗ c x and the counit
law is ε(c x) = 1, which is exactly what group-likeness says. Its coefficient matrix in the
basis b is the diagonal matrix of the c x.
When C = R[G] is the coordinate Hopf algebra of a diagonalizable group D(G) and
c x = single (wt x) 1 for a weight function wt, this is the representation of D(G) acting on
the x-th basis vector through the character wt x; the basis vectors then lie in the weight
submodules of TauCeti.Algebra.Coalgebra.Comodule.MonoidAlgebra.Basic. This construction is
complementary to the weight decomposition proved there: that file splits a comodule into weight
spaces, while this one builds a comodule from a basis equipped with a prescribed weight function.

The comodule attached to a group-like basis #
The right C-comodule structure on a free module which sends each basis vector b x to
b x ⊗ c x, for a prescribed family c of group-like elements of C.
Group-likeness of c x is exactly the pair of comodule axioms evaluated at b x.

Weights over a group algebra #
The right R[G]-comodule structure on a free module determined by a weight function on a

This is the representation of the diagonalizable group D(G) which is diagonal in the basis b
with the prescribed weights.

The coaction of ofWeights on a basis vector.
This is not a simp lemma: ofWeights unfolds to ofGroupLike, whose corresponding lemma is
the simp normal form.
The x-th basis vector of ofWeights has weight wt x.
In a basis with pairwise distinct weights, projection to the weight of a basis vector extracts exactly that basis coordinate.
The coefficient matrix of ofWeights is the diagonal matrix of the characters.
