The coefficient subcoalgebra of a finite free comodule #
Expanding the comultiplication of a matrix coefficient in a finite basis (eᵢ) gives
Δ(c(φ, m)) = ∑ i, c(φ, eᵢ) ⊗ c(eⁱ, m).
Consequently, over a commutative semiring, the matrix-coefficient submodule of a finite free comodule is finite and stable under comultiplication, and hence defines a finite subcoalgebra.
