The points action of a comodule #
A right comodule V over a bialgebra H makes the A-points of H — those of the
corresponding affine monoid scheme, when H is commutative — act on the scalar
extension A ⊗[R] V: a point g : H →ₐ[R] A acts by
pushing the coaction coefficients through g, A-linearly. The two comodule axioms
are exactly the two monoid-action laws: the counit law sends the convolution unit to
the identity, and coassociativity sends convolution products to composites. (The
upgrade to automorphisms over a Hopf algebra is in
TauCeti.Algebra.AlgebraicGroup.Representation.PointsAction, with the group of
points.) On the comodule attached to a group-like element x, this action is scalar
multiplication by g x.
This is the comodule-to-representation direction of the "representations = comodules"
dictionary (ReductiveGroups roadmap, Layer 1): it realizes a comodule as an action of
the functor of points on scalar extensions of V.

The endomorphism of the scalar extension A ⊗[R] V attached to an A-point:
push the coaction coefficients through the point. Only the coalgebra structure of H
enters; the bialgebra compatibility is needed for the action laws, not the map.

Base-change compatibility of the action: pushing a point forward along a morphism
of value algebras and acting agrees with acting first and then extending scalars.
Stated on the underlying R-linear maps, where both composites live.
Scalar extension of a comodule morphism intertwines the point actions: the action is functorial in the comodule.
An injective comodule morphism preserves and reflects the stabilizer of a subspace after flat scalar extension. Thus a subspace has the same stabilizer in a subrepresentation and in the ambient representation.
Acting on a comodule corestricted along a bialgebra morphism agrees with acting by the point precomposed with the underlying algebra morphism.
On a group-like comodule, a point acts by scalar multiplication by its value on the group-like element.
On pure tensors, acting separately on two comodules and applying the scalar-extension tensor comparison agrees with acting on any tensor-product comodule whose coaction is the diagonal one.
A point action preserves tensor products. Under the canonical comparison
(A ⊗ M) ⊗[A] (A ⊗ N) ≃ A ⊗ (M ⊗ N), acting on the two factors separately
equals acting on any tensor-product comodule whose coaction is the diagonal one.
On pure tensors, acting separately on two comodules and applying the scalar-extension tensor comparison agrees with acting on their diagonal tensor-product comodule.
A point action preserves the diagonal tensor product of two comodules.
The convolution unit acts as the identity: the counit law of the comodule.
Convolution products act as composites: the coassociativity law of the comodule.
If two points whose convolution product is one both preserve a submodule, the first point carries that submodule onto itself.
