Base change of the group scheme generated by Kostant root subgroups #
The Chevalley carrier G generated by the represented Kostant root subgroups is a closed subgroup
scheme of GLₙ over ℤ, presented as the quotient of the general-linear coordinate Hopf algebra
by the Hopf ideal J common to the kernels of all root-subgroup coordinate maps. This file
transports that presentation along ℤ → A for an arbitrary commutative ring A.
The base change G_A is cut out inside the base change of the ambient general-linear coordinate
algebra by the base-changed Hopf ideal J_A, and the base change of each root subgroup still
factors through it, with the same factorization the construction over ℤ provides. That is the
compatibility of the root-subgroup coordinate maps with base change: their factorizations do not
have to be rechosen over A.
Generation, on the other hand, only transports in one direction: the carrier generated over A by
the base-changed root subgroups is a closed subgroup scheme of G_A
(kostantGeneratedBaseChangeIdeal_le_commonKernelHopfIdeal), and equality is not claimed, since a
Hopf ideal of A ⊗[ℤ] O(GLₙ) killed by every base-changed root-subgroup map need not descend.
The second half of the file removes the tensor factor from the ambient group. Transporting the
presentation along A ⊗[ℤ] O(GLₙ) ≅ O(GLₙ over A) exhibits G_A as a closed subgroup scheme of
GLₙ over A itself, cut out by the Hopf ideal
kostantGeneratedGeneralLinearBaseChangeIdeal, and each
base-changed root subgroup becomes a morphism 𝔾ₐ → G_A of group schemes over A after the same
identification is made on the additive coordinate algebra. This is the form a consumer working in
a fixed characteristic asks for: it base-changes the Chevalley carrier to 𝔽_p or to an algebraic
closure and wants a subgroup scheme of the general linear group over that field, not of a scalar
extension of the general linear group over ℤ.

Equations

Instances For
The specialized base-changed defining ideal is the generic base change of the ideal defining
the Chevalley carrier over ℤ.
The base change of the Chevalley carrier is the quotient of the base-changed general-linear coordinate algebra by the base-changed defining ideal: base change of the group scheme and of its presentation as a closed subgroup scheme agree.
Equations

Instances For
The specialized identification of the base-changed carrier is compatible with the quotient
morphism presenting the carrier over ℤ.
The ith base-changed root-subgroup coordinate map, factored through the base change of the
Chevalley carrier: the base change of the factorization over ℤ, read through the presentation of
the base change.
Equations
- One or more equations did not get rendered due to their size.
Instances For
Quotienting by the base-changed defining ideal and then applying the base-changed factored
root subgroup recovers the base change of the ith root-subgroup coordinate map. This is the
compatibility of the root-subgroup data with base change.
Every base-changed root-subgroup coordinate map kills the base-changed defining ideal, so the base-changed root subgroups all land in the base change of the Chevalley carrier.
The Chevalley carrier generated over A by the base-changed root subgroups is a closed
subgroup scheme of the base change of the carrier generated over ℤ.
The reverse containment is not claimed: it asks a Hopf ideal of A ⊗[ℤ] O(GLₙ) killed by every
base-changed root-subgroup coordinate map to descend to ℤ.
The presentation inside the general linear group over the new base #
Base change of the ambient general linear group is GLₙ over the new base, so the presentation
above can be read there. The identification used is
TauCeti.GeneralLinear.coordinateHopfAlgebraBaseChangeIso on the ambient group and
TauCeti.AdditiveGroup.coordinateHopfAlgebraBaseChangeIso on the parameter group.
The Hopf ideal of the general-linear coordinate algebra over A which presents the base
change of the Chevalley carrier: the inverse image of the base-changed defining ideal under the
identification of O(GLₙ) over A with A ⊗[ℤ] O(GLₙ).

Instances For
Membership in the general-linear defining ideal over A is membership of the transported
element in the base-changed defining ideal.
The transported pure tensor of every scalar and defining equation over ℤ belongs to the
general-linear base-change ideal over A.
The Chevalley carrier presented inside GLₙ over A is the base change of the Chevalley
carrier over ℤ.

ℤ is compatible with the two quotient morphisms.

Instances For
Quotienting by the general-linear defining ideal over A and then applying the factored root
subgroup recovers the base-changed root subgroup itself. This is the compatibility of the
root-subgroup data with base change, stated over A throughout.
Every root subgroup over A kills the general-linear defining ideal over A, so all of them
land in the Chevalley carrier presented there.
The Chevalley carrier generated over A by the root subgroups over A is a closed subgroup
scheme of the base change of the carrier over ℤ, now inside GLₙ over A.
As over the base-changed ambient group, the reverse containment is not claimed.
