The closed group scheme generated by a Kostant torus and root subgroups #
Fix a finite free Kostant-stable lattice with a basis, and prescribe an integer weight for each
basis vector. Distinguished nilpotent vectors give represented root-subgroup morphisms
xᵢ : 𝔾ₐ → GLₙ, while the chosen weights give a represented split-torus morphism
T → GLₙ. This file constructs the smallest closed subgroup scheme of GLₙ containing both
families.
On coordinate Hopf algebras, the defining ideal is the largest Hopf ideal killed by every root subgroup coordinate map and by the weight-torus coordinate map. Quotienting by that ideal gives an explicit affine group scheme, and both the root subgroups and the torus factor through it. The previously constructed root-generated group scheme is a closed subgroup scheme of this toral closure.
For arbitrary vectors and weights, no maximality of the torus and no reductivity or Borel structure is asserted. When the inputs come from a Chevalley system and an admissible weight lattice, this is the carrier assembled from the torus and root subgroups in the Chevalley--Demazure construction. The remaining pinning work must identify the appropriate Borel and prove the root-datum properties.

The defining Hopf ideal of the closed subgroup scheme generated jointly by the represented Kostant root subgroups and the represented weight torus. It is the largest Hopf ideal killed by all of those coordinate maps.
Equations

Instances For
A Hopf ideal lies in the toral defining ideal exactly when every root-subgroup coordinate map and the weight-torus coordinate map kill it.
A surjective endomorphism of the ambient coordinate Hopf algebra which reindexes the root-subgroup coordinate maps and carries the weight-torus coordinate map to itself up to an injective postcomposition pulls the toral defining ideal into itself.
The conclusion is one containment, not invariance: an automorphism fixing the ideal needs this lemma once for itself and once for its inverse.
Every represented root-subgroup coordinate map kills the toral defining ideal.
The represented weight-torus coordinate map kills the toral defining ideal.
Adding the weight torus to the generators can only shrink the defining ideal. Equivalently, the root-generated group scheme is a closed subgroup scheme of the toral closure.
