Base change of affine group schemes #

Pullback along Spec S ⟶ Spec R carries an affine group scheme over Spec R to an affine group scheme over Spec S. This file bundles that construction on objects and morphisms as TauCeti.AffineGroupSchemeCat.baseChangeFunctor, and records comparison isomorphisms for base change along the identity ring map and along a composite ring map. The mutual coherence conditions of those two comparisons — the unit and associativity constraints that would make R ↦ AffineGroupSchemeCat R a pseudofunctor — are not proved here.

The group structure is transported by Mathlib's left-exact pullback functor on Over categories. Affineness is preserved because the base Spec R is itself affine: a fibre product of affine schemes over an affine base is again affine, so the fibre product of G with Spec S over Spec R is affine. (Over a general base scheme this argument is unavailable, and a fibre product of affine schemes need not be affine.) Thus the construction applies over general commutative rings; no field or finite-type hypothesis is needed.

Main declarations #

The comparison with base change of coordinate Hopf algebras is developed in TauCeti.AlgebraicGeometry.AffineGroupScheme.BaseChange.Coordinate.

References #

The coordinate-algebra counterpart of this construction, base change of commutative Hopf algebras, is TauCeti.CommHopfAlgCat.baseChangeFunctor; the two sides are related by the anti-equivalence TauCeti.commHopfAlgCatOpEquivAffineGroupSchemeCat. hopfSpecBaseChangeIso identifies their values on each Hopf algebra. Their natural compatibility is developed in TauCeti.AlgebraicGeometry.AffineGroupScheme.BaseChange.Coordinate as TauCeti.AffineGroupSchemeCat.hopfSpecBaseChangeNatIso.

Roadmap #

This supplies the scheme-side base-change operation required by Layer 9 of the ReductiveGroups roadmap. The CFSGStatement roadmap's milestone L0 uses it to evaluate a pinned Chevalley--Demazure group scheme over ℤ after extension to an algebraic closure of a finite prime field.

@[reducible, inline]

Base change of an affine group scheme along a morphism f : R ⟶ S of commutative rings.

Its underlying scheme is the fibre product with Spec S over Spec R, and its group-object structure is the one transported by pullback.

    The underlying group object of a base-changed affine group scheme is obtained by applying pullback to the original group object.

    The underlying object over Spec S of a base-changed affine group scheme is the pullback of the original object over Spec R.

    The underlying scheme of a base-changed affine group scheme is the corresponding fibre product.

            The morphism of objects over Spec T underlying (baseChangeFunctorCompIso f g).inv.

            Pulling the Hopf spectrum of H from Spec R to Spec S gives the Hopf spectrum of the scalar extension S ⊗[R] H, as group objects over Spec S.

            The underlying scheme isomorphism first exchanges the two legs of the pullback and then applies the affine comparison pullbackSpecIso'. Mathlib proves that this map preserves the unit and multiplication of the Hopf spectra.
