Coordinate criterion for central kernels #
A morphism f : H ⟶ K of commutative Hopf algebras induces contravariantly a morphism
Spec K ⟶ Spec H of affine group schemes. This file identifies the two existing notions of a
central kernel for that morphism:
GroupScheme.HasCentralKerneltests the kernel on points valued in every scheme over the base;HopfIdeal.IsCentralsays that the represented kernel Hopf ideal is central.
The bridge must account for nonaffine test schemes in HasCentralKernel. It uses the relative
Γ-Spec multiplicative equivalence from CommHopfAlgCat.SchemePoints, so the group law on all
scheme-valued points is convolution on global sections. Naturality in H then identifies the
kernel of the scheme-valued point map with the points cut out by kernelHopfIdeal f.
Main declarations #
TauCeti.GroupScheme.hasCentralKernel_hopfSpec_map_iff: the induced affine group-scheme morphism has central kernel exactly when its kernel Hopf ideal is central.TauCeti.GroupScheme.isCentralIsogeny_hopfSpec_map_iff: the resulting coordinate criterion for a central isogeny.

The relative global-sections comparison uses Mathlib's algΓAlgSpecAdjunction and
AlgebraicGeometry.Spec.mapMulEquiv. This synchronizes the Hopf-algebra and group-scheme
formulations of central isogenies required in Layer 6 of the ReductiveGroups roadmap.
If the represented kernel Hopf ideal is central, then the induced affine group-scheme morphism has central kernel on points valued in every scheme over the base.
If the induced affine group-scheme morphism has central kernel on all scheme-valued points, then its represented kernel Hopf ideal is central.
Coordinate criterion for a central kernel. The affine group-scheme morphism induced by
f : H ⟶ K has central kernel exactly when its represented kernel Hopf ideal is central.
Coordinate criterion for a central isogeny. A Hopf-spectrum morphism is a central isogeny exactly when it is an isogeny and its represented kernel Hopf ideal is central.
