Central isogenies and isomorphisms #
An isogeny with monic underlying scheme morphism is an isomorphism. Central isogenies are also
unchanged by replacing their source or target by an isomorphic group scheme. This file proves the
corresponding MorphismProperty.RespectsIso instance and records the underlying fact that the
all-test-schemes central-kernel condition is invariant under pre- and postcomposition with an
isomorphism.
The proofs stay at the functor-of-points level used by GroupScheme.HasCentralKernel. A morphism
monic in Over X induces an injective map on points over every test scheme. On the source this
reflects commutativity, while on the target it shows that postcomposition does not change the
pointwise kernel.
