Kernels of group schemes #
This file constructs the scheme-theoretic kernel of an arbitrary homomorphism of group schemes
over an arbitrary base. It is the categorical kernel in Grp (Over S), equivalently the fibre of
the homomorphism over the identity section. No affineness, finiteness, or flatness hypothesis is
imposed.
Formation of this kernel commutes with arbitrary base change. Categorically, this follows because
pullback of schemes over a base preserves limits, limits of group objects are created by the
forgetful functor, and that functor reflects limits. The comparison isomorphism is Mathlib's
canonical PreservesKernel.iso; its compatibility with inclusions and maps between kernels is
recorded explicitly for downstream use.
Main declarations #
TauCeti.GroupScheme.isPullback_kernel: a group-scheme kernel is the fibre over the identity.TauCeti.GroupScheme.isPullback_kernel_scheme: the corresponding square of underlying schemes is a pullback.TauCeti.GroupScheme.kernelBaseChangeIso: the canonical isomorphism from the base change of a kernel to the kernel of the base-changed homomorphism.TauCeti.GroupScheme.kernelMap_comp_kernelBaseChangeIso_inv: naturality of the comparison isomorphism with respect to commutative squares.
The categorical kernel and comparison constructions are provided by

Pullback of group schemes along an arbitrary base morphism preserves parallel-pair limits. In particular, it preserves kernels.
The canonical isomorphism from the base change of a scheme-theoretic kernel to the kernel of the base-changed homomorphism.

The categorical kernel of a group-scheme homomorphism is its fibre over the identity section. The horizontal maps are the kernel inclusion and the identity section; the other map from the kernel is the unique morphism to the trivial group scheme.
On underlying schemes, the scheme-theoretic kernel is the fibre of the homomorphism over its identity section.
The underlying-scheme isomorphism from the base change of a scheme-theoretic kernel to the kernel of the base-changed homomorphism.
