Semisimple points of a Hopf algebra #
Let H be a Hopf algebra over a commutative semiring k and let K be a field equipped with a
k-algebra structure. A K-valued point g : WithConv (H →ₐ[k] K) acts on the scalar extension
of every finitely generated H-comodule. This file calls g semisimple when every one of those
linear automorphisms is semisimple. The WithConv wrapper supplies the convolution group
structure from the antipode of H; all group operations in the closure API below refer to that
convolution law.
For the commutative coordinate Hopf algebra of an affine group scheme, taking K to be an
algebraic closure of k gives the representation-theoretic definition of a geometric semisimple
element. Semisimple points contain the identity and are closed under inverses and integer powers.
Products of commuting semisimple points are semisimple over a perfect field, and semisimplicity is
invariant under conjugation.

This supplies the intrinsic semisimple-element predicate needed by Layer 4, "Jordan decomposition", of the ReductiveGroups roadmap. It uses the representation--comodule dictionary built in Layer 1.
A point g : WithConv (H →ₐ[k] K) of a Hopf algebra is semisimple when it acts by a
semisimple linear automorphism on the scalar extension of every finitely generated comodule. The
point type carries the convolution group structure supplied by the antipode of H, and the closure
properties below use this group law.
When H is the commutative coordinate Hopf algebra of an affine group over k and K is an
algebraic closure, this is the standard representation-theoretic definition of a geometric
semisimple element.
