Hopf algebra morphisms #
This file records Hopf-algebra API needed for the affine-group-scheme dictionary in the
reductive-groups roadmap. Mathlib defines morphisms in HopfAlgCat R to be bialgebra
morphisms; the missing algebraic fact is that such a morphism automatically preserves the
antipode. We prove that here by the usual convolution-inverse uniqueness argument.
Main results #
BialgHom.toLinearMap_comp_antipodeandBialgHom.map_antipode: a bialgebra morphism between Hopf algebras commutes with the antipodes (the convolution-inverse identities themselves are Mathlib'sLinearMap.antipode_mul_idandLinearMap.id_mul_antipode, and the pure-tensor antipode formula is Mathlib's simp lemmaTensorProduct.antipode_def).

This supplies a formal prerequisite for the Tau Ceti reductive-groups roadmap, Layer 0,
"the functor of points and the three-way dictionary": morphisms in the Hopf-algebra model
must respect the inverse map in the affine group-scheme model. The proof uses Mathlib's
convolution product on linear maps, due to Yaël Dillies, Michał Mrugała and Yunzhou Xie.
The pure-tensor antipode formula is Mathlib's TensorProduct.antipode_def in
