Let $G$ be a group scheme (for instance, over $k$ a field of characteristic 0). Let $e$ be its unit. I denote by $O_G$ the structural sheaf of $G$.

Let D$_e : O_{G,e} \to k$$D_e : O_{G,e} \to k$ a derivation.

I would like to get directly (ie, without any consideration about the cotangent bundle, or some canonical isomorphisms...) a derivation $D : O_G\to O_G$ that extends $D_e$, and which is compatible with the action of $G$. That is, I would like to get this derivation by the mean of the multiplication map : $m : G \times G \to G$, etc., etc.

I have guessed this question would not be difficult, and would only be a matter of technics, but I can't manage to do it.

A technical question about derivations of sheaves on group schemes

Let $G$ be a group scheme (for instance, over $k$ a field of characteristic 0). Let $e$ be its unit. I denote by $O_G$ the structural sheaf of $G$.

Let D$_e : O_{G,e} \to k$ a derivation.

I would like to get directly (ie, without any consideration about the cotangent bundle, or some canonical isomorphisms...) a derivation $D : O_G\to O_G$ that extends $D_e$, and which is compatible with the action of $G$.
