Let $G\to \mathbb A^n_{\mathbb C}$ be a smooth morphism whose fibers at any point of $\mathbb A^n$ are unipotent groups. Can we conclude that $G\simeq \mathbb A^{n+N}_{\mathbb C}$ for some $N$, as a ...

Can someone explain, explicitly, how to, given a reductive complex algebraic group construct the Langlands dual group? I know it is a group with the cocharacters of G as its characters, but how does ...
