Bivariant Hopf Cyclic Cohomology

For module algebras and module coalgebras over an arbitrary bialgebra, we define two types of bivariant cyclic cohomology groups called bivariant Hopf cyclic cohomology and bivariant equivariant cyclic cohomology. These groups are defined through an extension of Connes' cyclic category Λ. We show that, in the case of module coalgebras, bivariant Hopf cyclic cohomology specializes to Hopf cyclic cohomology of Connes and Moscovici and its dual version by fixing either one of the variables as the ground field. We also prove an appropriate version of Morita invariance for both of these theories.     

Hopf cyclic cohomology and transverse characteristic classes

We refine the cyclic cohomological apparatus for computing the Hopf cyclic cohomology of the Hopf algebras associated to infinite primitive Cartan–Lie pseudogroups, and for the transfer of their characteristic classes to foliations. The main novel feature is the precise identification as a Hopf cyclic complex of the image of the canonical homomorphism from the Gelfand–Fuks complex to the Bott complex for equivariant cohomology. This provides a convenient new model for the Hopf cyclic cohomology of the geometric Hopf algebras, which allows for an efficient transport of the Hopf cyclic classes via characteristic homomorphisms. We illustrate the latter aspect by indicating how to realize the universal Hopf cyclic Chern classes in terms of explicit cocycles in the cyclic cohomology of étale foliation groupoids.     

Centrally closed hopf module algebras

We introduce a concept of centrally closed Hopf module algebras and show that centrally closed Hopf module algebras inherit all basic properties of centrally closed algebras.     

Cyclic cohomology of Hopf algebras of transverse symmetries in codimension 1

We develop intrinsic tools for computing the periodic Hopf cyclic cohomology of Hopf algebras related to transverse symmetry in codimension 1. Besides the Hopf algebra found by Connes and the first author in their work on the local index formula for transversely hypoelliptic operators on foliations, this family includes its ‘Schwarzian’ quotient, on which the Rankin-Cohen universal deformation formula is based, the extended Connes-Kreimer Hopf algebra related to renormalization of divergences in QFT, as well as a series of cyclic coverings of these Hopf algebras, motivated by the treatment of transverse symmetry for non-orientable foliations.The method for calculating their Hopf cyclic cohomology is based on two computational devices, which work in tandem and complement each other: one is a spectral sequence for bicrossed product Hopf algebras and the other a Cartan-type homotopy formula in Hopf cyclic cohomology.     

Formal Hopf algebra theory I: Hopf modules for pseudomonoids

In this article we develop some of the basic constructions of the theory of Hopf algebras in the context of autonomous pseudomonoids in monoidal bicategories. We concentrate on the notion of Hopf modules. We study the existence and the internalisation of this notion, called the Hopf module construction. Our main result is the equivalence between the existence of a left dualization for A (i.e., A is left autonomous) and the validity of an analogue of the structure theorem of Hopf modules. In this case a Hopf module construction for A always exists. We recover from the general theory developed here results on coquasi-Hopf algebras.     

Construction of Rota-Baxter algebras via Hopf module algebras

We propose the notion of Hopf module algebra and show that the projection onto the subspace of coinvariants is an idempotent Rota-Baxter operator of weight-1. We also provide a construction of Hopf module algebras by using Yetter-Drinfeld module algebras. As an application,we prove that the positive part of a quantum group admits idempotent Rota-Baxter algebra structures.     

A NOTE ON CYCLIC DUALITY AND HOPF ALGEBRAS

ABSTRACT

We show that various cyclic and cocyclic modules attached to Hopf algebras and Hopf modules are related to each other via Connes’ duality isomorphism for the cyclic category.     

A Trace-Like Invariant for Representations of Hopf Algebras

We introduce an invariant for the irreducible representations of finite dimensional Hopf algebras, defined as the trace of a map induced by the antipode on the endomorphisms of each corresponding simple module. We also compute the value of this invariant for the representations of two families of non-semisimple Hopf algebras.     

Hopf Algebra Extensions of Group Algebras and Tambara-Yamagami Categories

We determine the structure of Hopf algebras that admit an extension of a group algebra by the cyclic group of order 2. We study the corepresentation theory of such Hopf algebras, which provide a generalization, at the Hopf algebra level, of the so called Tambara-Yamagami fusion categories. As a byproduct, we show that every semisimple Hopf algebra of dimension < 36 is necessarily group-theoretical; thus 36 is the smallest possible dimension where a non group-theoretical example occurs.     

Monoidal Morita invariants for finite group algebras

Two Hopf algebras are called monoidally Morita equivalent if module categories over them are equivalent as linear monoidal categories. We introduce monoidal Morita invariants for finite-dimensional Hopf algebras based on certain braid group representations arising from the Drinfeld double construction. As an application, we show, for any integer n, the number of elements of order n is a monoidal Morita invariant for finite group algebras. We also describe relations between our construction and invariants of closed 3-manifolds due to Reshetikhin and Turaev.

Basic quasi-Hopf algebras over cyclic groups

Let m be a positive integer, not divisible by 2, 3, 5, 7. We generalize the classification of basic quasi-Hopf algebras over cyclic groups of prime order given in Etingof and Gelaki (2006) [11] to the case of cyclic groups of order m. To this end, we introduce a family of non-semisimple radically graded quasi-Hopf algebras A(H,s), constructed as subalgebras of Hopf algebras twisted by a quasi-Hopf twist, which are not twist equivalent to Hopf algebras. Any basic quasi-Hopf algebra over a cyclic group of order m is either semisimple, or is twist equivalent to a Hopf algebra or a quasi-Hopf algebra of type A(H,s).     

On Isotypic Decompositions for Non-Semisimple Hopf Algebras

In this paper we study the isotypic decomposition of the regular module of a finite-dimensional Hopf algebra over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. For a semisimple Hopf algebra, the idempotents realizing the isotypic decomposition can be explicitly expressed in terms of characters and the Haar integral. In this paper we investigate Hopf algebras with the Chevalley property, which are not necessarily semisimple. We find explicit expressions for idempotents in terms of Hopf-algebraic data, where the Haar integral is replaced by the regular character of the dual Hopf algebra. For a large class of Hopf algebras, these are shown to form a complete set of orthogonal idempotents. We give an example which illustrates that the Chevalley property is crucial.

     

On the Hopf–Schur group of a field

Let k be any field. We consider the Hopf–Schur group of k, defined as the subgroup of the Brauer group of k consisting of classes that may be represented by homomorphic images of finite-dimensional Hopf algebras over k. We show here that twisted group algebras and abelian extensions of k are quotients of cocommutative and commutative finite-dimensional Hopf algebras over k, respectively. As a consequence we prove that any tensor product of cyclic algebras over k is a quotient of a finite-dimensional Hopf algebra over k, revealing so that the Hopf–Schur group can be much larger than the Schur group of k.     

Invariant Cyclic Homology

We define a noncommutative analogue of invariant de Rham cohomology. More precisely, for a triple (A, H, M) consisting of a Hopf algebra H, an H-comodule algebra A, an H-module M, and a compatible grouplike element in H, we define the cyclic module of invariant chains on A with coefficients in M and call its cyclic homology the invariant cyclic homology of A with coefficients in M. We also develop a dual theory for coalgebras. Examples include cyclic cohomology of Hopf algebras defined by Connes–Moscovici and its dual theory. We establish various results and computations including one for the quantum group SL(q,2).     

Cyclic Homology of Hopf Algebras

A cyclic cohomology theory adapted to Hopf algebras has been introduced recently by Connes and Moscovici. In this paper, we consider this object in the homological framework, in the spirit of Loday and Quillen and Karoubi's work on the cyclic homology of associative algebras. In the case of group algebras, we interpret the decomposition of the classical cyclic homology of a group algebra in terms of this homology. We also compute both cyclic homologies for truncated quiver algebras.     

Cyclic homology of monogenic extensions in the noncommutative setting

We study the Hochschild and cyclic homology of noncommutative monogenic extensions. As an application we compute the Hochschild and cyclic homology of the rank 1 Hopf algebras introduced in [L. Krop, D. Radford, Finite dimensional Hopf algebras of rank 1 in characteristic 0, Journal of Algebra 302 (1) (2006) 214–230].

Examples of support varieties for Hopf algebras with noncommutative tensor products

The representations of some Hopf algebras have curious behavior: Nonprojective modules may have projective tensor powers, and the variety of a tensor product of modules may not be contained in the intersection of their varieties. We explain a family of examples of such Hopf algebras and their modules, and classify left, right, and two-sided ideals in their stable module categories.     

Projections of weak braided Hopf algebras

In this paper we study the projections of weak braided Hopf algebras using the notion of Yetter-Drinfeld module associated with a weak braided Hopf algebra. As a consequence, we complete the study ofthe structure of weak Hopf algebras with a projection in a braiding setting obtaining a categorical equivalencebetween the category of weak Hopf algebra projections associated with a weak Hopf algebra H living in abraided monoidal category and the category of Hopf algebras in the non-strict braided monoidal cate...
