| Abstract: | Let B and H be weak Hopf algebras with bijective antipodes S B and S H , respectively. Based on a compatible weak Hopf dual pairing (B, H, σ), we construct a generalized Drinfeld quantum double 𝔻(B, H) which is a weak T-coalgebra over a twisted semi-direct square of groups. In particular, when B and H are finite dimensional and the above pairing map σ is nondegenerate, 𝔻(B, H) admits a nontrivial quasitriangular structure. Some explicit examples are given as an application of our theory. |
