On the Drinfeld double of a finite group scheme and its representation category
Abstract
We classify equivalence classes of Hopf algebra quotient pairs of the Drinfeld double of a finite group scheme over an algebraically closed field of characteristic , in terms of group scheme-theoretical data. We prove that such Hopf algebra quotients are Hopf algebra extensions , where and are normal subgroup schemes of that centralize each other and is a -equivariant Hopf algebra map, and describe the surjective Hopf algebra map . Using this classification, we determine the tensor subcategories of the center of , describe their centralizers, determine when they are symmetric or non-degenerate, and give a description of their simple and projective objects using \cite{GS}. Our categorical results generalize those found in \cite{NNW} in characteristic .
