Serre Theorem for involutory Hopf algebras

Rings and Algebras 2014-03-18 v2

Abstract

We call a monoidal category C{\mathcal C} a Serre category if for any CC, DCD \in {\mathcal C} such that C\otDC\ot D is semisimple, CC and DD are semisimple objects in C{\mathcal C}. Let HH be an involutory Hopf algebra, MM, NN two HH-(co)modules such that MNM \otimes N is (co)semisimple as a HH-(co)module. If NN (resp. MM) is a finitely generated projective kk-module with invertible Hattory-Stallings rank in kk then MM (resp. NN) is (co)semisimple as a HH-(co)module. In particular, the full subcategory of all finite dimensional modules, comodules or Yetter-Drinfel'd modules over HH the dimension of which is invertible in kk are Serre categories.
