We introduce two kinds of gauge invariants for any finite-dimensional Hopf algebra H. When H is semisimple over C, these invariants are respectively, the trace of the map induced by the antipode on the endomorphism ring of a self-dual…
Let $k$ be a field and let $H$ denote a pointed Hopf $k$-algebra with antipode $S$. We are interested in determining the order of $S$. Building on the work done by Taft and Wilson $[7]$, we define an invariant for $H$, denoted $m_{H}$, and…
We extend to the co-Frobenius case a result of Drinfeld and Radford related to the fourth power of the antipode of a finite dimensional (co)quasitriangular Hopf algebra.
In this paper, we study the antipode of a finite-dimensional Hopf algebra $H$ with the dual Chevalley property and obtain an annihilation polynomial for its antipode $S$. The annihilation polynomial is determined by the exponent $N$ of the…
There are two notions of exponent of finite-dimensional Hopf algebras introduced and studied in the literature. In this note, we discuss and compare their properties including invariance and finiteness in this note. Specifically, one notion…
In this paper we introduce a trace-like invariant for the irreducible representations of a finite dimensional complex Hopf algebra H. We do so by considering the trace of the map induced by the antipode S on the endomorphisms End(V) of a…
If H is a connected, graded Hopf algebra, then Takeuchi's formula can be used to compute its antipode. However, there is usually massive cancellation in the result. We show how sign-reversing involutions can sometimes be used to obtain…
We extend Schaumann's theory of pivotal structures on fusion categories matched to a module category and of module traces developed in arXiv:1206.5716 to the case of non-semisimple tensor categories, and use it to study eigenvalues of the…
We study a Hopf algebra $H$, which is finitely generated and projective over a commutative ring $k$, as a $P$-Frobenius algebra. We define modular functions in this setting, and provide a complete proof of Radford's formula for the fourth…
The permutation pattern Hopf algebra is a commutative filtered and connected Hopf algebra. Its product structure stems from counting patterns of a permutation, interpreting the coefficients as permutation quasi-shuffles. The Hopf algebra…
Recall (math.QA/9812151) that the exponent of a finite-dimensional complex Hopf algebra H is the order of the Drinfeld element u of the Drinfeld double D(H) of H. Recall also that while this order may be infinite, the eigenvalues of u are…
Let H be a Hopf algebra in a rigid braided monoidal category with split idempotents. We prove the existence of integrals on (in) H characterized by the universal property, employing results about Hopf modules, and show that their common…
One of the classical notions of group theory is the notion of the exponent of a group. The exponent of a group is the least common multiple of orders of its elements. In this paper we generalize the notion of exponent to Hopf algebras. We…
We introduce new polynomial invariants of a finite-dimensional semisimple and cosemisimple Hopf algebra A over a field by using the braiding structures of A. We investigate basic properties of the polynomial invariants including stability…
In 1997 we proved that any triangular semisimple Hopf algebra over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic 0 is obtained from the group algebra k[G] of a finite group G, by twisting its comultiplication by a twist in the sense of…
We study the relationship between antipodes on a Hopf algebroid $\mathcal{H}$ in the sense of B\"ohm-Szlachanyi and the group of twists that lies inside the associated convolution algebra. We specialize to the case of a faithfully flat…
Let A be a cogroup in the category of connected graded algebras over a commutative ring R. Let nu denote the inverse of A and chi the antipode of the underlying Hopf algebra of A. We clarify the differences and similarities of nu and chi,…
We study Hopf algebras via tools from geometric invariant theory. We show that all the invariants we get can be constructed using the integrals of the Hopf algebra and its dual together with the multiplication and the comultiplication, and…
We provide a very short approach to several fundamental results for Hopf algebras with nonzero integrals. Besides being short, our approach is the first to prove the bijectivity of the antipode without using the uniqueness of the integrals…
Kashina, Montgomery and Ng introduced the $n$-th indicator $\nu_n(H)$ of a finite-dimensional Hopf algebra $H$ and showed that the indicators have some interesting properties such as the gauge invariance. The aim of this paper is to…
