For two families of Yetter-Drinfel'd Hopf algebras considered earlier by the authors, we determine which of them are isomorphic. We also determine which of their Radford biproducts are isomorphic.
This paper studies the duals of some finite dimensional pointed Hopf algebras, with abelian group of grouplikes, over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0, which are either Radford biproducts or else nontrivial liftings of a…
Classifying all Hopf algebras of a given finite dimension over the complex numbers is a challenging problem which remains open even for many small dimensions, not least because few general approaches to the problem are known. Some useful…
Inspired by the work of Radford, for $H$ an arbitrary quasi-Hopf algebra we describe all the Hopf algebras of dimension $2$ within the braided category of left Yetter-Drinfeld modules over $H$ and determine the biproduct quasi-Hopf algebras…
We construct Hopf bimodules and Yetter-Drinfeld modules of Hopf algebroids as a generalization of the theory for Hopf algebras. More precisely, we show that the categories of Hopf bimodules and Yetter-Drinfeld modules over a Hopf algebroid…
We study some problems related to lazy 2-cocycles, such as: extension of (lazy) 2-cocycles to a Drinfeld double and to a Radford biproduct, Yetter-Drinfeld data obtained from lazy 2-cocycles, lifting of projective representations afforded…
Let $q$ be a prime number, $k$ an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0, and $H$ a non-trivial semisimple Hopf algebra of dimension $2q^3$. This paper proves that $H$ can be constructed either from group algebras and their duals by…
Let $H$ be a Hopf algebra with bijective antipode over a field $k$ and suppose that $R{#}H$ is a bi-product. Then $R$ is a bialgebra in the Yetter--Drinfel'd category ${}_H^H{\mathcal YD}$. We describe the bialgebras $(R{#}H)^{op}$ and…
Let $p,q$ be prime numbers with $p^4<q$, and $k$ an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. We show that semisimple Hopf algebras of dimension $p^2q^2$ can be constructed either from group algebras and their duals by means of…
We prove a structure theorem for Yetter-Drinfel'd Hopf algebras over groups of prime order that are nontrivial, cocommutative, and cosemisimple: Under certain assumptions on the base field, these algebras can be decomposed into a tensor…
We apply a combinatorial formula of the first author and Rosso, for products in Hopf quiver algebras, to determine the structure of Nichols algebras. We illustrate this technique by explicitly constructing new examples of Nichols algebras…
We study certain subgroups of the full group of Hopf algebra automorphisms of a biproduct. In the process interesting subgroups of certain permutation groups come into play.
The general framework of bicrossproduct Hopf algebras given by Majid is extended to $Z_2$-graded bicrossproduct Hopf superalgebras. As examples of bicrossproduct Hopf superalgebras we provide the graded algebras of functions on undeformed…
In this work we study how to extend a partial action of a Hopf Algebra $A$ on an algebra $R$ to a partial action of a Hopf-Ore extension of $A$ on $R$. As consequence, we characterize all partial actions of rank one Hopf algebras (in…
Let $\Bbbk$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$. We study the general structures of $p^n$-dimensional Hopf algebras over $\Bbbk$ with $p^{n-1}$ group-like elements or a primitive element generating a…
If A is a bialgebra over a field k and M, N are either left-right Yetter-Drinfel'd modules or left-right Hopf modules over A, we construct deformation cohomologies H^*(M,N) as total cohomologies of certain double complexes Y(M,N) and…
We determine and classify all finite-dimensional Hopf algebras over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero whose Hopf coradicals are isomorphic to dual Radford algebras of dimension $4p$ for a prime $p>5$. In particular, we…
We study the non-abelian Hopf cohomology theory of Radford products with coefficients in a comodule algebra. We show that these sets can be expressed in terms of the non-abelian Hopf cohomology theory of each factor of the Radford product.…
Under suitable assumptions on the base field, we prove that a commutative semisimple Yetter-Drinfel'd Hopf algebra over a finite abelian group is trivial, i.e., is an ordinary Hopf algebra, if its dimension is relatively prime to the order…
We use Hopf algebroids to formulate a notion of a noncommutative and non-cocommutative Hopf 2-algebra. We show how these arise from a bicrossproduct Hopf algebra with Peiffer identities. In particular, we show that for a Hopf algebra $H$…
