The goal of the present paper is to classify an interesting class of elementary quasi-Hopf algebras, or equivalently, finite-dimensional pointed Majid algebras. By a Tannaka-Krein type duality, this determines a big class of pointed finite…
We classify all non-abelian groups G such that there exists a pair (V,W) of absolutely simple Yetter-Drinfeld modules over G such that the Nichols algebra of the direct sum of V and W is finite-dimensional under two assumptions: the square…
We give an explicit presentation of a family of finite-dimensional pointed Hopf algebras over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero that constitute all liftings of Nichols algebras of diagonal Cartan type $B_{3}$ over a…
A fundamental step in the classification of finite-dimensional complex pointed Hopf algebras is the determination of all finite-dimensional Nichols algebras of braided vector spaces arising from groups. The most important class of braided…
We classify pointed Hopf algebras with finite Gelfand-Kirillov dimension, which are domains, whose groups of group-like elements are finitely generated and abelian, and whose infinitesimal braidings are positive.
We present techniques that allow to decide that the dimension of some pointed Hopf algebras associated with non-abelian groups is infinite. These results are consequences of arXiv:0803.2430v1. We illustrate each technique with applications.
We classify all groups G and all pairs (V,W) of absolutely simple Yetter-Drinfeld modules over G such that the support of the direct sum of V and W generates G, the square of the braiding between V and W is not the identity, and the Nichols…
This is a sequel to arXiv:0807.2406. It is shown that the Nichols algebras over the symmetric groups S_m, m > 4, are all infinite-dimensional, except (maybe) those related to the transpositions considered by Fomin and Kirillov, resp.…
This note is an application of classification results for finite-dimensional Nichols algebras over groups. We apply these results to generalizations of Fomin--Kirillov algebras to complex reflection groups. First, we focus on the case of…
We show that all unipotent classes in finite simple Chevalley or Steinberg groups, different from PSL_n(q) and PSp_{2n}(q), collapse (i.e. are never the support of a finite-dimensional Nichols algebra), with a possible exception on one…
We classify infinite-dimensional decomposable braided vector spaces arising from abelian groups whose components are either points or blocks such that the corresponding Nichols algebras have finite Gelfand-Kirillov dimension. In particular…
We study the quantum double of a finite abelian group $G$ twisted by a $3$-cocycle and give a sufficient condition when such a twisted quantum double will be gauge equivalent to a ordinary quantum double of a finite group. Moreover, we will…
We show that all classes that are neither semisimple nor unipotent in finite simple Chevalley or Steinberg groups different from $PSL_n(q)$ collapse (i.e. are never the support of a finite-dimensional Nichols algebra). As a consequence, we…
We complete the classification of the pointed Hopf algebras with finite Gelfand-Kirillov dimension that are liftings of the Jordan plane over a nilpotent-by-finite group, correcting the statement in arXiv:1512.09271.
We classify graded pre-Nichols algebras of diagonal type with finite Gelfand-Kirillov dimension. The characterization is made through an isomorphism of posets with the family of appropriate subsets of the set of positive roots coming from…
This is a survey on Nichols algebras of diagonal type with finite dimension, or more generally with arithmetic root system. The knowledge of these algebras is the cornerstone of the classification program of pointed Hopf algebras with…
This is a contribution to the classification program of pointed Hopf algebras. We give a generalization of the quantum Serre relations and propose a generalization of the Frobenius-Lusztig kernels in order to compute Nichols algebras of…
In this article, we explicitly construct new finite-dimensional, link-indecomposable Nichols algebras with Dynkin diagrams of type An,Cn,Dn,E6,E7,E8,F4 over any group G with commutator subgroup isomorphic to Z_2.The construction is generic…
Let $H_8$ be the neither commutative nor cocommutative semisimple eight dimensional Hopf algebra, which is also called Kac-Paljutkin algebra \cite{MR0208401}. All simple Yetter-Drinfel'd modules over $H_8$ are given. As for simple objects…
The classification of Nichols algebras is an essential step in the classification theory of pointed Hopf algebras by lifting method of N. Andruskiewitsch and H.-J. Schneider. Arithmetic root systems are invariants of Nichols algebras of…
