Let $G$ be a finite group and let $\pi: G \to G'$ be a surjective group homomorphism. Consider the cocycle deformation $L = H^{\sigma}$ of the Hopf algebra $H = k^G$ of $k$-valued linear functions on $G$, with respect to some convolution…

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…

The scissors congruence conjecture for the unimodular group is an analogue of Hilbert's third problem, for the equidecomposability of polytopes. Liu and Osserman studied the Ehrhart quasi-polynomials of polytopes naturally associated to…

Firstly, we introduce a class of new algebraic systems which generalize Hopf quasigroups and Hopf $\pi-$algebras called $Q$-graded Hopf quasigroups, and research some properties of them. Secondly, we define the representations of $Q$-graded…

Descent algebras of graded bialgebras were introduced by F. Patras as a generalization of Solomon's descent algebras for Coxeter groups of type $A$, i.e. symmetric groups. The universal enveloping algebra of the free Lie algebra on a…

The goal of this thesis is to prove that $\pi_4(S^3) \simeq \mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}$ in homotopy type theory. In particular it is a constructive and purely homotopy-theoretic proof. We first recall the basic concepts of homotopy type theory,…

We consider multiple polylogarithms in a single variable at non-positive integers. Defining a connected graded Hopf algebra, we apply Connes' and Kreimer's algebraic Birkhoff decomposition to renormalize multiple polylogarithms at…

It is shown in math.QA/0301027 that a finite dimensional quasi-Hopf algebra with radical of codimension 1 is semisimple and 1-dimensional. On the other hand, there exist quasi-Hopf (in fact, Hopf) algebras, whose radical has codimension 2.…

Contracting the $h$-deformation of $\SL(2,\Real)$, we construct a new deformation of two dimensional Poincar\'e algebra, the algebra of functions on its group and its differential structure. It is also shown that the Hopf algebra is…

We study the representations and their Frobenius-Schur indicators of two semisimple Hopf algebras related to the symmetric group $S_n$, namely the bismash products $H_n = k^{C_n}# kS_{n-1}$ and its dual $J_n = k^{S_{n-1}}# kC_n = (H_n)^*,$…

There is a surprising isomorphism between the quantised universal enveloping algebras of osp(1|2n) and so(2n+1). This same isomorphism emerged in recent work of Mikhaylov and Witten in the context of string theory as a T-duality composed…

Let A be a Hopf algebra and H a coalgebra. We shall describe and classify up to an isomorphism all Hopf algebras E that factorize through A and H: that is E is a Hopf algebra such that A is a Hopf subalgebra of E, H is a subcoalgebra in E…

A number of problems in theoretical physics share a common nucleus of combinatoric nature. It is argued here that Hopf algebraic concepts and techiques can be particularly efficient in dealing with such problems. As a first example, a brief…

In this paper we study the properties of Drinfeld's twisting for finite-dimensional Hopf algebras. We determine how the integral of the dual to a unimodular Hopf algebra $H$ changes under twisting of $H$. We show that the classes of…

This is a contribution to the problem of classifying all deformations - a. k. a. liftings - of the bosonization of a Nichols algebra $\mathfrak{B}(V)$ over a cosemisimple and non-semisimple Hopf algebra $H$. Such a situation arises when the…

Let G be the group of all formal power series starting with x with coefficients in a field k of zero characteristic (with the composition product), and let F[G] be its function algebra. C. Brouder and A. Frabetti introduced a…

The search for elliptic quantum groups leads to a modified quantum Yang-Baxter relation and to a special class of quasi-triangular quasi Hopf algebras. This paper calculates deformations of standard quantum groups (with or without spectral…

A family of deformed Hopf algebras corresponding to the classical maximal isometry algebras of zero-curvature N-dimensional spaces (the inhomogeneous algebras iso(p,q), p+q=N, as well as some of their contractions) are shown to have a…

Let H be a connected Hopf k-algebra of finite Gel'fand-Kirillov dimension over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic 0. The objects of study in this paper are the left or right coideal subalgebras T of H. They are shown to be…
