We show that the representation category of the quantum group of a non-degenerate bilinear form is monoidally equivalent to the representation category of the quantum group SL_q(2), for a well chosen non-zero parameter q. The main…

We introduce a noncommutative and noncocommutative Hopf algebra which takes for certain Hopf categories (and therefore braided monoidal bicategories) a similar role as the Grothendieck- Teichmueller group for quasitensor categories. We also…

We show that semisimple Hopf algebras having a self-dual faithful irreducible comodule of dimension 2 are always obtained as abelian extensions with quotient Z_2. We prove that nontrivial Hopf algebras arising in this way can be regarded as…

Starting from a Hopf algebra endowed with an action of a group G by Hopf automorphisms, we construct (by a twisted double method) a quasitriangular Hopf G-coalgebra. This method allows us to obtain non-trivial examples of quasitriangular…

We extend the decomposition conjecture to 2d quantum field theories with a gauged $\text{Rep}(H)$ symmetry category for $H$ a finite-dimensional semisimple Hopf algebra with $\text{Rep}(G)$ trivially-acting and $\text{Vec}(\Gamma)$ the…

We define the Hopf algebra structure on the Grothendieck group of finite-dimensional polynomial representations of $U_q \hat{gl}_N$ in the limit $N \to \infty$. The resulting Hopf algebra $Rep U_q \hat{gl}_\infty$ is a tensor product of its…

We define a family of Hopf algebra objects, $H$, in the braided category of $\mathbb{Z}_n$-modules (known as anyonic vector spaces), for which the property $\psi^2_{H\otimes H}=id_{H\otimes H}$ holds. We will show that these anyonic Hopf…

Let $Q$ be a finite type quiver i.e. ADE Dynkin quiver. Denote by $\Lambda$ its preprojective algebra. It is known that there are finitely many indecomposable $\Lambda$-modules if and only if $Q$ is of type $A_1,A_2,A_3,A_4$. In this paper,…

Let $H$ and $L$ be quantum groupoids. If $H$ has a quasitriangular structure, then we show that $L$ induces a Hopf algebra $C_{L}(L_s)$ in the category $_{H}\mathcal{M}$, which generalizes the transmutation theory introduced by Majid.…

Let H be a cosemisimple Hopf algebra over an algebraically closed field k which contains a simple subcoalgebra of dimension 9. We show that if H has no simple subcoalgebras of even dimension then H contains either a grouplike element with…
