It is shown that Nichols algebras over alternating groups A_m, m>4, are infinite dimensional. This proves that any complex finite dimensional pointed Hopf algebra with group of group-likes isomorphic to A_m is isomorphic to the group…
We translate the concept of restriction of an arrangement in terms of Hopf algebras. In consequence, every Nichols algebra gives rise to a simplicial complex decorated by Nichols algebras with restricted root systems. As applications, some…
We describe a method for quantization of Poisson Hopf algebras in $\mathbb Q$-linear symmetric monoidal categories. It is compatible with tensor products and can also be used to produce braided Hopf algebras. The main idea comes from the…
The Shapovalov determinant for a class of pointed Hopf algebras is calculated, including quantized enveloping algebras, Lusztig's small quantum groups, and quantized Lie superalgebras. Our main tools are root systems, Weyl groupoids, and…
We show that if $A$ and $H$ are Hopf algebras that have equivalent tensor categories of comodules, then one can transport what we call a free Yetter-Drinfeld resolution of the counit of $A$ to the same kind of resolution for the counit of…
A fundamental problem in the theory of Hopf algebras is the classification and explicit construction of finite-dimensional quasitriangular Hopf algebras over C. These Hopf algebras constitute a very important class of Hopf algebras,…
We construct a model of the affine nil-Hecke algebra as a subalgebra of the Nichols-Woronowicz algebra associated to a Yetter-Drinfeld module over the affine Weyl group. We also discuss the Peterson isomorphism between the homology of the…
Let $H$ be the dual of $16$-dimensional nontrivial semisimple Hopf algebra $H_{b:1}$ in the classification work of Kashina \cite{K00}. We completely determine all finite-dimensional Nichols algebras satisfying $\mathcal{B}(N)\cong…
We study graded right coideal subalgebras of Nichols algebras of semisimple Yetter-Drinfeld modules. Assuming that the Yetter-Drinfeld module admits all reflections and the Nichols algebra is decomposable, we construct an injective order…
One problematic feature of Hall algebras is the fact that the standard multiplication and comultiplication maps do not satisfy the bialgebra compatibility condition in the underlying symmetric monoidal category Vect. In the past this…
A fundamental problem in the theory of Hopf algebras is the classification and construction of finite-dimensional (minimal) triangular Hopf algebras (A,R) introduced by Drinfeld. Only recently Etingof and the author completely solved this…
We extend the previously established zesting techniques from fusion categories to general tensor categories. In particular we consider the category of comodules over a Hopf algebra, providing a detailed translation of the categorical…
An important step towards the classification of finite-dimensional pointed Hopf algebras is the classification of finite-dimensional Nichols algebras arising from braided vector spaces of group type. This question is fundamentally linked…
All -1-type pointed Hopf algebras and central quantum linear spaces with Weyl groups of exceptional type are found. It is proved that every non -1-type pointed Hopf algebra with real $G(H)$ is infinite dimensional and every central quantum…
Heckenberger introduced the Weyl groupoid of a finite-dimensional Nichols algebra of diagonal type. We replace the matrix of its braiding by a higher tensor and present a construction which yields further Weyl groupoids. Abelian cohomology…
By finite quantum groups we mean Lusztig's finite-dimensional pointed Hopf algebras called quantum Frobenius Kernels [9, 10], and their natural generalizations due to Andruskiewitsch and Schneider [2, 3]. For a Hopf algebra $H$ in a special…
We contribute to the classification of Hopf algebras with finite Gelfand-Kirillov dimension, $\operatorname{GKdim}$ for short, through the study of Nichols algebras over abelian groups. We deal first with braided vector spaces over $\mathbb…
This is a survey on the state-of-the-art of the classification of finite-dimensional complex Hopf algebras. This general question is addressed through the consideration of different classes of such Hopf algebras. Pointed Hopf algebras…
In a previous work \cite{AS2} we showed how to attach to a pointed Hopf algebra A with coradical $\k\Gamma$, a braided strictly graded Hopf algebra R in the category $_{\Gamma}^{\Gamma}\Cal{YD}$ of Yetter-Drinfeld modules over $\Gamma$. In…
It is an important open problem whether the dimension of the Nichols algebra B(O,\rho) is finite when O is the class of the transpositions and \rho is the sign representation, with m>= 6. In the present paper, we discard most of the other…
