This paper introduces methods for classifying actions of finite-dimensional Hopf algebras on path algebras of quivers, and more generally on tensor algebras $T_B(V)$ where $B$ is semisimple. We work within the broader framework of finite…

For each braided category $\mathcal{C}$ we show that, under mild hypotheses, there is an associated category of "half braided algebras" and their bimodules internal to $\mathcal{C}$ which is not only monoidal but even braided and balanced.…

In this paper, we introduce the category of brace triples in a braided monoidal setting and prove that it is isomorphic to the category of s-Hopf braces, which are a generalization of cocommutative Hopf braces. After that, we obtain a…

Starting with a self-dual Hopf algebra H in a braided monoidal category S we construct a Z/2Z-graded monoidal category C = C_0 + C_1. The degree zero component is the category Rep_S(H) of representations of H and the degree one component is…

We find a new class of Hopf algebras, local quasitriangular Hopf algebras, which generalize quasitriangular Hopf algebras. Using these Hopf algebras, we obtain solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation in a systematic way. The category of…

We give the classification of 3-dimensional Bol algebras associated to the trilinears operations $(e_2,e_3, e_2)=e_1, (e_2, e_3, e_3)=\pme_2$. It turn that for such trilinears operation there exist up to isomorphism and isotopy one family…

The general method of Reshetikhin and Turaev is followed to develop topological invariants of closed, connected, orientable 3-manifolds from a new class of algebras called pseudo-modular Hopf algebras. Pseudo-modular Hopf algebras are a…

Let A be a Hopf algebra in a braided rigid category B. In the case B admits a coend C, which is a Hopf algebra in B, we defined in 2008 the double D(A) of A, which is a quasitriangular Hopf algebra in B whose category of modules is…

The aim of this paper is an algebraic study of the Hopf algebra H_R of rooted trees, which was introduced in \cite{Kreimer1,Connes,Broadhurst,Kreimer2}. We first construct comodules over H_R from finite families of primitive elements.…

Hopf algebras appear in connection with various problems in Pure Mathematics and Theoretical Physics, mainly through their categoriesof representations, which are examples of tensor categories. In recent years, there have been major…

Given a finite dimensional Hopf algebra H and an exact indecomposable module category M over Rep(H), we explicitly compute the adjoint algebra A_M as an object in the category of Yetter-Drinfeld modules over H, and the space of class…

We define a "combinatorial Hopf algebra" as a Hopf algebra which is free (or cofree) and equipped with a given isomorphism to the free algebra over the indecomposables (resp. the cofree coalgebra over the primitives). The choice of such an…

We give an introductory survey to the use of Hopf algebras in several problems of noncommutative geometry. The main example, the Hopf algebra of rooted trees, is a graded, connected Hopf algebra arising from a universal construction. We…

The paper begins by giving an algebraic structure on a set of coset representatives for the left action of a subgroup on a group. From this we construct a non-trivially associated tensor category. Also a double construction is given, and…

Family of doublings of Hopf algeras based on the product of algebra and its dual are constructed and studied. Special cases of these construction may be considered as natural quantum analogs of rings of differential operators on groups.…

We introduce a natural generalization of the definition of a symmetric Hopf algebroid, internal to any symmetric monoidal category with coequalizers that commute with the monoidal product. Motivation for this is the study of Heisenberg…

Let $H$ be a Hopf algebra in a braided rigid monoidal category $\mathcal{V}$ admitting a coend $C$. We define a ``coend element'' of $H$ to be a morphism from $C$ to $H$. We then study certain coend elements of $H$, which generalize…

In this paper we explore the topological properties of self-replicating, 3-dimensional manifolds, which are modeled by idempotents in the (2+1)-cobordism category. We give a classification theorem for all such idempotents. Additionally, we…

We prove that $S^1$ is a unimodular, cocommutative Hopf algebra in the category $CW^{1+1}$ of 2-equivalence classes of cobordisms of 2-dimensional CW-complexes and that $CW^{1+1}$ is actually equivalent to the symmetric monoidal category…

We propose the following principle to study pointed Hopf algebras, or more generally, Hopf algebras whose coradical is a Hopf subalgebra. Given such a Hopf algebra A, consider its coradical filtration and the associated graded coalgebra…
