This paper is devoted to explore the freeness of Nichols algebras of diagonal type and to determine the dimension of the kernel of the shuffle map considered as an operator acting on the free algebra. Our proof is based on an inequality for…

It is shown that a Hopf algebra over a field admitting a Galois extension separable over its subalgebra of coinvariants is of finite dimension. This answers in the affirmative a question posed by Beattie et al. in [{\it Proc. Amer. Math.…

We investigate the reflection theory of Nichols algebras over arbitrary coquasi-Hopf algebras with bijective antipode, generalizing previous results restricted to the pointed cosemisimple setting [47]. By establishing a braided monoidal…

We introduce dual Hopf algebras which simultaneously combine the concepts of the k-Schur function theory with the quasi-symmetric Schur function theory. We construct dual basis of these Hopf algebras with remarkable properties.

This paper is devoted to the study of the quasitriangularity of Hopf algebras via Hopf quiver approaches. We give a combinatorial description of the Hopf quivers whose path coalgebras give rise to coquasitriangular Hopf algebras. With a…
