We provide isomorphism results for Hopf algebras that are obtained as graded twistings of function algebras on finite groups by cocentral actions of cyclic groups. More generally , we also consider the isomorphism problem for…

We construct countable groups $G$ with the following new degree of W*-superrigidity: if $L(G)$ is virtually isomorphic, in the sense of admitting a bifinite bimodule, with any other group von Neumann algebra $L(\Lambda)$, then the groups…

A 2-Hilbert space is a category with structures and properties analogous to those of a Hilbert space. More precisely, we define a 2-Hilbert space to be an abelian category enriched over Hilb with a *-structure, conjugate-linear on the…

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…

Any finite-dimensional complex pointed Hopf algebra with group of group-likes isomorphic to a sporadic group, with the possible exception of the Fischer groups Fi22, the Baby Monster B and the Monster M, is a group algebra.

Let $U$ be an algebraic subgroup of the group of $n\times n$ upper-triangular matrices with units on the diagonal over a finite field of large enough characteristic, and $\mathfrak{n}$ be the Lie algebra of $U$. The main tool in…

Lyubashenko's construction associates representations of mapping class groups Map_{g,n} of Riemann surfaces of any genus g with any number n of holes to a factorizable ribbon category. We consider this construction as applied to the…

For a fixed finite group $Q$ and semi-simple finite dimensional algebra $S$, we examine an equivalence between strongly $Q$-graded algebras (extensions) with identity component $S$ and $S^1$-gerbes on action groupoids of $Q$ on the set of…

In this paper, we examine a time-dependent family of two-dimensional algebras. We investigate the conditions under which any two algebras from this family, formed at different times, are isomorphic. Our findings reveal that the flow…

We describe the Galois objects and biGalois groups of monomial nonsemisimple Hopf algebras. The main feature of our description is the use of modified versions of the second cohomology group of the grouplike elements. These computations…

We consider the (finite-dimensional) small quantum group $\bar{U}_q sl(2)$ at $q=i$. We show that $\bar{U}_i sl(2)$ does not allow for an R-matrix, even though $U \otimes V \cong V \otimes U$ holds for all finite-dimensional representations…

We introduce a new filtration on Hopf algebras, the standard filtration, generalizing the coradical filtration. Its zeroth term, called the Hopf coradical, is the subalgebra generated by the coradical. We give a structure theorem: any Hopf…

This paper is a first step toward the full description of a family of Hopf algebras whose coradical is isomorphic to a semisimple Hopf algebra K_{n}, n an odd positive integer, obtained by a cocentral abelian cleft extension. We describe…

This is a report on the present state of the problem of determining the dimension of the Nichols algebra associated to a rack and a cocycle. This is relevant for the classification of finite-dimensional complex pointed Hopf algebras whose…

We present an application of the program of groupoidification leading up to a sketch of a categorification of the Hecke algebroid --- the category of permutation representations of a finite group. As an immediate consequence, we obtain a…

We calculate all irreducible representations over a subfamily of pointed Hopf algebras with group-likes the dihedral group analyzing the possible decompositions of the restriction to the dihedral group and calculating the Jacobson radical…

Let $H$ be a semisimple Hopf algebra over an algebraically closed field $\mathbbm{k}$ of characteristic $p>\dim_{\mathbbm{k}}(H)^{1/2}$ and $p\nmid 2\dim_{\mathbbm{k}}(H)$. In this paper, we consider the smash product semisimple Hopf…

In this paper we contribute to the classification of Hopf algebras of dimension pq, where p,q are distinct prime numbers. More precisely, we prove that if p and q are odd primes with p<q<2p+3, then any complex Hopf algebra of dimension pq…

Let $(H, \sigma)$ be a coquasitriangular Hopf algebra, not necessarily finite dimensional. Following methods of Doi and Takeuchi, which parallel the constructions of Radford in the case of finite dimensional quasitriangular Hopf algebras,…

We derive necessary and sufficient conditions for an ambiskew polynomial ring to have a Hopf algebra structure of a certain type. This construction generalizes many known Hopf algebras, for example U(sl2), U_q(sl2) and the enveloping…
