The category of all $k$-algebras with a bilinear form, whose objects are all pairs $(R,b)$ where $R$ is a $k$-algebra and $b\colon R\times R\to k$ is a bilinear mapping, is equivalent to the category of unital $k$-algebras $A$ for which the…

We investigate when a weak Hopf algebra H is Frobenius; we show this is not always true, but it is true if the semisimple base algebra A has all its matrix blocks of the same dimension. However, if A is a semisimple algebra not having this…

The cyclic (co)homology of Hopf algebras is defined by Connes and Moscovici [math.DG/9806109] and later extended by Khalkhali et.al [math.KT/0306288] to admit stable anti-Yetter-Drinfeld coefficient module/comodules. In this paper we will…

We study monoidal comonads on a naturally Frobenius map-monoidale $M$ in a monoidal bicategory $\mathcal M$. We regard them as bimonoids in the duoidal hom-category $\mathcal M(M,M)$, and generalize to that setting various conditions…

Let $G$ be a group and assume that $(A_p)_{p\in G}$ is a family of algebras with identity. We have a {\it Hopf $G$-coalgebra} (in the sense of Turaev) if, for each pair $p,q\in G$, there is given a unital homomorphism $\co_{p,q}:A_{pq}\to…

In this paper we study the theory of cleft extensions for a weak bialgebra H. Among other results, we determine when two unitary crossed products of an algebra A by H are equivalent and we prove that if H is a weak Hopf algebra, then the…

We study weak commutative algebras in a symmetric monoidal model category $\mathscr{M}$. We provide a model structure on these algebras for any symmetric monoidal model category that is combinatorial and left proper. Our motivation was to…

We prove a number of results concerning monomorphisms, epimorphisms, dominions and codominions in categories of coalgebras. Examples include: (a) representation-theoretic characterizations of monomorphisms in all of these categories that…

Multiplier Hopf algebroids are algebraic versions of quantum groupoids that generalize Hopf algebroids to the non-unital case and weak (multiplier) Hopf algebras to non-separable base algebras. The main structure maps of a multiplier Hopf…

We introduce monoidal categories whose monoidal products of any positive number of factors are lax coherent and whose nullary products are oplax coherent. We call them $\mathsf{Lax}^+\mathsf{Oplax}^0$-monoidal. Dually, we consider…

We show that the category of partial comodules over a Hopf algebra $H$ is comonadic over ${\sf Vect}_k$ and provide an explicit construction of this comonad using topological vector spaces. The case when $H$ is finite dimensional is treated…

We show under what conditions the complex computing general Ext-groups carries the structure of a cyclic operad such that Ext becomes a Batalin-Vilkovisky algebra. This is achieved by transferring cyclic cohomology theories for the dual of…

We show how the data of a finite dimensional weak C^*-Hopf algebra can be encoded into a pair (H,V) where H is a finite dimensional Hilbert space and V: H \o H --> H \o H is a partial isometry satisfying, among others, the pentagon…

Motivated by recent work on weak distributive laws and their applications to coalgebraic semantics, we investigate the algebraic nature of semialgebras for a monad. These are algebras for the underlying functor of the monad subject to the…

The Drinfeld double associated to the weak multiplier Hopf ($*$-) algebra pairing $\left\langle A, B\right\rangle$ is constructed. We show that the Drinfeld double is again a weak multiplier Hopf ($*$-) algebra. If $A$ and $B$ are algebraic…

To characterize categorical constraints - associativity, commutativity and monoidality - in the context of quasimonoidal categories, from a cohomological point of view, we define the notion of a parity (quasi)complex. Applied to groups…

We extend the formalism of Hopf cyclic cohomology to the context of braided categories. For a Hopf algebra in a braided monoidal abelian category we introduce the notion of stable anti-Yetter-Drinfeld module. We associate a para-cocyclic…

In their study of Levin-Wen models [Commun. Math. Phys. 313 (2012) 351-373], Kitaev and Kong proposed a weak Hopf algebra associated with a unitary fusion category $\mathcal{C}$ and a unitary left $\mathcal{C}$-module $\mathcal{M}$, and…

In earlier work we studied the structure of primitive axial algebras of Jordan type (PAJ's), not necessarily commutative, in terms of their primitive axes. In this paper we weaken primitivity and permit several pairs of (left and right)…

A Frobenius algebra is a finite-dimensional algebra $A$ which comes equipped with a coassociative, counital comultiplication map $\Delta$ that is an $A$-bimodule map. Here, we examine comultiplication maps for generalizations of Frobenius…
