Abstract

For general finite-dimensional self-injective algebra AA we construct a family of injective coassociative coproducts AAAA\to A\otimes A, all AA-bimodule morphisms. In particular such structures always exist, confirming a conjecture of Hernandez, Walton and Yadav. The coproducts are indexed by subsets of {1,,m(i)}×{1,,m(ν1i)}\{1,\cdots,m(i)\}\times \{1,\cdots,m(\nu^{-1}i)\}, where AEndΛ(M)A\cong \mathrm{End}_{\Lambda}(M) is the general form of a self-injective algebra in terms of a basic Frobenius Λ\Lambda, the m(i)m(i), 1in1\le i\le n are the multiplicities of the indecomposable projective Λ\Lambda-modules in MM, and ν\nu is the Nakayama permutation of Λ\Lambda. We also characterize those among the coproducts introduced in this fashion, in terms this combinatorial data, which are counital.
