On Separable and Frobenius Cowreaths of type $(A \otimes H^{\mathrm{op}}, H,ψ)$

Cowreaths of type $(A \otimes H^{\mathrm{op}},H,ψ)$ have been investigated in [10,19-21,27] as examples of (h-)separable and Frobenius coalgebras in monoidal categories. They are entwining structures built from a Hopf algebra $H$ and an $H$-comodule algebra $(A,ρ_A)$. In this article we develop a general theory that allows us to recover results from the aforementioned papers in an easier way and also to extend them to cowreaths in higher dimension. Focusing on separability, the crucial observation is that, when $H$ has bijective antipode, one should work with integrals on the coalgebra $(H,ψ)$ in place of Casimir morphisms, for they are easier to classify. On the other hand, in dealing with Frobenius properties, we obtain that a cowreath $(A \otimes H^{\mathrm{op}},H,ψ)$ is Frobenius if and only if the morphism $(\mathrm{Id}_A \otimes μ)ρ_A$ is inner ($μ$ is the distinguished grouplike element in $H^*$). While Frobenius cowreaths are always (h-)separable, examples of (h-)separable cowreaths that are not Frobenius will be presented at the end of this article.

Infinitesimal $\mathcal{R}$-matrices for some families of Hopf algebras

Given a bialgebra $H$ such that the associated trivial topological bialgebra $H[[\hbar]]$ admits a quasitriangular structure $\tilde{\mathcal{R}}=\mathcal{R}(1\otimes 1+\hbarχ+\mathcal{O}(\hbar^2))$, one gets a distinguished element $χ\in H \otimes H$ which is an infinitesimal $\mathcal{R}$-matrix, according to the definition given in [1]. In this paper we classify infinitesimal $\mathcal{R}$-matrices for some families of well-known Hopf algebras, among which are the generalized Kac-Paljutkin Hopf algebras $H_{2n^2}$, the Radford Hopf algebras $H_{(r,n,q)}$, and the Hopf algebras $E(n)$.

Separable cowreaths in higher dimension

In this paper we present an infinite family of (h-)separable cowreaths with increasing dimension. Menini and Torrecillas proved in [20] that for $A=Cl(α,β, γ)$, a four-dimensional Clifford algebra, and $H=H_4$, Sweedler's Hopf algebra, the cowreath $(A \otimes H^{op},H, ψ)$ is always (h-)separable. We show how to produce similar examples in higher dimension by considering a $2^{n+1}$-dimensional Clifford algebra $A=Cl(α,β_i,γ_i,λ_{ij})$ and $H=E(n)$, a suitable pointed Hopf algebra that generalizes $H_4$. We adopt the approach pursued in [19], requiring that the separability morphism be of a simplified form, which in turn forces the defining scalars $α,β_i,γ_i,λ_{ij}$ to satisfy further conditions.

E(n)-coactions on semisimple Clifford algebras

In this article we prove that $E(n)$-coactions over a finite-dimensional algebra $A$ are classified by tuples $(φ, d_1, ... , d_n)$ consisting of an involution $φ$ and a family $(d_i)_{i=1,...,n}$ of $φ$-derivations satisfying appropriate conditions. Tuples of maps can be replaced by tuples of suitable elements $(c, u_1, . . . , u_n)$, whenever $A$ is a semisimple Clifford algebra.
