Generalized diagonal crossed products and smash products for quasi-Hopf algebras. Applications

In this paper we introduce generalizations of diagonal crossed products, two-sided crossed products and two-sided smash products, for a quasi-Hopf algebra H. The results we obtain may be applied to H^*-Hopf bimodules and generalized Yetter-Drinfeld modules. The generality of our situation entails that the "generating matrix" formalism cannot be used, forcing us to use a different approach. This pays off because as an application we obtain an easy conceptual proof of an important but very technical result of Hausser and Nill concerning iterated two-sided crossed products.

A structure theorem for quasi-Hopf comodule algebras

If H is a quasi-Hopf algebra and B is a right H-comodule algebra such that there exists v:H\to B a morphism of right H-comodule algebras, we prove that there exists a left H-module algebra A such that B\simeq A# H. The main difference comparing to the Hopf case is that, from the multiplication of B, which is associative, we have to obtain the multiplication of A, which in general is not; for this we use a canonical projection E arising from the fact that B becomes a quasi-Hopf H-bimodule.

Generalized (anti) Yetter-Drinfeld modules as components of a braided T-category

If H is a Hopf algebra with bijective antipode and α, β\in Aut_{Hopf}(H), we introduce a category_H{\cal YD}^H(α, β), generalizing both Yetter-Drinfeld and anti-Yetter-Drinfeld modules. We construct a braided T-category {\cal YD}(H) having all these categories as components, which if H is finite dimensional coincides with the representations of a certain quasitriangular T-coalgebra DT(H) that we construct. We also prove that if (α, β) admits a so-called pair in involution, then_H{\cal YD}^H(α, β) is isomorphic to the category of usual Yetter-Drinfeld modules_H{\cal YD}^H.

Hopf bimodules are modules over a diagonal crossed product algebra

If H is a finite dimensional Hopf algebra, C. Cibils and M. Rosso found an algebra X having the property that Hopf bimodules over H^* coincide with left X-modules. We find two other algebras, Y and Z, having the same property; namely, Y is the "two-sided crossed product" H^*#(H\otimes H^{op})# H^{* op} and Z is the "diagonal crossed product" (H^*\otimes H^{*op})\bowtie (H\otimes H^{op}) (both concepts are due to F. Hausser and F. Nill). We also find explicit isomorphisms between the algebras X, Y, Z.

Doubles of (quasi) Hopf algebras and some examples of quantum groupoids and vertex groups related to them

Let A be a finite dimensional Hopf algebra and (H, R) a quasitriangular bialgebra. Denote by H^*_R a certain deformation of the multiplication of H^* via R. We prove that H^*_R is a quantum commutative left H\otimes H^{op cop}-module algebra. If H is the Drinfel'd double of A then H^*_R is the Heisenberg double of A. We study the relation between H^*_R and Majid's "covariantised product". We give a formula for the canonical element of the Heisenberg double of A, solution to the pentagon equation, in terms of the R-matrix of the Drinfel'd double of A. We generalize a theorem of Jiang-Hua Lu on quantum groupoids and using this and the above we obtain an example of a quantum groupoid having the Heisenberg double of A as base. If, in Richard Borcherds' concept of a "vertex group" we allow the "ring of singular functions" to be noncommutative, we prove that if A is a finite dimensional cocommutative Hopf algebra then the Heisenberg double of A is a vertex group over A. The construction and properties of H^*_R are given also for quasi-bialgebras and a definition for the Heisenberg double of a finite dimensional quasi-Hopf algebra is proposed.

Deformation cohomology for Yetter-Drinfel'd modules and Hopf (bi)modules

If A is a bialgebra over a field k and M, N are either left-right Yetter-Drinfel'd modules or left-right Hopf modules over A, we construct deformation cohomologies H^*(M,N) as total cohomologies of certain double complexes Y(M,N) and C(M,N), respectively. In both cases, H^1(M,N) is isomorphic to the group of equivalence classes of extensions of M by N in the corresponding category. In the Yetter-Drinfel'd case, H^*(k,k) is just the Gerstenhaber-Schack cohomology of the bialgebra A. If M, N are Hopf bimodules we construct a natural subbicomplex of the above C(M,N), yielding a cohomology theory for Hopf bimodules, similar to the one recently introduced by R. Taillefer.

Relating the Connes-Kreimer and Grossman-Larson Hopf algebras built on rooted trees

We find a relation between two Hopf algebras built on rooted trees. The first is the Connes-Kreimer Hopf algebra H_R which describes a certain type of renormalization in quantum field theory; the second is the Grossman-Larson Hopf algebra A introduced ten years ago by some "differential" and combinatorial reasons. Roughly, the relation is the following: there exists a duality between these two Hopf algebras. We study then two natural operators on A, inspired by similar ones introduced by Connes and Kreimer for H_R.
