The Grothendieck algebras of certain smash product semisimple Hopf algebras

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 algebra $H\#\mathbbm{k}G$, where $G$ is a cyclic group of order $n:=2\dim_{\mathbbm{k}}(H)$. Using irreducible representations of $H$ and those of $\mathbbm{k}G$, we determine all non-isomorphic irreducible representations of $H\#\mathbbm{k}G$. There is a close relationship between the Grothendieck algebra $(G_0(H\#\mathbbm{k}G)\otimes_{\mathbb{Z}}\mathbbm{k},*)$ of $H\#\mathbbm{k}G$ and the Grothendieck algebra $(G_0(H)\otimes_{\mathbb{Z}}\mathbbm{k},*)$ of $H$. To establish this connection, we endow with a new multiplication operator $\star$ on $G_0(H)\otimes_{\mathbb{Z}}\mathbbm{k}$ and show that the Grothendieck algebra $(G_0(H\#\mathbbm{k}G)\otimes_{\mathbb{Z}}\mathbbm{k},\ast)$ is isomorphic to the direct sum of $(G_0(H)\otimes_{\mathbb{Z}}\mathbbm{k},*)^{\oplus\frac{n}{2}}$ and $(G_0(H)\otimes_{\mathbb{Z}}\mathbbm{k},\star)^{\oplus\frac{n}{2}}$.

Higher Frobenius-Schur indicators for semisimple Hopf algebras in positive characteristic

Let $H$ be a semisimple Hopf algebra over an algebraically closed field $\mathbbm{k}$ of characteristic $p>\dim_{\mathbbm{k}}(H)^{1/2}$. We show that the antipode $S$ of $H$ satisfies the equality $S^2(h)=\mathbf{u}h\mathbf{u}^{-1}$, where $h\in H$, $\mathbf{u}=S(Λ_{(2)})Λ_{(1)}$ and $Λ$ is a nonzero integral of $H$. The formula of $S^2$ enables us to define higher Frobenius-Schur indicators for the Hopf algebra $H$. This generalizes the notions of higher Frobenius-Schur indicators from the case of characteristic 0 to the case of characteristic $p>\dim_{\mathbbm{k}}(H)^{1/2}$. These indicators defined here share some properties with the ones defined over a field of characteristic 0. Especially, all these indicators are gauge invariants for the tensor category Rep$(H)$ of finite dimensional representations of $H$.

Invariants from the Sweedler power maps on integrals

For a finite-dimensional Hopf algebra $A$ with a nonzero left integral $Λ$, we investigate a relationship between $P_n(Λ)$ and $P_n^J(Λ)$, where $P_n$ and $P_n^J$ are respectively the $n$-th Sweedler power maps of $A$ and the twisted Hopf algebra $A^J$. We use this relation to give several invariants of the representation category Rep$(A)$ considered as a tensor category. As applications, we distinguish the representation categories of 12-dimensional pointed nonsemisimple Hopf algebras. Also, these invariants are sufficient to distinguish the representation categories Rep$(K_8)$, Rep$(\kk Q_8)$ and Rep$(\kk D_4)$, although they have been completely distinguished by their Frobenius-Schur indicators. We further reveal a relationship between the right integrals $λ$ in $A^*$ and $λ^J$ in $(A^J)^*$. This can be used to give a uniform proof of the remarkable result which says that the $n$-th indicator $ν_n(A)$ is a gauge invariant of $A$ for any $n\in \mathbb{Z}$. We also use the expression for $λ^J$ to give an alternative proof of the known result that the Killing form of the Hopf algebra $A$ is invariant under twisting. As a result, the dimension of the Killing radical of $A$ is a gauge invariant of $A$.

Quasitriangular Hopf algebras of dimension pq^2

Let p and q be distinct odd primes and assume k is an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. We classify all quasitriangular Hopf algebras of dimension pq^2 over k, which are not simple as Hopf algebras. Moreover, we obtained all quasitriangular structures on these Hopf algebras.

On the Antipode of Hopf Algebras with the Dual Chevalley Property

In this paper, we study the antipode of a finite-dimensional Hopf algebra $H$ with the dual Chevalley property and obtain an annihilation polynomial for its antipode $S$. The annihilation polynomial is determined by the exponent $N$ of the coradical and the Loewy length. In particular, the order of $S^2$ divides $N$ in characteristic $0$. Moreover, we get two characterizations of the quasi-exponent.

On the quasitriangular structures of abelian extensions of $Z_2$

The aim of this paper is to study quasitriangular structures on a class of semisimple Hopf algebras constructed through abelian extensions of $Z_2$ for an abelian group $G$. We prove that there are only two forms of them. Using such description together with some other techniques, we get a complete list of all universal $\mathcal{R}$-matrices on some Hopf algebras.

A classification result on prime Hopf algebras of GK-dimension one

In this paper, we classify all prime Hopf algebras $H$ of GK-dimension one satisfying the following two conditions: 1) $H$ has a 1-dimensional representation of order PI.deg$(H)$ and 2) the invariant components of $H$ with respect to this 1-dimensional representation are domains (see Section 2 for related definitions). As consequences, 1) a number of new Hopf algebras of GK-dimension one are found and some of them are not pointed, 2) we give a partial answer to a question posed by Brown and Zhang and 3) some new kinds of finite-dimensional Hopf algebras are found.

Finite quasi-quantum groups of diagonal type

The goal of the present paper is to classify an interesting class of elementary quasi-Hopf algebras, or equivalently, finite-dimensional pointed Majid algebras. By a Tannaka-Krein type duality, this determines a big class of pointed finite tensor categories. Based on some interesting observations of normalized 3-cocycles on finite abelian groups, we elucidate an explicit connection between our objective pointed Majid algebras and finite-dimensional pointed Hopf algebras over finite abelian groups. With a help of this connection and the successful theory of diagonal Nichols algebras over abelian groups, we provide a conceptual classification of finite-dimensional graded pointed Majid algebras of diagonal type. Some efficient methods of construction are also given.

The braided monoidal structures on a class of linear Gr-categories

A linear Gr-category is a category of finite-dimensional vector spaces graded by a finite group together with natural tensor product. We classify the braided monoidal structures of a class of linear Gr-categories via explicit computations of the 3-cocycles and quasi-bicharacters of finite abelian groups which are direct product of two cyclic groups.

Graded elementary quasi-Hopf algebras of tame representation type

The class of graded elementary quasi-Hopf algebras of tame type is classified. Combining with our previous work [19], this completes the trichotomy for such class of algebras according to their representation types. In addition, new examples of genuine elementary quasi-Hopf algebras, and accordingly finite pointed tensor categories, are provided.

Representations of the small quasi-quantum group ${Q}\mathbf{u}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}_{2})$

The quasi-Frobenius-Lusztig kernel ${Q}\mathbf{u}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}_{2})$ associated with $\mathfrak{sl}_{2}$ has been constructed in \cite{Liu}. In this paper we study the representations of this small quasi-quantum group. We give a complete list of non-isomorphic indecomposables and the tensor product decomposition rules for simples and projectives. A description of the Grothendieck ring is provided.

On Total Frobenius-Schur Indicators

We define total Frobenius-Schur indicator for each object in a spherical fusion category $C$ as a certain canonical sum of its higher indicators. The total indicators are invariants of spherical fusion categories. If $C$ is the representation category of a semisimple quasi-Hopf algebra $H$, we prove that the total indicators are non-negative integers which satisfy a certain divisibility condition. In addition, if $H$ is a Hopf algebra, then all the total indicators are positive. Consequently, the positivity of total indicators is a necessary condition for a quasi-Hopf algebra being gauge equivalent to a Hopf algebra. Certain twisted quantum doubles of finite groups and some examples of Tambara-Yamagami categories are discussed for the sufficiency of this positivity condition.
