On some integral properties of dimensions in Isaacs fusion categories

For a fusion category, we prove some new integral properties concerning the dimension of a simple object that generates a Isaacs fusion subcategory. A stronger divisibility result is proven for any modular fusion category. This divisibility result implies the converse direction of a Ito-Michler type result for modular fusion categories, recently established by the author.

On Harada's identity and some other consequences of Burnside's vanishing property

In this short note, we prove some consequences of Burnside's vanishing property \cite{b-pa}. It is known that Harada's identity concerning the product of all conjugacy classes of a finite group is a consequence of Burnside's vanishing property of characters. We prove a similar formula for any weakly-integral fusion category. In the second part, we prove some structural results concerning nilpotent and modular fusion categories. As an application we show that any fusion category of dimension $p^2q^2r^2d$ with $p<q<r$ prime numbers and $d$ a square-free integer is weakly-group theoretical.

On normal tensor functors and coset decompositions for fusion categories

We introduce the notion of double cosets relative to two fusion subcategories of a fusion category. Given a tensor functor $F : \C \to \D$ between fusion categories, we introduce an equivalence relation $\approx^F$ on the set $Λ_\C$ of isomorphism classes of simple objects of $\C$, and when $F$ is dominant, an equivalence relation $\approx_F$ on $Λ_\D$. We show that the equivalent classes of $\approx^F$ are cosets. We also give a description of the image of $F$ when it is a normal tensor functor, and we show that $F$ is normal if and only if the images of $\approx^F$ equivalent elements of $Λ_\C$ are colinear. We study the situation where the composition of two tensor functors $F=F'F"$ is normal, and we give a criterion of normality for $F"$, with an application to equivariantizations. Lastly, we introduce the radical of a fusion subcategory and compare it to its commutator in the case of a normal subcategory. We also give a description for the image of a normal tensor functor between any two fusion categories.

G - functors arising from categorical group actions on abelian categories

A Mackey type decomposition for group actions on abelian categories is described. This allows us to define new Mackey functors which associates to any subgroup the $K$-theory of the corresponding equivariantized abelian category. In the case of an action by tensor autoequivalences the Mackey functor at the level of Grothendieck rings has a Green functor structure. As an application we give a description of the Grothendieck rings of equivariantized fusion categories under group actions by tensor autoequivalences on graded fusion categories.

On normal Hopf subalgebras of semisimple Hopf algebras

A criterion for subcoalgebras to be invariant under the adjoint action is given generalizing Masuoka's criterion for normal Hopf subalgebras. At the level of characters, the image of the induction functor from a normal Hopf subalgebra is isomorphic to the image of the restriction functor.

Depth one extensions of semisimple algebras and Hopf subalgebras

An extension of $k$-algebras $B \subset A$ is said to have depth one if there exists a positive integer $n$ such that $ A$ is a direct summand of $ B^n$ in $_B\mtr{Mod}_B$. Depth one extensions of semisimple algebras are completely characterized in terms of their centers. For extensions of semisimple Hopf algebras our results are similar to those obtained for finite group algebra extensions in \cite{BKone}.

Clifford theory for cocentral extensions

The classical Clifford correspondence for normal subgroups is considered in the more general setting of semisimple Hopf algebras. We prove that this correspondence still holds if the extension determined by the normal Hopf subalgebra is cocentral.

A class of quantum doubles which are ribbon algebras

Andruskiewitsch and Schneider classify a large class of pointed Hopf algebras with abelian coradical. The quantum double of each such Hopf algebra is investigated. The quantum doubles of a family of Hopf algebras from the above classification are ribbon Hopf algebras.

Coset decomposition for semisimple Hopf algebras

The notion of double coset for semisimple finite dimensional Hopf algebras is introduced. This is done by considering an equivalence relation on the set of irreducible characters of the dual Hopf algebra. As an application formulae for the restriction of the irreducible characters to normal Hopf subalgebras are given.

Normal Hopf subalgebras of semisimple Hopf algebras

In this note the notion of kernel of a representation of a semisimple Hopf algebra is introduced. Similar properties to the kernel of a group representation are proved in some special cases. In particular, every normal Hopf subalgebra of a semisimple Hopf algebra H is the kernel of a representation of H.

The Grothendieck Group of Hopf Algebras

Let H be a cosemisimple Hopf algebra over an algebraically closed field k which contains a simple subcoalgebra of dimension 9. We show that if H has no simple subcoalgebras of even dimension then H contains either a grouplike element with order 2 or 3, a Hopf subalgebra of dimension 75, or a family of simple subcoalgebras whose dimensions are the squares of each positive odd integer. In particular, if H is finite odd dimensional, then its dimension is divisible by 3.
