Doi-Hopf modules and Yetter-Drinfeld modules for quasi-Hopf algebras

For a quasi-Hopf algebra $H$, a left $H$-comodule algebra $\mf{B}$ and a right $H$-module coalgebra $C$ we will characterize the category of Doi-Hopf modules ${}^C{\cal M}(H)_{\mf{B}}$ in terms of modules. We will also show that for an $H$-bicomodule algebra $\mb{A}$ and an $H$-bimodule coalgebra $C$ the category of generalized Yetter-Drinfeld modules ${}_{\mb{A}}{\cal YD}(H)^C$ is isomorphic to a certain category of Doi-Hopf modules. Using this isomorphism we will transport the properties from the category of Doi-Hopf modules to the category of generalized Yetter-Drinfeld modules.

Naturally full functors in nature

We introduce and discuss the notion of naturally full functor. The definition is similar to the definition of separable functor: a naturally full functor is a functorial version of a full functor, while a separable functor is a functorial version of a faithful functor. We study general properties of naturally full functors. We also discuss when functors between module categories and between categories of comodules over a coring are naturally full.

Yetter-Drinfeld categories for quasi-Hopf algebras

We show that all possible categories of Yetter-Drinfeld modules over a quasi-Hopf algebra $H$ are isomorphic. We prove also that the category $\yd^{\rm fd}$ of finite dimensional left Yetter-Drinfeld modules is rigid and then we compute explicitly the canonical isomorphisms in $\yd^{\rm fd}$. Finally, we show that certain duals of $H_0$, the braided Hopf algebra introduced in \cite{bn,bpv}, are isomorphic as braided Hopf algebras if $H$ is a finite dimensional triangular quasi-Hopf algebra.

Galois theory for weak Hopf algebras

We develop Hopf-Galois theory for weak Hopf algebras, and recover analogs of classical results for Hopf algebras. Our methods are based on the recently introduced Galois theory for corings. We focus on the situatation where the weak Hopf algebra is a groupoid algebra or its dual. We obtain weak versions of strongly graded rings, and classical Galois extensions.

Galois corings applied to partial Galois theory

Partial Galois extensions were recently introduced by Dokuchaev, Ferrero and Paques. We introduce partial Galois extensions for noncommutative rings, using the theory of Galois corings. We associate a Morita context to a partial action on a ring.

On good filtration dimensions for standardly stratified algebras

$\nabla$-good filtration dimensions of modules and of algebras are introduced by Parker for quasi-hereditary algebras. These concepts are now generalized to the setting of standardly stratified algebras. Let $A$ be a standardly stratified algebra. The $\bar{\nabla}$-good filtration dimension of $A$ is proved to be the projective dimension of the characteristic module of $A$. Several characterizations of $\bar{\nabla}$-good filtration dimensions and $\barΔ$-good filtration dimensions are given for properly stratified algebras. Finally we give an application of these results to the global dimensions of quasi-hereditary algebras with exact Borel subalgebra.

Galois corings from the descent theory point of view

We introduce Galois corings, and give a survey of properties that have been obtained so far. The Definition is motivated using descent theory, and we show that classical Galois theory, Hopf-Galois theory and coalgebra Galois theory can be obtained as a special case.

More properties of Yetter-Drinfeld modules over quasi-Hopf algebras

We generalize various properties of Yetter-Drinfeld modules over Hopf algebras to quasi-Hopf algebras. The dual of a finite dimensional Yetter-Drinfeld module is again a Yetter-Drinfeld module. The algebra $H_0$ in the category of Yetter-Drinfeld modules that can be obtained by modifying the multiplication in a proper way is quantum commutative. We give a Structure Theorem for Hopf modules in the category of Yetter-Drinfeld modules, and deduce the existence and uniqueness of integrals from it.

Two-sided (two-cosided) Hopf modules and Doi-Hopf modules for quasi-Hopf algebras

Let $H$ be a finite dimensional quasi-Hopf algebra over a field $k$ and ${\mathfrak A}$ a right $H$-comodule algebra in the sense of Hausser and Nill. We first show that on the $k$-vector space ${\mathfrak A}\ot H^*$ we can define an algebra structure, denoted by ${\mathfrak A}\ovsm H^*$, in the monoidal category of left $H$-modules (i.e. ${\mathfrak A}\ovsm H^*$ is an $H$-module algebra. Then we will prove that the category of two-sided $({\mathfrak A}, H)$-bimodules $\hba $ is isomorphic to the category of relative $({\mathfrak A}\ovsm H^*, H^*)$-Hopf modules, as introduced in by Hausser and Nill. In the particular case where ${\mathfrak A}=H$, we will obtain a result announced by Nill. We will also introduce the categories of Doi-Hopf modules and two-sided two-cosided Hopf modules and we will show that they are in certain situations isomorphic to module categories.

Twistings, crossed coproducts and Hopf-Galois coextensions

Let $H$ be a Hopf algebra. Ju and Cai introduced the notion of twisting of an $H$-module coalgebra. In this note, we study the relationship between twistings, crossed coproducts and Hopf-Galois coextensions. In particular, we show that a twisting of an $H$-Galois coextension remains $H$-Galois if the twisting is invertible.

Semisimplicity of the categories of Yetter-Drinfeld modules and Long dimodules

Let $k$ be a field, and $H$ a Hopf algebra with bijective antipode. If $H$ is commutative, noetherian, semisimple and cosemisimple, then the category ${}_{H}{\mathcal {YD}}^H$ of Yetter-Drinfeld modules is semisimple. We also prove a similar statement for the category of Long dimodules, without the assumption that $H$ is commutative.

Integrals for (dual) quasi-Hopf algebras. Applications

A classical result in the theory of Hopf algebras concerns the uniqueness and existence of integrals: for an arbitrary Hopf algebra, the integral space has dimension $\leq 1$, and for a finite dimensional Hopf algebra, this dimension is exaclty one. We generalize these results to quasi-Hopf algebras and dual quasi-Hopf algebras. In particular, it will follow that the bijectivity of the antipode follows from the other axioms of a finite dimensional quasi-Hopf algebra. We give a new version of the Fundamental Theorem for quasi-Hopf algebras. We show that a dual quasi-Hopf algebra is co-Frobenius if and only if it has a non-zero integral. In this case, the space of left or right integrals has dimension one.

Projectivity of a relative Hopf module over the subring of coinvariants

Let $k$ be a commutative ring, $H$ a faithfully flat Hopf algebra with bijective antipode, $A$ a $k$-flat right $H$-comodule algebra. We investigate when a relative Hopf module is projective over the subring of coinvariants $B=A^{{\rm co}H}$, and we study the semisimplicity of the category of relative Hopf modules.

Separable bimodules and approximation

Using approximations, we give several characterizations of separability of bimodules. We also discuss how separability properties can be used to transfer some representation theoretic properties from one ring to another one: contravariant finiteness of the subcategory of (finitely generated) left modules with finite projective dimension, finitistic dimension, finite representation type, Auslander algebra, tame or wild representation type.

Morita Theory for corings and cleft entwining structures

Using the theory of corings, we generalize and unify Morita contexts introduced by Chase and Sweedler, Doi, and Cohen, Fischman and Montgomery. We discuss when the contexts are strict. We apply our theory corings arising from entwining structures, and this leads us to the notion of cleft entwining structure.

Maschke functors, semisimple functors and separable functors of the second kind. Applications

We introduce separable functors of the second kind (or $H$-separable functors) and $H$-Maschke functors. $H$-separable functors are generalizations of separable functors. Various necessary and sufficient conditions for a functor to be $H$-separable or $H$-Maschke, in terms of generalized (co)Casimir elements (integrals, in the case of Hopf algebras), are given. An $H$-separable functor is always $H$-Maschke, but the converse holds in particular situations. A special role will be played by Frobenius functors and their relations to $H$-separability. Our concepts are applied to modules, comodules, entwined modules, quantum Yetter-Drinfeld modules, relative Hopf modules.

Are biseparable extensions Frobenius?

In Secion~1 we describe what is known of the extent to which a separable extension of unital associative rings is a Frobenius extension. A problem of this kind is suggested by asking if three algebraic axioms for finite Jones index subfactors are dependent. In Section~2 the problem in the title is formulated in terms of separable bimodules. In Section~3 we specialize the problem to ring extensions, noting that a biseparable extension is a two-sided finitely generated projective, split, separable extension. Some reductions of the problem are discussed and solutions in special cases are provided. In Section~4 various examples are provided of projective separable extensions that are neither finitely generated nor Frobenius and which give obstructions to weakening the hypotheses of the question in the title. We show in Section~5 that existing characterizations of the separable extensions among the Frobenius extensions in are special cases of a result for adjoint functors.

On gradings of matrix algebras and descent theory

We classify gradings on matrix algebras by a finite abelian group. A grading is called good if all elementary matrices are homogeneous. For cyclic groups, all gradings on a matrix algebra over an algebraically closed field are good. We can count the number of good gradings by a cyclic group. Using descent theory, we classify non-good gradings on a matrix algebra that become good after a base extension.
