| Jan 4, 2010 at 4:36 | comment | added | Theo Johnson-Freyd | In the usual statements of TK duality, the "category of representations" data consists of a (symmetric, etc.) category along with a faithful functor to VECT. See for example the paper "An introduction to Tannaka duality and quantum groups" by Ross and Street. | |

The same thing is true of the category of representations of any Hopf algebra. | |
