In the Milnor and Moore paper, "On the structure of Hopf algebras" proposition 1.7 said the following:
- $A$ a connected $K$-algebra.
- $N$ a left $A$ module that is connected as a $K$-graded module i.e. there is an isomorphism $\eta_N:K\to N_0$ which results in an augmentation $\varepsilon_N:N\to K$.
- $C=K\otimes_A N$, here $K$ is considered as $A$-rightmodule by the action $K\otimes A \xrightarrow{\cong} A \xrightarrow{\varepsilon_A} K$.
- $\Delta :N \to N\otimes C$ a morphism of left $A$ modules.
- $\pi:N\to C$ the canonical epimorphism. Let $f:C\to N$ such that $\pi f = \operatorname{id}_C$. In this paper they used $C$ the object letter to indicate the identity morphism.
- $(\varepsilon_N\otimes C)\circ \Delta =f$$(\varepsilon_N\otimes C)\circ \Delta =\pi$.
- $(N\otimes \varepsilon_C)\circ \Delta = N$.
- $A\otimes C \xrightarrow{i\otimes C} N\otimes C $ is a monomorphism.
If $\tilde{f}$ is the composition $$A\otimes C \xrightarrow{A\otimes f} A \otimes N \xrightarrow{\varphi_N} N$$ then $\tilde f$ is an isomorphism.
The map $i$ is defined as the composition $$A\xrightarrow{\cong} A\otimes K \xrightarrow{A\otimes \eta_N} A\otimes N \xrightarrow{\varphi_N} N$$ and $\varphi_N$ is the left action of $A$ on $N$.
My first question: in the process to show that $\tilde{f}$ is a monomorphism, they showed $\Delta \tilde{f}$ is a monomorphism.
They define a filtration on $$F_p(A\otimes C) = \sum_{q\geq p} A\otimes C_q \text{ and } F_p(N\otimes C) = \sum_{q\geq p} N\otimes C_q$$$$F_p(A\otimes C) = \sum_{q\leq p} A\otimes C_q \text{ and } F_p(N\otimes C) = \sum_{q\leq p} N\otimes C_q$$ Then they said: "let $E^0 (A\otimes C)$ be the associated bigraded module." Is this the grading associated with the filtration i.e. $\operatorname{gr}_p(A\otimes C) = F_p/F_{p-1}$? Or it is just the grading on $A$ and $C$ as $K$-modules? I guess it is the second since they said $E^0_{p,q} (A\otimes C) = A_p \otimes C_q$.
After that they said we identify $E^0(A\otimes C)$ with $A\otimes C$. Then why did they introduce the $E^0$?
Second question: How come the two following morphisms are the same:
$$A\otimes C \xrightarrow{A\otimes f} A\otimes N \xrightarrow{\varphi_N} N\to_{\Delta} N\otimes C$$
and $i\otimes C$ which is
$$A\otimes C \xrightarrow{\cong\otimes C } A\otimes K\otimes C \xrightarrow{A\otimes \eta_N\otimes C } A\otimes N \otimes C \xrightarrow{\varphi_N} N\otimes C. $$
