DGLA related to the deformation of hopf Algebras
Recently I was considering Hopf algebras and Drinfeld's twists. I stumbled upon
a certain DGLA one can associate to a Hopf algebra (unital bialgebras actually) by copying the formulas obtained by ...

Does the tensor algebra $T(V)$ of $V$ isomorphic to the symmetric algebra of the free Lie algebra over $V$?
Let $V$ be a finite dimensional vector space. Let $T(V)$ be the tensor algebra over $V$.
Do we have $T(V) \cong S(Lie(V))$ as a graded vector space? Here $S(Lie(V))$ is the symmetric algebra of the ...

Is there a classical version of Yetter-Drinfeld modules?
One motivation for the notion of the Drinfeld double $D(H)$ of an Hopf algebra $H$ is that it is defined exactly so that modules over $D(H)$ correspond to Yetter-Drinfeld modules over $H$.
If we think ...
