About the classification of commutative and of cocommutative, fin. dim. Hopf algebras

I want to prove that the cocommutative finite dimensional Hopf algebras over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero are group algebras (for some finite group) and that the commutative f....

On a dual of Kaplansky's $2^{nd}$ conjecture: admissible algebras?

Kaplansky's second conjecture (on Hopf algebras) deals with "admissible" coalgebras: He calls a coalgebra admissible, if there is an algebra structure making it a Hopf algebra. The conjecture states ...

Low dimensional noncommutative non-cocommutative Hopf algebras

Sweedler's Hopf algebra (see here) is the lowest dimesnional ($4$-dimensional) Hopf algebra that is noncommutative and non-cocommutative. What are the next examples? Are there noncommutative, ...

Name for a Hopf algebra whose only grouplike element is the identity?

For a $k$-Hopf algebra $H$ and element $h \in H$ is called grouplike is $\Delta(h) = h \otimes h$ and $\epsilon(h)=1_k$ ($\epsilon$ is the counit). The identity $1_H$ is clearly grouplike, but in ...
