Structure of the adjoint representation of a (finite) group (Hopf algebra) ?
Every group acts on itself by conjugation $h \mapsto g h g^{-1}$. Respectively considering functions on a group we obtain a linear representation.
Question 1: what is known about this representation ...

Are the symmetric groups integrable as Hopf algebras?
Let $G$ be a group. For $g,h \in G$, let $[g,h]=g^{-1}h^{-1}gh$ be a commutator. The normal subgroup $G' = \langle [g,h] \ | \ g,h \in G \rangle$ is called the commutator subgroup or derived subgroup. ...

Some quantities associated to finite dimensional Hopf algebras
let $(H,\Delta,m,s)$ be a Hopf algebra. To this Hopf algebra one can associate two obvious linear maps $T_H, S_H: H \to H $ with $T_H=m\circ \Delta,\quad S_H=s$.
Are there two finite dimensional ...

Orthogonal idempotents with sum equal to 1 in $k[G]$ span sub-Hopf algebra
Let $G$ be a finite group. Let $B$ be a set of orthogonal non-zero idempotents with $|B| \leq |G|$, s.t. $\sum_{b \in B}b =1_{kG}$. Is it known if $B$ spans a sub-Hopf algebra $kH \subseteq kG$?
