A Hopf algebra is a vector space $H$ over a field $k$ endowed with an associative product $\times:H\otimes_k H\to H$ and a coassociative coproduct $\Delta:H\to H\otimes_k H$ which is a morphism of algebras. Unit $1:k\to H$, counit $\epsilon:H\to k$ and antipode $S:H\to H$ are also required. Such a structure exists on the group algebra $k G$ of a finite group $G$.

Cartier-Kostant-Milnor-Moore theorem

The case of irreducible, cocommutative Hopf algebras, over a field with $char(k)> 0$, is discussed in Sweedler's textbook on Hopf algebras, Ch.$XIII$, sect. $13.2$. (See prop. $13.2.2$, $13.2.3$). …

Cocommutativity, comultiplication and coalgebra maps

Given a (coassociative and counital) coalgebra $(C,\Delta,\varepsilon)$, over a field $k$, we can form the tensor product coalgebra $(C\otimes C,\Delta_{C\otimes C},\varepsilon_{C\otimes C})$ through: …

Primitive elements in group hopf algebras over fields of non-zero characteristic

An element $x$ of a Hopf algebra $H$, is called a primitive element if $\Delta(x)=1\otimes x+x\otimes 1$. The set of primitive elements of $H$ is denoted $P(H)$. It can be shown that: "If $H$ is a $ …

Comodule Morita equivalence for Hopf algebras

There have been some classic papers, on the development of a Morita theory for equivalent Categories of comodules over coalgebras. I believe one of the oldest and most complete works, which develops t …

What are the primitive elements in a polynomial Hopf algebra with primitive indeterminates?

No, in general the claim is not true: To see why, consider a field $k$ of characteristic $p$ and take the polynomial hopf algebra $k[x]$ (in a single variable). Then $x$ is primitive and so is $x^p$ …

When is this map of Hopf algebras Surjective?

Some thoughts, regarding question (a): In the case of a pointed, cocommutative hopf algebra $H$ over a field $k$ of characteristic $0$, by the Cartier-Konstant-Milnor-Moore theorem (see: Classifica …

Hopf algebra kernels vs. algebra kernels

-too long for a comment- I am a little confused about the way terminology is used in the OP. Maybe i'm missing the point; in case i do not, the closest result i know of -quite general and does not ref …

Inner automorphisms of Hopf algebras

I am not sure if the following is the kind of answer you are expecting, but take the (left) adjoint action $(ad_l h)\triangleright k=\sum h_1 kS(h_2)$ of a hopf algebra $H$ on itself. (It is known tha …

Bialgebra maps and Hopf algebra maps

Yes it is. It is actually a standard result, for any hopf algebra, that under the circumstances you are describing any bialgebra map $\phi$ commutes with the antipode, i.e. we have: $$S_{H'}\circ \phi …

Cocommutativity, comultiplication and coalgebra maps

Given a coalgebra $(C,\Delta,\varepsilon)$, over a field, the following is a well-known property: the comultiplication $\Delta:C\to C\otimes C$ is a coalgebra map if and only if $C$ is cocommutat …

Up to date summary on semisimple Hopf algebra over $\mathbb{C}$

This is a question on an active area of research, with lots of work on it (for the general case of algebraically closed fields of char zero). It is historically and conceptually closely connected to K …

Commutative and Cocommutative Quantum Groups

If the definition of a finite quantum group, you use, is a pair $(A,\Phi)$ of a finite dimensional $C^*$-algebra $A$, with a comultiplication $\Phi$, such that $(A,\Phi)$ is a Hopf $*$-algebra, then t …
