چکیده

The construction of link polynomials associated with finite dimensional representations of ribbon quasi-Hopf algebra is discussed in terms of the formulation of an appropriate Markov trace. We then show that this Markov trace is invariant under twisting of the quasi-Hopf structure, which in turn implies twisting invariance of the associated link polynomials.

On Group Theoretical Hopf Algebras and Exact Factorizations of Finite Groups

We show that a semisimple Hopf algebra A is group theoretical if and only if its Drinfeld double is a twisting of the Dijkgraaf-Pasquier-Roche quasi-Hopf algebra D(Σ), for some finite group Σ and some ω ∈ Z(Σ, k×). We show that semisimple Hopf algebras obtained as bicrossed products from an exact factorization of a finite group Σ are group theoretical. We also describe their Drinfeld double as ...

Cohomological Dimensions of Universal Cosovereign Hopf Algebras

We compute the Hochschild and Gerstenhaber-Schack cohomological dimensions of the universal cosovereign Hopf algebras, when the matrix of parameters is a generic asymmetry. Our main tools are considerations on the cohomologies of free product of Hopf algebras, and on the invariance of the cohomological dimensions under graded twisting by a finite abelian group.

A Class of Quantum Doubles Which Are Ribbon Algebras

Andruskiewitsch and Schneider classify a large class of pointed Hopf algebras with abelian coradical. The quantum double of each such Hopf algebra is investigated. The quantum doubles of a family of Hopf algebras from the above classification are ribbon Hopf algebras. Introduction Quasitriangular Hopf algebras have an universal R-matrix which is a solution of the Yang-Baxter equation and their ...

Adjunctions between Hom and Tensor as endofunctors of (bi-) module category of comodule algebras over a quasi-Hopf algebra.

For a Hopf algebra H over a commutative ring k and a left H-module V, the tensor endofunctors V k - and - kV are left adjoint to some kinds of  Hom-endofunctors of _HM. The units and counits of these adjunctions are formally trivial as in the classical case.The category of (bi-) modules over a quasi-Hopf algebra is monoidal and some generalized versions of  Hom-tensor relations have been st...

Quasi-Hopf Superalgebras and Elliptic Quantum Supergroups

We introduce the quasi-Hopf superalgebras which are Z2 graded versions of Drinfeld’s quasi-Hopf algebras. We describe the realization of elliptic quantum supergroups as quasi-triangular quasi-Hopf superalgebras obtained from twisting the normal quantum supergroups by twistors which satisfy the graded shifted cocycle condition, thus generalizing the quasi-Hopf twisting procedure to the supersymm...
