Tannaka Reconstruction of Weak Hopf Algebras in Arbitrary Monoidal Categories
نویسنده
چکیده
We introduce a variant on the graphical calculus of Cockett and Seely[2] for monoidal functors and illustrate it with a discussion of Tannaka reconstruction, some of which is known and some of which is new. The new portion is: given a separable Frobenius functor F : A −→ B from a monoidal category A to a suitably complete or cocomplete braided autonomous category B, the usual formula for Tannaka reconstruction gives a weak bialgebra in B; if, moreover, A is autonomous, this weak bialgebra is in fact a weak Hopf algebra.

Graphical Methods for Tannaka Duality of Weak Bialgebras and Weak Hopf Algebras
Tannaka duality describes the relationship between algebraic objects in a given category and functors into that category; an important case is that of Hopf algebras and their categories of representations; these have strong monoidal forgetful “fibre functors” to the category of vector spaces. We simultaneously generalize the theory of Tannaka duality in two ways: first, we replace Hopf algebras...
متن کاملHopf Algebra Extensions and Monoidal Categories
Tannaka reconstruction provides a close link between monoidal categories and (quasi-)Hopf algebras. We discuss some applications of the ideas of Tannaka reconstruction to the theory of Hopf algebra extensions, based on the following construction: For certain inclusions of a Hopf algebra into a coquasibialgebra one can consider a natural monoidal category consisting of Hopf modules, and one can ...
متن کاملHopf Algebras—variant Notions and Reconstruction Theorems
Hopf algebras are closely related to monoidal categories. More precise, k-Hopf algebras can be characterized as those algebras whose category of finite dimensional representations is an autonomous monoidal category such that the forgetful functor to k-vectorspaces is a strict monoidal functor. This result is known as the Tannaka reconstruction theorem (for Hopf algebras). Because of the importa...
متن کاملTannaka–Krěın reconstruction and a characterization of modular tensor categories
We show that every modular category is equivalent as an additive ribbon category to the category of finite-dimensional comodules of a Weak Hopf Algebra. This Weak Hopf Algebra is finite-dimensional, split cosemisimple, weakly cofactorizable, coribbon and has trivially intersecting base algebras. In order to arrive at this characterization of modular categories, we develop a generalization of Ta...
متن کامل2 00 6 Bar categories and star operations
We introduce the notion of 'bar category' by which we mean a monoidal category equipped with additional structure induced by complex conjugation. Examples of our theory include bimodules over a *-algebra, modules over a conventional Hopf *-algebra and modules over a more general object which call a 'quasi-*-Hopf algebra' and for which examples include the standard quantum groups u q (g) at q a ...
