Hall Algebras as Hopf Objects
نویسنده
چکیده
One problematic feature of Hall algebras is the fact that the standard multiplication and comultiplication maps do not satisfy the bialgebra compatibility condition in the underlying symmetric monoidal category Vect. In the past this problem has been resolved by working with a weaker structure called a ‘twisted’ bialgebra. In this paper we solve the problem differently by first switching to a different underlying category Vect of vector spaces graded by a group K called the Grothendieck group. We equip this category with a nontrivial braiding which depends on the Kgrading. With this braiding, we find that the Hall algebra does satisfy the bialgebra condition exactly for the standard multiplication and comultiplication, and can also be equipped with an antipode, making it a Hopf algebra object in Vect .

The Hopf Algebra of Skew Shapes, Torsion Sheaves on A/f1 , and Ideals in Hall Algebras of Monoid Representations
We study ideals in Hall algebras of monoid representations on pointed sets corresponding to certain conditions on the representations. These conditions include the property that the monoid act via partial permutations, that the representation possess a compatible grading, and conditions on the support of the module. Quotients by these ideals lead to combinatorial Hopf algebras which can be inte...
متن کاملAdjunctions 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...

We construct symmetric monoidal categoriesLRF ,LFG of rooted forests and Feynman graphs. These categories closely resemble finitary abelian categories, and in particular, the notion of Ringel-Hall algebra applies. The Ringel-Hall Hopf algebras of LRF ,LFG, HLRF ,HLFG are dual to the corresponding Connes-Kreimer Hopf algebras on rooted trees and Feynman diagrams. We thus obtain an interpretation...
