The category of graded, bicommutative Hopf algebras over the prime eld with p elements is an abelian category which is equivalent, by work of Schoeller, to a category of graded modules, known as Dieudonn e modules. Graded ring objects in Hopf algebras are called Hopf rings, and they arise in the study of unstable cohomology operations for extraordinary cohomology theories. The central point of ...

In this paper, we define the higher Frobenius-Schur (FS-)indicators for finite-dimensional modules of a semisimple quasi-Hopf algebra H via the categorical counterpart developed in a 2005 preprint. When H is an ordinary Hopf algebra, we show that our definition coincides with that introduced by Kashina, Sommerhäuser, and Zhu. We find a sequence of gauge invariant central elements of H such that...

The purpose of this paper is to develop a theory of bimonads and Hopf monads on arbitrary categories thus providing the possibility to transfer the essentials of the theory of Hopf algebras in vector spaces to more general settings. There are several extensions of this theory to monoidal categories which in a certain sense follow the classical trace. Here we do not pose any conditions on our ba...

We provide an analog of Tannaka Theory for Hopf algebras in the context of crossed Hopf group coalgebras introduced by Turaev. Following Street and our previous work on the quantum double of crossed structures, we give a construction, via Tannaka Theory, of the quantum double of crossed Hopf group algebras (not necessarily of finite type).

An explicit general formula is proposed for controlling Hopf bifurcation using state feedback. This method can be used to either delay (or even eliminate) an existing Hopf bifurcation or change a subcritical Hopf bifurcation to supercritical. The Lorenz system is used to illustrate the application of the formula.

Let D(H) be the quantum double associated to a finite dimensional quasi-Hopf algebra H, as in [9] and [10]. In this note, we first generalize a result of Majid [15] for Hopf algebras, and then prove that the quantum double of a finite dimensional quasitriangular quasi-Hopf algebra is a biproduct in the sense of [4].

We give the classification of (co-)path Hopf algebras and semi-path Hopf algebras with pointed module structures. This leads to the classification of multiple crown algebras and multiple Taft algebras as well as kG-Yetter-Drinfeld modules and Nichols algebras with pointed module structures. Moreover, we characterize quantum enveloping algebras in terms of semi-path Hopf algebras. 2000 Mathemati...
