Tate and Tate–Hochschild cohomology for finite dimensional Hopf algebras

Cohomology of Finite Dimensional Pointed Hopf Algebras

We prove finite generation of the cohomology ring of any finite dimensional pointed Hopf algebra, having abelian group of grouplike elements, under some mild restrictions on the group order. The proof uses the recent classification by Andruskiewitsch and Schneider of such Hopf algebras. Examples include all of Lusztig’s small quantum groups, whose cohomology was first computed explicitly by Gin...

Cohomology of Hopf Algebras

Group algebras are Hopf algebras, and their Hopf structure plays crucial roles in representation theory and cohomology of groups. A Hopf algebra is an algebra A (say over a field k) that has a comultiplication (∆ : A → A ⊗k A) generalizing the diagonal map on group elements, an augmentation (ε : A → k) generalizing the augmentation on a group algebra, and an antipode (S : A → A) generalizing th...

Cohomology of Hopf C-algebras and Hopf von Neumann algebras

We will define two canonical cohomology theories for Hopf C∗-algebras and for Hopf von Neumann algebras (with coefficients in their comodules). We will then study the situations when these cohomologies vanish. The cases of locally compact groups and compact quantum groups will be considered in more details. 1991 AMS Mathematics Classification number: Primary: 46L55, 46L05; Secondary: 43A07, 22D25

Finite Dimensional Pointed Hopf Algebras over S

Representations of Finite Dimensional Hopf Algebras

Let H denote a nite dimensional Hopf algebra with antipode S over a eld |. We give a new proof of the fact, due to Oberst and Schneider OS], that H is a symmetric algebra if and only if H is unimodular and S 2 is inner. If H is involutory and not semisimple, then the dimensions of all projective H-modules are shown to be divisible by char|. In the case where |is a splitting eld for H , we give ...
