On the Structure of Cofree Hopf Algebras

The Hopf Algebras of Symmetric Functions and Quasisymmetric Functions in Non-commutative Variables Are Free and Cofree

We uncover the structure of the space of symmetric functions in non-commutative variables by showing that the underlined Hopf algebra is both free and co-free. We also introduce the Hopf algebra of quasi-symmetric functions in non-commutative variables and define the product and coproduct on the monomial basis of this space and show that this Hopf algebra is free and cofree. In the process of l...

On the cyclic Homology of multiplier Hopf algebras

In this paper, we will study the theory of cyclic homology for regular multiplier Hopf algebras. We associate a cyclic module to a triple $(mathcal{R},mathcal{H},mathcal{X})$ consisting of a regular multiplier Hopf algebra $mathcal{H}$, a left $mathcal{H}$-comodule algebra $mathcal{R}$, and a unital left $mathcal{H}$-module $mathcal{X}$ which is also a unital algebra. First, we construct a para...

Cocommutative Hopf Algebras of Permutations and Trees

Consider the coradical filtration of the Hopf algebras of planar binary trees of Loday and Ronco and of permutations of Malvenuto and Reutenauer. We show that the associated graded Hopf algebras are dual to the cocommutative Hopf algebras introduced in the late 1980’s by Grossman and Larson. These Hopf algebras are constructed from ordered trees and heap-ordered trees, respectively. We also sho...
