Vertex Coalgebras, Comodules, Cocommutativity and Coassociativity

چکیده
We introduce the notion of vertex coalgebra, a generalization of vertex operator coalgebras. Next we investigate forms of cocommutativity, coassociativity, skew-symmetry, and an endomorphism, D∗, which hold on vertex coalgebras. The former two properties require grading. We then discuss comodule structure. We conclude by discussing instances where graded vertex coalgebras appear, particularly as related to Primc’s vertex Lie algebra and (universal) enveloping vertex algebras.

The duality between vertex operator algebras and coalgebras, modules and comodules
We construct an equivalence between the categories of vertex operator algebras and vertex operator coalgebras. We then investigate to what degree weak modules, generalized modules and ordinary modules carry corresponding comodule structures, as well as when various comodules carry module structure.
متن کاملLocalization in Coalgebras. Applications to Finiteness Conditions
Let k be a field. Given two finite-dimensional right comodules N andM over a k–coalgebra C, the k–vector spaces ExtC(N,M) need not to be finite-dimensional. This is due to the fact that the injective right comodules appearing in the minimal injective resolution of M need not to be of finite dimension or even quasi-finite. The obstruction here is that factor comodules of quasi-finite comodules a...
متن کاملSemiperfect coalgebras over rings
Our investigation of coalgebras over commutative rings R is based on the close relationship between comodules over a coalgebra C and modules over the dual algebra C∗. If C is projective as an R-module the category of right C-comodules can be identified with the category σ[C∗C] of left C∗-modules which are subgenerated by C. In this context semiperfect coalgebras are described by results from mo...
متن کاملModule and Comodule Categories - a Survey
The theory of modules over associative algebras and the theory of comodules for coassociative coalgebras were developed fairly independently during the last decades. In this survey we display an intimate connection between these areas by the notion of categories subgenerated by an object. After a review of the relevant techniques in categories of left modules, applications to the bimodule struc...
متن کاملColby]Fuller Duality between Coalgebras
w x In 8 , K. Morita introduced a useful notion of duality between categories of modules, usually called ‘‘Morita duality.’’ He proved that every duality is given by contravariant hom functors defined by a bimodule which is an injective cogenerator for both categories of modules. On the other hand, the equivalences between categories of comodules over a coalgebra w x were characterized by M. Ta...
