چکیده
This paper provides motivation as well as a method of construction for Hopf algebras, starting from an associative algebra. The dualization technique involved relies heavily on the use of Sweedler’s dual.

Algebras and Hopf Algebras in Braided Categories
This is an introduction for algebraists to the theory of algebras and Hopf algebras in braided categories. Such objects generalise super-algebras and super-Hopf algebras, as well as colour-Lie algebras. Basic facts about braided categories C are recalled, the modules and comodules of Hopf algebras in such categories are studied, the notion of ‘braided-commutative’ or ‘braided-cocommutative’ Hop...
متن کاملNOTES ON REGULAR MULTIPLIER HOPF ALGEBRAS
In this paper, we associate canonically a precyclic mod- ule to a regular multiplier Hopf algebra endowed with a group-like projection and a modular pair in involution satisfying certain con- dition
متن کاملGorenstein global dimensions for Hopf algebra actions
Let $H$ be a Hopf algebra and $A$ an $H$-bimodule algebra. In this paper, we investigate Gorenstein global dimensions for Hopf algebras and twisted smash product algebras $Astar H$. Results from the literature are generalized.
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...
