چکیده
We analyze the structure of the Malvenuto-Reutenauer Hopf algebra of permutations in detail. We give explicit formulas for its antipode, prove that it is a cofree coalgebra, determine its primitive elements and its coradical filtration and show that it decomposes as a crossed product over the Hopf algebra of quasi-symmetric functions. We also describe the structure constants of the multiplication as a certain number of facets of the permutahedron. Our results reveal a close relationship between the structure of this Hopf algebra and the weak order on the symmetric groups. Résumé. On analyse la structure de l’algèbre de Hopf de Malvenuto et Reutenauer en détail. On donne des formules explicites pour son antipode, on prouve que c’est une coalgèbre colibre, on determine ses éléments primitifs et sa filtration coradical et on montre qu’elle se décompose comme un produit croisé sur l’algèbre de Hopf de fonctions quasi-symétriques. On decrit aussi les constants de structure de la multiplication comme un certain numéro de facettes du permutahedron. Nos résultats mettent en évidence une forte relation entre la structure de cette algèbre de Hopf et l’ordre faible dans les groupes symetriques.

The Hopf Algebra of Uniform Block Permutations. Extended Abstract
Abstract. We introduce the Hopf algebra of uniform block permutations and show that it is self-dual, free, and cofree. These results are closely related to the fact that uniform block permutations form a factorizable inverse monoid. This Hopf algebra contains the Hopf algebra of permutations of Malvenuto and Reutenauer and the Hopf algebra of symmetric functions in non-commuting variables of Ge...

متن کاملCombinatorial Realization of the Hopf Algebra of Sashes
A general lattice theoretic construction of Reading constructs Hopf subalgebras of the Malvenuto-Reutenauer Hopf algebra (MR) of permutations. The products and coproducts of these Hopf subalgebras are defined extrinsically in terms of the embedding in MR. The goal of this paper is to find an intrinsic combinatorial description of a particular one of these Hopf subalgebras. This Hopf algebra has...

متن کاملCocommutative 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...
