Hopf algebras

Ribbon Hopf algebra

A ribbon Hopf algebra is a quasitriangular Hopf algebra which possess an invertible central element more commonly known as the ribbon element, such that the following conditions hold: where . Note that the element u exists for any quasitriangular Hopf algebra, and must always be central and satisfies , so that all that is required is that it have a central square root with the above properties. Here is a vector space is the multiplication map is the co-product map is the unit operator is the co-unit operator is the antipode is a universal R matrix We assume that the underlying field is If is finite-dimensional, one could equivalently call it ribbon Hopf if and only if its category of (say, left) modules is ribbon; if is finite-dimensional and quasi-triangular, then it is ribbon if and only if its category of (say, left) modules is pivotal.

TQFTs from non-semisimple modular categories and modified traces, Marco de Renzi, Lecture II

Lecture series on modified traces in algebra and topology Topological Quantum Field Theories (TQFTs for short) provide very sophisticated tools for the study of topology in dimension 2 and 3: they contain invariants of 3-manifolds that can be computed by cut-and-paste methods, and their e

Michael BORINSKY - The Euler Characteristic of Out(Fn) and the Hopf Algebra of Graphs

In their 1986 work, Harer and Zagier gave an expression for the Euler characteristic of the moduli space of curves, M_gn, or equivalently the mapping class group of a surface. Recently, in joint work with Karen Vogtmann, we performed a similar analysis for Out(Fn), the outer automorphism g
