Yetter-Drinfeld modules over bosonizations of dually paired Hopf algebras. (Q2437415): Difference between revisions

Let \(H\) be a Hopf algebra with bijective antipode over a field \(\Bbbk\). The authors consider dual pairs \((R^\vee,R)\) of Hopf algebras in the braided monoidal category \(_H^H\mathcal{YD}\) of (left-left) Yetter-Drinfeld modules over \(H\). One of the main results of the paper establishes a braided monoidal isomorphism \(_{R\#H}^{R\#H}\mathcal{YD}_{\mathrm{rat}}\to{_{R^\vee\#H}^{R^\vee\#H}\mathcal{YD}}_{\text{rat}}\). Here \(_{R\#H}^{R\#H}\mathcal{YD}_{\mathrm{rat}}\) denotes the category of Yetter-Drinfeld modules over the Radford-Majid bosonization \(R\#H\) of \(R\) by \(H\) which are rational as left \(R\)-modules. This result is applied in the case when \(R\) is a Nichols algebra \(\mathcal B(M)\), in order to provide an alternative approach to the definition of the Weyl groupoid of \(M\in{_H^H\mathcal{YD}}\), for \(M\) semisimple, which is an important combinatorial invariant involved in the classification of pointed Hopf algebras.
