Pointed Hopf algebras over non abelian groups with decomposable braidings. I. (Q2292842)

The paper is a contribution to the study of the lifting method, introduced by \textit{N. Andruskiewitsch} and \textit{H.-J. Schneider} [J. Algebra 209, No. 2, 658--691 (1998; Zbl 0919.16027); Adv. Math. 154, No. 1, 1--45 (2000; Zbl 1007.16027)]. It starts with the computation of all liftings of Nichols algebras of Yetter-Drinfeld modules classified by \textit{I. Heckenberger} and \textit{L. Vendramin} [J. Eur. Math. Soc. (JEMS) 19, No. 7, 1977--2017 (2017; Zbl 1391.16036); J. Eur. Math. Soc. (JEMS) 19, No. 2, 299--356 (2017; Zbl 1396.16025)]. The authors fix a braiding (denoted HV1) which decomposes as the sum of two simple Yetter-Drinfeld modules, one related to the Fomin-Kirillov algebra over the symmetric group in three letters, and the other one of dimension one. A presentation by generators and relations of the Nchols algebra \(\mathcal{B}\)(HV1) is obtained. Next, an affirmative answer to the generation-in-degree-one problem (known as the Andruskiewitsch-Schneider conjecture) is given: the unique finite-dimensional post-Nichols algebra of HV1 is the Nichols algebra \(\mathcal{B}\)(HV1) itself. The main result of this paper gives an exhaustive list of all finite-dimensional pointed Hopf algebras whose group of group-like elements is a group \(\Gamma\) such that HV1 admits a principal realization over \(\Gamma\).
