A Note on Inner Actions of Hopf Algebras

The author discusses actions of a cocommutative faithfully projective Hopf algebra \(H\) on Azumaya and \(H\)-Azumaya algebras over a cocommutative ring \(R\). He introduces a new Hopf algebra \({\mathcal H}=\Hom_ R(H,H)\), and, working over the ground ring \(H^*\) (commutative if \(H\) is cocommutative), obtains by the classical Skolem-Noether theorem, that if \(\text{Pic}(H^*)=1\), then \(H\) acts innerly on any \(R\)-Azumaya algebra \(A\). (This result also appears without finiteness restriction in [\textit{A. Masuoka}, Tsukuba J. Math. 14, No. 1, 107-112 (1990; Zbl 0769.16007)].) If \(H\) is also commutative with \(\text{Pic}(H^*)=1\), and \(A\) is an \(H\)-Azumaya \(R\)-algebra, then for all \(h\in H\), \(a\in A\), \[ h\to a=\sum\mu^*(h_{(1)})(a_{(1)})u(h_{(2)})a_{(0)}v(h_{(3)}), \] for some convolution invertible \(u\in\Hom_ R(H,A)\) with convolution inverse \(v\) and \(\mu^*\in\Hom_{\text{bialg}}(H,H^*)\).
