Inner actions of weak Hopf algebras

Abstract: Let

R

be an associative ring and

e, f

idempotent elements of

R

. In this paper we introduce the notion of

(e, f)

-invertibility for an element of

R

and use it to define inner actions of weak Hopf algebras. Given a weak Hopf algebra

H

and an algebra

A

, we present sufficient conditions for

A

to admit an inner action of

H

. We also prove that if

A

is a left

H

-module algebra then

H

acts innerly on the smash product

if and only if

H

is a quantum commutative weak Hopf algebra.
