    Let \(k\) be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. The authors prove that a semisimple Hopf algebra of dimension \(pq\) over \(k\), where \(p\) and \(q\) are primes, is either a group algebra or the dual of a group algebra. Previously known cases included dimensions \(2p\), \(3p\), \(5p\), \(7p\) and \(p^2\).
