Constructing pointed Hopf algebras by Ore extensions (Q1972420)

A general construction producing pointed co-Frobenius Hopf algebras is given, along with some classification results. This construction was used by the same authors to give a counterexample to Kaplansky's 10th conjecture [in the paper Invent. Math. 136, No. 1, 1-7 (1999; Zbl 0922.16021)]. It may also be noted that numerous previously studied examples of Hopf algebras are in fact Ore extensions.
