Abstract: The classical Frobenius-Schur indicators for finite groups are character sums defined for any representation and any integer m greater or equal to 2. In the familiar case m=2, the Frobenius-Schur indicator partitions the irreducible representations over the complex numbers into real, complex, and quaternionic representations. In recent years, several generalizations of these invariants have been introduced. Bump and Ginzburg, building on earlier work of Mackey, have defined versions of these indicators which are twisted by an automorphism of the group. In another direction, Linchenko and Montgomery have defined Frobenius-Schur indicators for semisimple Hopf algebras. In this paper, the authors construct twisted Frobenius-Schur indicators for semisimple Hopf algebras; these include all of the above indicators as special cases and have similar properties.

Review text

Let \(H\) be a semisimple Hopf algebra over an algebraically closed field of characteristic \(0\), with normalized two-sided integral \(\Lambda\). Let \(\tau\) be a Hopf algebra automorphism of \(H\), and assume that \(\tau^m\) is the identity. For an \(H\)-module \(V\), with corresponding character \(\chi\), the \(m\)-th twisted Frobenius-Schur indicator of \(\chi\) is defined by the formula NEWLINE\[NEWLINE\nu_m(\chi,\tau)=\chi(\Lambda_{(1)}\tau(\Lambda_{(2)})\cdots\tau^{m-1}(\Lambda_{(m)})).NEWLINE\]NEWLINE In the case where \(\tau\) is the identity, we recover the Frobenius-Schur indicator introduced by \textit{V. Linchenko} and \textit{S. Montgomery}, [Algebr. Represent. Theory 3, No. 4, 347-355 (2000; Zbl 0971.16018)]. In the case where \(H=kG\) is a group algebra, we recover the twisted Frobenius-Schur indicator introduced by \textit{D. Bump} and \textit{D. Ginzburg}, [J. Algebra 278, No. 1, 294-313 (2004; Zbl 1053.20006)].NEWLINENEWLINE The main results of the paper are the following. \(\nu_m(\chi,\tau)\) can be realized as the trace of an endomorphism of order \(m\) (Theorem 3.5). The second twisted Frobenius-Schur indicator is always an element of \(\{-1,0,1\}\), and it can be characterized when it amounts of each of these three values (Theorem 4.3). Finally, an explicit formula for the twisted Frobenius-Schur indicator of the regular representation is given, see Theorem 5.1.
