✦ Synopsis
The construction of the Drinfeld double D H of a finite dimensional Hopf algebra H was one of the first examples of a quasitriangular Hopf algebra whose category of modules M M is braided. The braided category of Yetter᎐Drinfeld DŽ H . modules Y Y D D H is the analogue for infinite dimensional Hopf algebras. It uses a H strong dependence between the H-module and the H-comodule structures. We C Ž . generalize this construction to the category M M of entwined modules, that is, A A-modules and C-comodules over Hopf algebras A and C where the structures are C Ž . only related by an entwining map : C m A ª A m C. We show that M M is A braided iff there is an r-map r: C m C ª A m A satisfying suitable axioms that generalize the axioms of an R-matrix. For finite dimensional C there is a Ž . quasitriangular Hopf algebra structure on Hom C, A , the quantum group double, generalizing the construction of the Drinfeld double.

## Abstract In this paper, we study a special class of compact quantum groups, namely, the profinite quantum groups.
Let G be any discrete group. Consider the algebra A of all complex functions with finite support on G with pointwise operations. The multiplication on G Ž .Ž .

We present some results about the representation ring of the quantum double of a finite group over fields of arbitrary characteristic. We give a direct sum decomposition of this representation ring into ideals involving Green rings of subgroups. Given characters of such Green rings, we construct cha
