We introduce and start the study of a bialgebra of graphs, which we call the 4-bialgebra, and of the dual bialgebra of 4-invariants. The 4-bialgebra is similar to the ring of graphs introduced by W. T. Tutte in 1946, but its structure is more complicated. The roots of the definition are in low dimen

## Abstract This paper provides a primer in quantum field theory (QFT) based on Hopf algebra and describes new Hopf algebraic constructions inspired by QFT concepts. The following QFT concepts are introduced: chronological products, __S__ βmatrix, Feynman diagrams, connected diagrams, Green functio
We give an introduction to the theory of weak Hopf algebras proposed as a coassociati¨e alternative of weak quasi-Hopf algebras. We follow an axiomatic approach keeping as close as possible to the ''classical'' theory of Hopf algebras. The emphasis is put on the new structure related to the presence
