✦ Synopsis


We prove that, over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, a semisimple Hopf algebra that has a nontrivial self-dual simple module must have even dimension. This generalizes a classical result of W. Burnside. As an application, we show under the same assumptions that a semisimple Hopf algebra that has a simple module of even dimension must itself have even dimension.

This paper makes a contribution to the problem of classifying finitedimensional semisimple Hopf algebras H over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic 0. Specifically, we show that if H has dimension pq for primes p and q, then H is trivial; that is, H is either a group algebra or the dua

For a finite dimensional semisimple cosemisimple Hopf algebra A and its dual Hopf algebra B, we set up a natural one-to-one correspondence between categories with actions of the monoidal categories of representations of A and of B. This gives a categorical interpretation of the duality for actions o

We show that if A is a semisimple Hopf algebra of dimension pq 2 over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic zero, then under certain restrictions either A or A \* must have a non-trivial central group-like element. We then classify all semisimple Hopf algebras of dimension pq 2 over k wh

Let H be a finite-dimensional Hopf algebra with antipode S of dimension pq over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0, where p q are odd primes. If H is not semisimple, then the order of S 4 is p, and Tr(S 2p ) is an integer divisible by p 2 . In particular, if dim H = p 2 , we prove tha
