Rota–Baxter Operators on Cocommutative Weak Hopf Algebras

In this paper, we first introduce the concept of a Rota–Baxter operator on a cocommutative weak Hopf algebra H and give some examples. We then construct Rota–Baxter operators from the normalized integral, antipode, and target map of H. Moreover, we construct a new multiplication “∗” and an antipode SB from a Rota–Baxter operator B on H such that HB=(H,∗,η,Δ,ε,SB) becomes a new weak Hopf algebra. Finally, all Rota–Baxter operators on a weak Hopf algebra of a matrix algebra are given.

Weak Hopf Algebra and Its Quiver Representation

This study induced a weak Hopf algebra from the path coalgebra of a weak Hopf quiver. Moreover, it gave a quiver representation of the said algebra which gives rise to the various structures of the so-called weak Hopf algebra through the quiver. Furthermore, it also showed the canonical representation for each weak Hopf quiver. It was further observed that a Cayley digraph of a Clifford monoid can be embedded in its corresponding weak Hopf quiver of a Clifford monoid. This lead to the development of the foundation structures of weak Hopf algebra. Such quiver representation is useful for the classification of its path coalgebra. Additionally, some structures of module theory of algebra were also given. Such algebras can also be applied for obtaining the solutions of “quantum Yang–Baxter equation” that has many applications in the dynamical systems for finding interesting results.

Weak Multiplier Hopf Algebras II: The Source and Target Algebras

Let $(A,\Delta)$ be a {\it weak multiplier Hopf algebra} as introduced in [VD-W3] (see also [VD-W2]). It is a pair of a non-degenerate algebra $A$, with or without identity, and a coproduct $\Delta$ on $A$, satisfying certain properties. If the algebra has an identity and the coproduct is unital, then we have a Hopf algebra. If the algebra has no identity, but if the coproduct is non-degenerate (which is the equivalent of being unital if the algebra has an identity), then the pair would be a multiplier Hopf algebra. If the algebra has an identity, but the coproduct is not unital, we have a weak Hopf algebra. In the general case, we neither assume $A$ to have an identity nor do we assume $\Delta$ to be non-degenerate and so we work with a {\it genuine} weak multiplier Hopf algebra. It is called {\it regular} if its antipode is a bijective map from $A$ to itself. \snl In this paper, we {\it continue the study of weak multiplier Hopf algebras}. We recall the notions of the source and target maps $\varepsilon_s$ and $\varepsilon_t$, as well as of the source and target algebras. Then we investigate these objects further. Among other things, we show that the canonical idempotent $E$ (which is eventually $\Delta(1)$) belongs to the multiplier algebra $M(B\ot C)$ where $B=\varepsilon_s(A)$ and $C=\varepsilon_t(A)$ and that it is a {\it separability idempotent} (as studied in [VD4.v2]). If the weak multiplier Hopf algebra is regular, then also $E$ is a {\it regular} separability idempotent. \snl We also consider {\it special cases and examples} in this paper. In particular, we see how for any weak multiplier Hopf algebra $(A,\Delta)$, it is possible to make $C\ot B$ (with $B$ and $C$ as above) into a new weak multiplier Hopf algebra. In a sense, it forgets the 'Hopf algebra part' of the original weak multiplier Hopf algebra and only remembers the source and target algebras. It is in turn generalized to the case of any pair of non-degenerate algebras $B$ and $C$ with a separability idempotent $E\in M(B\ot C)$. We get another example using this theory associated to any discrete quantum group (a multiplier Hopf algebra of discrete type with a normalized cointegral). Finally we also consider the well-known 'quantization' of the groupoid that comes from an action of a group on a set. All these constructions provide interesting new examples of weak multiplier Hopf algebras (that are not weak Hopf algebras).

Partial actions of weak Hopf algebras on coalgebras

In this work, the notions of a partial action of a weak Hopf algebra on a coalgebra and of a partial action of a groupoid on a coalgebra will be introduced, together with some important properties. An equivalence between these notions will be presented. Finally, a dual relation between the structures of a partial action on a coalgebra and of a partial action on an algebra will be established, as well as a globalization theorem for partial module coalgebras will be presented.

Maschke Type Theorems for Weak Hopf Quasigroups

In this paper we give necessary and sufficient conditions for a comodule magma over a weak Hopf quasigroup to have a total integral, thus extending the theories developed in the Hopf algebra, weak Hopf algebra and non-associative Hopf algebra contexts. From this result we also deduce a version of Maschke’s theorems for right (H, B)-Hopf triples associated to a weak Hopf quasigroup H and a right H-comodule magma B.

Comparison of two notions of weak crossed product

We compare the restriction to the context of weak Hopf algebras of the notion of crossed product with a Hopf algebroid introduced in [Cleft extensions of Hopf algebroids, Appl. Categor. Struct. 14(5–6) (2006) 431–469] with the notion of crossed product with a weak Hopf algebra introduced in [Crossed products for weak Hopf algebras with coalgebra splitting, J. Algebra 281(2) (2004) 731–752].

Rota-Baxter Leibniz Algebras and Their Constructions

In this paper, we introduce the concept of Rota-Baxter Leibniz algebras and explore two characterizations of Rota-Baxter Leibniz algebras. And we construct a number of Rota-Baxter Leibniz algebras from Leibniz algebras and associative algebras and discover some Rota-Baxter Leibniz algebras from augmented algebra, bialgebra, and weak Hopf algebra. In the end, we give all Rota-Baxter operators of weight 0 and -1 on solvable and nilpotent Leibniz algebras of dimension ≤3, respectively.

Inner actions of weak Hopf algebras

Let [Formula: see text] be an associative ring and [Formula: see text] idempotent elements of [Formula: see text]. In this paper we introduce the notion of [Formula: see text]-invertibility for an element of [Formula: see text] and use it to define inner actions of weak Hopf algebras. Given a weak Hopf algebra [Formula: see text] and an algebra [Formula: see text], we present sufficient conditions for [Formula: see text] to admit an inner action of [Formula: see text]. We also prove that if [Formula: see text] is a left [Formula: see text]-module algebra then [Formula: see text] acts innerly on the smash product [Formula: see text] if and only if [Formula: see text] is a quantum commutative weak Hopf algebra.
