Abstract:Some sufficient and necessary conditions are given for the equivalence between two crossed product actions of Hopf algebra H on the same linear category, and the Maschke theorem is generalized. Based on the result of the crossed product in the classic Hopf algebra theory, first, let A be a k-linear category and H be a Hopf algebra, and the two crossed products A#σH and σ′H are isomorphic under some conditions. Then, let A#σH be a crossed product category for a finite dimensional and semisimple Hopf algebra H. If V is a left A#σH-module and W⊆V is a submodule such that W has a complement as a left A-module, then W has a complement as a A#σH-module.

Key words:linear category; inner action; crossed product; generalized Maschke theorem

Group-graded rings and algebras have been the study focus and several fundamental results have been obtained. Cohen and Montgomery[1]obtained the duality theorem for graded algebras. In this paper, the graded algebras are treated from the point of view of Hopf algebras. A G-graded algebra A can be viewed as a kG-comodule algebra, and thus can be viewed as a kG-module algebra when G is a finite group. In fact, the concept of graded algebras can be extended to linear categories, leading to group-graded k-linear categories. Similarly, if a k-linear category is graded by a finite group G, then it can be called a kG-module category. More generally, it is natural to define the concept of the module category for any Hopf algebra H, as done in Refs.[2-4].

As a continuation of the work in Ref.[5], we provide some sufficient and necessary conditions for the equivalence between two crossed product actions of Hopf algebra H on the same linear category,and generalize the Maschke theorem.

Throughout this paper, we work over field k, and all the vector spaces, algebras and tensor product are over k.

1 Preliminary

In this section, we recall the concept of the crossed product of a linear category with a Hopf algebra H. For the crossed product action of a Hopf algebra H on an algebra, one can refer to Refs.[6-7]. If A is a linear category and x,y are objects of A, we denote yAx the space Hom(x,y), and denote A0 the class of objects.

Definition 1 The weak action of a Hopf algebra H on a linear category A is defined by the map H⊗yAxyAx given by h⊗y fx|→h·y fx, for any x,y∈A0 and h∈H such that

h·(zgyy fx)=∑(h1·zgy)∘(h2·y fx)

h·1x=ε(h)1x, 1H·y fx=y fx

where y fxyAx,zgyzAy.

Definition 2 Let H be a Hopf algebra and A be a k-linear category. Assume the weak action of H on A and σ={σx}x∈A0Hom(H⊗H,A) with σxHom(H⊗H,xAx) convolution invertible. The crossed product A#σH of A with H is a category such that (A#σH)0=A0, and for any objects x, y and z, y(A#σH)x=yAx⊗H as a vector space. Therefore, the composition of morphisms is given by

(zgy#h)∘(y fx#k)=∑zgy∘(h1·y fx)∘σx(h2,k1)#h3k2

for any h, k∈H, zgyzAy,y fxyAx.

In what follows, we assume that the morphisms of all crossed product categories are associative with identity morphisms {1x#1H}x∈A0.

2 Equivalence Between Two Crossed Product Categories

Definition 3 Let H be a Hopf algebra and A be a k-linear category. Consider the crossed product A#σH. We call the action of H on A inner if there is a collection of maps u={ux}x∈A0 with uxHom(H,xAx) convolution invertible such that for any y fxyAx and h∈H,

(1)

The above equation has an equivalent form:

∑(h1·y fx)∘ux(h2)=∑uy(h)∘y fx

(2)

Proposition 1 Let A be a k-linear category and A#σH be the crossed product such that the action of H on A is inner, via some invertible u∈Hom(H, A). Define τ={τx}x∈A0Hom(H⊗H, A) by

(3)

Then τ is a cocycle and A#σH≅Aτ[H], a twisted product with trivial action and a category isomorphism which is also a left A-module, right H-comodule map.

Proof Define φ:A#σH→Aτ[H]by y fx#h→∑y fxux(h1)⊗h2. It is easy to confirm that φ is a left A-module and a right H-comodule map. Then define ψ:Aτ[H]→A#σH by y fx#h2.

It is straightforward to confirm that φ and φ are inverses. We show that φ is an algebra map. For any z fy,ygx in A, and h, k∈H,

φ[(z fy#h)(ygx##

z fy(h1·ygxx(h2,k1)ux(h3k2)⊗h4k3=

⊗h5k3=

z fyuy(h1)ygxux(k1x(h2,k2)⊗h3k3=

φ(z fy#h)φ(ygx#k)

Since Aτ[H]≅A#σH as categories, the composition in Aτ[H] is associative and τ is a cocycle.

Now we give some necessary and sufficient conditions for the two crossed products to be isomorphic.

Theorem 1 Let A be a k-linear category and H be a Hopf algebra with two crossed product actions h⊗y fx|→h·y fx and h⊗y fx|→h▷y fx with respect to two cocycles σ, σ′:H⊗H→A, respectively. Assume that

is an isomorphism of linear category, which is also a left A-module and a right H-comodule map. Then there is a collection of invertible maps u={ux}x∈A0Hom(H, A) such that for any y fxyAx, h, k∈H,

1) φ(y fx#h)=∑y fxux(h1)#′h2;

3) ).

Conversely given a collection of maps u={ux}x∈A0Hom(H, A) such that 2) and 3) hold, then the map φ in 1) is an isomorphism.

Proof Define uxHom(H, xAx) by ux(h)=(id⊗ε) φ(1x⊗h) for any h∈H. Then

(id⊗ε)φ(y fx#h)=   (id){(y fx⊗1)[φ(1x#h)]}=

y fx∘ux(h)

as φ is a left A-module map. Since φ is a right H-comodule map, we have

(id⊗Δ)∘φ=(φ⊗id)∘(id⊗Δ)

Apply id⊗ε⊗id to both sides of the equation. The left side becomes φ, and the right side becomes [(id⊗ε)∘φ⊗id]∘(id⊗Δ), which evaluated at y fx#h is

∑(id⊗ε)∘φ(y fx#h1)⊗h2=∑y fxux(h1)⊗h2

This proves 1).

#σ′H is an isomorphism satisfying the same hypotheses of φ, we may set vx(h)=(id⊗ε)φ-1(1x⊗h) and conclude as above that φ-1(y fx#′h)=∑y fxvx(h1)#h2. We claim that v=u-1.

1x#h=   φ-1φ(1x##

ux(h1)v(h2)#h3

Applying id⊗ε to both sides, we obtainux(h1)vx(h2)=ε(h)1x. Similarly we obtainvx(h1)ux(h2)=ε(h)1x, and thus v=u-1.

Now the equation φ-1[(zgy#′h)(y fx#′k)]=φ-1·(zgy#′h)φ-1(y fx#′k) becomes

#h4k3=

zgyvy[(h1)(h2·y fxvx(k1)]σx(h3,k2)#h4k3

Set x=y=z and f=g=1x, and apply id⊗ε to both sides, we obtain

This proves 3) after inverting vx(hk) and using v=u-1.

Again using the above equation with y=z, g=1z and k=1, and applying id⊗ε to both sides, we have

∑(h1y fx)vx(h2)=∑vy(h1)(h2·y fx)

Inverting v, we obtain 2).

The converse follows as in the proof of Proposition 1.

3 Generalized Maschke Theorem

Recall from Ref.[5] that for a crossed product category A#σH, the family of maps γx: H→xAx#σxH given by h|→1x#h is invertible in Hom(H,xAx#σxH). Then by the equation

(1y#h)(y fx#1)=∑(h1·f)#h2

denoting f=f#1, we have

(4)

for any h∈H and f∈yAx.

Recall Ref.[8], let A be a k-linear category. A left module over A is a family of linear spaces M={xM}x∈A0 together with the structure maps ·:yAxxM→yM satisfying

z fy·(ygx·m)=fg·m  1x·m=m

A morphism of the left A-module is a family of linear maps u={xu:xM→xN}x∈A0 satisfying

y u(f·m)=f·xu(m)

for an y f∈yAx and m∈xM.

Proposition 2 Let A#σH be a crossed product category for a finite dimensional, semisimple Hopf algebra H. If V∈A#σHM and W⊆V is a submodule such that W has a complement in AM, then W has a complement in A#σHM.

Proof Let π:V→W be an A-projection with πx:xV→xW.

for any x∈A0 and v∈xV.

First, for any f∈yAx and v∈xV

where the second identity uses Eq.(4), and the third identity is obtained by π being A-linear.

hΔ(t)=∑h1⊗Δ[(h2)]=∑h1t1h2t2h3

Then for any h∈H and v∈xV.

#σH-map.w. The proof is completed.

摘要:给出了Hopf代数与线性范畴2个不同交叉积之间等价的充要条件,并推广了Maschke定理.基于经典Hopf代数的方法,首先设A为k-线性范畴且H为Hopf代数,则2个交叉积A#σH与σ′H在某些条件下是同构的.其次设A#σH为有限维半单Hopf代数H的交叉积范畴.若V为左A#σH-模且W⊆V为V的子模,W作为左A-模在V中有补,则W作为左A#σH-模在V中有补.
