This volume of articles arising from the MSRI workshop on Hopf Algebras in October 1999 forms a broad survey of this exciting field and its connection with quantum groups and related areas. Topics include pointed Hopf algebras, triangular Hopf algebras, Hopf algebra extensions and cohomology, quantum groups and groupoids, quantum symmetric pairs, monoidal categories, and the Brauer group of a Hopf algebra. The volume also includes an updated version of Mitsuhiro Takeuchi's article "A...
More DescriptionThis volume of articles arising from the MSRI workshop on Hopf Algebras in October 1999 forms a broad survey of this exciting field and its connection with quantum groups and related areas. Topics include pointed Hopf algebras, triangular Hopf algebras, Hopf algebra extensions and cohomology, quantum groups and groupoids, quantum symmetric pairs, monoidal categories, and the Brauer group of a Hopf algebra. The volume also includes an updated version of Mitsuhiro Takeuchi's article "A short course on quantum matrices", now a standard reference in the field.
