Cocommutative Hopf Algebras 19 with Antipode by Moss Eisenberg Sweedler Submitted to the Department of Mathematics on August 31, 1965, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Abstract In the first chapter the preliminaries of the theory of Hopf algebras are presented. The notion and properties of the antipode are developed. An important filtration is induced in the Hopf algebra by its dual when the Hopf algebra is split. It is shown conilpotence and an algebraically closed field insure a Hopf algebra is split. The monoid of grouplike elements is studied. In the second chapter conditions for an algebra A -which is a comodule for a Hopf algebra H --to be of the form A 'E B ® H (linear isomorphism) are given. The dual situation is studied. The graded Hopf algebra associated with a split Hopf algebra decomposes in the above manner. Chapter III contains the cohomology theory of a commutative algebra which is a module for a cocommutative Hopf algebra. There is extension theory and specialization to the situation the Hopf algebra is a group algebra. Chapter IV is dual to chapter III. Chapter V is devoted to coconnected cocommutative Hopf algebras, mostly in characteristic p > 0 . There, the notion of divided powers is developed and shown to characterize the coalgebra structure of a class of Hopf algebras. The Hopf algebras are shown to be extensions of certain sub Hopf algebras by their primitive elements. Thesis Supervisor: Title: Bertram Kostant Professor of Mathematics 3.

This differs from the graded Hopf algebras of [2] Milnor and Moore, except in characteristic 2. The problem is to determine the structure of cocommutative Hopf algebras. Our first approach lies in a cohomology theory. We have constructed abelian cohomology groups Hi(HA) , where H "C.H.A." H(CH)i is a Hopf algebra, H-module, H-comodule. C 0 < i E Z , A an algebra which is a left a coalgebra which is a right "C.H.A." We then determine the structures of algebras (coalgebras) which are extensions of H (C) by B (H) This theory applies to the algebra structure and the coalgebra structure--separately--of coconnected cocommutative Hopf algebras. We hope to develop an extension theory where the extension is a Hopf algebra and is an extension of one Hopf algebra by another. Our cohomology theory gives the familiar group cohomology in case G . If Ar H =p-(G) the group algebra of the group is the group of regular (invertible) elements 5. of A then Hi(H,A) Furthermore, if underlying field A Hi(G,Ar) = is a finite Galois extension of the k and G is the Galois group of then the isomorphism classes of extensions of by A A/k H =F(G) form a subgroup of the Brauer Group. Kostant has shown--the results are unpublished--that a split cocommutative Hopf algebra with antipode is a smash product of a group algebra and a coconnected cocommutative Hoof algebra; and that in characteristic zero a coconnected cocommutative Hopf algebra is a universal enveloping algebra of the Lie algebra of primitive elements. We present proofs of these results and study coconnected cocommutative Hopf algebras in characteristic- p > 0 . For a cer- tain class (including all where the restricted Lie algebra of primitive elements is finite dimensional) of coconnected cocommutative Hopf algebras we are able to determine the coalgebra structure. The coalgebra structure is described in a generalization of the Poincare-Birkhoff-Witt theorem. We now outline the generalization. In characteristic zero let for the Lie algebra algebra, L , a Hopf algebra. I= LC U (x be an ordered basis its universal enveloping If i = 0,1,2,... 6. then dx( = z i=o x2=0n The Poincare-Birkhoff-Witt theorem is equivalent to: a i) x - a <--m x = mi O < e forms a basis for a 0, E Z U In any characteristic we say xo, xlV x2,9..... n . is a sequence of divided powers if n dx xn=Zx.® 1=0 1& n-i We show how ordered products of divided powers--as in i)-- form a basis for the certain class of coconnected cocommutative Hopf algebras. For all coconnected cocommutative Hopf algebras in characteristic p > 0 , we show the Hopf algebra obtained by factoring out the ideal generated by the primitive elements is isomorphic to a sub Hopf algebra of the original Hopf algebra, when the vector space structure on the quotient is altered. We also show the original Hopf algebra is an extension--as an algebra and coalgebra--of the quotient by the primitively generated sub Hopf algebra. Chapter I The study of Hopf algebras is a self-dual theory. For this reason diagram notation is useful, as it makes dual definitions and proofs evident. For all time we fix the field for all vector spaces. over k , n If k which is the base X1 ,...,Xn are vector spaces the permutation group on a e n-letters we consider a: Often a Xe - X -> x1@ -0 -@ x0 ->x. will be written i ,...1 X (1 ,... ... ex .

If X, Y are vector spaces a linear map from X to "f: X -Y" means f is Y Once we define a "right" object such as module or comodule, we consider the "left" object to be defined with the mirror definition. Similarly for "left" objects. 8. Algebras (A,m,-q) space over k is an algebra (over k) where , m: A @ A -+ A T: A is a vector k -+ A , if the follow- ing diagrams are commutative.

Extensions being isomorphic is an equivalence relation and we can form the isomorphism classes of extensions. Examples of Extensions, the Smash Product We now define the smash product for an algebra which is a left H.A. H-module. When the algebra is a left C.H.A. H-module the smash product is an extension whose isomorphism class corresponds to the identity. In a sense all other 64. extensions are isomorphic to a smash product "altered" by a 2-cocycle. 4: H @ B -+ B H-module.

Q.E.D. Theorem 3: When H has an antipode there is a natural correspondence between the isomorphism classes of extensions and e s H (H,B) H (HB) . Under this correspondence corresponds to the smash product B 0 H 8o. By lemmas 1, 2 there is a natural bijective Proof: correspondence between H2(H,B) and those isomorphism f classes containing an extension of the form B Q H , by lemma 3 all isomorphism classes are included. Since the smash product is B @ H the last statement holds. Q.E.D. Suppose H = 7(G) B where is a finite Galois extension of G is the Galois group. B k and is an H.A. H-module where the structure is induced by G . Then exf tensions of the form B (D H are central simple algebras over k . This is treated in [1] , Rings with Minimum Condition, under the name "crossed products". Their notion of "factor set" is precisely our 2-cocycle. Since f B @ H is central simple, and since the extensions equif valent to B ® H are isomorphic as algebras; they are algebras in the same class--element--in the Brauer Group. That distinct classes of extensions correspond to distinct elements of the Brauer Group follows from their Corollary 8.50 which says the classes of extensions correspond to those elements of the Brauer Group with splitting field The smash product -B B E ®H is a total matrix algebra (over k), this is their Corollary 8.4G. In the Brauer Group the multiplication corresponds to the tensor product of algebras, we give a method for 81. forming the product of two extensions so the correspondence 3 of theorem Let is a group isomorphism.

(We assume familiarity with univer- sal enveloping algebras and restricted universal enveloping algebras as can be found in [2] Lie Algebras.) We define divided powers as sequences of elements 1 = I 0 '2l'''' N n n < N din = Z and show that in a i=0 class of cocommutative split Hopf algebras H , where where for G(H) = [1 the coalgebra structure of H is characterized by divided powers.
