Piecewise principal comodule algebras

Abstract

A comodule algebra P over a Hopf algebra H with bijective antipode is called principal if the coaction of H is Galois and P is H-equivariantly projective (faithfully flat) over the coaction-invariant subalgebra B. We prove that principality is a piecewise property: given N comodule-algebra surjections P->Pi whose kernels intersect to zero, P is principal if and only if all Pi's are principal. Furthermore, assuming the principality of P, we show that the lattice these kernels generate is distributive if and only if so is the lattice obtained by intersection with B. Finally, assuming the above distributivity property, we obtain a flabby sheaf of principal comodule algebras over a certain space that is universal for all such N-families of surjections P->Pi and such that the comodule algebra of global sections is P.

Brunnian braids and the inclusion from double shuffle Lie algebra to Kashiwara-Vergne Lie algebra

Schneps \cite{Schneps2012,Schneps2025} and Enriquez-Furusho \cite{EF4} proved that the double shuffle Lie algebra $\mathfrak{dmr}_0$ embeds into the Kashiwara--Vergne Lie algebra $\mathfrak{krv}_2$. We give a Brunnian braid interpretation of a related embedding into the symmetric Kashiwara--Vergne Lie algebra $\mathfrak{krv}_2^{\mathrm{sym}}$. More precisely, the map \[ φ\longmapsto \bigl(φ(-x_0-x_1,x_0),φ(-x_0-x_1,x_1)\bigr) \] defines an injective Lie algebra homomorphism from the subalgebra of $\mathfrak{dmr}_0$ satisfying the condition \[ [x_0,φ(-x_0-x_1,x_0)] +[x_1,φ(-x_0-x_1,x_1)]=0 \] into $\mathfrak{krv}_2^{\mathrm{sym}}$. The proof reformulate the double shuffle and symmetric Kashiwara--Vergne relations through abelianizations of Brunnian Lie algebras associated with the disk and punctured disks. We generalize this inclusion in two directions. First, replacing these abelianizations by higher lower central series quotients yields generalizations of relations and implications among them. Second, we establish explicit identities relating the linear pentagon defect to the stuffle coproduct, the divergence map, and the necklace cobracket.

A $q$-Weyl Freeness Principle for Nichols Algebras and Pointed Hopf Algebras of Square-Free Dimension

Let $H$ be a pointed Hopf algebra of square-free dimension over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$. We prove that either $H$ is a group algebra or $\dim H/|\G(H)|=p$, and that in the latter case $H$ belongs to exactly one of two explicit families of rank-one pointed Hopf algebras. We develop a truncated $q$-Weyl freeness principle for finite-dimensional Nichols algebras of quandle type. If $V=\bigoplus_{x\in X}\K e_x$, $X'\subsetneq X$ is a nonempty subquandle, $V'=\bigoplus_{x\in X'}\K e_x$, and $s\in X\setminus X'$, then $\mathcal B(V)\simeq\K[e_s]/(e_s^{m_s})\otimes C_{s,X'}\otimes\mathcal B(V')$ for some graded vector space $C_{s,X'}$, where $m_s$ is the nilpotency order of $e_s$; in particular, $(m_s)_z\,\mathcal H_{\mathcal B(V')}(z)\mid\mathcal H_{\mathcal B(V)}(z)$. In the non-group case, this yields a $p^2$-divisibility obstruction that rules out noncentral support for the infinitesimal braiding. Together with a graded-dual argument, the resulting rank-one reduction forces the diagram of $H$ to have dimension $p$.
