Epimorphic quantum subgroups and coalgebra codominions

Abstract

We prove a number of results concerning monomorphisms, epimorphisms, dominions and codominions in categories of coalgebras. Examples include: (a) representation-theoretic characterizations of monomorphisms in all of these categories that when the Hopf algebras in question are commutative specialize back to the familiar necessary and sufficient conditions (due to Bien-Borel) that a linear algebraic subgroup be epimorphically embedded; (b) the fact that a morphism in the category of (cocommutative) coalgebras, (cocommutative) bialgebras, and a host of categories of Hopf algebras has the same codominion in any of these categories which contain it; (c) the invariance of the Hopf algebra or bialgebra (co)dominion construction under field extension, again mimicking the well-known corresponding algebraic-group result; (d) the fact that surjections of coalgebras, bialgebras or Hopf algebras are regular epimorphisms (i.e. coequalizers) provided the codomain is cosemisimple; (e) in particular, the fact that embeddings of compact quantum groups are equalizers in the category thereof, generalizing analogous results on (plain) compact groups; (f) coalgebra-limit preservation results for scalar-extension functors (e.g. extending scalars along a field extension $\Bbbk\le \Bbbk'$ is a right adjoint on the category of $\Bbbk$-coalgebras).

Factorization envelopes and enveloping vertex algebras

We develop a bornological version of Costello and Gwilliam's procedure for extracting vertex algebras from suitable prefactorization algebras on the complex plane. Using bornological complex analysis, we remove the discreteness condition imposed in their extraction theorem. We then construct, from a suitable Lie conformal algebra, a prefactorization algebra to which this extraction procedure applies, and prove that the resulting vertex algebra is isomorphic to the enveloping vertex algebra of the original Lie conformal algebra. Our construction uses a factorization envelope and extends the construction of Costello--Gwilliam in the affine vertex algebra case and that of Williams in the Virasoro vertex algebra case. Moreover, a super analogue yields new prefactorization algebras corresponding to vertex superalgebras, such as the Neveu--Schwarz vertex superalgebra, the $N=2$ vertex superalgebra, and the $N=4$ vertex superalgebra.

BiHom-L-R-smash biproduct and BiHom-Yetter-Drinfel'd-Long category

In this article, we first introduce the notion of BiHom-L-R-$\binom{m,n,p,q}{s,t,u,v}$-smash biproduct over a BiHom-Hopf algebra, denoted by $D\natural H$, where $m,n,p,q,s,t,u,v\in \mathbb{Z}$, and give the sufficient condition for $D\natural H$ to be a BiHom-bialgebra. Furthermore, we describe the concept of BiHom-$\binom{m,n,p,q}{s,t,u,v}$-Yetter-Drinfel'd-Long bimodule via BiHom-L-R-$\binom{m,n,p,q}{s,t,u,v}$-smash biproduct bialgebra, and prove that the category $\mathcal{LR}(H)(m,n,p,q)$ of BiHom-$\binom{m,n,p,q}{s,t,u,v}$-Yetter-Drinfel'd-Long bimodule is a strict braided monoidal category. Finally, for a finite-dimensional BiHom-Hopf algebra H, \(\mathcal{LR}(H)\binom{m,n,p,q}{s,t,u,v}\) is isomorphic to the BiHom-$\binom{s,t}{p,q}$-Yetter-Drinfel'd category \({}_{H\otimes H^*}^{H\otimes H^*}\mathcal{YD}\binom{s,t}{p,q}\) as braided monoidal categories.

On finite dimensionality of homology of subalgebras of vector fields

We show that finite tensor products of modules of tensor fields are Noetherian modules over any graded Lie subalgebra of finite codimension in the Lie algebra of polynomial vector fields on $\mathbb{R}^n$. As a corollary, we prove the conjecture of I.\,M. Gelfand, announced at the ICM in Nice in 1970, on the finite-dimensionality of the continuous cohomology of graded Lie subalgebras of finite codimension in the Lie algebra of formal vector fields $W_n$.
