Grassmann-Hopf algebras and coalgebras\gebras (Topic)

0.1 Definitions of Grassmann-Hopf Algebras, Their Dual Co-Algebras, Gebras, Grassmann–Hopf Algebroids and Gebroids

Let V be a (complex) vector space, dim 𝒞V = n, and let {e0,e1,…,} with identity e0 1, be the generators of a Grassmann (exterior) algebra

Λ ∗V = Λ0V  ⊕ Λ1V  ⊕ Λ2V  ⊕ ⋅ ⋅⋅
(0.1)

subject to the relation eiej + ejei = 0 . Following Fauser (2004) we append this algebra with a Hopf structure to obtain a ‘co–gebra’ based on the interchange (or ‘tangled duality’https://physicslibrary.org/encyclopedia/GroupoidSymmetries.html):

(objects/points, morphisms ) ↦→  (morphisms,  objects/points.)

This leads to a tangle duality between an associative (unital algebra) 𝒜 = (A,m), and an associative (unital) ‘co–gebra’ 𝒞 = (C, Δ) :

  • the binary product A A m
− →A, and
  • the coproduct C−Δ→C C

, where the Sweedler notation (Sweedler, 1996), with respect to an arbitrary basis is adopted:

        ∑             ∑
Δ (x) =     a ⊗  b =     x   ⊗ x    = x   ⊗ x
             r    r       (1)    (2)    (1)   (2)
        ∑r        ∑   (x)
Δ (xi) =     Δjk =     aj  ⊗ bk(r) = x (1) ⊗ x(2)
          i   i    (r) (r)

Here the Δijk are called ‘section coefficients’. We have then a generalization of associativity to coassociativity:

          Δ
  C    − −−→     C ⊗ C
   ↓Δ   Δ ⊗id       ↓id⊗Δ
C ⊗  C − −−→  C  ⊗ C ⊗ C
(0.2)

inducing a tangled duality between an associative (unital algebra 𝒜 = (A,m), and an associative (unital) ‘co–gebra’ 𝒞 = (C, Δ) . The idea is to take this structure and combine the Grassmann algebra (ΛV,) with the ‘co-gebra’ (ΛV, Δ ) (the ‘tangled dual’) along with the Hopf algebra compatibility rules: 1) the product and the unit are ‘co–gebra’ morphisms, and 2) the coproduct and counit are algebra morphisms.

Next we consider the following ingredients:

  • the graded switch τ(A B) = (1)∂A∂BB A
  • the counit 𝜀 (an algebra morphism) satisfying (𝜀 id)Δ = id = (id 𝜀
  • the antipode S .

The Grassmann-Hopf algebra H thus consists of–is defined by– the septet H = (ΛV,,id,𝜀,τ,S) .

Its generalization to a Grassmann-Hopf algebroidhttps://physicslibrary.org/encyclopedia/Algebroids.html is straightforward by considering a groupoid G, and then defining a HAlgebroid as a quadruple (GH, Δ,𝜀,S) by modifying the Hopf algebroid definition so that H = (ΛV,,id,𝜀,τ,S) satisfies the standard Grassmann-Hopf algebra axioms stated above. We may also say that (HG, Δ,𝜀,S) is a weak C*-Grassmann-Hopf algebroid when H is a unital C*-algebra (with 1). We thus set 𝔽 =  . Note however that the tangled-duals of Grassman-Hopf algebroids retain both the intuitive interactions and the dynamic diagram advantages of their physical, extended symmetry representations exhibited by the Grassman-Hopf al/gebras and co-gebras over those of either weak C*- Hopf algebroids or weak Hopf C*- algebras.
