The Radicals of Crossed Products

We construct the $H$-von Neumann regular radical for $H$-module algebras and show that it is an $H$-radical property. We obtain that the Jacobson radical of twisted graded algebra is a graded ideal. For twisted $H$-module algebra $R$, we also show that $r_{j}(R#_\sigma H)= r_{Hj}(R)#_\sigma H$ and the Jacobson radical of $R$ is stable, when $k$ is an algebraically closed field or there exists an algebraic closure $F$ of $k$ such that $r_j(R \otimes F) = r_j(R) \otimes F$, whe...

We obtain that the global dimensions of $R$ and the crossed product $R # _\sigma H$ are the same; meantime, their weak dimensions are also the same, when $H$ is finite-dimensional semisimple and cosemisimple Hopf algebra.

The characterization of $H$-prime radical is given in many ways. Meantime, the relations between the radical of smash product $R # H$ and the $H$-radical of Hopf module algebra $R$ are obtained.

The main properties of the crossed product in the category of Hopf algebras are investigated. Let $A$ and $H$ be two Hopf algebras connected by two morphism of coalgebras $\triangleright : H\ot A \to A$, $f:H\ot H\to A$. The crossed product $A #_{f}^{\triangleright} H$ is a new Hopf algebra containing $A$ as a normal Hopf subalgebra. Furthermore, a Hopf algebra $E$ is isomorphic as a Hopf algebra to a crossed product of Hopf algebras $A #_{f}^{\triangleright} H$ if and only i...

This is a survey article on a question, posed in 1986 by M.Cohen and D.Fishman, whether the smash product $A\#H$ of a semisimple Hopf algebra and a semiprime left $H$-module algebra $A$ is itself semiprime.

Let $(H,\a)$ be a Hom-Hopf algebra and $(A,\b)$ be a Hom-algebra. In this paper we will construct the Hom-crossed product $(A\#_\sigma H,\b\o\a)$, and prove that the extension $A\subseteq A\#_\sigma H$ is actually a Hom-type cleft extension and vice versa. Then we will give the necessary and sufficient conditions to make $(A\#_\sigma H,\b\o\a)$ a Hom-Hopf algebra. Finally we will study the lazy 2-cocycle on $(H,\a)$.

We consider Hopf crossed products of the the type $A#_\sigma \mathcal{H}$, where $\mathcal{H}$ is a cocommutative Hopf algebra, $A$ is an $\mathcal{H}$-module algebra and $\sigma$ is a "numerical" convolution invertible 2-cocycle on $\mathcal{H}$. we give an spectral sequence that converges to the cyclic homology of $A#_\sigma \mathcal{H}$ and identify the $E^1$ and $E^2$ terms of the spectral sequence.

If H is a finite dimensional Hopf algebra, C. Cibils and M. Rosso found an algebra X having the property that Hopf bimodules over H^* coincide with left X-modules. We find two other algebras, Y and Z, having the same property; namely, Y is the "two-sided crossed product" H^*#(H\otimes H^{op})# H^{* op} and Z is the "diagonal crossed product" (H^*\otimes H^{*op})\bowtie (H\otimes H^{op}) (both concepts are due to F. Hausser and F. Nill). We also find explicit isomorphisms betw...

We investigate the structures of Hopf $\ast$-algebra on the Radford algebras over $\mathbb {C}$. All the $*$-structures on $H$ are explicitly given. Moreover, these Hopf $*$-algebra structures are classified up to equivalence.

In this paper we discuss about the semiprimitivity and the semiprimality of partial smash products. Let $H$ be a semisimple Hopf algebra over a field $\mathbb{k}$ and let $A$ be a left partial $H$-module algebra. We study the $H$-prime and the $H$-Jacobson radicals of $A$ and its relations with the prime and the Jacobson radicals of $\underline{A\#H}$, respectively. In particular, we prove that if $A$ is $H$-semiprimitive, then $\underline{A\#H}$ is semiprimitive provided tha...
