Homological duality and exact sequences of Hopf algebras
Julian Le Clainche
TL;DR
The paper develops a Hopf-algebraic framework for homological duality, establishing that duality properties are stable under exact sequences of Hopf algebras when the middle algebra is faithfully flat over the subalgebra and the outer algebras are smooth. It introduces Hopf-algebra Lyndon–Hochschild–Serre spectral sequences to connect Ext and Tor groups across the exact sequence, then proves that $\mathrm{cd}(A)=\mathrm{cd}(B)+\mathrm{cd}(H)$ and that duality transfers from $B$ and $H$ to $A$ (and conversely). It further shows that twisted Calabi–Yau properties are preserved in the sum of cohomological dimensions and provides concrete examples, including universal pointed Hopf algebras and quantum groups of $GL(2)$, where these dualities yield new instances and explicit structures.
Abstract
We study the stability of homological duality properties of Hopf algebras under extensions.
