Galois coverings, Morita equivalence and smash extensions of categories over a field.
In this paper, for a cocommutative Hopf algebra H in a symmetric closed category C with basic object K, we get an isomorphism between the group of isomorphism classes of Galois H-objects with a normal basis and the second cohomology group H2(H,K) of H with coefficients in K. Using this result, we obtain a direct sum decomposition for the Brauer group of H-module Azumaya monoids with inner action:BMinn(C,H) ≅ B(C) ⊕ H2(H,K)In particular, if C is the symmetric closed category of C-modules with K a...
Generalized radical rings (braces) were introduced for the study of set-theoretical solutions of the quantum Yang-Baxter equation. We discuss their relationship to groups of I-type, virtual knot theory, and quantum groups.
