Bipartite coalgebras and a reduction functor for coradical square complete coalgebras
Let C be a coalgebra over an arbitrary field K. We show that the study of the category C-Comod of left C-comodules reduces to the study of the category of (co)representations of a certain bicomodule, in case C is a bipartite coalgebra or a coradical square complete coalgebra, that is, C = C₁, the second term of the coradical filtration of C. If C = C₁, we associate with C a K-linear functor that restricts to a representation equivalence , where is a coradical square complete hereditary bipartite...
