Motivation and historical appearance

Given a finite-dimensional Hopf algebra HH and a D(H)D(H)-module algebra AA (where D(H)D(H) is the Drinfeld double of HH), Lu1996 has introduced the structure of a left AA-bialgebroid on the smash product algebra AHA\sharp H as a noncommutative generalization of the algebra of functions on an action groupoid. In this finite-dimensional case, the category of left-right Yetter-Drinfeld modules is equivalent to the category of Yetter-Drinfeld HH-modules. In this new context of Yetter-Drinfeld module algebras, the construction has been generalized by the so called Brzeziński-Militaru construction or scalar extension bialgebroid in BrzezinskiMilitaru2002. They also proved a converse, roughly that the formulas given for the scalar extension bialgebroid for an arbitrary smash product satisfy the axioms of a bialgebroid only if the module algebra which is also a comodule is in fact a braided commutative Yetter-Drinfeld algebra.

Definition

If (H,Δ,ϵ)(H,\Delta,\epsilon) (where Δ(h)=h (1)h (2)\Delta(h) = \sum h_{(1)}\otimes h_{(2)} is a bialgebra and AA a left-right Yetter-Drinfeld HH-module algebra with Hopf action :HAA\triangleright:H\otimes A\to A and a coaction ρ:AAH\rho: A\to A\otimes H, then the smash product AHA\sharp H inherits the left AA-bialgebroid structure (AH,α,β,Δ AH,ϵ AH)(A\sharp H,\alpha,\beta,\Delta^{A\sharp H},\epsilon^{A\sharp H}) where source α(a)=a1\alpha(a) = a\sharp 1, target β\beta is ρ\rho followed by the identification of vector spaces AHAHA\sharp H\cong A\otimes H and the coproduct Δ AH\Delta^{A\sharp H} is obtained by extending Δ\Delta along inclusion HAHH\to A\sharp H, that is,

Δ AH:AH(AH) A(AH),ahah (1)1h (2), \Delta^{A\sharp H} : A\sharp H\to (A\sharp H)\otimes_A (A\sharp H), \,\,\,\,a\sharp h\mapsto a\sharp h_{(1)}\otimes 1\sharp h_{(2)},

which is an extension of Δ\Delta along the canonical embedding HAHH\to A\sharp H. The counit is

ϵ AH:AHA,ϵ AH(ah)=aϵ(h). \epsilon^{A\sharp H}:A\sharp H\to A,\,\,\,\, \epsilon^{A\sharp H}(a\sharp h) = a\epsilon(h).

Scalar extension Hopf algebroid

If HH is a Hopf algebra the Brzeziński-Militaru construction gives a Lu-Hopf bialgebroid and if the antipode SS of HH is invertible then it gives also a Böhm-Szlachányi symmetric Hopf algebroid. If the antipode SS is not invertible then the data of a Yetter-Drinfeld module algebra has to be replaced by a compatible pair of a left-right Yetter-Drinfeld module algebra and a right-left Yetter-Drinfeld module algebra yielding again a symmetric Hopf algebroid Stojic2023.

Special case: Heisenberg double

Heisenberg double H *HH^*\sharp H of a finite-dimensional Hopf algebra is a specific example of a Hopf algebroid. There are many infinite-dimensional cases of Heisenberg double which can be cast into bialgebroids, but most often complicated issues with completions are involved (e.g. in MSSncphasespace2017)

Every invertible counital 2-cocycle F=F 1F 2F = \sum F^1\otimes F^2 (Drinfeld twist) for a bialgebra HH, with inverse F 1=G 1G 2F^{-1} = G^1\otimes G^2, induces a Drinfeld-Xu 2-cocycle 𝒢=1G 1 A1G 2\mathcal{G}=\sum 1\sharp G^1\otimes_A 1\sharp G^2 for the scalar extension bialgebroid AHA\sharp H. The scalar extension for the FF-twisted data A FH FA_F\sharp H^F is isomorphic as a A FA_F-bialgebroid to the 𝒢\mathcal{G}-twist of AHA\sharp H.

Some corrections and a slight generalization are given in

An infinite-dimensional case of a Heisenberg double of a universal enveloping algebra U(g)U(g) of a finite dimensional Lie algebra over a field of characteristic zero is described as a version of a completed Hopf algebroid in

While all the statements in the above article are rigorous, the axioms are not the most natural. A natural version where the Heisenberg double of U(g)U(g) has been described as an internal Hopf algebroid (of an internal scalar extension type) in a symmetric monoidal category of (countably cofinite) filtered-cofiltered vector spaces in
