# Zoran Skoda my writings

Some of my writings can be found online. Below is the list (later I will post here links to some errata and complimentary notes to some of the items). If other authors are not mentioned, the articles are authored just by me (Zoran Škoda). My thesis title was Coset spaces for quantum groups, and the abstract and the other data of it can be read at ProQuest or, in text format, at link. For MR numbers see my MR numbers.

The following paper is now under serious revision (and a followup is in preparation), please do not take the old arXiv version seriously (it has a number of errors):

There is also a related manuscript on associated bundles,

• Quantum bundles using coactions and localizations, in preparation.

There is also an ongoing project with Gabi Böhm on comonad compatible localization?s, comonadic machinery for gluing in equivariant setup and on globalizing Hopf-Galois extensions. I had partial results in this direction in 2004, when I wrote a LaTeX manuscript “Globalizing Hopf-Galois extensions”. Several main remaining problems were resolved in collaboration with Gabi in Spring 2011 when we wrote few new manuscripts. It will soon appear as joint work with the same title

• Gabriela Böhm, Zoran Škoda, Globalizing Hopf-Galois extensions, in preparation

There is some complementary work on gluing functors which may stay part of this work or will appear elsewhere (in a bit different setup the topic of gluing functors has been recently continued in a collaboration with M. Stojić).

Some related entries to the tematics of this group of articles at the nlab are noncommutative geometry, equivariant noncommutative algebraic geometry, noncommutative scheme, quasicoherent sheaf, coherent sheaf, equivariant object. coring, comodule, localized coinvariant, distributive law, algebraic geometry, descent in noncommutative algebraic geometry, noncommutative algebraic geometry, bialgebra, Hopf algebra, Hopf action, Hopf module, comodule algebra, Hopf-Galois extension, quantum group, Ore set, Ore localization, matrix Hopf algebra, quantum Gauss decomposition, universal localization and in ‘private area’ of nlab also gluing categories from localizations, cleft extension of a space cover.

Quantum heaps

• Quantum heaps, cops and heapy categories , Mathematical Communications 12, No. 1, pp. 1-9 (2007); math.QA/0701749.

I introduced quantum heaps in Spring 2001, and they entered as a side-topic (Chapter 9 only) in my thesis. They were rediscovered by Grunspan in 2002 what spurred lots of activity and publications, but unfortunately nobody did refer nor use my work till the publication of my 2007 remake above.

A geometric version of this Hopf algebroid, in terms of differential operators on a Lie group is being developed in an article in preparation with Martina Stojić. We also work on independent construction of the algebraic version of the Hopf algebroid by a construction of extension of scalars for Hopf algebroids generalized to doubles of certain class of filtered infinite-dimensional Hopf algebras.

Meljanac devised in a family of examples an alternative approach to Hopf algebroids over noncommutative base involving some special subalgebra $\mathcal{B}$ of the tensor square $H\otimes H$ of the total algebra $H$ of the Hopf algebroid. In the following work M. Stojić and I have written out an appropriate axiomatics for this kind of constructions; and proven that every scalar extension Hopf algebroid can be cast into this form with an appropriate choice of the balancing subalgebra $\mathcal{B}$:

• Zoran Škoda, Martina Stojić, Hopf algebroids with balancing subalgebra, J. Alg. 598:445-469 (2022) arxiv/1610.03837 doi

In October 2019, at IHES I proved that if $H$ is a Hopf $A$-algebroid in the sense of Bohm-Szlachanyi and $F$ a Drinfeld-Xu counital bialgebroid 2-cocycle, then the bialgebroid twist of $H$ has an antipode. Showing this has been elusive since 1999 definition of the bialgebroid twist by Xu. I am now writing an account of this result, currently in draft form.

Other scientific topics

With my student M. Bašić, I work on a programme of finding the integration objects for Leibniz algebras, which could be called Leibniz groups. Here is a manifesto:

• Search for Leibniz groups (pdf).

Not included in this manifesto is a discussion of the internal Weyl algebra in the Loday-Pirashvili category which is in the rector prize work of Bašić under my guidance. Also there is my manuscript on certain bialgebras in LP category (roughly speaking).

G. Sharygin and I started to write about unfinished research with tentative title

• G. Sharygin, Z. Škoda, Corrected coexponential map for universal enveloping of a Lie algebroid

The PBW isomorphism is not a coalgebra map in the case of algebroids, that is why the correction. We studied this subject at MPIM Bonn in Spring 2010, then a week at IHES in late November 2010 and talked much via skype in April and should continue these days.

In future, I would like to work closer to the BV-quantization program which is now being better geometrically understood.
