Abstract

For a given Hopf algebra A we classify all Hopf algebras E that are coalgebra split extensions of A by H4, where H4is the Sweedler's four-dimensional Hopf algebra. Equivalently, we classify all crossed products of Hopf algebras A# H4by computing explicitly two classifying objects: the cohomological "group" [Formula: see text] and CRP (H4, A) ≔ the set of types of isomorphisms of all crossed products A# H4. All crossed products A# H4are described by generators and relations and classified: they are parameterized by the set [Formula: see text] of all central primitive elements of A. Several examples are worked out in detail: in particular, over a field of characteristic p ≥ 3 an infinite family of non-isomorphic Hopf algebras of dimension 4p is constructed. The groups of automorphisms of these Hopf algebras are also described.
