Abstract
The theory of integrals is used to analyze the structure of Hopf algebroids. We prove that the total algebra of a Hopf algebroid is a separable extension of the base algebra if and only if it is a semi-simple extension and if and only if the Hopf algebroid possesses a normalized integral. It is a Frobenius extension if and only if the Hopf algebroid possesses a nondegenerate integral. We give also a sufficient and necessary condition in terms of integrals, under which it is a quasi-Frobenius extension, and illustrate by an example that this condition does not hold true in general. Our results are generalizations of classical results on Hopf algebras.
