Abstract

We study actions of semisimple Hopf algebras H on Weyl algebras A over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. We show that the action of H on A must factor through a group action; in other words, if H acts inner faithfully on A, then H is cocommutative. The techniques used include reduction modulo a prime number and the study of semisimple cosemisimple Hopf actions on division algebras.
