Weak Hopf algebras arising from weak matched pairs (2408.05181v1)

Abstract: This work extends the idea of matched pairs presented by Majid in \cite{Majid} and Takeuchi in \cite{Takeuchi} for the context of weak bialgebras and weak Hopf algebras. We introduce, also inspired by partial matched pairs \cite{matchedpair}, the notion of weak matched pairs and establish conditions for a subspace of the smash product be a weak bialgebra/Hopf algebra. Further, some new examples of (co)actions of weak bialgebras over algebras and some results about integral elements are presented.
