A Galois connection between subalgebras and tensor subcategories
Abstract: Let be a braided finite tensor category and let be a simple commutative algebra in . We construct an order-reversing Galois connection between subalgebras of and tensor subcategories of . Let $\mathcal{B}'$ denote the Müger center and set $A':=A\cap\mathcal{B}'$. The closure operators are $B\mapsto\langle B,A'\rangle</em>{\mathrm{alg}}$ and . Thus the closed subalgebras are those containing $A'$, while the closed tensor subcategories are those containing ; equivalently, the fixed-point intervals $[A',A]</em>{\mathrm{alg}}$ and are anti-isomorphic as lattices. For a finite tensor category , the canonical algebra in yields an anti-isomorphism between its subalgebras and tensor subcategories of . When is nondegenerate, Frobenius extensions correspond to unimodular tensor subcategories. For a Hopf algebra in , the correspondence specializes to an order-preserving bijection between Hopf ideals and normal left coideal subalgebras.
