Commutative case

Commutative case

On A=KDA = K^{D} with its basis of orthogonal idempotents, multiplicativity forces each Δ(ei)\cop(e_{i}) to be a sum of basis tensors ep⊗eqe_{p} \otimes e_{q} with disjoint supports, so the coproduct is a partial operation p∘q=ip \circ q = i. Coassociativity makes it associative, the weak unit axiom says that if p∘qp \circ q is defined then (p∘q)∘r(p \circ q) \circ r is defined exactly when q∘rq \circ r is, and the counit and antipode are then unique.

Theorem (Yamanouchi for C∗C^{*}-algebras; folklore over any field). Weak Hopf structures on KDK^{D} are, up to isomorphism, the function algebras KGK^{\mathcal{G}} of the groupoids G\mathcal{G} with DD arrows, and dim⁡At\dim A_{t} is the number of objects.

A connected groupoid is Pairn×G\mathrm{Pair}_{n} \times G, so with g(m)g(m) the number of groups of order mm:

∑D≥0a(D) xD=∏v≥1(1−xv)−c(v),c(v)=∑n2∣vg ⁣(vn2).\sum_{D \ge 0} a(D)\, x^{D} = \prod_{v \ge 1} (1 - x^{v})^{-c(v)}, \qquad c(v) = \sum_{n^{2} \mid v} g\!\left(\tfrac{v}{n^{2}}\right).

The catalog holds all 11 111 function algebras for D≤20D \le 20 and their duals, the groupoid algebras K[G]K[\mathcal{G}]; 10 722 of the duals are new. The counts of groups match OEIS A000001 and the self-dual entries A018819. The theorem covers split algebras only: Q[C3]≅Q×Q(ζ3)\mathbb{Q}[C_{3}] \cong \mathbb{Q} \times \mathbb{Q}(\zeta_{3}) is commutative and semisimple but not Q3\mathbb{Q}^{3}, and non-split forms are open.

On a split commutative algebra the groupoid is a complete invariant: written in the primitive-idempotent basis, Δ\Delta is its composition table. Two such algebras are isomorphic exactly when their groupoids are.
