On Hopf Galois Extension of Separable Algebras

In this paper, the classical Galois theory to the H*-Galois case is developed. Let H be a semisimple and cosemisimple Hopf algebra over a field k, A a left H-module algebra, and A/An a right H*-Galois extension. The authors prove that, if An is a separable kalgebra, then for any right coideal subalg...

Summary:In this paper, the classical Galois theory to the H*-Galois case is developed. Let H be a semisimple and cosemisimple Hopf algebra over a field k, A a left H-module algebra, and A/An a right H*-Galois extension. The authors prove that, if An is a separable kalgebra, then for any right coideal subalgebra B of H, the B-invariants AB = {a ∈ A | b · a = ε(b)a, Ab ε B} is a separable k-algebra. They also establish a Galois connection between right coideal subalgebras of H and separable subalgebras of A containing AH as in the classical case. The results are applied to the case H = (kG)* for a finite group G to get a Galois 1-1 correspondence.
