Previous work
I In joint work with Eli Aljadeff (Polynomial identities and noncommutative
versal torsors, Adv. Math. 218 (2008), 1453–1495), we concentrated on a class of Hopf Galois extensions obtained from a given Hopf algebra by twisting its product using a two-cocycle, and we constructed “universal spaces” using polynomial identities I The special case where the Hopf algebra is a group algebra had been
worked out by E. Aljadeff, D. Haile, M. Natapov (Graded identities of matrix algebras and the universal graded algebra, to appear in Trans. Amer. Math. Soc., 2008)

Cohomology group and universal coefficient theorem
I In their work Aljadeff, Haile, and Natapov make use of the second
cohomology group H 2 (G, k × ) of a group G and the universal coefficient theorem relating the cohomology of G to the integral homology of G via an exact sequence of the form 1 → Ext1 (H1 (G), k × ) → H 2 (G, k × ) → Hom(H2 (G), k × ) → 1 I The concept of two-cocycles and cohomologous two-cocycles can be
defined for any Hopf algebra, but in general cocycles do not form a group

Restricting cocycles
• Restricting to a class of two-cocycles, called lazy cocycles, Schauenburg, Chen, Bichon, Carnovale et al. managed to define two groups H`1 (H, k) and
H`2 (H, k )
for any Hopf algebra H, extending group cohomology i × H`i (H, k ) ∼ = H (G, k )
(i = 1, 2)
when H = k [G] is a group algebra • The groups H`1 (H, k ) and H`2 (H, k) are called the lazy cohomology groups of H

Cocycle-twisting of Hopf algebras
• Let H be a Hopf algebra and α : H × H → k be an invertible (two-)cocycle • Out of the pair (H, α) we construct a new Hopf algebra H[α], which is H as a coalgebra (unchanged coproduct) and with new product ∗α defined for x, y ∈ H by X x ∗α y = α(x 0 , y 0 ) x 00 y 00 α−1 (x 000 , y 000 ) (x),(y )
Remark. If α is lazy, then H[α] = H as Hopf algebras (it is called “lazy” because it does not alter H)
Cohomologous cocycles
• Lemma (Doi). Let α, β be invertible cocycles. Then H[α] ∼ = H[β] as Hopf algebras if and only if α and β are cohomologous in the following sense • Two-cocycles α and β of H are said to be cohomologous (we write α ∼ β) if there is an invertible linear form λ : H → k with convolution inverse λ−1 : H → k such that for all x, y ∈ H, X β(x, y ) = λ(x 0 ) λ(y 0 ) α(x 00 , y 00 ) λ−1 (x 000 y 000 ) (x),(y)
• By Doi’s lemma, there is a bijection ˘ ¯ ˘ ¯ Hopf algebras H[α] /(isomorphisms) ∼ = invertible cocycles on H /∼
Cocycles on group algebras • Let G be a group and H = k [G] the group algebra with standard coproduct ∆(g) = g ⊗ g
(g ∈ G)
Then the restriction to G of an invertible cocycle α on H is a group-cocycle with values in k × = k − {0} Therefore, α represents an element of the cohomology group H 2 (G, k × ) • Two cocycles α, β on H = k [G] are cohomologous in the sense of the previous slide if and only if for all g, h ∈ G, β(g, h) =
λ(g)λ(h) α(g, h) λ(gh)
for some mapping λ : G → k , i.e., if and only if α and β represent the same element of H 2 (G, k × ) • Therefore, the set {invertible cocycles on k [G]}/∼ has a group structure
Convolution product of cocycles • If H is a cocommutative Hopf algebra, then the convolution product of two cocycles on H is again a cocycle and the set of cohomology classes ˘ ¯ invertible cocycles on H /∼ 2 becomes a group, denoted HSw (H, k ), first considered by Sweedler
Remark. To a cocommutative Hopf algebra Sweedler associated i cohomology groups HSw (H, k ) in any degree i ≥ 1 • For a general Hopf algebra H, the convolution product of two cocycles is no longer a cocycle and the set of cohomology classes ˘ ¯ invertible cocycles on H /∼ is not a group. That is why lazy cohomology was introduced. We have i H`i (H) = HSw (H, k )
for any cocommutative Hopf algebra H
