1 Preliminaries
In what
follows,
C denotes asymmetric
closedcategory [6]
withequal- izers, coequalizers
and basicobject
K. The naturalsymmetry
isomor-phisms
in C arerepresented by
T. We denoteby
aM and03B2M
the unitand the
counit, respectively,
of theC-adjunction
If M is an
object
of C we denoteby
M* the dualobject HOM(M, K)
of M and
by EM
theobject HOM(M, M).
Definition 1.1 An
object
P of C is called finite if themorphism
is an
isomorphism, equivalentely HOM(P, -)=
P* Q9 -. If P is finitewe denote
by
ap andbp
the unit and thecounit, respectively,
of theC-adjunction PO - -l P* O - : C - C
Definition 1.2 Let P be a finite
object
in C. If the factorizationOKPx
of
3p(K) :
P 0 P* -+ Kthrough
thecoequalizer
of themorphisms 03B2P (P)O
P* and P 0(HOM(P, (3p(K)
o[03B2P (P) O P* ])
oap (Ep 0 P*))
:POEPOP*-POP*
is anisomorphism,
we say that P isa progenerator
in C.
Equivalentely,
P is aprogenerator
in C if thediagram
is a
coequalizer diagram
in C.Definition 1.3 An
algebra
in C is atriple
A =(A, ’f/A, ttA)
where A isan
object
in Candqa :
K -A,
p A :AOA - A
aremorphisms
in C suchthat uAo (AOnA) = idA = uAo (nAOA),uAo (AOuA)=uAo (uAOA).
If ILA o TA,A = u4, then we will say that A is a commutative
algebra.
Given two
algebras
A =(A,nA, uA)
and B =(B,1JB,J,tB), f :
A -Bis an
algebra morphism

in C then Aop=(A,1JA,J-LA

algebra
in C that we will callopposite algebra

inC,
we define thealgebra product by

Each M of C determines analgebra

object
in C and p M :AO
M - M is amorphism
inC
satisfying
cpM o(nA
OM)
=idM,
pM o(A 0 ’PM) ==
pM o(uAO M).
With
AC
we denote thecategory
of left A-modules withmorphisms
those of C that preserve the structure. Similar definitions for
right
A-modules. Note that when K =
(K,qK, pK)
is the trivialalgebra
inC,
then
KC = C Examples
1.6a)
For all Mof G, (M, /3M(M))

aremorphisms
inC such that

=(D 0 6D)
o6D-
If TD,D o6D = 6D,
then we will say that D is a cocommutativecoalgebra.
If D =
(D, ED, 6D)
and E =(E, EE, dE)
arecoalgebras, f :
D - Eis a
coalgebra morphism

Definition 1.8 Let
HI
=( H, nH, J-LH)
be analgebra
andH2
=( H,
£H,6H)
a
coalgebra
and let A : H - H be amorphism.
Then(H,
77H, IIH, EH,6H, À)
is a
Hopf algebra
in C if EHand 6H
arealgebra morphisms ( equivalently
NH and pH are
coalgebra morphisms )
and A is such thatIf
Hl
is commutative we say that H is commutative.Analogously,
H is cocommutative if
H2
is cocommutative.If H is finite then H is a
progenerator [9].
As a consequence, H isfaithfully
flat .1.9 If H =
( H, nH , uH , EH , dH , B)
is a finiteHopf algebra (i.e.
H isa finite
object
inC)
we will denote the dualHopf algebra
of Hby
Definition 1.10 Let H be a
Hopf algebra. (A; cpA) = ((A,qA, MA); cpA)
is a left H-module
algebra
if A =(A, nA, pA)
is analgebra
inC, (A, p A)
is a left H-modue and qA and pA are
morphisms
of left H-modules.Let
(A; cpA), (B; ’PB)
be left H-modulealgebras.
Amorphism
of leftH-module monoids
f :
A - B is amorphism
ofalgebras
and left H-modules.
Examples
1.11a)
Let H be a cocommutativeHopf algebra.
If(A; cpA)
and(B; cpB)
are left H-module
algebras
then(AB; ’PA0B)
and(AOP; cpA)
are leftH-module
algebras
where ’PA0B =(’PA 0 cps)

A is amorphism
ofleft H-module
algebras.

2 Galois H-objects with
anormal basis
and functoriality
In the next
sections,
H denotes a finiteHopf algebra
in C. We will suppose too that the basicobject
K isprojective.
Definition 2.1 A
right
H-comodWealgebra (B; pB)
is said to be aGalois
H-object
if andonly
if:i)
Themorphism
IB :=(J1B 0 H)
o(B 0 pa)
B O B - B O H isan
isomorphism.
ii)
B is aprogenerator
in C.7
Let
(Bl; PB1)’ (B2; PB2 )
be GaloisH-objects.
Amorphism
of Ga-lois
H-objects f : B,
-B2
is amorphism
ofalgebras
andright
H-comodules. Note that all
morphisms
of GaloisH-objects
are isomor-phisms (see [7]).
Definition 2.2 If
(A; pA), (B; pB)
areright
H-comodulealgebras,
thenA oH
B,
definedby
thefollowing equalizer diagram
is a
right
H-comodulealgebra ,
to be denotedby (AoH B; pAoHB),
whereuAoHB
( resp. 77AOHB )
is the factorization of themorphism uAOBo(iHABO iHA B) ( resp.
nAOqB ) through iH
and pAoHB is the factorization ofd1HAB
oi!1B through
theequalizer iHABO
H.When
(A; pA), (B; PB)
are GaloisH-objects
then(AoH B; pAoHB)
isalso a Galois
H-object (
see(4.4.2)
of[7] ).
Definition 2.3 The set of
isomorphism
classes of GaloisH-objects,
with the
operation
defined in(2.2),
is an abelian group to be denotedby Galc(H).
The unit element is the class of(H; 6H)
and the inverse of[(B; PB)l
is[Bop; (B 0 A)

Example
2.4 In the case of afinitely generated projective
and cocom-mutative
Hopf algebra
H over a commutativering R, Galc(H) general-
izes the group obtained
by
S. Chase and M. Sweedler in[5].
See[4]
formore details.
Proposition
2.5 Let cp : G - H be amorpjaism of Hopf algebras. If (B; rB) is
a aright
G-comodulealgebras
then(B;
pB =(B 0 cp)
orB)
isa
right
H-comodulealgebra.
Proof: Straightforward.

Remark 2.6 As a
particular
instance of 2.5 we obtain that(G; p’G=
(G Q9 cp)
o6G)
is aright
H-comodtdealgebra.
Proposition
2.7Let cp :
G - H be amorphism of finite Hopf algebras
where G is cocommutative. Let
(A; PA)
be aright
H -comodulealgebra
and
(B; rB), (C; rc)
beright
G-comodulealgebras. If
A and C areflat,
then
as
right
G-comodulealgebras.
Proof.- Using
thecocommutativity
of G is not difficult to see that(A
OHB, r AOHB)
is a G-comodulealgebra,
where rAoH B : AoH B -+
A oH B 0 G is the
factorization, through
theequalizer iA
0G ,
ofthe
morphism (A
OrB)o iHAB. Analogously,
let rAoH(BoGC) be the G- comodule structure forAoH (BoGC).
Notethat,
in this case ’RAOH (Boe.C)) satisfies theequality
being
rB-,,,C the G-comodule striicture for B OG C.Now we prove that A OH
(B
OGC)
is theequalizer
of themorphisms
,
Indeed,
in thediagram
where , we have that
-9-
and
therefore,
As a consequence, there exists a
morphism g :
satisfying
.Moreover,
and
then,
since C and G .arefinite, Hence,
there exists an
unique
such that
i G(AoHB)C ° g’
= g. It is an standard calculus to prove thatg’
is amorphism
of G-comodulealgebras.
Next we show thatg’
is anisomorphism.
be a
morphism
such that10
there exists a
unique
mapA oH
(B
OGC)
be theunique morphism
such that ithis
morphism
it is easy to seethat g
of =
1.by
theequalities
we obtain that s =
f .
Thereforeg’
is anisomorphism.
The next result is a
generalization
of the one obtainedby Wenninger
in
[11].
Proposition
2.8 Let cp : G - H be amorphism of finite Hopf algebras
where G is cocommutative.
If (A; pA) is
a GaloisH-object
then thepair
(A
oHG,r AoHG),
wherer-AoHG is
themorphism defined
in theproof of Proposition 2.7,
is a GaloisG-object.
Proof:
Thediagrams
and
are
equalizer diagrams.
On the otherhand, by
thecocommutativity
ofG,
11
and then there exists a
morphism
J such thatTrivially, f = (uA
0G)
o(A O iHAG) . Moreover,
f is an isomor-phism
with inverse the factorizationthrough
theequalizer AO iHAG
ofthe
morphism (,AI 0 G)
o(A 0 íG,H)
o(A O pG).
For the
morphism
yAoHG we have that:and
then,
since A isfinite,
yAoHG is anisomorphism. Finally
A OH G isa
progenerator
becausef : A Q9
A oH G -A 0
G is anisomorphism
andA,
G areprogenerators.
Proposition
2.9 Let ’P : G -+ H be amorphism of finite
cocom-mutative
Hopf algebras.
There exists amorphism of
abelian groupsGal(cp) : Galc(H) -+ Galc(G) defined by
Proof:
Let(A, pA)
and(B, pB)
be GaloisH-objects. Then, by
2.7we obtain that:
Therefore
Gal(cp)
is a groupmorphism.

Definition 2.10 Let be H be a finite cocommutative
Hopf algebra.
Wesay that a Galois
H-object (A; pA)
has a normal basis if isisomorphic
with H as an H-comodule.
The set of
isomorphisms
classes of GaloisH-objects
with a normalbasis
Nc(H)
is asubgroup
ofGalc(H) (see
2.5 of[1]).
Proposition
2.11 Let cp : G 2013H be amorphism of finite Hopf alge-
bras where G is cocommutative.
If (A; pA)
is a GaloisH-object
with anormal basis then
(A
oHG; rAoHG) is a
GaloisG-object
with a normalbasis.
Proof:
We define h :=(/ 0 G)
o(cp
0G)
odG ,
wheref :
H -A isthe H-comodule
isomorphism
wich exists because(A, pA)
has a normalbasis.
Using
thecocommutativity
ofG, h
factorizesthrough
theequal-
izer
iHAG Let 9 :
H- A oH G be this factorization. Anstraightforward
verification
yields that g
is anisomorphism
of G-comodulealgebras
withinverse
9-1
=((EH

0G)
oiHAG.
Remark 2.12
Let cp :
G 2013H be amorphism
of cocommutativeHopf algebras.
As a consequence of 2.9 and 2.11 we obtain that there existsa commutative
diagram
of abelian groups:where
N(’P)
is the restriction ofGal(cp).
2.13 With
G(C, H)
we will denote thecategory
whoseobjects
are theGalois
H-objects
and whosemorphisms
are themorphisms
of GaloisH-objects.
Theproduct
of GaloisH-objects
defines aproduct,
in thesense of Bass
(2),
inG(C, H)
and it is easy to prove thatGal (H) = KoG(C, H). Analogously
we construct thecategory N(C, H)
of GaloisH-objects
with a normal basis. Thiscategory
has aproduct
too andNC(H) = KoN(C, H).
The
category C (H) - {(H; dH)}
is a cofinalsubcategory
ofG(C, H)
and
N(C, H),
then we have thatK1C(H)= K1G(C, H) = K1N(C, H).
13
Moreover, K,C(H)
isisomorphic
with(G(H*), *),
the commutative group ofgrouplike morphisms
ofH*;
thatis,
the set ofmorphisms
h : K - H* such that
6H*
o h = hOh,
£ H* o h =idx
with theoperation
of convolution h * h’ = IIH- o
(h 0 h’) (see [8]).
Let cp :
G - H be amorphism
of cocommutativeHopf algebras.
There exists functors
defined
by G(cp)((A, pA))= (A
OHG; rAoHG)
andN(cp) = G(cp)lN (C,H).
These functors preserve the
product
and are cofinal because if(B, rB)
is a Galois
G-object
thenTherefore, using
K-theoreticalarguments
we obtain a commutative di-agram of exact sequences: ,
where
Gr(cp) : G(H*) - G(G*)

Definition 3.1 An
algebra
A =(A,

is said to beAzumaya
ifA is a
progenerator
in C and themorphism XA : A Q9
A -EA
betweenthe
algebras
A°PA andEA
definedby
is an
isomorphism.
14
Definition 3.2 On the set of
isomorphism
classes of left H-moduleAzumayan algebras
we define theequivalence
relation:(A; cpA) - (B; cpB)
if there exist
(M, cpM), (N, ’PN)
left H-moduleprogenerators
in C andan
isomorphism
of left H-modulealgebras
between(AEopM; cpAOEM)
and(BE’:; opAOEN).
The set of
equivalence
classes of left H-modueAzumayan algebras
is a group under the
operation
inducedby
the tensorproduct.
The unitelement is the class of the left H-module
Azumayan algebra (EM; «JEM)’
for some
progenerator
H-module(M, cpM),
and the inverse of(A; cpA)
is(A°P; cpA).
This group is denotedby BM(C, H)
and the class of(A; cpA) by [(A; cpA)]-
If H =
(1,1, 03C4K,1)
is the trivialHopf algebra
inC,
thenBM(C, H)
is the Brauer group,
B(C),
of thesymmetric
closedcategory
C(see [10], [7]).
Definition 3.3 For each
Hopf algebra
H and each left H-modulealge-
bra
(A; cpA),
the smashproduct AIIH
is definedby
where
Definition 3.4 Let
(A; cpA)
a left H-moduleAzumayan algebra.
Wedefine the
object II(A) by
theequalizer diagram
15
(II(A) == (II(A),
nII(A),uII(A)); Pn(A))
is a GaloisH-object
where uII(A)( resp. nII(A))
is the factorizationthrough
theequalizer JAOH
of the mor-phism
uAllH o(jAllHO jAllH) (
resp.NAOH )
and Pn(A) is the factorizationthrough
theequalizer jApHO
H of themorphism (A O 6H) o jAllH (see [7]).
3.5 There is an
epimorphism
of abelian groups II :BM(C, H) Galc (H) given by II([(A; cpA)])= [H(A) ; pTT(A))].
If
[(B; pB))]
EGalc(H),
then[(BtH*;
cpBllH.*(B 0
H* 0bH)
o(B 0 TH,H*OH*)
o(TH,BOdH*))]
is inBM(C, H)
and there is anisomorphism
of Galois
H-objects
between B andII(BllH*).
The sequence
(Beattie’s decomposition
theorem[3])
is
split exact,
where themorphism iH
isgiven by iH ([A]) = [(A; êH0A)]
and the
morphism j : BM(C, H) - B(C)
definedby j([(A; cpA)])= [A]
is a retraction
(see [7]).
Definition 3.6 For an
algebra
A =(A,TIA,ILA)
and acoalgebra
D =(D,
eD,6D),
we denoteby Reg(D, A)
the group of invertible elements in the set ofmorphisms
in Cf :
D --> A. Theoperation
in this group is the convolutiongiven by f A g
= MA o( f O g)
o6D.
The unit element is EDOnA.Definition 3.7 Let H be a
Hopf algebra
and A =(A, nA, ILA)
be analgebra.
We say that an action cpA of H in A is inner if there exists amorphism f
EReg(H, A)
such thatwhere
f -1
is the convolution inverse off .
16
Definition 3.8 Let H be a finite cocommutative
Hopf algebra.
We de-note
by BMinn(C, H)
the subset ofBM(C, H)
built up with theequiva-
lence classes that can be
represented by
an H-moduleAzumayan algebra
with inner action.
3.9 The set
BMinn(C, H)
is asubgroup
ofBM(C, H) (4.4
of[1]).
Wedenote
by
yH the inclusionmorphism. Finally,
the sequence(Beattie’s decomposition
theorem for inneractions)
is
split
exact(see
4.5 of[1]).
3.10
Finally, using
the results of section two and thedecomposition
theorems of 3.5 and
3.9,
for amorphism
p : : G - H between finite cocommutativeHopf algebras
there exists a commutativediagram
ofabelian groups:
