On Quasitriangular Structures in Hopf Algebras Arising from Exact Group Factorizations

Pages 4763-4775 | Received 01 Sep 2010, Published online: 14 Dec 2011
 

Abstract

We show that bicrossed product Hopf algebras arising from exact factorizations in almost simple finite groups, so in particular, in simple and symmetric groups, admit no quasitriangular structure.
