Unipotent algebraic affine supergroups and nilpotent Lie superalgebras

摘要

We characterize hereditary (as coalgebras) Hopf algebras by the property of 'equivariant smoothness', and apply the result to generalize to the super-context, the category equivalence, due to Hochschild, between the unipotent algebraic affine groups and the finite-dimensional nilpotent Lie algebras, in characteristic zero. The global dimension of commutative Hopf algebras, regarded as coalgebras, is also discussed.
