Support for integrable Hopf algebras via noncommutative hypersurfaces

Abstract

We consider finite-dimensional Hopf algebras $u$ which admit a smooth deformation $U\to u$ by a Noetherian Hopf algebra $U$ of finite global dimension. Examples of such Hopf algebras include small quantum groups over the complex numbers, restricted enveloping algebras in finite characteristic, and Drinfeld doubles of height $1$ group schemes. We provide a means of analyzing (cohomological) support for representations over such $u$, via the singularity categories of the hypersurfaces $U/(f)$ associated to functions $f$ on the corresponding parametrization space. We use this hypersurface approach to establish the tensor product property for cohomological support, for the following examples: functions on a finite group scheme, Drinfeld doubles of certain height 1 solvable finite group schemes, bosonized quantum complete intersections, and the small quantum Borel in type $A$.
