We give a structure theorem for pointed Hopf algebras of dimension p 3 , having coradical kC p , where k is an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. Combining this with previous results, we obtain the complete classification of all pointed Hopf algebras of dimension p 3. Q 1998 Academic Press

0. INTRODUCTION AND PRELIMINARIES Recent publications have been devoted to classifying finite-dimensional Hopf algebras over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. Nevertheless, except for certain small dimensions, there is only one situation in which the classification was completed, that is in the case of prime dimension p w12x. While the classification of finite-dimensional Hopf algebras of a given dimension seems to be a very difficult task, some subclasses, like semisimple or pointed Hopf algebras, have been classified for certain dimensions. For dimension p 2 it was proved in w7x that all semisimple Hopf algebras are group algebras, and it seems to be ‘‘folklore’’ that all pointed Hopf algebras are group algebras and Taft Hopf algebras Žthe idea for proving * Research supported by the FWO research network WO.011.96N and the project Hopf algebras and co-Galois theory of the Flemish Community. 622 0021-8693r98 $25.00 Copyright Q 1998 by Academic Press All rights of reproduction in any form reserved.

this appeared for the first time in w9, Sect. 4.3x.. Semisimple Hopf algebras of dimension p 3 were classified in w6x by using extensions of Hopf algebras. Pointed Hopf algebras of dimension p n with a coradical that is the group algebra of an abelian group of order p ny 1 were classified in w3x, and the proof was essentially based on the famous Taft]Wilson Theorem. In particular, we know all Hopf algebras of dimension p 3 with coradical kC p 2 or k Ž C p = C p .. These can be produced by starting with one of these group algebras, adding an indeterminate by an Ore extension, and then factoring by a Hopf ideal. In this paper we complete the classification of pointed Hopf algebras of dimension p 3. The case in which the coradical is kC p is more difficult, and it turns out that there are two classes of such Hopf algebras. Both of them can be produced by Ore extension construction, using nonzero derivations for one of the two classes. For p s 2 the two classes are equal; in fact, they contain only one object. Basically, our technique consists of proving that such a Hopf algebra contains two Taft Hopf algebras, with kC p as their intersection. The examples with nonzero derivations have appeared in the literature w10, 4x as quantum groups constructed for the purpose of computing knots and 3-manifold invariants. For p s 2, the Hopf algebra that occurs was used in w4x to compute invariants of lens spaces. After we submitted this paper, we learned that the classification was also done independently in w1x and w11x. However, it seems that the three approaches are very different. Throughout, k is an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. We use the notation of w8x. If H is a Hopf algebra, then GŽ H . will denote the group of grouplike elements of H, and H0 , H1 , . . . will denote the coradical filtration of H. H is called pointed if H0 s kGŽ H .. If g, h g GŽ H ., then Pg, h s  x g H < DŽ x . s x m g q h m x 4 is the set of Ž g, h.-primitive elements. If H is finite-dimensional, there are no nonzero Ž1, 1.-primitive elements. For g, h g GŽ H . let Pg,X h be a complement of k Ž g y h. in Pg, h . We will need the version of the Taft]Wilson Theorem proved in w8, Theorem 5.4.1x. THEOREM 0.1.

Let H be a pointed Hopf algebra. Then

Ž1. H1 s H0 [ Ž[g, h g GŽ H . Pg,X h .. Ž2. For any n G 1 and c g Hn , there exist Ž c g, h . g, h g GŽ H . in H and w g Hny 1 m Hny1 such that c s Ý g, h g GŽ H . c g, h and DŽ c g, h . s c g, h m g q h m c g, h q w. The first part of the theorem shows that GŽ H . is not trivial if H is pointed, nontrivial, and finite-dimensional.

For l a primitive pth root of 1, denote by Tl the Taft Hopf algebra of dimension p 2 with generators c and x such that c p s 1, D Ž c . s c m c,

There are p y 1 such nonisomorphic Taft Hopf algebras. We will use the q-binomial coefficients and the q-binomial formula as in w5, Chap. 4x.

1. CORADICAL kC p Throughout this section H will be a Hopf algebra of dimension p 3 with CoradŽ H . s kC p . LEMMA 1.1. There exist c g GŽ H ., x g H, and l, a primiti¨ e pth root of 1, such that xc s l cx and DŽ x . s c m x q x m 1. The Hopf subalgebra T generated by c and x is a Taft Hopf algebra. Proof. The Taft]Wilson theorem ensures the existence of some c g GŽ H . such that P1, c / k Ž1 y c .. If f : P1, c ª P1, c is the map defined by f Ž a. s cy1 ac for every a g H, then f p s Id, so P1, c has a basis of eigenvectors for f . Let x be such an eigenvector, which is not in k Ž1 y c ., and let l be the corresponding eigenvalue. If l s 1, then the Hopf subalgebra T generated by c and x is commutative, and hence involutory. Now the Larson]Radford Theorem states that a Hopf algebra over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero is cosemisimple if and only if it is involutory. So T is cosemisimple of dimension bigger than p, and this is in contradiction to CoradŽ H . s kC p . We conclude that l / 1, which ends the proof of the first statement. From the fact that DŽ x . s c m x q x m 1, it easily follows that x p is Ž1, 1.-primitive, and x p s 0. This shows that T is a Taft Hopf algebra. In this section T will be the Hopf subalgebra generated by c and x. The Ž n q 1.th term Tn in the coradical filtration of T is the subspace spanned by all c i x j with j F n. In particular, Tpy 1 s T. In the sequel, we will assume that the sum over an empty family is zero. LEMMA 1.2.

If g / c n, we have ¨ 0, ny1 g H0 , and then DŽ b . g H0 m H q H m Hny2 , which is a contradiction, since b f Hny 1.

The relations bc s cb, bx y xb s d , and Ž7. show that the algebra generated by c, b, and x is a Hopf subalgebra of H, so it is the whole of H by the Nichols]Zoeller Theorem w8, Corollary 3.2.1x. They also show that Tq H s HTq, which means that T is a normal Hopf subalgebra. Hence we have an extension of Hopf algebras T ª H ª HrTq H. But in HrTq H we have ˆ c s ˆ1, ˆ x s 0, and ˆ b is Ž1, 1.-primitive, thus 0. We obtain HrTq H , k, and then dimŽ H . s dimŽT ., which provides a final contradiction. At this point we know that there are two different cases: 3 F dimŽ P1, c ., or there exists g / c such that 2 F dimŽ P1, g .. In the first case let us pick some y g P1, c y kx such that yc s m cy for some primitive pth root m of 1 Žrecall that P1, c has a basis of eigenvectors for the conjugation by c .. In the second case pick y g P1, g such that yg s m gy for some m / 1. Write g s c d Žin the first case we will take d s 1.. LEMMA 1.4. The set  c q x i y j <0 F q, i, j F p y 14 is a basis of H.

Ži. If CoradŽ H . s k Ž C p = C p ., then H , Tl m kC p , where Tl is one of the Taft Hopf algebras, and there exist p y 1 types of such Hopf algebras. Žii. If CoradŽ H . s kC p 2 , then H is isomorphic either to some Hp 2 Ž l, i . or to a H˜Ž l., and there are 3Ž p y 1. types of such Hopf algebras. Finally, if dimŽCoradŽ H .. s p 3 , then H is the group algebra of one of the following groups: C p = C p = C p , C p 2 = C p , C p 3 , G1 s C p 2 i C p , G 2 s C p i C p 2 , where G1 , G 2 are the two types of nontrivial semidirect products. We now have the complete classification of pointed Hopf algebras of dimension p 3. THEOREM 2.2. Let H be a pointed Hopf algebra of dimension p 3. Then H is isomorphic to one of the following: Hd Ž l., H Ž l, i ., H˜Ž l., Tl m kC p , where l is a primiti¨ e pth root of 1, Hp 2 Ž l, i . for some l / 1 and i such that 2 l p s 1, and li is a primiti¨ e pth root of 1, k Ž C p = C p = C p ., k Ž C p 2 = C p ., k Ž C p 3 ., k Ž G1 ., k Ž G 2 .. If p is odd, then there are Ž p y 1.Ž p q 9.r2 q 5 such types. If p s 2, then there are 10 types. Note added in proof: Combining our results with the results in w6x, w7x, and w12x, we find the complete classification of all Hopf algebras of dimension p 3 that have a Hopf algebra as coradical Ž p odd.. Indeed, if the coradical of H has dimension p or p 2 , then it is a group algebra, because it is semisimple, and because of the classification results in w12x and w7x, and it follows that H is pointed. If the coradical of H has dimension p 3 , then H is semisimple. In w6, Theorem 3.1x it is proved that there are p q 8 semisimple Hopf algebras of dimension p 3 . The intersection of the two classifications consists of the five group algebras, and we conclude that there are in total Ž p 2 q 10 p q 7.r2 Hopf algebras of dimension p 3 with a Hopf algebra filtration. This does not give the complete classification of all Hopf algebras of dimension p 3. To see this, we consider the Hopf algebra H˜Ž l. introduced at the beginning of this section. In w2, Example 3.4x it is shown that H * is not pointed, and it is clear that it is not semisimple, since that would imply that the coradical of H would be the whole of H. Thus the coradical of H is not a Hopf algebra.
