A generalised hopf algebra for solitons
This paper considers a generalisation of the idea of a Hopf algebra in which a commutative ring replaces the field in the unit and counit. It is motivated by an example from the inverse scattering formalism for solitons. We begin with the corresponding idea for groups, where the concept of the ident...

Summary: | This paper considers a generalisation of the idea of a Hopf
algebra in which a commutative ring replaces the field in the
unit and counit. It is motivated by an example from the inverse
scattering formalism for solitons. We begin with the
corresponding idea for groups, where the concept of the identity
is altered. |
