The inverse of a bijective antipode #
For a Hopf algebra with explicitly supplied bijective antipode, inverseAntipode
is its inverse linear map. It reverses multiplication, and its two inverse laws
allow the contragredient actions through S and S⁻¹ to cancel on mixed double
duals. No commutativity or star structure is assumed.
Bijectivity holds in particular when S² is an inner automorphism a ↦ g a g⁻¹
(antipode_bijective_of_antipode_antipode), as for the group-like element K⁻¹ of
U_q(sl₂).
The construction uses Mathlib's LinearEquiv.ofBijective. See C. Kassel,
Quantum Groups, Chapter III, for inverse-antipode duality.
If the square of the antipode is the inner automorphism a ↦ g a g⁻¹ of a unit g, then
the antipode is bijective.

Instances For
Applying the antipode after its inverse gives the original element.
Applying the inverse antipode after the antipode gives the original element.
The inverse antipode preserves the unit.
The inverse antipode reverses multiplication.
The inverse antipode fixes the scalar algebra map.
The inverse antipode cancels the first leg of the reversed coproduct. This is the antipode identity used for evaluation of an inverse-antipode contragredient.
The inverse antipode cancels the second leg of the reversed coproduct. This is the antipode identity used for coevaluation of an inverse-antipode contragredient.
