Abstract

Let H be a Hopf algebra. Any finite-dimensional lifting of \(V\in {}^{H}_{H}\mathcal {YD}\) arising as a cocycle deformation of \(A={\mathfrak {B}}(V)\#H\) defines a twist in the Hopf algebra \(A^*\), via dualization. We follow this recipe to write down explicit examples and show that it extends known techniques for defining twists. We also contribute with a detailed survey about twists in braided categories.
