SL(2,Z)-action for ribbon quasi-Hopf algebras

Understand

We study the universal Hopf algebra L of Majid and Lyubashenko in the case that the underlying ribbon category is the category of representations of a finite dimensional ribbon quasi-Hopf algebra A.

• We show that L=A* with coadjoint action and compute the Hopf algebra structure morphisms of L in terms of the defining data of A.
• We give explicitly the condition on A which makes Rep(A) factorisable and compute Lyubashenko's projective SL(2,Z)-action on the centre of A in this case.
• The point of this exercise is to provide the groundwork for the applications to ribbon categories arising in logarithmic conformal field theories - in particular symplectic fermions and W_p-models - and to test a conjectural non-semisimple Verlinde formula.
