  • In this paper we introduce the notion of strong Galois H-progenerator object for a finite cocommutative Hopf quasigroup H in a symmetric monoidal category C. We prove that the set of isomorphism classes of strong Galois H-progenerator objects is a subgroup of the group of strong Galois H-objects introduced in [3]. Moreover, we show that strong Galois H-progenerator objects are preserved by strong symmetric monoidal functors and, as a consequence, we obtain an exact sequence involving the associated Galois groups. Finally, to the previous functors, if H is finite, we find exact sequences of Picard groups related with invertible left H-(quasi)modules and an isomorphism Pic(HMod) ≅ Pic(C)⊕G(H∗) where Pic(HMod) is the Picard group of the category of left H-modules, Pic(C) the Picard group of C, and G(H∗) the group of group-like morphisms of the dual of H.

  • The classical group completion theorem states that under a certain condition the homology of ${\Omega}BM$ is computed by inverting ${\pi}_0M$ in the homology of M. McDuff and Segal extended this theorem in terms of homology fibration. Recently, more general group completion theorem for simplicial spaces was developed. In this paper, we construct a symmetric monoidal 2-category ${\mathcal{A}}$. The 1-morphisms of ${\mathcal{A}}$ are generated by three atomic 2-dimensional CW-complexes and the set of 2-morphisms is given by the group of path components of the space of homotopy equivalences of 1-morphisms. The main part of the paper is to compute the homotopy type of the group completion of the classifying space of ${\mathcal{A}}$, which is shown to be homotopy equivalent to ${\mathbb{Z}}{\times}BAut^+_{\infty}$.

  • Let H be a cocommutative faithfully flat Hopf quasigroup in a strict symmetric monoidal category with equalizers. In this paper we introduce the notion of (strong) Galois H-object and we prove that the set of isomorphism classes of (strong) Galois H-objects is a (group) monoid which coincides, in the Hopf algebra setting, with the Galois group of H-Galois objects introduced by Chase and Sweedler.
