[math]
\newcommand{\mathds}{\mathbb}[/math]
Given a finite dimensional Hopf algebra [math]A[/math], prove that its dual [math]A^*[/math] is a Hopf algebra too, with structural maps as follows:
[[math]]
\Delta^t:A^*\otimes A^*\to A^*
[[/math]]
[[math]]
\varepsilon^t:\mathbb C\to A^*
[[/math]]
[[math]]
m^t:A^*\to A^*\otimes A^*
[[/math]]
[[math]]
u^t:A^*\to\mathbb C
[[/math]]
[[math]]
S^t:A^*\to A^*
[[/math]]
Also, check that [math]A[/math] is commutative if and only if [math]A^*[/math] is cocommutative, and also discuss what happens in the cases [math]A=C(G)[/math] and [math]A=C^*(H)[/math], with [math]G,H[/math] being finite groups.
