\newcommand{\mathds}{\mathbb}[/math]
Given a finite group [math]H[/math], setting [math]A=C^*(H)[/math], prove that the maps
[[math]]
\Delta:A\to A\otimes A
[[/math]]
[[math]]
\varepsilon:A\to\mathbb C
[[/math]]
[[math]]
S:A\to A^{opp}
[[/math]]
given by the formulae [math]\Delta(g)=g\otimes g[/math], [math]\varepsilon(g)=1[/math], [math]S(g)=g^{-1}[/math] and linearity, are subject to the same conditions as above, namely
[[math]]
(\varepsilon\otimes id)\Delta=(id\otimes\varepsilon)\Delta=id
[[/math]]
[[math]]
m(S\otimes id)\Delta=m(id\otimes S)\Delta=\varepsilon(.)1
[[/math]]
in usual tensor product notation, along with the extra condition [math]S^2=id[/math].
