A Hopf Algebra on Permutations Arising from Super-Shuffle Product

Abstract

In this paper, we first prove that any atom of a permutation obtained by the super-shuffle product of two permutations can only consist of some complete atoms of the original two permutations. Then, we prove that the super-shuffle product and the cut-box coproduct on permutations are compatible, which makes it a bialgebra. As this algebra is graded and connected, it is a Hopf algebra.
