Abstract: The notion of kernel of a representation of a semisimple Hopf algebra is introduced. Similar properties to those of the kernel of a group representation are proved in some special cases. In particular, every normal Hopf subalgebra of a semisimple Hopf algebra $ H$ is the kernel of a representation of $ H$. The maximal normal Hopf subalgebras of $ H$ are described.
