On integrals and cointegrals for quasi-Hopf algebras

Using the machinery provided by a Frobenius algebra we show how the antipode of a quasi-Hopf algebra $H$ carries out left or right cointegrals for $H$. These formulas will allow us to find out the explicit form of an integral and a cointegral for the quantum double $D(H)$ of $H$ in terms of those of $H$, and so to answer to a conjecture of Hausser and Nill raised at the end of the nineties.
