A characterization of coboundary Poisson Lie groups and Hopf algebras

Abstract

We show that a Poisson Lie group (G,π)(G,\pi) is coboundary if and only if the natural action of G×GG\times G on M=GM=G is a Poisson action for an appropriate Poisson structure on MM (the structure turns out to be the well known π+\pi _+). We analyze the same condition in the context of Hopf algebras. Quantum analogue of the π+\pi_+ structure on SU(N) is described in terms of generators and relations as an example.
