Abstract

We define a new kind quantized enveloping algebra of a generalized Kac-Moody algebra G{\mathcal G} by adding a new generator JJ satisfying Jm=JJ^m=J for some integer mm. We denote this algebra by wUqτ(G)wU_q^{\tau}({\mathcal G}). This algebra is a weak Hopf algebra if and only if m=2,3m=2,3. In general, it is a bialgebra, and contains a Hopf subalgebra. This Hopf subalgebra is isomorphic to the usually quantum envelope algebra Uq(G)U_q({\mathcal G}) of a generalized Kac-Moody algebra G{\mathcal G}.
