Derivations of Quantum and Involution Generalized Weyl Algebras

Abstract

We classify the derivations of degree-one generalized Weyl algebras over a univariate Laurent polynomial ring. In particular, our results cover the Weyl-Hayashi algebra, a quantization of the first Weyl algebra arising as a primitive factor algebra of Uq+(so5)U_q^+(\mathfrak{so}_5), and a family of algebras which localize to the group algebra of the infinite group with generators xx and yy, subject to the relation xy=y1x.xy = y^{-1}x.
