Abstract

Let Uq{\mathbf U}_q^- be the negative part of the quantum enveloping algebra, and σ\sigma the algebra automorphism on Uq{\mathbf U}_q^- induced from a diagram automorphism. Let Uq\underline{\mathbf U}_q^- be the quantum algebra obtained from σ\sigma, and B~\widetilde{\mathbf B} (resp. B~\widetilde{\underline{\mathbf B}}) the canonical signed basis of Uq{\mathbf U}_q^- (resp. Uq\underline{\mathbf U}_q^-). Assume that Uq{\mathbf U}_q^- is simply-laced of finite or affine type. In our previous papers [SZ1, 2], we have proved by an elementary method, that there exists a natural bijection B~σB~\widetilde{\mathbf B}^{\sigma} \simeq \widetilde{\underline{\mathbf B}} in the case where σ\sigma is admissible. In this paper, we show that such a bijection exists even if σ\sigma is not admissible, possibly except some small rank cases.
