Restricted quantum groups as graded Hopf algebras

Quantum Algebra 2026-05-18 v1 Representation Theory

Abstract

We introduce the notion of π2\pi^2-graded Hopf algebra, where the grading is by the double groupoid of commutative diagrams of a finite groupoid π\pi. The finite dimensional representations of a π2\pi^2-graded Hopf algebra form a rigid monoidal category with a fibre functor to the category of π\pi-graded vector spaces. The main example is given by the restricted quantum groups underlying the Andrews-Baxter-Forrester restricted solid-on-solid models of statistical mechanics and, more generally, the Jimbo-Miwa-Okado models associated to classical Lie algebras.
