Abstract

In a recent paper the quantum 2-sphere Sq2S^2_q was described as a quantum complex manifold. Here we consider several copies of Sq2S^2_q and derive their braiding commutation relations. The braiding is extended to the differential and to the integral calculus on the spheres. A quantum analogue of the classical anharmonic ratio of four points on the sphere is given, which is invariant under the coaction of SUq(2)SU_q(2).
