A construction of the quantum affine algebra $U_q(g)$ is given in two steps. We explain how to obtain the algebra from its positive Borel subalgebra $U_q(b^+)$, using a construction similar to Drinfeld's quantum double. Then we show how the…
We show that the quantum affine algebra U_{q}(A_{1}^{(1)}) and the quantum affine superalgebra U_{q}(C(2)^{(2)}) admit unified description. The difference between them consists in the phase factor which is equal to 1 for U_{q}(A_{1}^{(1)})…
In this paper we construct weighted path models to compute Whittaker vectors in the completion of Verma modules, as well as Whittaker functions of fundamental type, for all finite-dimensional simple Lie algebras, affine Lie algebras, and…
The quantum affine $\CU_q (\hat{sl(2)}) $ symmetry is studied when $q^2$ is an even root of unity. The structure of this algebra allows a natural generalization of N=2 supersymmetry algebra. In particular it is found that the momentum…
We decompose the level-1 irreducible highest weight modules of the quantum affine algebra $U_q(\hat{sl}_n)$ with respect to the level-0 $U'_q (\hat{sl}_n)$--action defined in q-alg/9702024. The decomposition is parameterized by the skew…
We discuss the recurrence coefficients of orthogonal polynomials with respect to a generalised sextic Freud weight \[\omega(x;t,\lambda)=|x|^{2\lambda+1}\exp\left(-x^6+tx^2\right),\qquad x\in\mathbb{R},\] with parameters $\lambda>-1$ and…
We construct the basic representation of the double affine Hecke algebra at critical level $q=1$ associated to an irreducible reduced affine root system $R$ with a reduced gradient root system. For $R$ of untwisted type such a…
A $q$-analogue of the Higgs algebra, which describes the symmetry properties of the harmonic oscillator on the $2$-sphere, is obtained as the commutant of the $\mathfrak{o}_{q^{1/2}}(2) \oplus \mathfrak{o}_{q^{1/2}}(2)$ subalgebra of…
The main aim of this work is to derive the $q$-recurrence relations, $q$-partial derivative relations and summation formula of bibasic Humbert hypergeometric function $\Phi_1$ on two independent bases $q$ and $q_{1}$ of two variables and…
We describe a connection between finite--dimensional representations of quantum affine algebras and affine Hecke algebras.
The ``local'' structure of a quantum group G_q is currently considered to be an infinite-dimensional object: the corresponding quantum universal enveloping algebra U_q(g), which is a Hopf algebra deformation of the universal enveloping…
To a finite type knot invariant, a weight system can be associated, which is a function on chord diagrams satisfying so-called $4$-term relations. In the opposite direction, each weight system determines a finite type knot invariant. In…
The $q$-calculus for generic $q$ is developed and related to the deformed oscillator of parameter $q^{1/2}$. By passing with care to the limit in which $q$ is a root of unity, one uncovers the full algebraic structure of ${{\cal…

Let Uq(g) be the quantum affine superalgebra associated with an affine Kac-Moody superalgebra g which belongs to the three series osp(1|2n)^(1),sl(1|2n)^(2) and osp(2|2n)^(2). We develop vertex operator constructions for the level 1…

Let $\mathfrak g$ be a finite simple Lie algebra, and let $r$ denote the ratio of the square length of long roots to that of short roots. Let $\wp>2r$ be an integer and $\zeta$ a primitive $\wp$-th root of unity. Denote by $\mathcal…
Motivated by earlier works we employ appropriate realizations of the affine Hecke algebra and we recover previously known non-diagonal solutions of the reflection equation for the $U_{q}(\hat{gl_n})$ case. The corresponding $N$ site spin…
A representation of the Quantum Toroidal Algebra of type sl(N) is constructed on every irreducible integrable highest weight module of the Quantum Affine Algebra of type gl(N). As an intermediate step in the construction, we obtain a…
