Inspired by earlier works on representations of the Temperley-Lieb algebra we introduce a novel family of representations of the algebra. This may be seen as a generalization of the so called asymmetric twin representation. The underlying…
Attention is focused on q-deformed quantum algebras with physical importance, i.e. $U_{q}(su_{2})$, $U_{q}(so_{4})$ and q-deformed Lorentz algebra. The main concern of this article is to assemble important ideas about these symmetry…
The symmetry of the Hamiltonian describing the asymmetric twin model was partially studied in earlier works, and our aim here is to generalize these results for the open transfer matrix. In this spirit we first prove, that the so called…
The symmetry algebras of certain families of quantum spin chains are considered in detail. The simplest examples possess m states per site (m\geq2), with nearest-neighbor interactions with U(m) symmetry, under which the sites transform…
We give a presentation of the centralizer algebras for tensor products of spinor representations of quantum groups via generators and relations. In the even-dimensional case, this can be described in terms of non-standard q-deformations of…
The representations of the observable algebra of a low dimensional quantum field theory form the objects of a braided tensor category. The search for gauge symmetry in the theory amounts to finding an algebra which has the same…
The Temperley-Lieb algebra may be thought of as a quotient of the Hecke algebra of type A, acting on tensor space as the commutant of the usual action of quantum sl(2) on the n-th tensor power of the 2-dimensional irreducible module. We…
Quantum algebras (also called quantum groups) are deformed versions of the usual Lie algebras, to which they reduce when the deformation parameter q is set equal to unity. From the mathematical point of view they are Hopf algebras. Their…
We complete our analysis of the Temperley-Lieb subproduct systems, which define quantum analogues of Arveson's $2$-shift, by extending the main results of the previous paper to the general parameter case. Specifically, we show that the…
The concept of a quantum algebra is made easy through the investigation of the prototype algebras $u_{qp}(2)$, $su_q(2)$ and $u_{qp}(1,1)$. The latter quantum algebras are introduced as deformations of the corresponding Lie algebras~; this…
Symmetries of trigonometric integrable two dimensional statistical face models are considered. The corresponding symmetry operators on the Hilbert space of states of the quantum version of these models define a weak *-Hopf algebra…
Let $k$ be an arbitrary field and let $q \in k\setminus\{0\}$. In this paper we use the known tilting theory for the quantum group $U_q(sl_2)$ to obtain the dimensions of simple modules for the Temperley-Lieb algebras $TL_n(q+q^{-1})$ and…
Unitary representations of the Temperley-Lieb algebra $TL_N(Q)$ on the tensor space $({\mathbb C^n})^{\otimes N}$ are considered. Two criteria are given for determining when an orthogonal projection matrix $P$ of a rank $r$ gives rise to…
We give an exact spectral equivalence between the quantum group invariant XXZ chain with arbitrary left boundary term and the same XXZ chain with purely diagonal boundary terms. This equivalence, and a further one with a link pattern…
This is a continuation of a previous joint work with Robert Weston on the quantum group invariant XXZ spin-chain (math-ph/0703085). The previous results on quasi-Hermiticity of this integrable model are briefly reviewed and then connected…
Orthogonal projections in ${\mathbb C}^n \otimes {\mathbb C}^n$ of rank one and rank two that give rise to unitary tensor space representations of the Temperley-Lieb algebra $TL_N(Q)$ are considered. In the rank one case, a complete…
Quantum algebras are a mathematical tool which provides us with a class of symmetries wider than that of Lie algebras, which are contained in the former as a special case. After a self-contained introduction to the necessary mathematical…
New sets of rank n-representations of Temperley-Lieb algebra TL_N(q) are constructed. They are characterized by two matrices obeying a generalization of the complex Hadamard property. Partial classifications for the two matrices are given,…
Let g be a simple Lie algebra and q transcendental. We consider the category C_P of finite-dimensional representations of the quantum loop algebra Uq(Lg) in which the poles of all l-weights belong to specified finite sets P. Given the data…
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…
