Let $m$, $n$ be two positive integers, $\Bbbk$ be an algebraically closed field with char($\Bbbk)\nmid mn$. Radford constructed an $mn^{2}$-dimensional Hopf algebra $R_{mn}(q)$ such that its Jacobson radical is not a Hopf ideal. We show…
We give a new factorisable ribbon quasi-Hopf algebra U, whose underlying algebra is that of the restricted quantum group for sl(2) at a 2p'th root of unity. The representation category of U is conjecturally ribbon-equivalent to that of the…
We classify Drinfeld twists for the quantum Borel subalgebra u_q(b) in the Frobenius-Lusztig kernel u_q(g), where g is a simple Lie algebra over C and q an odd root of unity. More specifically, we show that alternating forms on the…
Twist deformation U_F(g) is equivalent to the quantum group Fun_d(G#) and has two preferred bases: the one originating from U(g) and that of the coordinate functions on the dual Lie group G#. The costructure of the Hopf algebra U_F(g) is…
As a quantum affinization, the quantum toroidal algebra is defined in terms of its "left" and "right" halves, which both admit shuffle algebra presentations. In the present paper, we take an orthogonal viewpoint, and give shuffle algebra…
We give a Hopf-algebraic formulation of the $R^*$-operation, which is a canonical way to render UV and IR divergent Euclidean Feynman diagrams finite. Our analysis uncovers a close connection to Brown's Hopf algebra of motic graphs. Using…
We describe the twist quantization of string worldsheet theory, which unifies the description of quantization and the target space symmetry, based on the twisting of Hopf and module algebras. We formulate a method of decomposing a twist…
We study the relationships among the various forms of the $q$ oscillator algebra and consider the conditions under which it supports a Hopf structure. We also present a generalization of this algebra together with its corresponding Hopf…
Hopf algebra structure on the differential algebra of the extended $q$-plane is defined. An algebra of forms which is obtained from the generators of the extended $q$-plane is introduced and its Hopf algebra structure is given.
Let $H$ be a Hopf algebra in a braided rigid monoidal category $\mathcal{V}$ admitting a coend $C$. We define a ``coend element'' of $H$ to be a morphism from $C$ to $H$. We then study certain coend elements of $H$, which generalize…
We generalise gauge theory on a graph so that the gauge group becomes a finite-dimensional ribbon Hopf algebra, the graph becomes a ribbon graph, and gauge-theoretic concepts such as connections, gauge transformations and observables are…
A modular tensor category is a non-degenerate ribbon finite tensor category. And a ribbon factorizable Hopf algebra is exactly the Hopf algebra whose finite-dimensional representations form a modular tensor category. The goal of this paper…
Non-commutative torsors (equivalently, two-cocycles) for a Hopf algebra can be used to twist comodule algebras. After surveying and extending the literature on the subject, we prove a theorem that affords a presentation by generators and…
In this paper we describe the right-sided combinatorial Hopf structure of three Hopf algebras appearing in the context of renormalization in quantum field theory: the non-commutative version of the Fa\`a di Bruno Hopf algebra, the…
We construct five new quantum Newton-Hooke Hopf algebras with the use of Abelian twist procedure. Further we demonstrate that the corresponding deformed space-times with quantum space and classical time are periodic or expanding in time.
We introduce a twisted quantum affine algebra associated to each simply laced finite dimensional simple Lie algebra. This new algebra is a Hopf algebra with a Drinfeld-type comultiplication. We obtain this algebra by considering its vertex…
This paper describes some algebraic properties of the species of finite topological quandles. We construct two twisted bialgebra structures on this species, one of the first kind and one of the second kind. The obstruction for the structure…
We study the restriction of representations of Cayley-Hamilton algebras to subalgebras. This theory is applied to determine tensor products and branching rules for representations of quantum groups at roots of 1.
We discuss some general results on finite-dimensional Hopf algebras over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic zero and then apply them to Hopf algebras H of dimension p^{3} over k. There are 10 cases according to the group-like…
Transformation of operator algebras under Hopf algebra twist is studied. It is shown that that adjoint module algebras are stable under the twist. Applications to vector fields on non-commutative space-time are considered.
