A new approach to the theory of polynomial solutions of q - difference equations is proposed. The approach is based on the representation theory of simple Lie algebras and their q - deformations and is presented here for U_q(sl(n)). First a…
This is the sequel exposition following [1]. The framework quotient algebra partition is rephrased in the language of the s-representation. Thanks to this language, a quotient algebra partition of the simplest form is established under a…
We investigate two-parameter quantum groups corresponding to the general linear and special linear Lie algebras gl_n and sl_n. We show that these quantum groups can be realized as Drinfel'd doubles of certain Hopf subalgebras with respect…
We describe a simple algorithm for computing the canonical basis of any irreducible finite-dimensional $U_{q}(so_{2n+1})$ or $U_{q}(so_{2n})$-module.
We give an account of well known calculations of the RO(Q)-graded coefficient rings of some of the most basic Q-equivariant cohomology theories, where Q is a group of order 2. One purpose is to advertise the effectiveness of the Tate…
Let $\g$ be a complex orthogonal or symplectic Lie algebra and $\g'\subset \g$ the Lie subalgebra of rank $\rk \g'=\rk \g-1$ of the same type. We give an explicit construction of generators of the Mickelsson algebra $Z_q(\g,\g')$ in terms…
In this paper, we give an RTT presentation of the twisted quantum affine algebra of type $A_{2n-1}^{(2)}$ and show that it is isomorphic to the Drinfeld new realization via the Gauss decomposition of the L-operators. This provides the first…
We define the notion of a minimal affinization of an irreducible representation of $U_q(g)$. We prove that minimal affinizations exist and establish their uniqueness in the rank 2 case.
Let $U_q(\mathfrak{g})$ denote the rational form of the quantized enveloping algebra associated to a complex simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$. Let $\lambda$ be a nonzero dominant integral weight of $\mathfrak{g}$, and let $V$ be the…
Let K be a field of positive characteristic p, let R be either a group algebra K[G] or a restricted enveloping algebra u(L), and let I be the augmentation ideal of R. We first characterize those R for which I satisfies a polynomial identity…
We study the rational solution of the Yang-Baxter equation with the supersymmetry algebra sl(2|1). The R-matrix acting in the tensor product of two arbitrary representations of the supersymmetry algebra can be represented as the product of…
A reducible representation of the Temperley-Lieb algebra is constructed on the tensor product of n-dimensional spaces. One obtains as a centraliser of this action a quantum algebra (a quasi-triangular Hopf algebra) U_q with a representation…
We propose a set of 4 recurrence relations whose linear combination gives the number of group invariants, equivalently the dimension of the invariant subspace, in the tensor product of an arbitrary number of adjoint representations of the…
We obtain minimal dimension matrix representations for each indecomposable five-dimensional Lie algebra over $\R$ and justify in each case that they are minimal. In each case a matrix Lie group is given whose matrix Lie algebra provides the…
Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity and a fixed invertible element $q^{\frac{1}{2}}$, and suppose $q+q^{-1}$ is invertible in $R$. For each planar surface $\Sigma_{0,n+1}$, we present its Kauffman bracket skein algebra over $R$ by…
The notion of classical $r$-matrix is re-examined, and a definition suitable to differential (-difference) Lie algebras, -- where the standard definitions are shown to be deficient, -- is proposed, the notion of an ${\mathcal O}$-operator.…
The Lie algebra su(2) of the classical group SU(2) is built from two commuting quon algebras for which the deformation parameter is a common root of unity. This construction leads to (i) a not very well-known polar decomposition of the…
A description of the embedding of the universal Askey--Wilson algebra, AW(3), in $U_q(sl_2)^{\otimes 3}$ is given in terms of the universal R-matrix of $U_q(sl_2)$. The generators of the centralizer of $U_q(sl_2)$ in its three-fold product…
We review the construction of the multiparametric inhomogeneous orthogonal quantum group ISO_qr(N) as a projection from SO_qr(N+2), and recall the conjugation that for N=4 leads to the quantum Poincare group. We study the properties of the…
Let $\mathcal{M}$ be a square matrix over a commutative ring and let $\mathcal{A}$ be a principal submatrix. We give relations between the determinants of $\mathcal{M}$ and $\mathcal{A}$ based on an annihilating polynomial for one of them.…
