We show that there is a consistent polynomial quantization of the coordinate ring of a basic nilpotent coadjoint orbit of a semisimple Lie group. We also show, at least in the case of a nilpotent orbit in sl(2,R)*, that any such…

The Goldman Lie algebra of an oriented surface was defined by Goldman. By the natural involution that opposes the orientation of curves, the Goldman Lie algebra becomes a $\mathbb{Z}_{2}$-graded Lie algebra. Its even part is isomorphic to…

We propose a novel quantum integrable model for every non-simply laced simple Lie algebra ${\mathfrak g}$, which we call the folded integrable model. Its spectra correspond to solutions of the Bethe Ansatz equations obtained by folding the…
