Quantum affine reflection algebras are coideal subalgebras of quantum affine algebras that lead to trigonometric reflection matrices (solutions of the boundary Yang-Baxter equation). In this paper we use the quantum affine reflection…
We present a generalization of the theory of quantum symmetric pairs as developed by Kolb and Letzter. We introduce a class of generalized Satake diagrams that give rise to (not necessarily involutive) automorphisms of the second kind of…
A trick to obtain a systematic solution to the set-theoretical reflection equation is presented from a known one to the Yang-Baxter equation. Examples are given from crystals and geometric crystals associated to the quantum affine algebra…
We present the `Heisenberg picture' of the reflection algebra by explicitly constructing the boundary Yangian symmetry of an AdS/CFT superstring which ends on a boundary with non-trivial degrees of freedom and which preserves the full bulk…
We study solutions of the reflection equation associated with the quantum affine algebra $U_{q}(\hat{gl}(N))$ and obtain diagonal K-operators in terms of the Cartan elements of a quotient of $U_{q}(gl(N))$. We also consider intertwining…
We study the double Yangian associated with the Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{gl}_{m|n}$. Our main focus is on establishing the Poincar\'{e}-Birkhoff-Witt Theorem for the double Yangian and constructing its central elements in the form of…
The twisted q-Yangians are coideal subalgebras of the quantum affine algebra associated with gl(N). We prove a classification theorem for finite-dimensional irreducible representations of the twisted q-Yangians associated with the…

Reflection equation algebras and related U_q(g)-comodule algebras appear in various constructions of quantum homogeneous spaces and can be obtained via transmutation or equivalently via twisting by a cocycle. In this paper we investigate…
We introduce two subalgebras in the type A quantum affine algebra which are coideals with respect to the Hopf algebra structure. In the classical limit q -> 1 each subalgebra specializes to the enveloping algebra U(k), where k is a fixed…
In the context of connections between algebras coming from quantum integrable systems and algebras associated to the orthogonal polynomials of the Askey scheme, we prove that the truncated reflection algebra attached to the Yangian of sl(2)…
In this short note, we compute the classical limits of the quantum toroidal and the affine Yangian algebras of sl(n) by generalizing our arguments for gl(1) from arXiv:1404.5240. These results were mentioned as motivation in the recent…
This is a condensed write-up of a talk delivered at the Ramanujan International Symposium on Kac-Moody Lie algebras and Applications in Chennai in January 2002. The talk introduces special coideal subalgebras of quantum affine algebras…
Within the quantum affine algebra representation theory we construct linear covariant operators that generate the Askey-Wilson algebra. It has the property of a coideal subalgebra, which can be interpreted as the boundary symmetry algebra…
We investigate the possible regular solutions of the boundary Yang-Baxter equation for the vertex models associated with the $A_{n-1}^{(1)}$ affine Lie algebra. We have classified them in two classes of solutions. The first class consists…
We investigate the possible regular solutions of the boundary Yang-Baxter equation for the vertex models associated with the graded version of the $A_{n-1}^{(1)}$ affine Lie algebra, the $U_{q}[sl(m|n)^{(1)}]$ vertex model, also known as…
Quadratic algebras related to the reflection equations are introduced. They are quantum group comodule algebras. The quantum group $F_q(GL(2))$ is taken as the example. The properties of the algebras (center, representations, realizations,…
We define a class of quantum linear Galois algebras which include the universal enveloping algebra Uq(gln), the quantum Heisenberg Lie algebra and other quantum orthogonal Gelfand-Zetlin algebras of type A, the subalgebras of G-invariants…
The quantum affine symmetry of the sine-Gordon theory at q^2 = 1, which occurs at the reflectionless points, is studied. Conserved currents that correspond to the closure of simple root generators are considered, and shown to be local. We…
We study a class of quantized enveloping algebras, called twisted Yangians, associated with the symmetric pairs of types B, C, D in Cartan's classification. These algebras can be regarded as coideal subalgebras of the extended Yangian for…
