In this paper, we study properties of the coefficients appearing in the $q$-series expansion of $\prod_{n\ge 1}[(1-q^n)/(1-q^{pn})]^\delta$, the infinite Borwein product for an arbitrary prime $p$, raised to an arbitrary positive real power…
We prove some unique factorization results for tensor products of free quantum group factors. They are type III analogues of factorization results for direct products of bi-exact groups established by Ozawa and Popa. In the proof, we first…
The quantum group analogue of the normalizer of SU(1,1) in SL(2,C) is an important and non-trivial example of a non-compact quantum group. The general theory of locally compact quantum groups in the operator algebra setting implies the…
Field-theoretic models for fields taking values in quantum groups are investigated. First we consider $SU_q(2)$ $\sigma$ model ($q$ real) expressed in terms of basic notions of noncommutative differential geometry. We discuss the case in…
We construct a $U_q(\mathrm{so}(2n+1))$-equivariant local star-product on the complex sphere $\mathbb{S}^{2n}$ as a Non-Levi conjugacy class $SO(2n+1)/SO(2n)$.
The theory of q-analogs develops many combinatorial formulas for finite vector spaces over a finite field with q elements--all in analogy with formulas for finite sets (which are the special case of q=1). A direct-sum decomposition of a…
We construct finite $R$-matrices for the first fundamental representation $V$ of two-parameter quantum groups $U_{r,s}(\mathfrak{g})$ for classical $\mathfrak{g}$, both through the decomposition of $V\otimes V$ into irreducibles…
An explicit form of the generators of quantum and ordinary semisimple algebras for an arbitrary finite-dimensional representation is found. The generators corresponding to the simple roots are obtained in terms of a solution of a system of…
We classify the compact quantum groups $A_u(Q)$ (resp. $B_u(Q)$) up to isomorphism when $Q>0$ (resp. when $Q \bar{Q} \in {\mathbb R} I_n$). We show that the general $A_u(Q)$'s and $B_u(Q)$'s for arbitrary $Q$ have explicit decompositions…
A simpler definition for a class of two-parameter quantum groups associated to semisimple Lie algebras is given in terms of Euler form. Their positive parts turn out to be 2-cocycle deformations of each other under some conditions. An…
In this paper, we present explicit actions of braid group on the universal enveloping superalgebra ${\boldsymbol U}(\mathfrak{{q}}_n)$ and the quantum queer superalgebra ${\boldsymbol U}_{\!{v}}(\mathfrak{{q}}_{n})$. Then we provide a new…
The quantum supergroup OSPq(1|2n) is studied systematically. A Haar functional is constructed, and an algebraic version of the Peter - Weyl theory is extended to this quantum supergroup. Quantum homogeneous superspaces and quantum…
In this article we use a parametrized version of the FRT construction to construct two new coquasitriangular Hopf algebras. The first one, $\widehat{SL_q(2)}$, is a quantization of the coordinate ring on affine $SL(2)$. We show that there…
We review known real forms of the quantum orthogonal groups SO_q(N). New *-conjugations are then introduced and we contruct all real forms of quantum orthogonal groups. We thus give an RTT formulation of the *-conjugations on SO_q(N) that…
Let U be the quantum group associated to a symmetrizable generalized Cartan matrix. We give a realization of U from the category of the representations of certain product valued quiver.
We construct a braid group action on quantum covering groups. We further use this action to construct a PBW basis for the positive half in finite type which is pairwise-orthogonal under the inner product. This braid group action is induced…
We provide an alternative approach to the Faddeev-Reshetikhin-Takhtajan presentation of the quantum group U_q(g), with L-operators as generators and relations ruled by an R-matrix. We look at U_q(g) as being generated by the quantum Borel…
Using $\star$-product on Co-adjoint orbits (K-orbits) of the $\MD_4$- groups we obtain quantum half-planes, quantum hyperbolic cylinders, quantum hyperbolic paraboloids...via Fedosov deformation quantization. From this we have corresponding…
We show that the BMN operators in D=4 N=4 super Yang Mills theory proposed as duals of stringy oscillators in a plane wave background have a natural quantum group construction in terms of the quantum deformation of the SO(6) $R$ symmetry.…
Let $ \mathfrak{g} $ be an untwisted affine Kac-Moody algebra over the field $ K \, $, and let $ U_q(\mathfrak{g}) $ be the associated quantum enveloping algebra; let $ \mathfrak{U}_q(g) $ be the Lusztig's integer form of $…
