The $q$-Onsager algebra $O_q$ is defined by two generators and two relations, called the $q$-Dolan/Grady relations. In 2019, Baseilhac and Kolb introduced two automorphisms of $O_q$, now called the Lusztig automorphisms. Recently, we…
The $q$-Onsager algebra $\mathcal O_q$ is defined by two generators $A$, $A^*$ and two relations, called the $q$-Dolan/Grady relations. Recently P. Baseilhac and S. Kolb found an automorphism $L$ of $\mathcal O_q$, that fixes $A$ and sends…
Let $\textsf{A},\textsf{A}^*$ be the fundamental generators of the $q-$Onsager algebra. A linear basis for the $q-$Onsager algebra is known as the `zig-zag' basis [IT09]. In this letter, an attractive basis for the $q-$Onsager algebra is…
The Onsager algebra is one of the cornerstones of exactly solvable models in statistical mechanics. Starting from the generalised Clifford algebra, we demonstrate its relations to the graph Temperley-Lieb algebra, and a generalisation of…

The $q$-Onsager algebra, denoted $O_q$, is defined by two generators $W_0, W_1$ and two relations called the $q$-Dolan-Grady relations. Recently, Terwilliger introduced some elements of $O_q$, said to be alternating. These elements are…

For the class of quantum integrable models generated from the $q-$Onsager algebra, a basis of bispectral multivariable $q-$orthogonal polynomials is exhibited. In a first part, it is shown that the multivariable Askey-Wilson polynomials…
In this review, I describe a recent approach based on the representation theory of the $q-$Onsager algebra which is used to derive exact results for the XXZ open spin chain. The complete spectrum and eigenstates are obtained as rational…
The standard generators of tridiagonal algebras, recently introduced by Terwilliger, are shown to generate a new (in)finite family of mutually commuting operators which extends the Dolan-Grady construction. The involution property relies on…
The concept of cyclic tridiagonal pairs is introduced, and explicit examples are given. For a fairly general class of cyclic tridiagonal pairs with cyclicity N, we associate a pair of `divided polynomials'. The properties of this pair…

Pascal Baseilhac and Stefan Kolb recently introduced the Lusztig automorphism $L$ of the $q$-Onsager algebra $\mathcal O_q$. In this paper, we express each of $L, L^{-1}$ as a formal sum involving some quantum adjoints. In addition, (i) we…
Generalizations of the q-Onsager algebra are introduced and studied. In one of the simplest case and q=1, the algebra reduces to the one proposed by Uglov-Ivanov. In the general case and $q\neq 1$, an explicit algebra homomorphism…
