An algebraic quantum group is a multiplier Hopf algebra with integrals. In this paper we will develop a theory of algebraic quantum hypergroups. It is very similar to the theory of algebraic quantum groups, except that the comultiplication…
Suppose that we have a semisimple, connected, simply connected algebraic group $G$ with corresponding Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$. There is a Hopf pairing between the universal enveloping algebra $U(\mathfrak{g})$ and the coordinate ring…
Affinely closed homogeneous spaces G/H, i.e., affine homogeneous spaces that admit only the trivial affine embedding, are characterized for any affine algebraic group G. As a corollary, a description of affine G-algebras with finitely…
Given a quantum subgroup $G\subset U_n$ and a number $k\leq n$ we can form the homogeneous space $X=G/(G\cap U_k)$, and it follows from the Stone-Weierstrass theorem that $C(X)$ is the algebra generated by the last $n-k$ rows of coordinates…
Right coideal subalgebras are interesting substructures of Hopf algebras such as quantum groups. Examples of right coideal subalgebras are the quantum Borel part as well as quantum symmetric pairs. Classifying right coideal subalgebras is a…
Let X=G/H be the quotient of a connected reductive algebraic C-group G defined over the field of complex numbers C by a finite subgroup H. We describe the topological fundamental group of the homogeneous space X, which is nonabelian when H…
A Frobenius algebra is a finite-dimensional algebra $A$ which comes equipped with a coassociative, counital comultiplication map $\Delta$ that is an $A$-bimodule map. Here, we examine comultiplication maps for generalizations of Frobenius…
Starting from a recently-introduced algebraic structure on spin foam models, we define a Hopf algebra by dividing with an appropriate quotient. The structure, thus defined, naturally allows for a mirror analysis of spin foam models with…
The recent result of Brown and Zhang establishing Poincare duality in the Hochschild (co)homology of a large class of Hopf algebras is extended to right coideal subalgebras over which the Hopf algebra is faithfully flat, and applied to the…
Given an affine algebraic variety V and a quantization A of its coordinate ring, it is conjectured that the primitive ideal space of A can be expressed as a topological quotient of V. Evidence in favor of this conjecture is discussed, and…
Under the assumption that a residually finite dimensional Hopf algebra H has an Artinian ring of fractions it is proved that H is a flat module over any right coideal subalgebra satisfying a polynomial identity and is faithfully flat over…
Given a discrete quantum group A we construct a certain Hopf *-algebra AP which is a unital *-subalgebra of the multiplier algebra of A. The structure maps for AP are inherited from M(A) and thus the construction yields a compactification…
A quasi-Hopf algebra $H$ can be seen as a commutative algebra $A$ in the centre $\mathcal Z(H-Mod)$ of $H-Mod$. We show that the category of $A$-modules in $\mathcal Z(H-Mod)$ is equivalent (as a monoidal category) to $H-Mod$. This can be…
Quantum homogeneous supervector bundles arising from the quantum general linear supergoup are studied. The space of holomorphic sections is promoted to a left exact covariant functor from a category of modules over a quantum parabolic…
In this paper we introduce a new quantum algebra which specializes to the $2$-toroidal Lie algebra of type $A_1$. We prove that this quantum toroidal algebra has a natural triangular decomposition, a (topological) Hopf algebra structure and…
The quantum groups of finite and affine type $A$ admit geometric realizations in terms of partial flag varieties of finite and affine type $A$. Recently, the quantum group associated to partial flag varieties of finite type $B/C$ is shown…
Quantum algebras (also called quantum groups) are deformed versions of the usual Lie algebras, to which they reduce when the deformation parameter q is set equal to unity. From the mathematical point of view they are Hopf algebras. Their…
We prove that the quantum cohomology ring of any minuscule or cominuscule homogeneous space, once localized at the quantum parameter, has a non trivial involution mapping Schubert classes to multiples of Schubert classes. This can be stated…
Let $X$ be a rational homogeneous space and let $QH^*(X)_{loc}^\times$ be the group of invertible elements in the small quantum cohomology ring of $X$ localised in the quantum parameters. We generalise results of arXiv:math/0609796 and…
We discuss quantum deformation of the affine transformation group and its Lie algebra. It is shown that the quantum algebra has a non-cocommutative Hopf algebra structure, simple realizations and quantum tensor operators. The deformation of…
