A universality of deformed Heisenberg algebra involving the reflection operator is revealed. It is shown that in addition to the well-known infinite-dimensional representations related to parabosons, the algebra has also finite-dimensional…
Following the ideas in~\cite{yM88} and some inspiration from~\cite{KO24}, we construct a bialgebra $T_q(n)$ and a pointed Hopf algebra $UT_q(n)$ which quantize the coordinate rings of the algebra of upper triangular matrices and of the…
We extend the construction of the Hennings TQFT for ribbon Hopf algebras to the case of ribbon quasi-Hopf algebras as defined by Drinfeld. Calculations proceed in a similar fashion to the ordinary Hopf algebra case, but also require the…
A. L. Agore and G. Militaru constructed a new invariant (a ``universal coacting Hopf algebra") for some finite-dimensional binary quadratic algebras such as Lie/Leibniz algebras, associative algebras, and Poisson algebras with prominent…
This paper studies rotational virtual knot theory and its relationship with quantum link invariants. Every quantum link invariant for classical knots and links extends to an invariant of rotational virtual knots and links. The paper sets up…
We prove a variety results on tensor product factorizations of finite dimensional Hopf algebras (more generally Hopf algebras satisfying chain conditions in suitable braided categories). The results are analogs of well-known results on…
We find and classify all bialgebras and Hopf algebras or `quantum groups' of dimension $\le 4$ over the field $\Bbb F_2=\{0,1\}$. We summarise our results as a quiver, where the vertices are the inequivalent algebras and there is an arrow…
We describe three ways of modifying the relativistic Heisenberg algebra - first one not linked with quantum symmetries, second and third related with the formalism of quantum groups. The third way is based on the identification of…
We consider the restricted Jordan plane in characteristic $2$, a finite-dimensional Nichols algebra quotient of the Jordan plane that was introduced by Cibils, Lauve and Witherspoon. We extend results from \texttt{arXiv:2002.02514} on the…
We classify all self-dual Einstein four-manifolds invariant under a principal action of the three-dimensional Heisenberg group with non-degenerate orbits. The metrics are explicit and we find, in particular, that the Einstein constant can…
We briefly report on our result that the braided tensor product algebra of two module algebras $A_1,A_2$ of a quasitriangular Hopf algebra $H$ is equal to the ordinary tensor product algebra of $H_1$ with a subalgebra isomorphic to $A_2$…
Hopf algebra quantizations of 4-dimensional and 6-dimensional real classical Drinfel'd doubles are studied by following a direct "analytic" approach. The full quantization is explicitly obtained for most of the Drinfel'd doubles, except a…
We recapture Kuperberg's numerical invariant of 3-manifolds associated to a semisimple and cosemisimple Hopf algebra through a `planar algebra construction'. A result of possibly independent interest, used during the proof, which relates…
Two "quantum enveloping algebras", here denoted by $U(R)$ and $U^{\sim}(R)$, are associated in [FRTa] and [FRTb] to any Yang-Baxter operator R. The latter is only a bialgebra, in general; the former is a Hopf algebra. In this paper, we…
This paper is the second part of our work on 4-dimensional 2-handlebodies. In the first part (arXiv:math.GT/0407032) it is shown that up to certain set of local moves, connected simple coverings of B^4 branched over ribbon surfaces,…
Non-commutative Quantum Mechanics in 3D is investigated in the framework of the abelian Drinfeld twist which deforms a given Hopf algebra while preserving its Hopf algebra structure. Composite operators (of coordinates and momenta) entering…
In this paper, we aim to study the (generalized) quantum double $K^{\ast\mathrm{cop}}\bowtie_\sigma H$ determined by a (skew) pairing between finite-dimensional Hopf algebras $K^{\ast\mathrm{cop}}$ and $H$, especially the tensor category…
Twisted tensor powers of quasitriangular Hopf algebras with diagonal sub-Hopf-algebras (self-diagonal tensor powers) are introduced together with their duals and their mutual *-structures as generalizations of the Drinfel'd double as given…
Kaplansky conjectured that if H is a finite-dimensional semisimple Hopf algebra over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic 0, then H is of Frobenius type (i.e. if V is an irreducible representation of H then dimV divides dimH).…
Let $H$ be a finite dimensional pointed rank one Hopf algebra of nilpotent type. We first determine all finite dimensional indecomposable $H$-modules up to isomorphism, and then establish the Clebsch-Gordan formulas for the decompositions…
