Let $\mathbb{F}$ be a field, and let $q\in\mathbb{F}$. The $q$-deformed Heisenberg algebra is the unital associative $\mathbb{F}$-algebra $\mathcal{H}(q)$ with generators $A,B$ and relation $AB-qBA=I$, where $I$ is the multiplicative…
As a homomorphic image of the hyperalgebra $U_{q,R}(m|n)$ associated with the quantum linear supergroup $U_\upsilon(\mathfrak{gl}_{m|n})$, we first give a presentation for the $q$-Schur superalgebra $S_{q,R}(m|n,r)$ over a commutative ring…
The physical interpretation of the main notions of the quantum group theory (coproduct, representations and corepresentations, action and coaction) is discussed using the simplest examples of $q$-deformed objects (quantum group…
We study the behaviors of quantum groups under an edge contraction. We show that there exists an explicit embedding induced by an edge contraction operation. We further conjecture that this explicit embedding is a section of an explicit…
We consider a class of homogeneous manifolds including all semisimple coadjoint orbits. We describe manifolds of that class admitting deformation q uantizations equivariant under the action of $G$ and the corresponding quantum group. We…
We describe the structure of the Whittaker or Gelfand-Graev module on a $n$-fold metaplectic cover of a $p$-adic group $G$ at both the Iwahori and spherical level. We express our answer in terms of the representation theory of a quantum…
Quantum and q-deformed algebras find their application not only in mathematical physics and field theoretical context, but also in phenomenology of particle properties. We describe (i) the use of quantum algebras U_q(su_n) corresponding to…
Phase-space realisations of an infinite parameter family of quantum deformations of the boson algebra in which the $q$-- and the $qp$--deformed algebras arise as special cases are studied. Quantum and classical models for the corresponding…
We report some observations concerning two well-known approaches to construction of quantum groups. Thus, starting from a bialgebra of inhomogeneous type and imposing quadratic, cubic or quartic commutation relations on a subset of its…
A quantum symmetric pair consists of a quantum group $\mathbf U$ and its coideal subalgebra ${\mathbf U}^{\imath}_{\boldsymbol{\varsigma}}$ with parameters $\boldsymbol{\varsigma}$ (called an $\imath$quantum group). We initiate a Hall…
A three-parametric $R$-matrix satisfying a graded Yang-Baxter equation is introduced.This $R$-matrix allows us to construct new quantum supergroups which are deformations of the supergroup $GL(1/1)$ and the universal enveloping algebra…
The structure positive of unitary irreducible representations of the noncompact $u_q(2,1)$ quantum algebra that are related to a positive discrete series is examined. With the aid of projection operators for the $su_q(2)$ subalgebra, a…
The meaning of quantum group transformation properties is discussed in some detail by comparing the (co)actions of the quantum group with those of the corresponding Lie group, both of which have the same algebraic (matrix) form of the…
Given any pair of positive integers m and n, we construct a new Hopf algebra, which may be regarded as a degenerate version of the quantum group of gl(m+n). We study its structure and develop a highest weight representation theory. The…
We classify Drinfeld twists for the quantum Borel subalgebra u_q(b) in the Frobenius-Lusztig kernel u_q(g), where g is a simple Lie algebra over C and q an odd root of unity. More specifically, we show that alternating forms on the…
Our first collection of results parametrize (filtered) actions of a quantum Borel $U_q(\mathfrak{b}) \subset U_q(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ on the path algebra of an arbitrary (finite) quiver. When $q$ is a root of unity, we give necessary and…
The properties of the deformed bosonic oscillator, and the quantum groups ${\cal U}_q(SL(2))$ and $GL_q(2)$ in the limit as their deformation parameter $q$ goes to a root of unity are investigated and interpreted physically. These…
A notion of quantum matrix (QM-) algebra generalizes and unifies two famous families of algebras from the theory of quantum groups: the RTT-algebras and the reflection equation (RE-) algebras. These algebras being generated by the…
Consider an almost-simple algebraic group G and a choice of complex root of unity q. We study the category of quasi-coherent sheaves $\mathscr{X}_q$ on the half-quantum flag variety, which itself forms a sheaf of tensor categories over the…
This text gives some results about quantum torsors. Our starting point is an old reformulation of torsors recalled recently by Kontsevich. We propose an unification of the definitions of torsors in algebraic geometry and in Poisson…
