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…

We realize the Hopf algebra $U_q({\mathfrak {sp}}_{2n})$ as an algebra of quantum differential operators on the quantum symplectic space $\mathcal{X}(f_s;\mathrm{R})$ and prove that $\mathcal{X}(f_s;\mathrm{R})$ is a…

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…

Let $U$ be a compact semisimple Lie group with complexification $G$ and associated Cartan involution $\Theta$. Let $\nu$ be an involutive complex Lie group automorphism of $G$ commuting with $\Theta$, and consider the associated semisimple…

We construct a family of q-deformations of SU(2) for complex parameters q not equal to 0. For real q, the deformation coincides with Woronowicz' compact quantum SU_q(2) group. For q not real, SU_q(2) is only a braided compact quantum group…

We introduce $*$-structures on braided groups and braided matrices. Using this, we show that the quantum double $D(U_q(su_2))$ can be viewed as the quantum algebra of observables of a quantum particle moving on a hyperboloid in q-Minkowski…

Attention is focused on q-deformed quantum algebras with physical importance, i.e. $U_{q}(su_{2})$, $U_{q}(so_{4})$ and q-deformed Lorentz algebra. The main concern of this article is to assemble important ideas about these symmetry…

The quantum Euclidean spheres, $S_q^{N-1}$, are (noncommutative) homogeneous spaces of quantum orthogonal groups, $\SO_q(N)$. The *-algebra $A(S^{N-1}_q)$ of polynomial functions on each of these is given by generators and relations which…

A universal R--matrix for the quantum Heisenberg algebra h(1)q is presented. Despite of the non--quasitriangularity of this Hopf algebra, the quantum group induced from it coincides with the quasitriangular deformation already known.

We argue that Hopf-algebra deformations of symmetries -- as encountered in non-commutative models of quantum spacetime -- carry an intrinsic content of $operator$ $entanglement$ that is enforced by the coproduct-defined notion of composite…

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a semi-simple Lie algebra with fixed root system, and $U_q(\mathfrak{g})$ the quantization of its universal enveloping algebra. Let $\mathcal{S}$ be a subset of the simple roots of $\mathfrak{g}$. We show that the…

We prove that the deformed oscillator superalgebra $W_q(n)$ (which in the Fock representation is generated essentially by $n$ pairs of $q$-bosons) is a factor algebra of the quantized universal enveloping algebra $U_q[osp(1/2n)]$. We write…

These notes are a short review of the q-deformed fuzzy sphere S^2_{q,N}, which is a ``finite'' noncommutative 2-sphere covariant under the quantum group U_q(su(2)). We discuss its real structure, differential calculus and integration for…

We present a rigid cluster model to realize the quantum group ${\bf U}_q(\mathfrak{g})$ for $\mathfrak{g}$ of type ADE. That is, we prove that there is a natural Hopf algebra isomorphism from the quantum group ${\bf U}_q(\mathfrak{g})$ to a…

For $\mu \in (0,1), c> 0,$ we identify the quantum group $SO_\mu(3)$ as the universal object in the category of compact quantum groups acting by `orientation and volume preserving isometries' in the sense of \cite{goswami2} on the natural…

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a Borcherds-Bozec algebra, $U(\mathfrak{g})$ be its universal enveloping algebra and $U_{q}(\mathfrak{g})$ be the corresponding quantum Borcherds-Bozec algebra. We show that the classical limit of $U_{q}(\mathfrak{g})$…

In this article, we obtain a complete list of inequivalent irreducible representations of the compact quantum group $U_q(2)$ for non-zero complex deformation parameters $q$, which are not roots of unity. The matrix coefficients of these…

We construct the Euclidean Hopf algebra $U_q(e^N)$ dual of $Fun(\rn_q^N\lcross SO_{q^{-1}}(N))$ by realizing it as a subalgebra of the differential algebra $\DFR$ on the quantum Euclidean space $\rn_q^N$; in fact, we extend our previous…

The properties of Hopf star operations and twisted Hopf stars operations on quantum groups are discussed in relation with the theory of representations (star representations). Invariant Hermitian sesquilinear forms (scalar products) on…

In a recent paper (1994 {\sl J.\ Phys.\ A: Math.\ Gen.\ }{\bf 27} 5907), Oh and Singh determined a Hopf structure for a generalized $q$-oscillator algebra. We prove that under some general assumptions, the latter is, apart from some…
