In order to construct solutions of the braid equation we consider bijective left non-degenerate set-theoretic type solutions, which correspond to regular q-cycle coalgebras. We obtain a partial classification of the different q-cycle…
According to the Tits conjecture proved by Crisp and Paris, [CP], the subgroups of the braid group generated by proper powers of the Artin elements are presented by the commutators of generators which are powers of commuting elements. Hence…
For a simple Lie algebra L of type A, D, E we show that any Belavin-Drinfeld triple on the Dynkin diagram of L produces a collection of Drinfeld twists for Lusztig's small quantum group u_q(L). These twists give rise to new…
We unify and generalize several approaches to constructing braid group representations from finite groups, using iterated twisted tensor products. Our results hint at a relationship between the braidings on the $G$-gaugings of a pointed…
Recently, Ferri and Sciandra introduced two equivalent algebraic structures, matched pair of actions on an arbitrary Hopf algebra and Yetter-Drinfeld brace. In fact, they equivalently produce braiding operators on Hopf algebras satisfying…
We introduce classical and non-deterministic finite automata associated with representations of the braid group. After briefly reviewing basic definitions on finite automata, Coxeter's groups and the associated word problem, we turn to the…
We study the actions of a Lie group $G$ by birationally extendible automorphisms on a domain $D\subset C^n$. For a large class of such domains defined by polynomial inequalities, all automorphisms are of this type. In the cases 1) $G$ has…
We compute the quantum double, braiding and other canonical Hopf algebra constructions for the bicrossproduct Hopf algebra $H$ associated to the factorization of a finite group into two subgroups. The representations of the quantum double…
We construct a finite dimensional quiver algebra from the non-simply laced type $B$ Dynkin diagram, which we call the type $B$ zigzag algebra. This leads to a faithful categorical action of the type $B$ braid group $\mathcal{A}(B)$, acting…
In the study of induced bilinear systems, the classical Lie algebra rank condition (LARC) is known to be impractical since it requires computing the rank everywhere. On the other hand, the transitive Lie algebra condition, while more…
We observe that all classical Hamiltonian systems coming from the invariant polynomials on a reductive Lie algebra g can be integrated in a universal way. This is a consequence of Ng\^o's action of the group scheme J of regular centralizers…
In this paper, we extend the Drinfeld current realization of quantum affine algebras $U_q(\hat {\gg})$ and of the Yangians in several directions: we construct current operators for non-simple roots of ${\gg}$, define a new braid group…
In this note, we provide a short and self-contained proof that the braid group on n strands acts transitively on the set of reduced factorizations of a Coxeter element in a Coxeter group of finite rank n into products of reflections. We…
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…
Using a quiver algebra of a cyclic quiver, we construct a faithful categorical action of the extended braid group of affine type A on its bounded homotopy category of finitely generated projective modules. The algebra is trigraded and we…
The group described in this paper appeared while studying fundamental groups of complements of branch curves. It turned out that a certain quotient of the braid group acts on those fundamental groups and studying this action is essential…
The Standard Model of particle physics provides very accurate predictions of phenomena occurring at the sub-atomic level, but the reason for the choice of symmetry group and the large number of particles considered elementary, is still…
This is the first of two papers on quasi-split affine quantum symmetric pairs $\big(\widetilde{\mathbf U}(\widehat{\mathfrak g}), \widetilde{{\mathbf U}}^\imath \big)$, focusing on the real rank one case, i.e., $\mathfrak{g}=…
For a semisimple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ of rank $n$, let $\overline{U}_\zeta(\mathfrak{g})$ be the restricted quantum group of $\mathfrak{g}$ at a primitive fourth root of unity. This quantum group admits a natural Borel-induced…
In \cite{GS1} the notion of braided Yangians of Reflection Equation type was introduced. Each of these algebras is associated with an involutive or Hecke symmetry $R$. Besides, the quantum analogs of certain symmetric polynomials…
