We review the main ideas underlying the emerging theory of Yangians -- the new type of hidden symmetry in string-inspired models. Their classification by quivers is a far-going generalization of simple Lie algebras classification by Dynkin…
We construct a realization of the elliptic quantum algebra $U_{q,p}(\hat{sl_N})$ for any given level $k$ in terms of free boson fields and their twisted partners. It can be considered as the elliptic deformation of the Wakimoto realization…
We show that some factors of the universal R-matrix generate a family of twistings for the standard Hopf structure of any quantized contragredient Lie (super)algebra of finite growth. As an application we prove that any two isomorphic…
We prove that the standard Drinfeld-Jimbo coproducts for Yangians and quantum affine algebras factorize through their truncated quotients in the case of $\mathfrak{sl}_2(\mathbb{C})$. As an auxiliary result, we give formulas for the…
We classify the irreducible finite-dimensional representations of the twisted quantum affine algebras.
We survey some recent development on the theory of $\imath$Hall algebras. Starting from $\imath$quivers (aka quivers with involutions), we construct a class of 1-Gorenstein algebras called $\imath$quiver algebras, whose semi-derived Hall…
We propose a new dynamical reflection algebra, distinct from the previous dynamical boundary algebra and semi-dynamical reflection algebra. The associated Yang-Baxter equations, coactions, fusions, and commuting traces are derived. Explicit…
We formulate a precise connection between the new Drinfeld presentation of a quantum affine algebra $U_q\widehat{\mathfrak{g}}$ and the new Drinfeld presentation of affine coideal subalgebras of split type recently discovered by Lu and…
The Yangian double $\text{DY}_{\hbar}(\mathfrak{g}_N)$ is introduced for the classical types of $\mathfrak{g}_N=\mathfrak{o}_{2n+1}$, $\mathfrak{sp}_{2n}$, $\mathfrak{o}_{2n}$. Via the Gauss decomposition of the generator matrix, the…
We discuss homogeneous Yang-Baxter deformations of integrable sigma models in terms of twist operators. We show that the twist operators behave as the classical analogue of a Drinfeld twist, for all abelian and almost abelian deformations.…
For a finite central extension $\tilde{G}$ of a classical $p$-adic reductive group, we consider the endomorphism algebra of some induced projective generator \`a la Bernstein of the category of smooth representations of $\tilde{G}$. In the…
Two general families of new quantum deformed current algebras are proposed and identified both as infinite Hopf family of algebras, a structure which enable one to define ``tensor products'' of these algebras. The standard quantum affine…
We develop a current-based construction of generalized symmetries in $(3+1)$D twisted $BF$ topological quantum field theories (TQFTs), focusing on intrinsically non-invertible higher-form symmetries and their mixed anomalies. Starting from…
Let q be a finite-dimensional Lie algebra and $\theta$ an automorphism of q of order m. We extend $\theta$ to an automorphism of the loop algebra of q and consider the fixed-point subalgebra $q[t,t^{-1}]^{\theta}$. Using a splitting of…
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 give explicit actions of Drinfeld generators on Gelfand-Tsetlin bases of super Yangian modules associated with skew Young diagrams. In particular, we give another proof that these representations are irreducible. We study irreducible…
We show an algebra morphism between Yangians and some finite W-algebras. This correspondence is nicely illustrated in the framework of the Non Linear Schrodinger hierarchy. For such a purpose, we give an explicit realization of the Yangian…
Analogs of the classical Sylvester theorem have been known for matrices with entries in noncommutative algebras including the quantized algebra of functions on GL(N) and the Yangian for gl(N). We prove a version of this theorem for the…
An explicit isomorphism between the $R$-matrix and Drinfeld presentations of the quantum affine algebra in type $A$ was given by Ding and I. Frenkel (1993). We show that this result can be extended to types $B$, $C$ and $D$ and give a…
We use the $q$-characters to compute explicit expressions of the $R$-matrices for first fundamental representations of all types of twisted quantum affine algebras.
