We reconstruct the quantum enveloping superalgebra ${\bf U}(\mathfrak{gl}_{m|n})$ over $\mathbb Q(v)$ via (finite dimensional) quantum Schur superalgebras. In particular, we obtain a new basis containing the standard generators of ${\bf…
In the paper, we further realize the higher rank quantized universal enveloping algebra $U_q(sl_{n+1})$ as certain quantum differential operators in $\mathcal W_q(2n)$ defined over the quantum divided power algebra $\mathcal{A}_q(n)$ of…
The universal enveloping algebra U(g) of a Lie algebra g acts on its representation ring R through D(R), the ring of differential operators on R. A quantised universal enveloping algebra (or "quantum group") is a deformation of a universal…
We show that the quantum affine algebra $U_{q}(A_{1}^{(1)})$ and the quantum affine superalgebra $U_{q}(C(2)^{(2)})$ admit a unified description. The difference between them consists in the phase factor which is equal to 1 for…
A braided generalization of the concept of Hopf algebra (quantum group) is presented. The generalization overcomes an inherent geometrical inhomogeneity of quantum groups, in the sense of allowing completely pointless objects. All…
New solutions of the quantum Yang-Baxter equation, depending in general on three arbitrary parameters, are written down. They are based on the root of unity representations of the quantum orthosymplectic superalgebra \\U, which were found…
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…
These are the extended notes of a mini-course given at the school WinterBraids X. We discuss algebras simultaneously related to: the braid group, the Yang-Baxter equation and the representation theory of quantum groups. The main goal is to…
Motivated by our attempts to construct an analogue of the Dirac operator in the setting of $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}_n)$, we write down explicitly the braided coproduct, antipode, and adjoint action for quantum algebra $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$. The…
$*$-structures on quantum and braided spaces of the type defined via an R-matrix are studied. These include $q$-Minkowski and $q$-Euclidean spaces as additive braided groups. The duality between the $*$-braided groups of vectors and…
Recently, Kuniba, Okado and Yamada proved that the transition matrix of PBW-type bases of the positive-half of a quantized universal enveloping algebra $U_q(\mathfrak{g})$ coincides with a matrix coefficients of the intertwiner between…
We survey and compare various generalizations of braid groups for quivers with superpotential and focus on the cluster braid groups, which are introduced in a joint work with A.~King. Our motivations come from the study of cluster algebras,…
Braid groups are an important and flexible tool used in several areas of science, such as Knot Theory (Alexander's theorem), Mathematical Physics (Yang-Baxter's equation) and Algebraic Geometry (monodromy invariants). In this note we will…
We construct twisting functors for quantum group modules. First over the field $\mathbb{Q}(v)$ but later over any $\mathbb{Z} [v,v^{-1}]$-algebra. The main results in this paper are a rigerous definition of these functors, a proof that they…
We construct a braiding operator in terms of the quantum dilogarithm function based on the quantum cluster algebra. We show that it is a q-deformation of the R-operator for which hyperbolic octrahedron is assigned. Also shown is that, by…
We establish PBW type bases for $\imath$quantum groups of arbitrary finite type, using the relative braid group symmetries. Explicit formulas for root vectors are provided for $\imath$quantum groups of each rank 1 type. We show that our PBW…
We investigate the braid group representations arising from categories of representations of twisted quantum doubles of finite groups. For these categories, we show that the resulting braid group representations always factor through finite…
We describe a new technique to obtain representations of the braid group B_n from the R-matrix of a quantum deformed algebra of the one dimensional harmonic oscillator. We consider the action of the R-matrix not on the tensor product of…
As a continuation of \cite{JLO1}, we investigate the quantum virtual Grothendieck ring $\frakK_q(\g)$ associated with a finite dimensional simple Lie algebra $\g$, especially of non-simply-laced type. We establish an isomorphism $\Uppsi_Q$…
We develop a general theory of `quantum' diffeomorphism groups based on the universal comeasuring quantum group $M(A)$ associated to an algebra $A$ and its various quotients. Explicit formulae are introduced for this construction, as well…
