In this paper, we initiate a study into the explicit construction of irreducible representations of the Hecke algebra $H_n(q)$ of type $A_{n-1}$ in the non-generic case where $q$ is a root of unity. The approach is via the Specht modules of…

We generalize the theory of the second invariant cohomology group $H^2_{\rm inv}(G)$ for finite groups $G$, developed in [Da2,Da3,GK], to the case of affine algebraic groups $G$, using the methods of [EG1,EG2,G]. In particular, we show that…

The minimal irreducible representations of $U_q[gl(m|n)]$, i.e. those irreducible representations that are also irreducible under $U_q[osp(m|n)]$ are investigated and shown to be affinizable to give irreducible representations of the…

An example of a finite dimensional factorizable ribbon Hopf C-algebra is given by a quotient H=u_q(g) of the quantized universal enveloping algebra U_q(g) at a root of unity q of odd degree. The mapping class group M_{g,1} of a surface of…

We show that, if there exists a realization of a Hopf algebra $H$ in a $H$-module algebra $A$, then one can split their cross-product into the tensor product algebra of $A$ itself with a subalgebra isomorphic to $H$ and commuting with $A$.…

Shiraishi's two parameter generalization of $U_{q}(sl(2))$ to $U_{q,p}(sl(2))$ involving an elliptic function is considered. The generators are mapped non-linearly on those of $U_{q}(sl(2))$. This gives directly the irreducible…

For transcendental values of $q$ all bicovariant first order differential calculi on the coordinate Hopf algebras of the quantum groups $SL_q(n+1)$ and $Sp_q(2n)$ are classified. It is shown that the irreducible bicovariant first order…

We first review some invariant theoretic results about the finite subgroups of SU(2) in a quick algebraic way by using the McKay correspondence and quantum affine Cartan matrices. By the way it turns out that some parameters (a,b,h;p,q,r)…

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…

The SU(2) TQFT representation of the mapping class group of a closed surface of genus g, at a root of unity of prime order, is shown to be irreducible. Some examples of reducible representations are also given.

Let H denote a semisimple Hopf algebra over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic 0. We show that the degree of any irreducible representation of H whose character belongs to the center of H^* must divide the dimension of H .

We construct a new family of irreducible modules over any basic classical affine Kac-Moody Lie superalgebra which are induced from modules over the Heisenberg subalgebra. We also obtain irreducible deformations of these modules for the…

The second author constructed a topological ribbon Hopf algebra from the unrolled quantum group associated with the super Lie algebra $\mathfrak{sl}(2|1)$. We generalize this fact to the context of unrolled quantum groups and construct the…

We give presentations, in terms of the generators and relations, for the reflection equation algebras of type $GL_n$ and $SL_n$, i.e., the covariantized algebras of the dual Hopf algebras of the small quantum groups of $\mathfrak{gl}_n$ and…

We try to classify Hopf algebras with the Chevalley property according to their derived representation type. We show that a finite-dimensional indecomposable non-semisimple Hopf algebra $H$ with the Chevalley property is derived discrete if…

The structure of irreducible representations of (restricted) U_q(sl(3)) at roots of unity is understood within the Gelfand--Zetlin basis. The latter needs a weakened definition for non integrable representations, where the quadratic Casimir…

We propose a new non-commutative generalization of the representation variety and the character variety of a knot group. Our strategy is to reformulate the construction of the algebra of functions on the space of representations in terms of…

Irreducible representations of quantum groups $SL_q(2)$ (in Woronowicz' approach) were classified in J.Wang, B.Parshall, Memoirs AMS 439 in the~case of $q$ being an~odd root of unity. Here we find the~irreducible representations for all…
