A fundamental feature of quantum groups is that many come in pairs of mutually dual objects, like finite-dimensional Hopf algebras and their duals, or quantisations of function algebras and of universal enveloping algebras of Poisson-Lie…
Let $ G^\tau $ be a connected simply connected semisimple algebraic group, endowed with generalized Sklyanin-Drinfel'd structure of Poisson group, let $ H^\tau $ be its dual Poisson group. By means of quantum double construction and…
Various dualities are summarized. Based on the universal wave-particle duality, along an opposite direction of the developed quantum mechanics, we use a method where the wave quantities frequency and wave length are replaced on various…
We explicitly give the relations between the hypergeometric solutions of the general hypergeometric equation and their duals, as well as similar relations for q-hypergeometric equations. They form a family of very general identities for…
This is a generalization of the classic work of Beilinson, Lusztig and MacPherson. In this paper (and an Appendix) we show that the quantum algebras obtained via a BLM-type stabilization procedure in the setting of partial flag varieties of…
For a complex or real algebraic group G, with g:=Lie(G), quantizations of global type are suitable Hopf algebras F_q[G] or U_q(g) over C[q,q^{-1}]. Any such quantization yields a structure of Poisson group on G, and one of Lie bialgebra on…
A general theorem due to Howe of dual action of a classical group and a certain non-associative algebra on a space of symmetric or alternating tensors is reformulated in a setting of second quantization, and familiar examples in atomic and…
We construct quantum supersymmetric pairs $({\bold U},{\bold U}^\imath)$ of type AIII and elucidate their fundamental properties. An $\imath$Schur duality between the $\imath$quantum supergroup ${\bold U}^\imath$ and the Hecke algebra of…
Discrete quantum groups were introduced as duals of compact quantum groups by Podle\'s and Woronowicz in 1990. They have been studied intrinsically by Effros and Ruan (1994) and by the author (1996). In a more recent note (2025), we have…
Duality between the coloured quantum group and the coloured quantum algebra corresponding to GL(2) is established. The coloured L^{\pm} functionals are constructed and the dual algebra is derived explicitly. These functionals are then…
We introduce uniparametric and multiparametric quantisations of the general linear supergroup, in the form of "quantised function algebras", both in a formal setting - yielding "quantum formal series Hopf superalgebras", a` la Drinfeld -…
Two super-analogs of the Schur-Weyl duality are considered: the duality of actions in $(\mathbb{C}^{m|n})^{\otimes N}$ of the Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{gl}(m,n)$ and the symmetric group $S_N$, and the duality of actions of the Lie…
We extend a quantized skew Howe duality result for Type $\mathbf{A}$ algebras to orthogonal types via a seesaw. We develop an operator commutant version of the First Fundamental Theorem of invariant theory for $U_q(\mathfrak{so}_n)$ using a…
The Hodge dual operator, recently introduced for supermanifolds, is used to reformulate super Yang-Mills and supergravity in $D=4$. We first recall the definition of the Hodge dual operator for flat and curved supermanifolds. Then we show…
Dual canonical bases of the quantum general linear supergroup are constructed which are invariant under the multiplication of the quantum Berezinian. By setting the quantum Berezinian to identity, we obtain dual canonical bases of the…
A bicovariant calculus of differential operators on a quantum group is constructed in a natural way, using invariant maps from \fun\ to \uqg\ , given by elements of the pure braid group. These operators --- the `reflection matrix' $Y \equiv…
We show that the geometric notion of duality behind $T$-duality, between two string theories on different manifolds $E, \hat{E}$ in the sense of \cite{BHM1}\cite{BHM2}, is precisely that of Lie bialgebroids due to Mackenzie and Xu…
The differential calculus on the quantum supergroup GL$_q(1| 1)$ was introduced by Schmidke {\it et al}. (1990 {\it Z. Phys. C} {\bf 48} 249). We construct a differential calculus on the quantum supergroup GL$_q(1| 1)$ in a different way…
We define a natural concept of duality for the h-Hopf algebroids introduced by Etingof and Varchenko. We prove that the special case of the trigonometric SL(2) dynamical quantum group is self-dual, and may therefore be viewed as a…
Let R be a 1-dimensional integral domain, let h (non-zero) be a prime element, and let \HA be the category of torsionless Hopf algebras over R. We call H in \HA a "quantized function algebra" (=QFA), resp. "quantized restricted universal…
