A quantum group covariant extension of the chiral parts of the Wess-Zumino-Novikov-Witten model on a compact Lie group G gives rise to two matrix algebras with non-commutative entries. These are generated by "chiral zero modes" which…

The left and right zero modes of the level k SU(n) WZNW model give rise to a pair of isomorphic (left and right) mutually commuting quantum matrix algebras. For a deformation parameter q being an even (2h-th, h = k + n) root of unity each…

We study the quantum finite W-algebras W(gl_N,f), associated to the Lie algebra gl_N, and its arbitrary nilpotent element f. We construct for such an algebra an r_1 x r_1 matrix L(z) of Yangian type, where r_1 is the number of maximal parts…

In this paper we construct an "abstract Fock space" for general Lie types that serves as a generalisation of the infinite wedge $q$-Fock space familiar in type $A$. Specifically, for each positive integer $\ell$, we define a…

We prove that the deformed oscillator superalgebra $W_q(n)$ (which in the Fock representation is generated essentially by $n$ pairs of $q$-bosons) is a factor algebra of the quantized universal enveloping algebra $U_q[osp(1/2n)]$. We write…

We review the basic algebraic properties of the quantum monodromy matrix M in the canonically quantized chiral SU(n)_k Wess-Zumino-Novikov-Witten model with a quantum group symmetry.

We prove that any irreducible $*$-representation of $\mathrm{Pol}(\mathrm{Mat}_n)_q$ can be 'lifted' to an irreducible *-representation of $\mathbb{C}[SU_{2n}]_q$, this result is then used to show the existence of the universal enveloping…

Let $C$ be a symmetrizable generalized Cartan Matrix, and $q$ an indeterminate. ${\fg}(C)$ is the Kac-Moody Lie algebra and $U=U_q({\fg}(C))$ the associated quantum enveloping algebra over $ k={\Bbb Q}(q)$. The quantum function algebra…

This is a proceedings article reviewing a recent combinatorial construction of the su(n) WZNW fusion ring by C. Stroppel and the author. It contains one novel aspect: the explicit derivation of an algorithm for the computation of fusion…

For a finite-dimensional simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, let $U^+_q(\mathfrak{g})$ be the positive part of the quantized universal enveloping algebra, and $A_q(\mathfrak{g})$ be the quantized algebra of functions. We show that the…

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a complex simple Lie algebra and $U_q(\hat{\mathfrak{g}})$ the corresponding quantum affine algebra. We prove that every irreducible finite-dimensional $U_q(\hat{\mathfrak{g}})$-module gives rise to a family of…

The zero modes of the monodromy extended SU(2) WZNW model give rise to a gauge theory with a finite dimensional state space. A generalized BRS operator $A$ such that $A^h=0 (h=k+2=3,4,...$ being the height of the current algebra…

We consider integrable vertex models whose Boltzmann weights (R-matrices) are trigonometric solutions to the graded Yang-Baxter equation. As is well known the latter can be generically constructed from quantum affine superalgebras…

We show that the action of universal $R$-matrix of affine $U_qsl_2$ quantum algebra, when $q$ is a root of unity, can be renormalized by some scalar factor to give a well defined nonsingular expression, satisfying Yang-Baxter equation. It…

We study a U(N) gauged matrix quantum mechanics which, in the large N limit, is closely related to the chiral WZW conformal field theory. This manifests itself in two ways. First, we construct the left-moving Kac-Moody algebra from matrix…
