In this paper we suggest that in the framework of the Category Theory it is possible to demonstrate the mathematical and logical \textit{dual equivalence} between the category of the $q$-deformed Hopf Coalgebras and the category of the…
We describe the Hopf algebraic structure of Feynman graphs for non-abelian gauge theories, and prove compatibility of the so-called Slavnov-Taylor identities with the coproduct. When these identities are taken into account, the coproduct…
Classical random walks and Markov processes are easily described by Hopf algebras. It is also known that groups and Hopf algebras (quantum groups) lead to classical and quantum diffusions. We study here the more primitive notion of a…
We show that the process of renormalization encapsules a Hopf algebra structure in a natural manner. This sheds light on the recently proposed connection between knots and renormalization theory.
The extension of FRT quantization theory for the nonsemisimple CK groups is suggested. The quantum orthogonal CK groups are realized as the Hopf algebras of the noncommutative functions over an associative algebras with nilpotent…
A commutative but not cocommutative graded Hopf algebra $\Hn$, based on ordered rooted trees, is studied. This Hopf algebra generalizes the Hopf algebraic structure of unordered rooted trees $\Hc$, developed by Butcher in his study of…
We propose several constructions of commutative or cocommutative Hopf algebras based on various combinatorial structures, and investigate the relations between them. A commutative Hopf algebra of permutations is obtained by a general…
Quantum Field Theory (QFT) represents a vast generalization of Quantum Mechanics (QM), as it deals with systems that have an infinite number of degrees of freedom. The Stone-von Neumann theorem, which establishes the equivalence of…
We introduce a new Hopf algebra that operates on pairs of finite interval partitions and permutations of equal length. This algebra captures vincular patterns, which involve specifying both the permutation patterns and the consecutive…
Cyclic cohomology has been recently adapted to the treatment of Hopf symmetry in noncommutative geometry. The resulting theory of characteristic classes for Hopf algebras and their actions on algebras allows to expand the range of…

In this paper, we first introduce a quantum $n$-space with a cocommutative Hopf algebra structure. Then it is shown that to this quantum $n$-space there corresponds a derivation algebra of $\sigma$-twisted derivations related to some…
In this work, we develop systematically the ``Dirichlet Hopf algebra of arithmetics'' by dualizing addition and multiplication maps. We study the additive and multiplicative antipodal convolutions which fail to give rise to Hopf algebra…
The controlled-NOT gate of qubit quantum circuits is shown to be described in terms of a Hopf algebra. Accordingly, any qubit quantum circuit can be expressed as the Hopf algebraic computations and unitary transformations on one qubit.
The paper puts together some loosely connected observations, old and new, on the concept of a quantum field and on the properties of Feynman amplitudes. We recall, in particular, the role of (exceptional) elementary induced representations…
Recently, the theory of renormalization in perturbative quantum field theory underwent some exciting new developments. Kreimer discovered an organization of Feynman graphs into combinatorial Hopf algebras. The process of renormalization is…
This work has a methodological nature and is a set of lecture notes for undergraduate students. It is devoted to the study of the basic tools of quantum field theory on the example of the simplest cubic "toy" model. We introduce such…
This is a presentation of recent work on quantum permutation groups. Contains: a short introduction to operator algebras and Hopf algebras; quantum permutation groups, and their basic properties; diagrams, integration formulae, asymptotic…
Combinatorial Hopf algebras give a linear algebraic structure to infinite families of combinatorial objects, a technique further enriched by the categorification of these structure via the representation theory of families of algebras. This…
This tutorial is intended to give an accessible introduction to Hopf algebras. The mathematical context is that of representation theory, and we also illustrate the structures with examples taken from combinatorics and quantum physics,…
