Using a theorem of Schechtman - Varchenko on integral expressions for solutions of Knizhnik - Zamolodchikov equations we prove that the solutions of the Yang - Baxter equation associated to complex simple Lie algebras belong to the class of…

The discussions in the present paper arise from exploring intrinsically the structure nature of the quantum $n$-space. A kind of braided category $\Cal {GB}$ of $\La$-graded $\th$-commutative associative algebras over a field $k$ is…

Let $U_q(\hat{\cal G})$ be a quantized affine Lie algebra. It is proven that the universal R-matrix $R$ of $U_q(\hat{\cal G})$ satisfies the celebrated conjugation relation $R^\dagger=TR$ with $T$ the usual twist map. As applications, braid…

Let V be the 7-dimensional irreducible representation of the quantum group U_q(g_2). For each n, there is a map from the braid group B_n to the endomorphism algebra of the n-th tensor power of V, given by R-matrices. We can extend this…

Braided doubles provide a unifying framework for classical and quantum universal enveloping algebras and rational Cherednik algebras. They are a class of algebras with triangular decomposition, arising from a deformation problem, the…

Unitary braiding operators can be used as robust entangling quantum gates. We introduce a solution-generating technique to solve the $(d,m,l)$-generalized Yang-Baxter equation, for $m/2\leq l \leq m$, which allows to systematically…

We construct a braided analogue of the quantum permutation group and show that it is the universal braided compact quantum group acting on a finite space in the category of $\mathbb{Z}/N\mathbb{Z}$-$\textrm{C}^*$-algebras with a twisted…

We define a family of the braid group representations via the action of the $R$-matrix (of the quasitriangular extension) of the restricted quantum $\mathfrak{sl}(2)$ on a tensor power of a simple projective module. This family is an…

We construct a certain cross product of two copies of the braided dual $\tilde H$ of a quasitriangular Hopf algebra $H$, which we call the elliptic double $E_H$, and which we use to construct representations of the punctured elliptic braid…

We extend the main result of [N. Andruskiewitsch and H.-J. Schneider, A characterization of quantum groups], see math/0201095, to braided vector spaces of generic diagonal type using results of Heckenberger.

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…

The connection between braided Hopf algebra structure and the quantum group covariance of deformed oscillators is constructed explicitly. In this context we provide deformations of the Hopf algebra of functions on SU(1,1). Quantum subgroups…

Set-theoretic solutions of the Yang--Baxter equation form a meeting-ground of mathematical physics, algebra and combinatorics. Such a solution $(X,r)$ consists of a set $X$ and a bijective map $r:X\times X\to X\times X$ which satisfies the…

We introduce the notion of a braided dynamical group which is a matched pair of dynamical groups satisfying extra conditions. It is shown to give a solution of the dynamical Yang-Baxter equation and at the same time a braided groupoid,…

We study the Yetter--Drinfeld D(B)-module algebra structure on the Heisenberg double H(B^*) endowed with a "heterotic" action of the Drinfeld double D(B). This action can be interpreted in the spirit of Lu's description of H(B^*) as a twist…

We give a selfcontained introduction to the theory of quantum groups according to Drinfeld highlighting the formal aspects as well as the applications to the Yang-Baxter equation and representation theory. Introductions to Hopf algebras,…

The paper deals with braided Clifford algebras, understood as Chevalley-Kahler deformations of braided exterior algebras. It is shown that Clifford algebras based on involutive braids can be naturally endowed with a braided quantum group…

In this paper, we present explicit actions of braid group on the universal enveloping superalgebra ${\boldsymbol U}(\mathfrak{{q}}_n)$ and the quantum queer superalgebra ${\boldsymbol U}_{\!{v}}(\mathfrak{{q}}_{n})$. Then we provide a new…

Let $\hat{\frak g}$ be an untwisted affine Kac-Moody algebra. The quantum group $U_h(\hat{\frak g})$ (over $\mathbb{C}[[h]]$) is known to be a quasitriangular Hopf algebra: in particular, it has a universal $ R $--matrix, which yields an $…

We introduce the notion of a braided Lie algebra consisting of a finite-dimensional vector space $\CL$ equipped with a bracket $[\ ,\ ]:\CL\tens\CL\to \CL$ and a Yang-Baxter operator $\Psi:\CL\tens\CL\to \CL\tens\CL$ obeying some axioms. We…
