In this paper, we construct the Lusztig symmetries for quantum Borcherds-Bozec algebra $U_q(\mathscr g)$ and its weight module $M\in \mathcal O$, on which the generators with real indices of $U_q(\mathscr g)$ act nilpotently. We show that…

As a contribution of the programme of Goswami and Mandal (2014), we carry out explicit computations of $\mathbb{Q}(\Gamma,S)$, the quantum isometry group of the canonical spectral triple on $C_{r}^{*}(\Gamma)$ coming from the word length…

In this paper, we carry out the ``quantum double construction'' of the specific quantum groups we constructed earlier, namely, the ``quantum Heisenberg group algebra'' (A,\Delta) and its dual, the ``quantum Heisenberg group''…

Let $(H,R)$ be a quasitriangular weak Hopf algebra over a field $k$. We show that there is a braided monoidal equivalence between the Yetter-Drinfeld module category $^H_H\mathscr{YD}$ over $H$ and the category of comodules over some…

We compute the group of braided tensor autoequivalences and the Brauer-Picard group of the representation category of the small quantum group $\mathfrak{u}_q(\mathfrak{g})$, where $q$ is a root of unity.

We prove that if U_h(g) is a quasitriangular QUE algebra with universal R-matrix R, and O_h(G^*) is the quantized function algebra sitting inside U_h(g), then h log(R) belongs to the tensor square O_h(G^*) otimes O_h(G^*). This gives…

We introduce a representation theory of q-Lie algebras defined earlier in \cite{DG1}, \cite{DG2}, formulated in terms of braided modules. We also discuss other ways to define Lie algebra-like objects related to quantum groups, in…

The Drinfeld double of a finite dimensional Hopf algebra is a quasi-triangular Hopf algebra with the canonical element as the universal $R$-matrix, and one can obtain a ribbon Hopf algebra by adding the ribbon element. The universal quantum…

This paper aims to determine the images of the braid group under representations afforded by the Yang Baxter equation when the solution is a nontrivial $4 \times 4$ matrix. Making the assumption that all the eigenvalues of the Yang Baxter…

We introduce an algebraic theory of integration on quantum planes and other braided spaces. In the one dimensional case we obtain a novel picture of the Jackson $q$-integral as indefinite integration on the braided group of functions in one…

In this paper we apply Rieffel deformation to C*- tensor product viewed as a functor on the category of C*-algebras with an abelian group action. In the case of the Rieffel deformation of a quantum group with the action by automorphisms the…

These are the extended notes of a mini-course given at the school WinterBraids X. We discuss algebras simultaneously related to: the braid group, the Yang-Baxter equation and the representation theory of quantum groups. The main goal is to…

We present in this paper the algebra of fused permutations and its deformation the fused Hecke algebra. The first one is defined on a set of combinatorial objects that we call fused permutations, and its deformation is defined on a set of…

A coloured braid group representation (CBGR) is constructed with the help of some modified universal ${\cal R}$-matrix, associated to $U_q(gl(2))$ quantised algebra. Explicit realisation of Faddeev-Reshetikhin-Takhtajan (FRT) algebra is…

The aim of the paper is to provide an method to obtain representations of the braid group through a set of quasitriangular Hopf algebras. In particular, these algebras may be derived from group algebras of cyclic groups with additional…

Let g be a symmetrizable Kac-Moody algebra and U_h(g) its quantized enveloping algebra. The quantum Weyl group operators of U_h(g) and the universal R-matrices of its Levi subalgebras endow U_h(g) with a natural quasi-Coxeter…

Quantum doubles of finite group algebras form a class of quasi-triangular Hopf algebras which algebraically solve the Yang--Baxter equation. Each representation of the quantum double then gives a matrix solution of the Yang--Baxter…

$*$-structures on quantum and braided spaces of the type defined via an R-matrix are studied. These include $q$-Minkowski and $q$-Euclidean spaces as additive braided groups. The duality between the $*$-braided groups of vectors and…

A unitary operator that satisfies the constant Yang-Baxter equation immediately yields a unitary representation of the braid group B n for every $n \ge 2$. If we view such an operator as a quantum-computational gate, then topological…
