A basis B of a finite dimensional Hopf algebra H is said to be positive if all the structure constants of H relative to B are non-negative. A quasi-triangular structure $R\in H\otimes H$ is said to be positive with respect to B if it has…

We define some new algebraic structures, termed coloured Hopf algebras, by combining the coalgebra structures and antipodes of a standard Hopf algebra set $\cal H$, corresponding to some parameter set $\cal Q$, with the transformations of…

Quite recently, a ``coloured'' extension of the Yang-Baxter equation has appeared in the literature and various solutions of it have been proposed. In the present contribution, we introduce a generalization of Hopf algebras, to be referred…

We study a natural construction of Hopf algebra quotients canonically associated to an R-matrix in a finite dimensional Hopf algebra. We apply this construction to show that a quasitriangular Hopf algebra whose dimension is odd and…

The search for elliptic quantum groups leads to a modified quantum Yang-Baxter relation and to a special class of quasi-triangular quasi Hopf algebras. This paper calculates deformations of standard quantum groups (with or without spectral…

The aim of this paper is to study quasitriangular structures on a class of semisimple Hopf algebras constructed through abelian extensions of $Z_2$ for an abelian group $G$. We prove that there are only two forms of them. Using such…

For any quasi-triangular Hopf algebra, there exists the universal R-matrix, which satisfies the Yang-Baxter equation. It is known that the adjoint action of the universal R-matrix on the elements of the tensor square of the algebra…

In this paper we construct a new quantum double by endowing the l-state bosonalgebra with a non-trivial Hopf algebra structure,which is not a q-deformation of the Lie algebra or superalgebra.The universal R-matrix for the Yang-Baxter…

Two "quantum enveloping algebras", here denoted by $U(R)$ and $U^{\sim}(R)$, are associated in [FRTa] and [FRTb] to any Yang-Baxter operator R. The latter is only a bialgebra, in general; the former is a Hopf algebra. In this paper, we…
