We introduce the notion of self-similarity for compact quantum groups. For a finite set $X$, we introduce a $C^*$-algebra $\mathbb{A}_X$, which is the quantum automorphism group of the infinite homogeneous rooted tree $X^*$. Self-similar…
We construct quantization of semisimple conjugacy classes of the exceptional group $G=G_2$ along with and by means of their exact representations in highest weight modules of the quantum group $U_q(\mathfrak{g})$. With every point $t$ of a…
Firstly, we introduce a class of new algebraic systems which generalize Hopf quasigroups and Hopf $\pi-$algebras called $Q$-graded Hopf quasigroups, and research some properties of them. Secondly, we define the representations of $Q$-graded…
This is a self-contained review on the theory of quantum group and its applications to modern physics. A brief introduction is given to the Yang-Baxter equation in integrable quantum field theory and lattice statistical physics. The quantum…
In this article, we defined a knotted subgroup of a Lie group and considered a geometric notion of equivalence among them. We characterized these knotted subgroups in terms of one-parameter subgroups and provided examples in the case of…
Invariants of 3-manifolds from a non semi-simple category of modules over a version of quantum sl(2) were obtained by the last three authors in [arXiv:1404.7289]. In their construction the quantum parameter $q$ is a root of unity of order…
Let $U_\varepsilon^{\mathrm{res}}(L\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ be the restricted integral form of the quantum loop algebra $U_q(L\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ specialised at a root of unity $\varepsilon$. We prove that the Grothendieck ring of a tensor…
A bicovariant calculus of differential operators on a quantum group is constructed in a natural way, using invariant maps from \fun\ to \uqg\ , given by elements of the pure braid group. These operators --- the `reflection matrix' $Y \equiv…
Suppose that we have a semisimple, connected, simply connected algebraic group $G$ with corresponding Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$. There is a Hopf pairing between the universal enveloping algebra $U(\mathfrak{g})$ and the coordinate ring…
Let $U$ be a quantized enveloping algebra. We consider the adjoint action of an $\mathfrak{sl}_2$-subalgebra of $U$ on a subalgebra of $U^+$ that is maximal integrable for this action. We categorify this representation in the context of…
We construct quantum evolution operators on the space of states, that is represented by the vertices of the n-dimensional unit hypercube. They realize the metaplectic representation of the modular group SL(2,Z(2^n)). By construction this…
We give a pedagogical introduction to the differential calculus on quantum groups by stressing at all stages the connection with the classical case ($q \rightarrow 1$ limit). The Lie derivative and the contraction operator on forms and…
In the present paper we construct all typical finite-dimensional representations of the quantum Lie superalgebra $U_{q}[gl(2/2)]$ at generic deformation parameter $q$. As in the non-deformed case the finite-dimensional…
Calculations in Loop Quantum Gravity (LQG) and spin-foams theory rely heavily on group theory of SU(2) and SL(2,C). Even though many monographs exist devoted to this theory, the different tools needed (e.g. representation theory, harmonic…
We describe the notion of a quantum family of maps of a quantum space and that of a quantum commutant of such a family. Quantum commutants are quantum semigroups defined by a certain universal property. We give a few examples of these…
Discrete quantum groups were introduced as duals of compact quantum groups by Podle\'s and Woronowicz in 1990. They have been studied intrinsically by Effros and Ruan (1994) and by the author (1996). In a more recent note (2025), we have…
We consider the possible covariant external algebra structures for Cartan's 1-forms on GL_q(N) and SL_q(N). We base upon the following natural postulates: 1. the invariant 1-forms realize an adjoint representation of quantum group; 2. all…
We study the behaviors of quantum groups under an edge contraction. We show that there exists an explicit embedding induced by an edge contraction operation. We further conjecture that this explicit embedding is a section of an explicit…
We provide a new branching rule from the general linear group $GL_{2n}(\mathbb{C})$ to the symplectic group $Sp_{2n}(\mathbb{C})$ by establishing a simple algorithm which gives rise to a bijection from the set of semistandard tableaux of a…
Categorified quantum groups play an increasing role in quantum topology and representation theory. The Steenrod algebra is a fundamental component of algebraic topology. In this paper we show that categorified quantum groups can be extended…
