We define the Drinfeld generators for $Y_3^+$, the twisted Yangian associated to the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{so}_3(\mathbb{C})$. This allows us to define shifted twisted Yangians, which are certain subalgebras of $Y_3^+$. We show that there…

We study quantized enveloping algebras called twisted Yangians associated with the symmetric pairs of types CI, BDI and DIII (in Cartan's classification) when the rank is small. We establish isomorphisms between these twisted Yangians and…

We study the super analogue of the Molev-Ragoucy reflection algebras, which we call twisted super Yangians of type AIII, and classify their finite-dimensional irreducible representations under certain conditions. These superalgebras are…

We continue the study of finite-dimensional irreducible representations of twisted Yangians associated to symmetric pairs of types B, C and D, with focus on those of types BI, CII and DI. After establishing that, for all twisted Yangians of…

We construct an algebra homomorphism between the Yangian Y(sl(n)) and the finite W-algebras W(sl(np),n.sl(p)) for any p. We show how this result can be applied to determine properties of the finite dimensional representations of such…

Starting with the superYangian Y(M|N) based on gl(M|N), we define twisted superYangians Y^+(M|N) and Y^-(M|N). Only Y^+(M|2n) and Y^-(2m|N) can be defined, and appear to be isomorphic one with each other. We study their finite-dimensional…

We prove how the Yangian of $\mathfrak{gl}_N$ in its RTT presentation and Olshanski's twisted Yangians for the orthogonal and symplectic Lie algebras can be obtained by a degeneration process from the corresponding quantum loop algebra and…

In this article, we study the representation theory of shifted super Yangians and finite $W$-superalgebras of type A. A criterion for the finite dimensionality of irreducible modules is obtained in the standard parity case. Furthermore, we…

In this paper we introduce the shifted twisted Yangian of type {\sf AI}, following the work of Lu--Wang--Zhang, and we study their semiclassical limits, a class of Poisson algebras. We demonstrate that they coincide with the Dirac…

We give the principal realization of the twisted Yangians of orthogonal and symplectic types. The new bases are interpreted in terms of discrete Fourier transform over the cyclic group Z_N.

We study the structure of quantized enveloping algebras called twisted Yangians, which are naturally associated with the B, C, and D series of the classical Lie algebras. We obtain an explicit formula for the formal series (the Sklyanin…

We propose a generic framework to obtain certain types of contracted and centrally extended algebras. This is based on the existence of quadratic algebras (reflection algebras and twisted Yangians), naturally arising in the context of…

We study the truncated shifted Yangian $Y_{n,l}(\sigma)$ over an algebraically closed field $\mathbb{k}$ of characteristic $p > 0$, which is known to be isomorphic to the finite $W$-algebra $U(\mathfrak{g}, e)$ associated to a corresponding…

We study in detail the structure of the Yangian Y(gl(N)) and of some new Yangian-type algebras called twisted Yangians. The algebra Y(gl(N)) is a `quantum' deformation of the universal enveloping algebra U(gl(N)[x]), where gl(N)[x] is the…
