There are only two quantum group structures on the space of two by two unimodular matrices, these are the $SL_q(2)$ and the $SL_h(2)$ [9-13] quantum groups. One can not construct a differential geometry on $ SL_q(2)$, which at the same time…
Differential calculus on the quantum quaternionic group GL(1,H$_q$) is introduced.
We present a classification of the possible quantum deformations of the supergroup $GL(1|1)$ and its Lie superalgebra $gl(1|1)$. In each case, the (super)commutation relations and the Hopf structures are explicitly computed. For each $R$…
Intrinsic Hopf algebra structure of the Woronowicz differential complex is shown to generate quite naturally a bicovariant algebra of four basic objects within a differential calculus on quantum groups -- coordinate functions, differential…
A differential calculus is set up on a deformation of the oscillator algebra. It is uniquely determined by the requirement of invariance under a seven-dimensional quantum group. The quantum space and its associated differential calculus are…
We address the problem of duality between the coloured extension of the quantised algebra of functions on a group and that of its quantised universal enveloping algebra i.e. its dual. In particular, we derive explicitly the algebra dual to…
We discuss the construction of finite noncommutative geometries on Hopf algebras and finite groups in the `quantum groups approach'. We apply the author's previous classification theorem, implying that calculi in the factorisable case…
A deformed differential calculus is developed based on an associative star-product. In two dimensions the Hamiltonian vector fields model the algebra of pseudo-differential operator, as used in the theory of integrable systems. Thus one…
We re-examine all the contractions related with the ${\cal U}_q(su(2))$ deformed algebra and study the consequences that the contraction process has for their structure. We also show using ${\cal U}_q(su(2))\times{\cal U}(u(1))$ as an…
For transcendental values of q the quantum tangent spaces of all left-covariant first order differential calculi of dimension less than four on the quantum group $\SLq 2$ are given. All such differential calculi $\Gamma $ are determined and…
A two-parametric non-standard (Jordanian) deformation of the Lie algebra $gl(2)$ is constructed, and then, exploited to obtain a new, triangular R-matrix solution of the coloured Yang-Baxter equation. The corresponding coloured quantum…
Covariant first order differential calculus over quantum complex Grassmann manifolds is considered. It is shown by a Pusz-Woronowicz type argument that under restriction to calculi close to classical Kaehler differentials there exist…
We develop a construction of the unitary type anti-involution for the quantized differential calculus over $GL_q(n)$ in the case $|q|=1$. To this end, we consider a joint associative algebra of quantized functions, differential forms and…
This paper suveys some recent algebraic developments in two parameter Quantum deformations and their Nonstandard (or Jordanian) counterparts. In particular, we discuss the contraction procedure and the quantum group homomorphisms associated…
A finite set can be supplied with a group structure which can then be used to select (classes of) differential calculi on it via the notions of left-, right- and bicovariance. A corresponding framework has been developed by Woronowicz, more…
We discuss the left-covariant 3-dimensional differential calculus on the quantum sphere $SU_q (2)/U(1) $. The $SU_q (2)$-spinor harmonics are treated as coordinates of the quantum sphere. We consider the gauge theory for the quantum group…
The differential calculus on the quantum Heisenberg group is conlinebreak structed. The duality between quantum Heisenberg group and algebra is proved.
Let X=GM be a finite group factorisation. It is shown that the quantum double D(H) of the associated bicrossproduct Hopf algebra $H=kM\cobicross k(G)$ is itself a bicrossproduct $kX\cobicross k(Y)$ associated to a group YX, where $Y=G\times…
The algebraic formulation of the quantum group gauge models in the framework of the $R$-matrix approach to the theory of quantum groups is given. We consider gauge groups taking values in the quantum groups and noncommutative gauge fields…
We construct canonical strongly bicovariant differential graded algebra structures on all four flavours of cross product Hopf algebras, namely double cross products $A\hookrightarrow A\bowtie H\hookleftarrow H$, double cross coproducts…
