The idea of using a sequence of finite dimensional algebras to approach a quantum linear group (i.e., a quantum $\mathfrak{gl}_n$) was first introduced by Beilinson-Lusztig-MacPherson [BLM]. In their work, the algebras are convolution…

We establish a q-version of the Schur-Weyl duality, in which the role of the symmetric group is played by the Hecke algebra and the role of the enveloping algebra U(gl(N)) is played by the Reflection Equation algebra, associated with any…

Using the second Drinfeld formulation of the quantized universal enveloping algebra $U_q(\widehat{sl_2})$ we introduce a family of its Heisenberg-type elements which are endowed with a deformed commutator and satisfy properties similar to…

Representations of small quantum groups $u_q({\mathfrak{g}})$ at a root of unity and their extensions provide interesting tensor categories, that appear in different areas of algebra and mathematical physics. There is an ansatz by Lusztig…

As a natural generalization of ordinary Lie algebras we introduce the concept of quantum Lie algebras ${\cal L}_q(g)$. We define these in terms of certain adjoint submodules of quantized enveloping algebras $U_q(g)$ endowed with a quantum…

We describe the generators and prove a number of relations for the construction of a planar algebra from the restricted quantum group $\bar{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}_{2})$. This is a diagrammatic description of…

Let G be a Lie group, $g = Lie(G)$ - its Lie algebra, $g*$ - the dual vector space and $\widehat G$ - the set of equivalence classes of unitary irreducible representations of $G$. The orbit method [1] establishes a correspondence between…

We consider the monoidal subcategory of finite dimensional representations of $U_q(\mathfrak{gl}(1|1))$ generated by the vector representation, and we provide a diagram calculus for the intertwining operators, which allows to compute…

Recently B. Hartwig and the second author found a presentation for the three-point $sl_2$ loop algebra via generators and relations. To obtain this presentation they defined an algebra $\boxtimes$ by generators and relations, and displayed…

We develop explicit formulae for the eigenvalues of various invariants for highest weight irreducible representations of the quantum supergroup $U_q[gl(m|n)]$. The techniques employed make use of modified characteristic identity methods and…

Attention is focused on q-deformed quantum algebras with physical importance, i.e. $U_{q}(su_{2})$, $U_{q}(so_{4})$ and q-deformed Lorentz algebra. The main concern of this article is to assemble important ideas about these symmetry…

For the nonstandard $q$-deformed algebras $U_q(so_n)$, defined recently in terms of trilinear relations for generating elements, most general finite dimensional irreducible representations directly corresponding to those of nondeformed…

We discuss highest $\ell$-weight representations of quantum loop algebras and the corresponding functional relations between integrability objects. In particular, we compare the prefundamental and $q$-oscillator representations of the…

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…

We develop a theory of two-parameter quantum polynomial functors. Similar to how (strict) polynomial functors give a new interpretation of polynomial representations of the general linear groups $\operatorname{GL}_n$, the two-parameter…

We construct an analog of the subalgebra $Ugl(n)\otimes Ugl(m)$ of $Ugl(m+n)$ in the setting of quantum toroidal algebras and study the restrictions of various representations to this subalgebra.

A reducible representation of the Temperley-Lieb algebra is constructed on the tensor product of n-dimensional spaces. One obtains as a centraliser of this action a quantum algebra (a quasi-triangular Hopf algebra) U_q with a representation…

We consider $\rm R$-matrix realization of the quantum deformations of the loop algebras $\tilde{\mathfrak{g}}$ corresponding to non-exceptional affine Lie algebras of type $\hat{\mathfrak{g}}=A^{(1)}_{N-1}$, $B^{(1)}_n$, $C^{(1)}_n$,…

We describe the underlying U_q(g)--module structure of representations of quantum affine algebras.

In this note we compute the leading term with respect to the De Concini-Kac filtration of $U_q(\mathfrak{gl}_n)$ of a generating set for the quantum Gelfand-Tsetlin subalgebra.
