The theory of quantum symmetric pairs as developed by the second author is based on coideal subalgebras of the quantized universal enveloping algebra for a semisimple Lie algebra. This paper investigates the center of these coideal…
We introduce a class of automorphisms of compact quantum groups which may be thought of as inner automorphisms and explore the behaviour of normal subgroups of compact quantum groups under these automorphisms. We also define the notion of…
The small elliptic quantum group $e_{\tau,\gamma}(sl_N)$, introduced in the paper, is an elliptic dynamical analogue of the universal enveloping algebra $U(sl_n)$. We define highest weight modules, Verma modules and contragradient modules…
We present particularly simple new solutions to the Yang--Baxter equation arising from two--dimensional cyclic representations of quantum $SU(2)$. They are readily interpreted as scattering matrices of relativistic objects, and the quantum…
We define an elliptic version of the stable envelope of Maulik and Okounkov for the equivariant elliptic cohomology of cotangent bundles of Grassmannians. It is a version of the construction proposed by Aganagic and Okounkov and is based on…
In [4] we introduce the associative algebras $Q_{n,k}(\CE,\tau)$. Recall the definition. These algebras are labeled by discrete parameters $n,k$; $n,k$ are integers $n>k>0$ and $n$ and $k$ have not common divisors. Then, $\CE$ is an…
We give a new type of Schur-Weyl duality for the representations of a family of quantum subgroups and their centralizer algebra. We define and classify singly-generated, Yang-Baxter relation planar algebras. We present the skein theoretic…
We construct a finite dimensional representation of the face type, i.e dynamical, elliptic quantum group associated with $sl_N$ on the Gelfand-Tsetlin basis of the tensor product of the $n$-vector representations. The result is described in…
We develop a new approach to Baxter Q-operators by relating them to the theory of Yangians, which are the simplest examples for quantum groups. Here we open up a new chapter in this theory and study certain degenerate solutions of the…
We construct $q$-deformations of quantum $\mathcal{W}_N$ algebras with elliptic structure functions. Their spin $k+1$ generators are built from $2k$ products of the Lax matrix generators of ${\mathcal{A}_{q,p}(\widehat{gl}(N)_c)}$). The…
We study the tensor product of the {\it higher spin representations} (see the definition in Sect. 2.2) of the elliptic quantum group $E_{\tau,\eta}(sl_n)$. The transfer matrices associated with the $E_{\tau,\eta}(sl_n)$-module are exactly…
For every finite abelian group $A$ and $n\geq 3$, we construct a finitely presented group defined by explicit generators and relations, such that its center is $\pi_n(\Sigma K(A,1))$.
After reviewing the recent results on the Drinfeld realization of the face type elliptic quantum group B_{q,lambda}(sl_N^) by the elliptic algebra U_{q,p}(sl_N^), we investigate a fusion of the vertex operators of U_{q,p}(sl_N^). The basic…
We expose the elliptic quantum groups in the Drinfeld realization associated with both the affine Lie algebra \g and the toroidal algebra \g_tor. There the level-0 and level \not=0 representations appear in a unified way so that one can…
We present an uniform construction of the solution to the Yang- Baxter equation with the symmetry algebra $s\ell(2)$ and its deformations: the q-deformation and the elliptic deformation or Sklyanin algebra. The R-operator acting in the…
We examine links between the theory of braces and set theoretical solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation, and fundamental concepts from the theory of quantum integrable systems. More precisely, we make connections with Hecke algebras and we…
The (G, \theta)-Lie algebras are structures which unify the Lie algebras and Lie superalgebras. We use them to produce solutions for the quantum Yang-Baxter equation. The constant and the spectral-parameter Yang-Baxter equations and…
For the family of the orthogonal quantum matrix algebras we investigate the structure of their characteristic subalgebras -- special commutative subalgebras, which for the subfamily of the reflection equation algebras appear to be central.…
We define the notion of a (linearly reductive) center for a linearly reductive quantum group, and show that the quotient of a such a quantum group by its center is simple whenever its fusion semiring is free in the sense of Banica and…
Several years ago, it was proposed that the usual solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation associated to Lie groups can be deduced in a systematic way from four-dimensional gauge theory. In the present paper, we extend this picture, fill in…
