Twisted Hopf algebra $sl_\xi(2)$ gives rise to a deformation of the Yangian ${\cal Y}(sl(2))$. The corresponding deformations of the integrable XXX-spin chain and the Gaudin model are discussed.
We give a systematic account of symmetric D-branes in the Lie group SU(3). We determine both the classical and quantum moduli space of (twisted) conjugacy classes in terms of the (twisted) Stiefel diagram of the Lie group. We show that the…
Serious difficulties arise in the construction of chains of twists for symplectic Lie algebras. Applying the canonical chains of extended twists to deform the Hopf algebras U(sp(N)) one is forced to deal only with improper chains (induced…
We initiate the study of a q-deformed geometry for quantum SU(2). In contrast with the usual properties of a spectral triple, we get that only twisted commutators between algebra elements and our Dirac operator are bounded. Furthermore, the…
The factorization of the universal R-matrix corresponding to so called Drinfeld Hopf structure is described on the example of quantum affine algebra $U_q(\hat{sl}_2)$. As a result of factorization procedure we deduce certain differential…
Derivations of twisted loop algebras of minimal Q-graded subalgebras of semisimple Lie algebras are investigated, and a decomposition formula of the derivation algebra is obtained. Homogenous almost inner derivations of twisted loop…
We define a new kind of algebroid which fulfills a Leibniz rule, a Jacobi identity twisted by a 3-form $H$ with values in the kernel of the anchor map, and the twist is closed under a naturally occurring exterior covariant derivative. We…
We study irreducible spherical unitary representations of the Drinfeld double of a $q$-deformation of a connected simply connected compact Lie group, which can be considered as a quantum analogue of the complexification of the Lie group. In…
The various relations between $q$-deformed oscillators algebras and the $q$-deformed $su(2)$ algebras are discussed. In particular, we exhibit the similarity of the $q$-deformed $su(2)$ algebra obtained from $q$-oscillators via Schwinger…
The purpose of this paper is to discuss the categorical structure for a method of defining quantum invariants of knots, links and three-manifolds. These invariants can be defined in terms of right integrals on certain Hopf algebras. We call…
Two non-standard quantum deformations of the (1+1) Schr\"odinger algebra are identified with the symmetry algebras of either a space or time uniform lattice discretization of the Schr\"odinger equation. For both cases, the deformation…
We define an algebra $\mathcal{U}_0$ using a simplified set of generators for the quantum toroidal algebra $U_q(sl_{n+1}, tor)$ and show that there exists an epimorphism from $\mathcal{U}_0$ to $U_q(sl_{n+1}, tor)$. We derive a closed…
In this paper, we extend the Reshetikhin-Semenov-Tian-Shansky formulation of quantum affine algebras to the two-parameter quantum affine superalgebra $U_{p, q}(\widehat{\mathfrak{gl}}(m|n))$ and obtain its Drinfeld realization. We also…
We construct a braided structure on the algebra of K\"ahler differential forms of a commutative algebra twisted by an endomorphism. This generalises the construction done in M. Karoubi, Quantum Methods in Algebraic Topology, see…
We study the restriction of representations of Cayley-Hamilton algebras to subalgebras. This theory is applied to determine tensor products and branching rules for representations of quantum groups at roots of 1.
In this paper, we present an approach to the definition of multiparameter quantum groups by studying Hopf algebras with triangular decomposition. Classifying all of these Hopf algebras which are of what we call weakly separable type over a…
Given a Hopf algebra H, we study modules and bimodules over an algebra A that carry an H-action, as well as their morphisms and connections. Bimodules naturally arise when considering noncommutative analogues of tensor bundles. For…
A construction is given of a family of non-standard quantizations of the algebra of functions on a connected complex semi-simple algebraic group. For each ``disjoint'' triple in the sense of Belavin and Drinfeld, a 2-cocycle is constructed…
We consider the universal solution of the Gervais-Neveu-Felder equation in the ${\cal U}_q(sl_2)$ case. We show that it has a quasi-Hopf algebra interpretation. We also recall its relation to quantum 3-j and 6-j symbols. Finally, we use…
In this paper we study the properties of Drinfeld's twisting for finite-dimensional Hopf algebras. We determine how the integral of the dual to a unimodular Hopf algebra $H$ changes under twisting of $H$. We show that the classes of…
