On any Reflection Equation algebra corresponding to a skew-invertible Hecke symmetry (i.e. a special type solution of the Quantum Yang-Baxter Equation) we define analogs of the partial derivatives. Together with elements of the initial…

The equitable presentation of the quantum algebra $U_q(\widehat{sl_2})$ is considered. This presentation was originally introduced by T. Ito and P. Terwilliger. In this paper, following Terwilliger's recent works the (nonstandard) positive…

We construct a vertex representation for the quantum toroidal algebra through the quantum general linear algebra. Using a new realization of the quantum general linear algebra we construct vertex operators for root vectors on the basic…

For a complex finite-dimensional simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, we introduce the notion of Q-datum, which generalizes the notion of a Dynkin quiver with a height function from the viewpoint of Weyl group combinatorics. Using this…

Coloured Hopf algebras, related to the coloured Yang-Baxter equation, are reviewed, as well as their duals. The special case of coloured quantum universal enveloping algebras provides a coloured extension of Drinfeld and Jimbo formalism.…

We study the quantum invariants of projective varieties over the number fields. Namely, explicit formulas for a functor $\mathscr{Q}$ on such varieties are proved. The case of abelian varieties with complex multiplication is treated in…

We construct by fusion product new irreducible representations of the quantum affinization $U_q(\hat{sl}_\infty)$. The action is defined via the Drinfeld coproduct and is related to the crystal structure of semi-standard tableaux of type…

The universal enveloping algebra U(g) of a Lie algebra g acts on its representation ring R through D(R), the ring of differential operators on R. A quantised universal enveloping algebra (or "quantum group") is a deformation of a universal…

We further define two-parameter quantum affine algebra $U_{r,s}(\widehat{\frak {sl}_n})$ $(n>2)$ after the work on the finite cases (see [BW1], [BGH1], [HS] & [BH]), which turns out to be a Drinfel'd double. Of importance for the quantum…

We compare the reduced Drinfeld doubles of the composition subalgebras of the category of representations of the Kronecker quiver $\overr{Q}$ and of the category of coherent sheaves on ${\mathbb P}^1$. Using this approach, we show that the…

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a simple Lie algebra over the complex numbers, and let $\mathfrak{g}[u]$ denote its polynomial current algebra. In the mid-1980s, Drinfeld introduced the Yangian of $\mathfrak{g}$ as the unique solution to a…

Quantum toroidal algebras (or double affine quantum algebras) are defined from quantum affine Kac-Moody algebras by using the Drinfeld quantum affinization process. They are quantum groups analogs of elliptic Cherednik algebras (elliptic…

We classify all groups G and all pairs (V,W) of absolutely simple Yetter-Drinfeld modules over G such that the support of the direct sum of V and W generates G, the square of the braiding between V and W is not the identity, and the Nichols…

Braided differential operators $\del^i$ are obtained by differentiating the addition law on the braided covector spaces introduced previously (such as the braided addition law on the quantum plane). These are affiliated to a Yang-Baxter…

The universal $R$-matrix for a class of esoteric (non-standard) quantum groups ${\cal U}_q(gl(2N+1))$ is constructed as a twisting of the universal $R$-matrix ${\cal R}_S$ of the Drinfeld-Jimbo quantum algebras. The main part of the…

We consider how a vertex operator algebra can be extended to an abelian intertwining algebra by a family of weak twisted modules which are {\em simple currents} associated with semisimple weight one primary vectors. In the case that the…

We extend the homological method of quantization of generalized Drinfeld--Sokolov reductions to affine superalgebras. This leads, in particular, to a unified representation theory of superconformal algebras.

We study the Nichols algebra of a semisimple Yetter-Drinfeld module and introduce new invariants such as real roots. The crucial ingredient is a `reflection' in the class of such Nichols algebras. We conclude the classifications of…

We describe a generalization of Drinfeld's description of the center of a quantum group to the case of quantum affine algebras. We use the obtained central elements to construct the affine analogue of Macdonald's difference operators.

We obtain the basic $R$-matrix of the two-parameter Quantum group $U=U_{r,s}\mathcal(\mathfrak{so}_{2n})$ via its weight representation theory and determine its $R$-matrix with spectral parameters for the two-parameter quantum affine…
