A class of transformations of $R_q$-matrices is introduced such that the $q\to 1$ limit gives explicit nonstandard $R_{h}$-matrices. The transformation matrix is singular itself at $q\to 1$ limit. For the transformed matrix, the…

We consider the $R$-matrix presentations of the quantum queer superalgebra $U_q(q_n)$ and its affine counterpart $U_q(\widehat q_n)$. We derive crossing symmetry relations for the $R$-matrices and use them to construct central elements in…

A quantum algebra $U_{p,q}(\zeta ,H,X_\pm )$ associated with a nonstandard $R$-matrix with two deformation parameters$(p,q)$ is studied and, in particular, its universal ${\cal R}$-matrix is derived using Reshetikhin's method. Explicit…

We give a formula for the universal R-matrix of the quantized universal enveloping algebra $U_q(\g).$ This is similar to a previous formula due to Kirillov-Reshetikhin and Levendorskii-Soibelman, except that where they use the action of the…

For each simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, we construct an algebra embedding of the quantum group $U_q(\mathfrak{g})$ into certain quantum torus algebra $D_\mathfrak{g}$ via the positive representations of split real quantum group. The…

We present the RLL-realization of extended orthosymplectic quantum supergroups for any parity sequence, with R-matrices evaluated in the earlier work arxiv:2408.16720. Our isomorphism is compatible with the internal structure of generalized…

This paper is an extended version of our previous short letter \cite{ZG2} and is attempted to give a detailed account for the results presented in that paper. Let $U_q({\cal G}^{(1)})$ be the quantized nontwisted affine Lie algebra and…

We provide an explicit quantization of dynamical r-matrices for semisimple Lie algebras, classified earlier by the third author, which includes the Belavin-Drinfeld r-matrices. We do so by constructing an appropriate (dynamical) twist in…

In a previous paper the generator matrix elements and (dual) vector reduced Wigner coefficients (RWCs) were evaluated via the polynomial identities satisfied by a certain matrix constructed from the $R$-matrix $R$ and its twisted…

We introduce the notion of a cylindrical bialgebra, which is a quasitriangular bialgebra $H$ endowed with a universal K-matrix, i.e., a universal solution of a generalized reflection equation, yielding an action of cylindrical braid groups…

The Drinfeld double of a finite dimensional Hopf algebra is a quasi-triangular Hopf algebra with the canonical element as the universal $R$-matrix, and one can obtain a ribbon Hopf algebra by adding the ribbon element. The universal quantum…

The category of finite dimensional module over the quantum superalgebra U_q(sl(2|1)) is not semi-simple and the quantum dimension of a generic U_q(sl(2|1))-module vanishes. This vanishing happens for any value of q (even when q is not a…

Associated with the fundamental representation of a quantum algebra such as $U_q(A_1)$ or $U_q(A_2)$, there exist infinitely many gauge-equivalent $R$-matrices with different spectral-parameter dependences. It is shown how these can be…
