The Heisenberg double of a Hopf algebra may be regarded as a quantum analogue of the cotangent bundle of a Lie group. Quantum duality principle describes relations between a Hopf algebra, its dual, and their Heisenberg double in a way which…
This short summary of recent developments in quantum compact groups and star products is divided into 2 parts. In the first one we recast star products in a more abstract form as deformations and review its recent developments. The second…
A theory of canonical basis for a two-parameter quantum algebra is developed in parallel with the one in one-parameter case. A geometric construction of the negative part of a two-parameter quantum algebra is given by using mixed perverse…
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…
The Hopf algebra generated by the l-functionals on the quantum double C_q[G] \bowtie C_q[G] is considered, where C_q[G] is the coordinate algebra of a standard quantum group and q is not a root of unity. It is shown to be isomorphic to…
We construct canonical strongly bicovariant differential graded algebra structures on all four flavours of cross product Hopf algebras, namely double cross products $A\hookrightarrow A\bowtie H\hookleftarrow H$, double cross coproducts…
The dually conjugate Hopf algebras $Fun_{p,q}(R)$ and $U_{p,q}(R)$ associated with the two-parametric $(p,q)$-Alexander-Conway solution $(R)$ of the Yang-Baxter equation are studied. Using the Hopf duality construction, the full Hopf…
The non-standard quantum deformation of the (trivially) extended sl(2,R) algebra is used to construct a new quantum deformation of the two-photon algebra h_6 and its associated quantum universal R-matrix. A deformed one-boson representation…
We introduce a family of three parameters 2-dimensional algebras representing elements in the Brauer group BQ(k,H_4) of Sweedler Hopf algebra H_4 over a field k. They allow us to describe the mutual intersection of the subgroups arising…
Given a finitely presented group $G$, Hopf's formula expresses the second integral homology of $G$ in terms of generators and relators. We give an algorithm that exploits Hopf's formula to estimate $H_2(G;k)$, with coefficients in a finite…
We construct a right-invariant differential calculus on the quantum supergroup GL$_h(1| 1)$ and obtain the $h$-deformed superalgebra of GL$_h(1| 1)$.
Intrinsic Hopf algebra structure of the Woronowicz differential complex is shown to generate quite naturally a bicovariant algebra of four basic objects within a differential calculus on quantum groups -- coordinate functions, differential…
A discrete DJS-hypergroup is constructed in connection with the linearization formula for the product of two spherical elements for a quantum Gelfand pair of two compact quantum groups. A similar construction is discussed for the case of a…
We report some observations concerning two well-known approaches to construction of quantum groups. Thus, starting from a bialgebra of inhomogeneous type and imposing quadratic, cubic or quartic commutation relations on a subset of its…
We introduce a noncommutative differential calculus on the two-parameter $h$-superplane via a contraction of the (p,q)-superplane. We manifestly show that the differential calculus is covariant under $GL_{h_1,h_2}(1| 1)$ transformations. We…
The parameter $q(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the minimum number of distinct eigenvalues of a symmetric matrix whose pattern is given by $G$. We introduce a novel graph product by which we construct new infinite families of graphs that achieve…
We establish a Schur type duality between a coideal subalgebra of the quantum group of type A and the Hecke algebra of type B with 2 parameters. We identify the $\imath$-canonical basis on the tensor product of the natural representation…
h-deformation of (graded) Hopf algebra of functions on supergroup GL(1|1) is introduced via a contration of GL_q (1|1). The deformation parameter h is odd (grassmann). Related differential calculus on h-superplane is presented.
We present a classification of the possible quantum deformations of the supergroup $GL(1|1)$ and its Lie superalgebra $gl(1|1)$. In each case, the (super)commutation relations and the Hopf structures are explicitly computed. For each $R$…
In the Hopf algebra GL_{p,q}(2) the determinant is central iff p=q. In this case we put determinant to be equal to 1 to get SL_q(2). In this paper I consider the case when p/q is a root of unity; and, consequently, a power of the…
