This is a self-contained review on the theory of quantum group and its applications to modern physics. A brief introduction is given to the Yang-Baxter equation in integrable quantum field theory and lattice statistical physics. The quantum…
The ``local'' structure of a quantum group G_q is currently considered to be an infinite-dimensional object: the corresponding quantum universal enveloping algebra U_q(g), which is a Hopf algebra deformation of the universal enveloping…
Fractional calculus and q-deformed Lie algebras are closely related. Both concepts expand the scope of standard Lie algebras to describe generalized symmetries. A new class of fractional q-deformed Lie algebras is proposed, which for the…
A field theory with local transformations belonging to the quantum group SU_q(n) is defined on a classical spacetime, with gauge potentials belonging to a quantum Lie algebra. Gauge transformations are defined for the potentials which lead…
We investigate the algebras satisfied by q-deformed boson and fermion oscillators, in particular the transformations of the algebra from one form to another. Based on a specific algebra proposed in recent literature, we show that the…
The dynamical algebra of the q-deformed harmonic oscillator is constructed. As a result, we find the free deformed Hamiltonian as well as the Hamiltonian of the deformed oscillator as a complicated, momentum dependent interaction…
Phase-space realisations of an infinite parameter family of quantum deformations of the boson algebra in which the $q$-- and the $qp$--deformed algebras arise as special cases are studied. Quantum and classical models for the corresponding…
Quantum real numbers are proposed by performing a quantum deformation of the standard real numbers $\R$. We start with the q-deformed Heisenberg algebra $\cLLq$ which is obtained by the Moyal $\ast$-deformation of the Heisenberg algebra…
It is shown that q-deformed quantum mechanics (q-deformed Heisenberg algebra) can be interpreted as quantum mechanics on Kaehler manifolds, or as a quantum theory with second (or first-) class constraints. (Saclay, T93/027).
We present a novel approach to the Bose polaron based on the notion of quantum groups, also known as $q$-deformed Lie algebras. In this approach, a mobile impurity can be depicted as a deformation of the Lie algebra of the bosonic creation…
In the present paper we review the $q$-analogue of the Quantum Theory of Angular Momentum based on the $q$-algebra $su_q(2)$, with a special emphasis on the representation of the Clebsch-Gordan coefficients in terms of $q$-hypergeometric…
The Verma modules over the quantum groups $\mathrm U_q(\mathfrak{gl}_{l + 1})$ for arbitrary values of $l$ are analysed. The explicit expressions for the action of the generators on the elements of the natural basis are obtained. The…
The "quantum duality principle" states that a quantisation of a Lie bialgebra provides also a quantisation of the dual formal Poisson group and, conversely, a quantisation of a formal Poisson group yields a quantisation of the dual Lie…
The notion of quantum algebras is merged with that of Lie systems in order to establish a new formalism called Poisson-Hopf algebra deformations of Lie systems. The procedure can be naturally applied to Lie systems endowed with a symplectic…
It is shown that introducing the quantum effects using deBroglie--Bohm theory in the canonical formulation of gravity would change the constraints algebra. The new algebra is derived and shown that it is the clear projection of general…
The quantum affine $\CU_q (\hat{sl(2)}) $ symmetry is studied when $q^2$ is an even root of unity. The structure of this algebra allows a natural generalization of N=2 supersymmetry algebra. In particular it is found that the momentum…
We find two different q-generalizations of Yang-Mills theories. The corresponding lagrangians are invariant under the q-analogue of infinitesimal gauge transformations. We explicitly give the lagrangian and the transformation rules for the…
A $q$-analogue of the Higgs algebra, which describes the symmetry properties of the harmonic oscillator on the $2$-sphere, is obtained as the commutant of the $\mathfrak{o}_{q^{1/2}}(2) \oplus \mathfrak{o}_{q^{1/2}}(2)$ subalgebra of…
We give a unified construction of quantum groups, q-Boson algebras and quantized Weyl algebras and an action of quantum groups on quantized Weyl algebras. This enables us to give a conceptual proof of the semi-simplicity of the category…
The Poisson-Hopf analogue of an arbitrary quantum algebra U_z(g) is constructed by introducing a one-parameter family of quantizations U_{z,h}(g) depending explicitly on h and by taking the appropriate h -> 0 limit. The q-Poisson analogues…
