The elements of the wide class of quantum universal enveloping algebras are prooved to be Hopf algebras $H$ with spectrum $Q(H)$ in the category of groups. Such quantum algebras are quantum groups for simply connected solvable Lie groups…
We define and investigate pairings of multiplier Hopf algebras. It is shown that two dually paired regular multiplier Hopf ($*$-)algebras $A$ and $B$ yield a quantum double multiplier Hopf ($*$-)algebra which is again regular. Integrals on…
By using cocycle deformation, we construct a certain class of Hopf algebras, containing the quantized enveloping algebras and their analogues, from what we call pre-Nichols algebras. Our construction generalizes in some sense the known…
Attention is focused on quantum spaces of particular importance in physics, i.e. two-dimensional quantum plane, q-deformed Euclidean space in three or four dimensions, and q-deformed Minkowski space. Each of these quantum spaces can be…
We introduce and investigate the basic properties of an involutory (dual) quasi-Hopf algebra. We also study the representations of an involutory quasi-Hopf algebra and prove that an involutory dual quasi-Hopf algebra with non-zero integral…
Using deformations inspired by relativistic considerations and phase space symmetry, we deform the position and momentum operators in one dimension. The resulting algebra is shown to yield the q-oscillator algebra in one limiting case and…
We formulate a conjecture, stating that the algebra of $n$ pairs of deformed Bose creation and annihilation operators is a factor-algebra of $U_q[osp(1/2n)]$, considered as a Hopf algebra, and prove it for $n=2$ case. To this end we show…
We define admissible quasi-Hopf quantized universal enveloping (QHQUE) algebras by h-adic valuation conditions. We show that any QHQUE algebra is twist-equivalent to an admissible one. We prove a related statement: any associator is…
The quantum algebra suq(2) is introduced as a deformation of the ordinary Lie algebra su(2). This is achieved in a simple way by making use of $q$-bosons. In connection with the quantum algebra suq(2), we discuss the q-analogues of the…
Starting from a faithful five-dimensional matrix representation of the group of two independent oscillators and applying the R-matrix method we generate some classes of deformed fermionic-bosonic quantum Hopf algebras. The corresponding Lie…
Let $A$ be a partial *-algebra endowed with a topology $\tau$ that makes it into a locally convex topological vector space $A[\tau]$. Then $A$ is called a topological partial *-algebra if it satisfies a number of conditions, which all…
The basics of quasitriangular Hopf algebras and quantum Lie algebras are briefly reviewed, and it is shown that their properties allow the introduction of a Killing form. For quantum Lie algebras, this leads to the definitions of a Killing…
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…
We say that a Hopf algebra H is semicocommutative if the right adjoint coaction factorizes through the tensor product of H with the center of H. For instance the commutative and the cocommutative Hopf algebras are semicocommutative. The…
The main notions of the quantum groups: coproduct, action and coaction, representation and corepresentation are discussed using simplest examples: $GL_q(2)$, $sl_q(2)$, $q$-oscillator algebra ${\cal A}(q)$, and reflection equation algebra.…
Lie groups and quantum algebras are connected through their common universal enveloping algebra. The adjoint action of Lie group on its algebra is naturally extended to related q-algebra and q-coalgebra. In such a way, quantum structure can…

Given a Heisenberg algebra A of canonical commutation relations modelled over an infinite-dimensional nuclear space, a Hopf algebra of its quantum deformations is also an algebra of canonical commutation relations whose Fock representation…
Operator angle-action variables are studied in the frame of the SU(2) algebra, and their eigenstates and coherent states are discussed. The quantum mechanical addition of action-angle variables is shown to lead to a novel non commutative…
We consider a q-analogue of the standard bilinear form on the commutative ring of symmetric functions. The q=-1 case leads to a Z-graded Hopf superalgebra which we call the algebra of odd symmetric functions. In the odd setting we describe…
