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…
Two "quantum enveloping algebras", here denoted by $U(R)$ and $U^{\sim}(R)$, are associated in [FRTa] and [FRTb] to any Yang-Baxter operator R. The latter is only a bialgebra, in general; the former is a Hopf algebra. In this paper, we…
To construct a quantum group gauge theory one needs an algebra which is invariant under gauge transformations. The existence of this invariant algebra is closely related with the existence of a differential algebra $\delta _{{\cal H}}…
Given a Hopf algebra $H$ and a counital $2$-cocycle $\mu$ on $H$, Drinfeld introduced a notion of twist which deforms an $H$-module algebra $A$ into a new algebra $A_\mu$. We show that when $A$ is a quadratic algebra, and $H$ acts on $A$ by…
We introduce the notion of Hopf algebroids, in which neither the total algebras nor the base algebras are required to be commutative. We give a class of Hopf algebroids associated to module algebras of the Drinfeld doubles of Hopf algebras…
The study of the pentagon (fusion) equation leds to the Structure and the Classification theorem for finite dimenasional Hopf algebras: there exists a one to one correspondence between the set of types of n-dimensional Hopf algebtras and…
In this Letter, we introduce the Hopf algebra structure of the quantum quaternionic group GL(1,H$_q)$ and discuss the isomorphism between the quantum symplectic group SP$_q(1)$ and the quantum unitary group SU$_q(2)$.
We introduce a notion of Hopf-Lie-Rinehart algebra and show that the universal algebra of a Hopf-Lie-Rinehart algebra acquires an ordinary Hopf algebra structure.
The isomorphism between Drinfeld's new realization and the FRT realization is proved for the Yangian algebra Y(so_3) by using Gauss decomposition.
We consider finite-dimensional Hopf algebras $u$ which admit a smooth deformation $U\to u$ by a Noetherian Hopf algebra $U$ of finite global dimension. Examples of such Hopf algebras include small quantum groups over the complex numbers,…
We construct quasi-Hopf algebras quantizing double extensions of the Manin pairs of Drinfeld, associated to a curve with a meromorphic differential, and the Lie algebra sl(2). This construction makes use of an analysis of the vertex…
We generalise the quantum double construction of Drinfel'd to the case of the (Hopf) algebra of suitable functions on a compact or locally compact group. We will concentrate on the *-algebra structure of the quantum double. If the conjugacy…
We propose a new realization of the elliptic quantum group equipped with the H-Hopf algebroid structure on the basis of the elliptic algebra U_{q,p}(\hat{sl}_2). The algebra U_{q,p}(\hat{sl}_2) has a constructive definition in terms of the…
We study the preprojective cohomological Hall algebra (CoHA) introduced by the authors in an earlier work for any quiver $Q$ and any one-parameter formal group $\mathbb{G}$. In this paper, we construct a comultiplication on the CoHA, making…
We generalize various properties of Yetter-Drinfeld modules over Hopf algebras to quasi-Hopf algebras. The dual of a finite dimensional Yetter-Drinfeld module is again a Yetter-Drinfeld module. The algebra $H_0$ in the category of…
We construct Drinfeld realisations for the quantum affine superalgebras associated with the osp(1|2n)^{(1)}, Sl(1|2n)^{(2)} and osp(2|2n)^{(2)} series of affine Lie superalgebras.
We study the Heisenberg double and the Drinfeld double of the Borel half of $Uq (gl(1|1))$ and of the $Uq (gl(1|1))$ when q is a root of unity. We also study the Borel half of Uq (osp(1|2)) for both cases when qis a root of unity and when…
We give an explicit formula for the correspondence between simple Yetter-Drinfeld modules for certain finite-dimensional pointed Hopf algebras $H$ and those for cocycle twists $H^{\sigma}$ of $H$. This implies an equivalence between modules…
Lead by examples we introduce the notions of Hopf algebra and quantum group. We study their geometry and in particular their Lie algebra (of left invariant vectorfields). The examples of the quantum sl(2) Lie algebra and of the quantum…
We introduce the notion of iHopf algebra, a new associative algebra structure defined on a Hopf algebra equipped with a Hopf pairing. The iHopf algebra on a Borel quantum group endowed with a $\tau$-twisted Hopf pairing is shown to be a…
