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 $R$…

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 a new quantized enveloping superalgebra $\mathfrak{U}_q{\mathfrak{p}}_n$ attached to the Lie superalgebra ${\mathfrak{p}}_n$ of type $P$. The superalgebra $\mathfrak{U}_q{\mathfrak{p}}_n$ is a quantization of a Lie…

We define a semi-Hopf algebra which is more general than a Hopf algebra. Then we construct the supersymmetry algebra via the adjoint action on this semi-Hopf algebra. As a result we have a supersymmetry theory with quantum gauge group,…

For a noncommutative configuration space whose coordinate algebra is the universal enveloping algebra of a finite dimensional Lie algebra, it is known how to introduce an extension playing the role of the corresponding noncommutative phase…

There is a surprising isomorphism between the quantised universal enveloping algebras of osp(1|2n) and so(2n+1). This same isomorphism emerged in recent work of Mikhaylov and Witten in the context of string theory as a T-duality composed…

We give examples of Lie-Rinehart algebras whose enveloping algebra is not a full Hopf algebroid in the sense of Bohm and Szlachanyi. We construct these examples as quotients of a canonical Lie-Rinehart algebra over a Jacobi algebra which…

We construct a family of connected Hopf algebras with finite Gelfand-Kirillov dimension, none of which is an iterated Hopf Ore extension of the universal enveloping algebra of its primitive part. This provides a negative answer to a…

We introduce the concept of a covering of a graded pointed Hopf algebra. The theory developed shows that coverings of a bosonized Nichols algebra can be concretely expressed by biproducts using a quotient of the universal coalgebra covering…

We give a selfcontained introduction to the theory of quantum groups according to Drinfeld highlighting the formal aspects as well as the applications to the Yang-Baxter equation and representation theory. Introductions to Hopf algebras,…

A proof of Poincar\'e-Birkhoff-Witt theorem is given for a class of generalized Lie algebras closely related to the Gurevich S-Lie algebras. As concrete examples, we construct the positive (negative) parts of the quantized universal…

The Calabi-Yau property of cocommutative Hopf algebras is discussed by using the homological integral, a recently introduced tool for studying infinite dimensional AS-Gorenstein Hopf algebras. It is shown that the skew-group algebra of a…

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.

In this paper, we present an approach to the definition of multiparameter quantum groups by studying Hopf algebras with triangular decomposition. Classifying all of these Hopf algebras which are of what we call weakly separable type over a…

Motivated by the fact that the Hopf-cyclic (co)homologies of function algebras over Lie groups and universal enveloping algebras over Lie algebras capture the Lie group and Lie algebra (co)homologies, we hereby upgrade the classical van Est…

We introduce a general notion of quantum universal enveloping algebroids (QUE algebroids), or quantum groupoids, as a unification of quantum groups and star-products. Some basic properties are studied including the twist construction and…

The (G, \theta)-Lie algebras are structures which unify the Lie algebras and Lie superalgebras. We use them to produce solutions for the quantum Yang-Baxter equation. The constant and the spectral-parameter Yang-Baxter equations and…

In this article we use a parametrized version of the FRT construction to construct two new coquasitriangular Hopf algebras. The first one, $\widehat{SL_q(2)}$, is a quantization of the coordinate ring on affine $SL(2)$. We show that there…

In this paper, we define and study the universal enveloping algebra of a Poisson superalgebra. In particular, a new PBW Theorem for Lie-Rinehart superalgebras is proved leading to a PBW Theorem for Poisson superalgebras, we show the…

For a class of pointed Hopf algebras including the quantized enveloping algebras, we discuss cleft extensions, cocycle deformations and the second cohomology. We present such a non-standard method of computing the abelian second cohomology…
