This paper defines a pairing of two finite Hopf C*-algebras $A$ and $B$, and investigates the interactions between them. If the pairing is non-degenerate, then the quantum double construction is given. This construction yields a new finite…
We introduce a twisted quantum affine algebra associated to each simply laced finite dimensional simple Lie algebra. This new algebra is a Hopf algebra with a Drinfeld-type comultiplication. We obtain this algebra by considering its vertex…
Let $L$ be a Lie algebra with its enveloping algebra $U(L)$ over a field. In this paper we survey results concerning the isomorphism problem for enveloping algebras: given another Lie algebra $H$ for which $U(L)$ and $U(H)$ are isomorphic…
Inspired by the commutator and anticommutator algebras derived from algebras graded by groups, we introduce noncommutatively graded algebras. We generalize various classical graded results to the noncommutatively graded situation concerning…
We study in detail the structure of the Yangian Y(gl(N)) and of some new Yangian-type algebras called twisted Yangians. The algebra Y(gl(N)) is a `quantum' deformation of the universal enveloping algebra U(gl(N)[x]), where gl(N)[x] is the…
These notes present a quick introduction to the q-deformations of semisimple Lie groups from the point of view of unitary representation theory. In order to remain concrete, we concentrate entirely on the case of the lie algebra…
Braided algebras are algebraic structures consisting of an algebra endowed with a Yang-Baxter operator, satisfying some compatibility conditions.Yang-Baxter Hochschild cohomology was introduced by the authors to classify infinitesimal…
New types of bialgebras arising from the Hopf equation (pentagonal equation) are introduced and studied. They will play from the Hopf equation the same role as the co-quasitriangular do from the quantum Yang Baxter equation.
This is a brief survey on the current state of play on the programs to classify infinite dimensional Hopf algebras of Gel'fand-Kirillov dimension one or two. We list a number of open questions and suggest directions for future work.
By starting from the non-standard quantum deformation of the sl(2,R) algebra, a new quantum deformation for the real Lie algebra so(2,2) is constructed by imposing the former to be a Hopf subalgebra of the latter. The quantum so(2,2)…
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…
A new set of exact scattering matrices in 1+1 dimensions is proposed by solving the bootstrap equations. Extending earlier constructions of colour valued scattering matrices this new set has its colour structure associated to non…
The goal of this paper is to give a new method of constructing finite-dimensional semisimple triangular Hopf algebras, including minimal ones which are non-trivial (i.e. not group algebras). The paper shows that such Hopf algebras are quite…
We introduce a modified quantum enveloping algebra as well as a (modified) covering quantum algebra for the ortho-symplectic Lie superalgebra osp(1|2). Then we formulate and compute the corresponding canonical bases, and relate them to the…
We describe a collection of differential graded rings that categorify weight spaces of the positive half of the quantized universal enveloping algebra of the Lie superalgebra gl(1|2).
An elliptic two-parameter deformation of the (universal enveloping superalgebra of) affine Lie superalgebra $osp(1|2)^{(1)}$ is proposed in terms of free boson realization. This deformed superalgebra is shown to fit in the framework of…
Enveloping algebras of Hom-Lie and Hom-Leibniz algebras are constructed.
This is a brief survey of some recent developments in the study of infinite dimensional Hopf algebras which are either noetherian or have finite Gelfand-Kirillov dimension. A number of open questions are listed.
Notions of quasi-classical Lie-super algebra as well as Lie-super triple systems have been given and studied with some examples. Its application to Yang-Baxter equation has also been given.
The recent focus on deformations of algebras called quantum algebras can be attributed to the fact that they appear to be the basic algebraic structures underlying an amazingly diverse set of physical situations. To date many interesting…
