Let $(H, \sigma)$ be a coquasitriangular Hopf algebra, not necessarily finite dimensional. Following methods of Doi and Takeuchi, which parallel the constructions of Radford in the case of finite dimensional quasitriangular Hopf algebras,…
In this paper, we classify all prime Hopf algebras $H$ of GK-dimension one satisfying the following two conditions: 1) $H$ has a 1-dimensional representation of order PI.deg$(H)$ and 2) the invariant components of $H$ with respect to this…
We develop a technique for studying first-order codifferential calculi (FOCCs) initiated by Doi and Quillen in the context of cyclic cohomology. Their classification, for a given coalgebra, reduces to the classification of subbicomodules in…
We propose a sheaf-theoretic approach to the theory of differential calculi on quantum principal bundles over non-affine bases. After recalling the affine case we define differential calculi on sheaves of comodule algebras as sheaves of…
Let $H$ be a finite dimensional semisimple Hopf algebra, $A$ a differential graded (dg for short) $H$-module algebra. Then the smash product algebra $A\#H$ is a dg algebra. For any dg $A\#H$-module $M$, there is a quasi-isomorphism of dg…
We introduce a graded Hopf algebra based on the set of parking functions (hence of dimension (n+1)^{n-1} in degree n). This algebra can be embedded into a noncommutative polynomial algebra in infinitely many variables. We determine its…

For a given finite dimensional Hopf algebra $H$ we describe the set of all equivalence classes of cocycle deformations of $H$ as an affine variety, using methods of geometric invariant theory. We show how our results specialize to the…
We give a complete classification of bicovariant first order differential calculi on the quantum enveloping algebra U_q(b+) which we view as the quantum function algebra C_q(B+). Here, b+ is the Borel subalgebra of sl_2. We do the same in…
We construct new examples of left bialgebroids and Hopf algebroids, arising from noncommutative geometry. Given a first order differential calculus $\Omega$ on an algebra $A$, with the space of left vector fields $\mathfrak{X}$, we…
Contracting the $h$-deformation of $\SL(2,\Real)$, we construct a new deformation of two dimensional Poincar\'e algebra, the algebra of functions on its group and its differential structure. It is also shown that the Hopf algebra is…
Two differential calculi are developped on an algebra generalizing the usual q-oscillator algebra and involving three generators and three parameters. They are shown to be invariant under the same quantum group that is extended to a…
We study a possibility to define the (braided) comultiplication for the GLq(N)-covariant differential complexes on some quantum spaces. We discover such `differential bialgebras' (and Hopf algebras) on the bosonic and fermionic quantum…
On the exterior algebra over the quantum SU(2) coming from the four dimensional bicovariant calculus \`a la Woronowicz we introduce, using sesquilinear contraction maps, a class of metrics and Hodge duality operators, and compare this…
The bicovariant differential calculi on quantum groups of Woronowicz have the drawback that their dimensions do not agree with that of the corresponding classical calculus. In this paper we discuss the first-order differential calculus…
We associate to any (suitable) bicovariant differential calculus on a quantum group a Cartan Hopf algebra which has a left, respectively right, representation in terms of left, respectively right, Cartan calculus operators. The example of…
