We introduce a concept of an embedding of a quadratic space in an associative algebra. The general properties of such embeddings are analyzed by linking it to the Clifford algebra. Conversely, there isa simple description of the standard…

Using the theory of covering groups of Schur we prove that the two Nichols algebras associated to the conjugacy class of transpositions in S_n are equivalent by twist and hence they have the same Hilbert series. These algebras appear in the…

In this paper we construct "structural" pre-braidings characterizing different algebraic structures: a rack, an associative algebra, a Leibniz algebra and their representations. Some of these pre-braidings seem original. On the other hand,…

We study the Nichols algebra of a semisimple Yetter-Drinfeld module and introduce new invariants such as real roots. The crucial ingredient is a `reflection' in the class of such Nichols algebras. We conclude the classifications of…

The concept of arithmetic root systems is introduced. It is shown that there is a one-to-one correspondence between arithmetic root systems and Nichols algebras of diagonal type having a finite set of (restricted) Poincare'-Birkhoff-Witt…

Given an algebra $A$ and an $A-A$-bimodule $U$ with co-algebra structure, a bocs, the algebras of endomorphisms of $A$ as left or right module of the bocs are known as Burt-Butler algebras (up to an appropriate opposite). Here we give a…

We particularise the construction of generalised Kac-Moody algebras associated to compact real manifolds to the case of the two-torus $\mathbb T_2$ and the two-sphere ${\mathbb S}^2$. It is shown that these algebras, as well as a Virasoro…

Various properties of a class of braid matrices, presented before, are studied considering $N^2 \times N^2 (N=3,4,...)$ vector representations for two subclasses. For $q=1$ the matrices are nontrivial. Triangularity $(\hat R^2 =I)$…

$*$-structures on quantum and braided spaces of the type defined via an R-matrix are studied. These include $q$-Minkowski and $q$-Euclidean spaces as additive braided groups. The duality between the $*$-braided groups of vectors and…

There exists two types of nonassociative algebras whose associator satisfies a symmetric relation associated with a 1-dimensional invariant vector space with respect to the natural action of the symmetric group on three elements. The first…

We show that braided, sylleptic and symmetric monoidal bicategories are precisely the $\mathsf{E}_k$-monoids in the cartesian monoidal $(\infty,1)$-category of bicategories for respective integers $k$. To manage the underlying computations,…

Let $V$ be a braided vector space, that is, a vector space together with a solution $\hat{R}\in {\text{End}}(V\otimes V)$ of the Yang--Baxter equation. Denote $T(V):=\bigoplus_k V^{\otimes k}$. We associate to $\hat{R}$ a solution…

We find a new braided Hopf structure for the algebra satisfied by the entries of the braided matrix $BSL_q(2)$. A new nonbraided algebra whose coalgebra structure is the same as the braided one is found to be a two parameter deformed…

Clifford algebras are important structures in Geometric Algebra and Quantum Mechanics. They have allowed a formalization of the primitive operators in Quantum Theory. The algebras are built over vector spaces with dimension a power of 2…

We consider the R-matrix of the quantum toroidal algebra of type gl_1, both abstractly and in Fock space representations. We provide a survey of a certain point of view on this object which involves the elliptic Hall and shuffle algebras,…

The $12$-dimensional Fomin-Kirillov algebra $FK_3$ is defined as the quadratic algebra with generators $a$, $b$ and $c$ which satisfy the relations $a^2=b^2=c^2=0$ and $ab+bc+ca=0=ba+cb+ac$. By a result of A. Milinski and H.-J. Schneider,…

In Quantum Mechanics operators must be hermitian and, in a direct product space, symmetric. These properties are saved by Lie algebra operators but not by those of quantum algebras. A possible correspondence between observables and quantum…

We introduce a modified version of the necklace Lie bialgebra associated to a quiver, in which the bracket and cobracket insert (rather than remove) pairs of arrows in involution. This structure is then related to canonical quartic…

Let $\mathcal{B}_{\mathfrak{q}}$ be a finite-dimensional Nichols algebra of diagonal type corresponding to a matrix $\mathfrak{q} \in \mathbf{k}^{\theta \times \theta}$, where $\mathbf{k}$ is an algebraically closed field of characteristic…

Motivated by work of Kac and Lusztig, we define a root system and a Weyl groupoid for a large class of semisimple Yetter-Drinfeld modules over an arbitrary Hopf algebra. The obtained combinatorial structure fits perfectly into an existing…
