Does a dual basis for $U_h(\mathfrak{sl}_2(\mathbb{C}))$ exist?
Let $\mathcal{F}_h(\operatorname{SL}_2(\mathbb{C}))$ be the $\mathbb{C}[[h]]$-algebra generated by $a, b, c, d$ subject to the following relations:
\begin{align*}
& ac = e^{-h}ca, \quad bd = e^{-h}...

A filtration on Drinfeld-Jimbo quantum enveloping algebras
For the universal enveloping algebra $U(\frak{g})$ of a Lie algebra $\frak{g}$, one can define in a natural way an increasing $\mathbb{N}_{0}$-filtration. By the Poincaré-Birkhoff–Witt theorem, the ...

The double cover in the classical limit of $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$
I am trying to learn about Drinfeld–Jimbo quantum groups and I am having trouble with the classical limit of $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$. When properly expressed the limit makes sense as $q\to 1$ — see for ...
