Tannakian formalism for topological Hopf algebras

Tannaka-Krein duality allows, under the appropriate assumptions, to reconstruct a Hopf algebra from its category of modules. This method was found to be powerful for instance in the work of Etingof-...

What is the name of the Hopf algebra whose comodules are the "positive" highest weight modules of $U_{q}(sl(2))$?

The finite-dimensional representations over $\mathbb C(q)$ of $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}(2))$ are all highest weight. There are two irreducible modules of each dimension. In one, the highest weight vector $v$ ...

quantum deformations of tensor category

I was told that, if I understand correctly, that the enveloping algebra of semisimple Lie algebra admits one family of quantum deformation as Hopf algebra, which was proved by Drinfeld. Anyone can ...
