Representations of $C\left(SO_q(n)\right)$

A complete classification of irreducible representations of the $C^*$-algebra $C(G_q)$, where $G_q$ is the $q$-deformation of a classical simply connected semisimple compact Lie group, was provided by ...

Category O for (Yangian) toroidal Lie algebras?

Suppose throughout that $g$ is a finite-dimensional simple Lie algebra over $\mathbb{C}$ and let us denote: $$g_{[2]} := g \otimes_{\mathbb{C}} \mathbb{C}[v^{\pm 1}, t^{\pm 1}]$$ $$g_{[2]}^+ := g \...

parameter of a quantum group

I am currently learning about quantum groups, and I got a question about how two different ways of thinking the $q$-parameter of quantum groups are related to each other. Here by a quantum group, I ...

Tensor representations of the quantum algebra $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}(2))$ at the roots of unity

I'm trying to understand how the representation theory of $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}(2))$ works and I had a look to some books and lecture notes available on the internet. The case of $q^m\neq1$ is discussed ...

What is the kernel of the action of the Iwahori-Hecke algebra?

The Iwahori-Hecke algebra $H_n(q)$ acts on the $n$th tensor power of the standard representation of $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}_m)$. What is the kernel of this action? Does anyone know a reference? I'm happy ...

Does the Leclerc-Thibon involution exchange vertex operators of the first and second type?

This question is about $U_q ( \hat{\mathfrak{sl}}_2 )$ representation theory. There is a notion of vertex operators $\Phi_{\pm }(z)$ of first and $\Psi_{\pm}(z)$ of the second type. They are defined ...

The Irreducible Representations of the Sekine Quantum Groups

Here Y. Sekine introduces a one-parameter family of finite quantum groups of dimension $2n^2$. Let $n\geq 3$ be fixed and $\zeta=e^{2\pi i/n}$. Set $$\mathcal{B}_n=\mathbb{Z}_n\times\mathbb{Z}_n=\{(i,...

Reference for $q^{\eta\sum_{i}t_{\lambda_{i}}\otimes t_{\mu_{i}}}$ part of an expression for universal $R$-matrix of a quantum group algebra

The Wikipedia entry for quantum groups states that a quantum group $U_{q}\left(\mathfrak{g}\right)$ has an infinite formal sum that plays the role of an $R$ matrix, which is the product of two factors,...

Convex PBW bases

Given a reduced expression for the longest word $w_0$ in the Weyl group of $\mathfrak{g}=\mathfrak{n}^+\oplus\mathfrak{h}\oplus{n}^-$, one obtains a convex ordering on the set of positive roots, $\...
