We examine PBW deformations of finite group extensions of quantum symmetric algebras, in particular the quantum Drinfeld orbifold algebras defined by the first author. We give a homological interpretation, in terms of Gerstenhaber brackets, of the necessary and sufficient conditions on parameter functions to define a quantum Drinfeld orbifold algebra, thus clarifying the conditions. In case the acting group is trivial, we determine conditions under which such a PBW deformation is a generalized enveloping algebra of a color Lie algebra; our PBW deformations include these algebras as a special case.

If A, B, H, K are abelian group and φ: A → H and ψ: B → K are epimorphisms, then a given central group extension G of H by K is not necessarily a homomorphic image of a group extension of A by B. Take for instance A = Z(2), B = Z ⊕ Z, H = Z(2), K = V4 (Klein's fourgroup). Then the dihedral group D8 is a central extension of H by K but it is not a homomorphic image of Z ⊕ Z ⊕ Z(2), the only group extension of A by the free group B.
