We construct a realization of a deformation of the Lie algebra of a group in terms of the generators of the classical Lie algebra of the group. The construction works for arbitrary (odd) deforming functions and, as a special case, it reproduces the standard quantum deformation of the algebra. For all these functions it gives a co-multiplication, that is, a group homomorphism, and provides an antipode and a co-unit. It therefore promotes any arbitrary deformation into a Hopf algebra.

AbstractViewing the space of cotraces in the structural coalgebra of a principal coaction as a noncommutative counterpart of the classical Cartan model, we construct the cyclic-homology Chern–Weil homomorphism. To realize the thus constructed Chern–Weil homomorphism as a Cartan model of the homomorphism tautologically induced by the classifying map on cohomology, we replace the unital subalgebra of coaction-invariants by its natural H-unital nilpotent extension (row extension). Although the row-extension algebra provides a drastically different model of the cyclic object, we prove that, for any row extension of any unital algebra over a commutative ring, the row-extension Hochschild complex and the usual Hochschild complex are chain homotopy equivalent. It is the discovery of an explicit homotopy formula that allows us to improve the homological quasi-isomorphism arguments of Loday and Wodzicki. We work with families of principal coactions, and instantiate our noncommutative Chern–Weil theory by computing the cotrace space and analyzing a dimension-drop-like effect in the spirit of Feng and Tsygan for the quantum-deformation family of the standard quantum Hopf fibrations.

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.

AbstractIn this study, we introduce a dual Hopf algebra in the sense of Sudbery for the quantum space(3) whose coordinates satisfy the commutation relations with two parameters and we show that the dual algebra is isomorphic to the quantum Lie algebra corresponding to the Cartan-Maurer right invariant differential forms on the quantum space(3). We also observe that the quantum Lie algebra generators are commutative as those of the undeformed Lie algebra and the deformation becomes apparent when one studies the Leibniz rules for the generators.

We study the structure of a quantum algebra in which a parity-violating term modifies the standard commutation relation between the creation and annihilation operators of the simple harmonic oscillator. We discuss several useful applications of the modified algebra. We show that the Bernoulli and Euler numbers arise naturally in a special case. We also show a connection with Gaussian and non-Gaussian squeezed states of the simple harmonic oscillator. Such states have been considered in quantum optics. The combinatorial theory of Bernoulli and Euler numbers is developed and used to calculate matrix elements for squeezed states.

Abstract The quantum co-ordinate algebra Aq(g) associated to a Kac–Moody Lie algebra g forms a Hopf algebra whose comodules are direct sums of finite-dimensional irreducible Uq(g) modules. In this paper, we investigate whether an analogous result is true when q=0. We classify crystal bases as coalgebras over a comonadic functor on the category of pointed sets and encode the monoidal structure of crystals into a bicomonadic structure. In doing this, we prove that there is no coalgebra in the category of pointed sets whose comodules are equivalent to crystal bases. We then construct a bialgebra over Z whose based comodules are equivalent to crystals, which we conjecture is linked to Lusztig’s quantum group at v=∞.

The hermitian part [Formula: see text] of the Banach-Lie *-algebra [Formula: see text] of multiplication operators on the W *-algebra A is a unital GM-space, the base of the dual cone in the dual GL-space [Formula: see text] of which is affine isomorphic and weak*-homeomorphic to the state space of [Formula: see text]. It is shown that there exists a Lie *-isomorphism ϕ from the quotient (A ⊕∞ Aop)/K of an enveloping W *-algebra A ⊕∞ Aop of A by a weak*-closed Lie *-ideal K onto [Formula: see text], the restriction to the hermitian part ((A ⊕∞ Aop)/K)h of which is a bi-positive real linear isometry, thereby giving a characterization of the state space of [Formula: see text]. In the special case in which A is a W *-factor this leads to a further identification of the state space of [Formula: see text] in terms of the state space of A. For any W *-algebra A, the Banach-Lie *-algebra [Formula: see text] coincides with the set of generalized derivations of A, and, as an application, a formula is obtained for the norm of an element of [Formula: see text] in terms of a centre-valued 'norm' on A, which is similar to that previously obtained by non-order-theoretic methods.

It is demonstrated by using the technique of Lie algebra SU(2) that the problem of two-level systems described by arbitrary time-dependent Hamiltonians can be solved exactly. A closed-form solution of the evolution operator is presented, from which the results for any special case can be deduced.
