Quasitriangular Hopf Algebra

We develop the approaches of Faddeev, Reshetikhin and Takhtajan1 and Majid2 which enable one to associate a quasitriangular Hopf algebra to every regular invertible constant solution of the quantum Yang-Baxter equations. We show that such a Hopf algebra is actually a quantum double.

Quasitriangular Hopf Algebra

We introduce a quasitriangular Hopf algebra or ‘quantum group’ U(B), the double-bosonization, associated to every braided group B in the category of H-modules over a quasitriangular Hopf algebra H, such that B appears as the ‘positive root space’, H as the ‘Cartan subalgebra’ and the dual braided group B* as the ‘negative root space’ of U(B). The choice B=Uq(n+) recovers Lusztig's construction of Uq(g); other choices give more novel quantum groups. As an application, our construction provides a canonical way of building up quantum groups from smaller ones by repeatedly extending their positive and negative root spaces by linear braided groups; we explicitly construct Uq(sl3) from Uq(sl2) by this method, extending it by the quantum-braided plane. We provide a fundamental representation of U(B) in B. A projection from the quantum double, a theory of double biproducts and a Tannaka–Krein reconstruction point of view are also provided.

Quasitriangular Hopf Algebra

We give a review and some new relations on the structure of the monodromy algebra (also called loop algebra) associated with a quasitriangular Hopf algebra H. It is shown that as an algebra it coincides with the so-called braided group constructed by S. Majid on the dual of H. Gauge transformations act on monodromy algebras via the coadjoint action. Applying a result of Majid, the resulting crossed product is isomorphic to the Drinfeld double [Formula: see text]. Hence, under the so-called factorizability condition given by N. Reshetikhin and M. Semenov–Tian–Shansky, both algebras are isomorphic to the algebraic tensor product H ⊗ H. It is indicated that in this way the results of Alekseev et al. on lattice current algebras are consistent with the theory of more general Hopf spin chains given by K. Szlachányi and the author. In the Appendix the multi-loop algebras ℒm of Alekseev and Schomerus [3] are identified with braided tensor products of monodromy algebras in the sense of Majid, which leads to an explanation of the "bosonization formula" of [3] representing ℒm as H ⊗…⊗ H.

We construct an explicit isomorphism between the quasitriangular quasi-Hopf algebra [Formula: see text] defined in [D. Bulacu and F. Panaite, A generalization of the quasi-Hopf algebra [Formula: see text], Commun. Algebra 26 (1998) 4125–4141] and a certain quantum double quasi-Hopf algebra. We give also new characterizations for a quasitriangular quasi-Hopf algebra to be ribbon and use them to construct some ribbon elements for [Formula: see text].

Extra Structure

We study bialgebras and Hopf algebras in the compact closed categoryRelof sets and binary relations. Various monoidal categories with extra structure arise as the categories of (co)modules of bialgebras and Hopf algebras inRel. In particular, for any groupG, we derive a ribbon category of crossedG-sets as the category of modules of a Hopf algebra inRelthat is obtained by the quantum double construction. This category of crossedG-sets serves as a model of the braided variant of propositional linear logic.

Quasitriangular Hopf Algebra

We show that for dually paired bialgebras, every comodule algebra over one of the paired bialgebras gives a comodule algebra over their Drinfeld double via a crossed product construction. These constructions generalize to working with bialgebra objects in a braided monoidal category of modules over a quasitriangular Hopf algebra. Hence two ways to provide comodule algebras over the braided Drinfeld double (the double bosonization) are provided. Furthermore, a map of second Hopf algebra cohomology spaces is constructed. It takes a pair of 2-cocycles over dually paired Hopf algebras and produces a 2-cocycle over their Drinfeld double. This construction also has an analogue for braided Drinfeld doubles.

Chern Simons Theory

We clarify the role of Drinfeld doubles and κ-Poincaré symmetries in quantized (2+1)-gravity and Chern–Simons theory. We discuss the conditions under which a given Hopf algebra symmetry is compatible with a Chern–Simons theory and determine this compatibility explicitly for the Drinfeld doubles and κ-Poincaré symmetries associated with the isometry groups of (2+1)-gravity. In particular, we show that κ-Poincaré symmetries with a timelike deformation are not directly associated with (2+1)-gravity. The association between these κ-Poincaré symmetries and Chern–Simons theory is possible only in the de Sitter case and the relevant Chern–Simons theory is physically inequivalent to (2+1)-gravity.

AbstractLet f: H1 → H2be any pair of quasitriangular Hopf algebras over k with a Hopf algebra map f between them. We construct in this situation a quasitriangular Hopf algebra B(H1, f, H2) in the braided monoidal category of H1-modules. It consists in the same algebra as H2 with a modified comultiplication and has a quasitriangular structure given by the ratio of those of H1 and H2. This transmutation procedure trades a non-cocommutative Hopf algebra in the category of k-modules for a more cocommutative object in a more non-commutative category. As an application, every Hopf algebra containing the group algebra of ℤ2 becomes transmuted to a super-Hopf algebra.

Using diagrammatic pictures of tensor contractions, we consider a Hopf algebra(Aop⊗ℛλA*)*twisted by an elementℛλ∈A*⊗Aopcorresponding to a Hopf algebra morphismλ:A→A. We show that this Hopf algebra is quasitriangular with the universalR-matrix coming fromℛλwhenλ2=idA, generalizing the quantum double construction which corresponds to the caseλ=idA.
