We study the dynamical analogue of the matrix algebraM(n), constructed from a dynamicalR-matrix given by Etingof and Varchenko. A left and a right corepresentation of this algebra, which can be seen as analogues of the exterior algebra representation, are defined and this defines dynamical quantum minor determinants as the matrix elements of these corepresentations. These elements are studied in more detail, especially the action of the comultiplication and Laplace expansions. Using the Laplace expansions we can prove that the dynamical quantum determinant is almost central, and adjoining an inverse the antipode can be defined. This results in the dynamicalGL(n)quantum group associated to the dynamicalR-matrix. We study a∗-structure leading to the dynamicalU(n)quantum group, and we obtain results for the canonical pairing arising from theR-matrix.
