Quantum idempotence, distributivity, and the Yang-Baxter equation

J. D. H. Smith (2016)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Quantum quasigroups and loops are self-dual objects that provide a general framework for the nonassociative extension of quantum group techniques. They also have one-sided analogues, which are not self-dual. In this paper, natural quantum versions of idempotence and distributivity are specified for these and related structures. Quantum distributive structures furnish solutions to the quantum Yang-Baxter equation.

Quasitriangular Hom-Hopf algebras

Yuanyuan Chen, Zhongwei Wang, Liangyun Zhang (2014)

Colloquium Mathematicae

A twisted generalization of quasitriangular Hopf algebras called quasitriangular Hom-Hopf algebras is introduced. We characterize these algebras in terms of certain morphisms. We also give their equivalent description via a braided monoidal category ̃ ( H ) . Finally, we study the twisting structure of quasitriangular Hom-Hopf algebras by conjugation with Hom-2-cocycles.

Quasitriangular Hopf group algebras and braided monoidal categories

Shiyin Zhao, Jing Wang, Hui-Xiang Chen (2014)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Let π be a group, and H be a semi-Hopf π -algebra. We first show that the category H of left π -modules over H is a monoidal category with a suitably defined tensor product and each element α in π induces a strict monoidal functor F α from H to itself. Then we introduce the concept of quasitriangular semi-Hopf π -algebra, and show that a semi-Hopf π -algebra H is quasitriangular if and only if the category H is a braided monoidal category and F α is a strict braided monoidal functor for any α π . Finally,...

Quiver bialgebras and monoidal categories

Hua-Lin Huang, Blas Torrecillas (2013)

Colloquium Mathematicae

We study bialgebra structures on quiver coalgebras and monoidal structures on the categories of locally nilpotent and locally finite quiver representations. It is shown that the path coalgebra of an arbitrary quiver admits natural bialgebra structures. This endows the category of locally nilpotent and locally finite representations of an arbitrary quiver with natural monoidal structures from bialgebras. We also obtain theorems of Gabriel type for pointed bialgebras and hereditary finite pointed...
