We propose a definition of a quantised -differential algebra and show that the quantised exterior algebra (defined by Berenstein and Zwicknagl) and the quantised Clifford algebra (defined by the authors) of are natural examples of such algebras.
In this paper we recall the concept of Hamiltonian system in the canonical and Poisson settings. We will discuss the quantization of the Hamiltonian systems in the Poisson context, using formal deformation quantization and quantum group theories.
We provide a novel construction of quantized universal enveloping -algebras of real semisimple Lie algebras, based on Letzter’s theory of quantum symmetric pairs. We show that these structures can be ‘integrated’, leading to a quantization of the group C-algebra of an arbitrary semisimple algebraic real Lie group.
The goal of this expository paper is to give a quick introduction to -deformations of semisimple Lie groups. We discuss principally the rank one examples of , , and related algebras. We treat quantized enveloping algebras, representations of , generalities on Hopf algebras and quantum groups, -structures, quantized algebras of functions on -deformed compact semisimple groups, the Peter-Weyl theorem, -Hopf algebras associated to complex semisimple Lie groups and the Drinfeld double, representations...
An approach to construction of a quantum group gauge theory based on the quantum group generalisation of fibre bundles is reviewed.
We study the discrete groups whose duals embed into a given compact quantum group, . In the matrix case the embedding condition is equivalent to having a quotient map , where is a certain family of groups associated to . We develop here a number of techniques for computing , partly inspired from Bichon’s classification of group dual subgroups . These results are motivated by Goswami’s notion of quantum isometry group, because a compact connected Riemannian manifold cannot have non-abelian...
