The $R$-matrix presentation for the Yangian of a simple Lie algebra

We obtain an R-matrix or matrix representation of the Artin braid group acting in a canonical way on the vector space of every (super)-Lie algebra or braided-Lie algebra. The same result applies for every (super)-Hopf algebra or braided-Hopf algebra. We recover some known representations such as those associated to racks. We also obtain new representations such as a non-trivial one on the ring $k[x]$ of polynomials in one variable, regarded as a braided-line. Representations ...

Studying the algebraic structure of the double ${\cal D}Y(g)$ of the yangian $Y(g)$ we present the triangular decomposition of ${\cal D}Y(g)$ and a factorization for the canonical pairing of the yangian with its dual inside ${\cal D}Y(g)$. As a consequence we obtain an explicit formula for the universal R-matrix $R$ of ${\cal D}Y(g)$ and demonstrate how it works in evaluation representations of $Y(sl_2)$. We interprete one-dimensional factor arising in concrete representation...

We define the Drinfeld generators for $Y_3^+$, the twisted Yangian associated to the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{so}_3(\mathbb{C})$. This allows us to define shifted twisted Yangians, which are certain subalgebras of $Y_3^+$. We show that there are families of homomorphisms from the shifted twisted Yangians in $Y_3^+$ to the universal enveloping algebras of various orthogonal and symplectic Lie algebras, and we conjecture that the images of these homomorphisms are isomorphic to va...

Let $U_q(\mathfrak{g})$ denote the rational form of the quantized enveloping algebra associated to a complex simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$. Let $\lambda$ be a nonzero dominant integral weight of $\mathfrak{g}$, and let $V$ be the corresponding type $1$ finite-dimensional irreducible representation of $U_q(\mathfrak{g})$. Starting from this data, the $R$-matrix formalism for quantum groups outputs a Hopf algebra $\mathbf{U}_\mathrm{R}^\lambda(\mathfrak{g})$ defined in term...

Quantum universal enveloping algebras, quantum elliptic algebras and double (deformed) Yangians provide fundamental algebraic structures relevant for many integrable systems. They are described in the FRT formalism by R-matrices which are solutions of elliptic, trigonometric or rational type of the Yang--Baxter equation with spectral parameter or its generalization known as the Gervais--Neveu--Felder equation. While quantum groups and double Yangians appear as quasi-triangula...

We construct two-parameter deformation of an universal enveloping algebra $U(g[u])$ of a polynomial loop algebra $g[u]$, where $g$ is a finite-dimensional complex simple Lie algebra (or superalgebra). This new quantum Hopf algebra called the Drinfeldian $D_{q\eta}(g)$ can be considered as a quantization of $U(g[u])$ in the direction of a classical r-matrix which is a sum of the simple rational and trigonometric r-matrices. The Drinfeldian $D_{q\eta}(g)$ contains $U_{q}(g)$ as...

A new class of infinite dimensional representations of the Yangians $Y(\frak{g})$ and $Y(\frak{b})$ corresponding to a complex semisimple algebra $\frak{g}$ and its Borel subalgebra $\frak{b}\subset\frak{g}$ is constructed. It is based on the generalization of the Drinfeld realization of $Y(\frak{g})$, $\frak{g}=\frak{gl}(N)$ in terms of quantum minors to the case of an arbitrary semisimple Lie algebra $\frak{g}$. The Poisson geometry associated with the constructed represent...

This is an introduction to the physical pictures of {\em Yangian} symmetry. All the discussions are based on the RTT relations which have been known to be related to the Hamiltonian formulations for quantum integrable systems. The explicit calculations of {\em Yangian} associated with $gl(2)$ are given through solving the RTT relations. It contains the Drinfeld's $Y(sl(2))$, $Y(sl(n))$ and Heisenberg type of Hopf algebras. Examples are emphasized to show the physical pictures...

We discuss two-parameter deformations of an universal enveloping algebra $U(g[u])$ of a polynomial loop algebra $g[u]$, where $g$ is a finite-dimensional complex simple Lie algebra (or superalgebra). These deformations are Hopf algebras. One deformation called Drinfeldian is a quantization of $U(g[u])$ in the direction of a classical r-matrix which is a sum of the simplest rational and trigonometric r-matrices. Another deformation (discussed only for the case $g=sl_{2}$) is a...

Novikov algebras are algebras whose associators are left-symmetric and right multiplication operators are mutually commutative. A Gel'fand-Dorfman bialgebra is a vector space with a Lie algebra structure and a Novikov algebra structure, satisfying a certain compatibility condition. Such a bialgebraic structure corresponds to a certain Hamiltonian pairs in integrable systems. In this article, we present a construction of Gel'fand-Dorfman bialgebras from certain classical R-mat...
