Hopf algebroid structures on the Weyl algebra (phase space) are presented. We define the coproduct for the Weyl generators from Leibniz rule. The codomain of the coproduct is modified in order to obtain an algebra structure. We use the dual base to construct the target map and antipode. The notion of twist is analyzed for $κ$-deformed phase space in Hopf algebroid setting. It is outlined how the twist in the Hopf algebroid setting reproduces the full Hopf algebra structure of $κ$-Poincaré algebra. Several examples of realizations are worked out in details.
We show that in analogy to the introduction of Poisson structures twisted by a closed 3-form by Park and Klimcik-Strobl, the study of three dimensional sigma models with Wess-Zumino term leads in a likewise way to twisting of Courant algebroid structures by closed 4-forms H. The presentation is kept pedagogical and accessible to physicists as well as to mathematicians, explaining in detail in particular the interplay of field transformations in a sigma model with the type of geometrical structures induced on a target. In fact, as we also show, even if one does not know the mathematical concept…
We investigate a class of Leibniz algebroids which are invariant under diffeomorphisms and symmetries involving collections of closed forms. Under appropriate assumptions we arrive at a classification which in particular gives a construction starting from graded Lie algebras. In this case the Leibniz bracket is a derived bracket and there are higher derived brackets resulting in an $L_\infty$-structure. The algebroids can be twisted by a non-abelian cohomology class and we prove that the twisting class is described by a Maurer-Cartan equation. For compact manifolds we construct a Kuranishi mod…
We consider new Abelian twists of Poincare algebra describing non-symmetric generalization of the ones given in [1], which lead to the class of Lie-deformed quantum Minkowski spaces. We apply corresponding twist quantization in two ways: as generating quantum Poincare-Hopf algebra providing quantum Poincare symmetries, and by considering the quantization which provides Hopf algebroid describing the class of quantum relativistic phase spaces with built-in quantum Poincare covariance. If we assume that Lorentz generators are orbital i.e.do not describe spin degrees of freedom, one can embed the …
We present two classes of examples of Hopf algebroids associated with noncommutative principal bundles. The first comes from deforming the principal bundle while leaving unchanged the structure Hopf algebra. The second is related to deforming a quantum homogeneous space; this needs a careful deformation of the structure Hopf algebra in order to preserve the compatibilities between the Hopf algebra operations.
In our earlier article [Lett. Math. Phys. 107 (2017), 475-503, arXiv:1409.8188], we explicitly described a topological Hopf algebroid playing the role of the noncommutative phase space of Lie algebra type. Ping Xu has shown that every deformation quantization leads to a Drinfeld twist of the associative bialgebroid of h-adic series of differential operators on a fixed Poisson manifold. In the case of linear Poisson structures, the twisted bialgebroid essentially coincides with our construction. Using our explicit description of the Hopf algebroid, we compute the corresponding Drinfeld twist ex…
We show that a class of braided Hopf algebras, which includes the braided $SU_q(2)$ is obtained by twisting. We show further examples and demonstrate that twisting of bicovariant differential calculi gives braided bicovariant differential calculi.
Recently, S. Meljanac proposed a construction of a class of examples of an algebraic structure with properties very close to the Hopf algebroids $H$ over a noncommutative base $A$ of other authors. His examples come along with a subalgebra $\mathcal{B}$ of $H\otimes H$, here called the balancing subalgebra, which contains the image of the coproduct and such that the intersection of $\mathcal{B}$ with the kernel of the projection $H\otimes H\to H\otimes_A H$ is a two-sided ideal in $\mathcal{B}$ which is moreover well behaved with respect to the antipode. We propose a set of abstract axioms cov…
The $(4+4)$-dimensional $κ$-deformed quantum phase space as well as its $(10+10)$-dimensional covariant extension by the Lorentz sector can be described as Heisenberg doubles: the $(10+10)$-dimensional quantum phase space is the double of $D=4$ $κ$-deformed Poincaré Hopf algebra $\mathbb{H}$ and the standard $(4+4)$-dimensional space is its subalgebra generated by $κ$-Minkowski coordinates $\hat{x}_μ$ and corresponding commuting momenta $\hat{p}_μ$. Every Heisenberg double appears as the total algebra of a Hopf algebroid over a base algebra which is in our case the coordinate sector. We exhibi…
For a noncommutative configuration space whose coordinate algebra is the universal enveloping algebra of a finite dimensional Lie algebra, it is known how to introduce an extension playing the role of the corresponding noncommutative phase space, namely by adding the commuting deformed derivatives in a consistent and nontrivial way, therefore obtaining certain deformed Heisenberg algebra. This algebra has been studied in physical contexts, mainly in the case of the kappa-Minkowski space-time. Here we equip the entire phase space algebra with a coproduct, so that it becomes an instance of a com…
We propose a new realization of the elliptic quantum group equipped with the H-Hopf algebroid structure on the basis of the elliptic algebra U_{q,p}(\hat{sl}_2). The algebra U_{q,p}(\hat{sl}_2) has a constructive definition in terms of the Drinfeld generators of the quantum affine algebra U_q(\hat{sl}_2) and a Heisenberg algebra. This yields a systematic construction of both finite and infinite-dimensional dynamical representations and their parallel structures to U_q(\hat{sl}_2). In particular we give a classification theorem of the finite-dimensional irreducible pseudo-highest weight represe…
We consider a generalisation of the Majid's mirror product of a Hopf algebra H, when one of the components of the product is replaced by a twist. This leads to a new "twisted mirror product" construction for cocycle bicrossproduct Hopf algebra where c is a 2-cocycle of "twisting" type. As an application, we obtain a canonical cocycle bicrossproduct for any Hopf algebra H.
This is an introduction to double algebras which is the structure modelled by the properties of the convolution product in Hopf algebras, weak Hopf algebras and in Hopf algebroids. We show that Hopf algebroids with a Frobenius integral can be characterized as the double algebras in which the two multiplications satisfy distributivity. We discuss questions of duality, antipode, Maschke theorem and examples.
We show how to construct, starting from a quasi-Hopf (super)algebra, central elements or Casimir invariants. We show that these central elements are invariant under quasi-Hopf twistings. As a consequence, the elliptic quantum (super)groups, which arise from twisting the normal quantum (super)groups, have the same Casimir invariants as the corresponding quantum (super)groups.
Transformation of operator algebras under Hopf algebra twist is studied. It is shown that that adjoint module algebras are stable under the twist. Applications to vector fields on non-commutative space-time are considered.
We describe the twist quantization of string worldsheet theory, which unifies the description of quantization and the target space symmetry, based on the twisting of Hopf and module algebras. We formulate a method of decomposing a twist into successive twists to analyze the twisted Hopf and module algebra structure, and apply it to several examples, including finite twisted diffeomorphism and extra treatment for zero modes.
In this work we investigate several important aspects of the structure theory of the recently introduced quasi-Hopf superalgebras (QHSAs), which play a fundamental role in knot theory and integrable systems. In particular we introduce the opposite structure and prove in detail (for the graded case) Drinfeld's result that the coproduct $Δ' \equiv (S\otimes S)\cdot T\cdot Δ\cdot S^{-1}$ induced on a QHSA is obtained from the coproduct $Δ$ by twisting. The corresponding ``Drinfeld twist'' $F_D$ is explicitly constructed, as well as its inverse, and we investigate the complete QHSA associated with…
Introducing an H-Hopf algebroid structure into U_{q,p}(\widedhat{sl}_2), we investigate the vertex operators of the elliptic quantum group U_{q,p}(\widedhat{sl}_2) defined as intertwining operators of infinite dimensional U_{q,p}(\widedhat{sl}_2)-modules. We show that the vertex operators coincide with the previous results obtained indirectly by using the quasi-Hopf algebra B_{q,λ}(\hat{sl}_2). This shows a consistency of our H-Hopf algebroid structure even in the case with non-zero central element.
We show how the Hopf algebra of rooted trees encodes the combinatorics of Epstein-Glaser renormalization and coordinate space renormalization in general. In particular we prove that the Epstein-Glaser time-ordered products can be obtained from the Hopf algebra by suitable Feynman rules, mapping trees to operator-valued distributions. Twisting the antipode with a renormalization map formally solves the Epstein-Glaser recursion and provides local counterterms due to the Hochschild 1-closedness of the grafting operator $B_+$.
Given a Hopf algebra H and an algebra A that is an H-module algebra we consider the category of left H-modules and A-bimodules, where morphisms are just right A-linear maps (not necessarily H-equivariant). Given a twist F of H we then quantize (deform) H to H^F, A to A_\star and correspondingly the category of left H-modules and A-bimodules to the category of left H^F-modules and A_\star-bimodules. If we consider a quasitriangular Hopf algebra H, a quasi-commutative algebra A and quasi-commutative A-bimodules, we can further construct and study tensor products over A of modules and of morphism…
This paper together with the previous one (arXiv:hep-th/0604146) presents the detailed description of all quantum deformations of D=4 Lorentz algebra as Hopf algebra in terms of complex and real generators. We describe here in detail two quantum deformations of the D=4 Lorentz algebra o(3,1) obtained by twisting of the standard q-deformation U_{q}(o(3,1)). For the first twisted q-deformation an Abelian twist depending on Cartan generators of o(3,1) is used. The second example of twisting provides a quantum deformation of Cremmer-Gervais type for the Lorentz algebra. For completeness we describ…
We show that an $L_\infty$-algebra can be extended to a graded Hopf algebra with a codifferential. Then we twist this extended $L_\infty$-algebra with a Drinfel'd twist, simultaneously twisting its modules. Taking the $L_\infty$-algebra as its own (Hopf) module, we obtain the recently proposed braided $L_\infty$-algebra. The Hopf algebra morphisms are identified with the strict $L_\infty$-morphisms, while the braided $L_\infty$-morphisms define a more general $L_\infty$-action of twisted $L_\infty$-algebras.
The quotient $L/A[-1]$ of a pair $A\hookrightarrow L$ of Lie algebroids is a Lie algebra object in the derived category $D^b(\mathscr{A})$ of the category $\mathscr{A}$ of left $\mathcal{U}(A)$-modules, the Atiyah class $α_{L/A}$ being its Lie bracket. In this note, we describe the universal enveloping algebra of the Lie algebra object $L/A[-1]$ and we prove that it is a Hopf algebra object in $D^b(\mathscr{A})$.
We introduce a family of dynamical Hopf algebroids $U_{q,p}(g,X_l)$ depending on a complex parameter $q$, a formal parameter $p$, a set $g$ of structure functions satisfying the so-called Ding-Iohara condition, and a finite root system of type $X_l$. If $g$ is set to be certain theta functions, then our family recovers the elliptic algebras $U_{q,p}(\widehat{\mathfrak{g}})$ for untwisted affine Lie algebras $\widehat{\mathfrak{g}}$ studied by Konno (1998, 2009), Jimbo-Konno-Odake-Shiraishi (1999) and Farghly-Konno-Oshima (2014). Also, taking the limit $p \to 0$ in the case $X_l=A_l$, we recove…
