We establish a Drinfeld type new presentation for the $\imath$quantum groups arising from quantum symmetric pairs of split affine ADE type, which includes the $q$-Onsager algebra as the rank 1 case. This presentation takes a form which can be viewed as a deformation of half an affine quantum group in the Drinfeld presentation.
Recently, Lu and Wang formulated a Drinfeld type presentation for $\imath$quantum group $\widetilde{\mathbf U}^\imath$ arising from quantum symmetric pairs of split affine ADE type. In this paper, we generalize their results by establishing a current presentation for $\widetilde{\mathbf U}^\imath$ of arbitrary split affine type.
Let $(\bf U, \bf U^\imath)$ be a quantum symmetric pair of Kac-Moody type. The $\imath$quantum groups $\bf U^\imath$ and the universal $\imath$quantum groups $\widetilde{\bf U}^\imath$ can be viewed as a generalization of quantum groups and Drinfeld doubles $\widetilde{\bf U}$. In this paper we formulate and establish Serre-Lusztig relations for $\imath$quantum groups in terms of $\imath$divided powers, which are an $\imath$-analog of Lusztig's higher order Serre relations for quantum groups. This has applications to braid group symmetries on $\imath$quantum groups.

We initiate a general approach to the relative braid group symmetries on (universal) $\imath$quantum groups, arising from quantum symmetric pairs of arbitrary finite types, and their modules. Our approach is built on new intertwining properties of quasi $K$-matrices which we develop and braid group symmetries on (Drinfeld double) quantum groups. Explicit formulas for these new symmetries on $\imath$quantum groups are obtained. We establish a number of fundamental properties for these symmetries on $\imath$quantum groups, strikingly parallel to their well-known quantum group counterparts. We ap…
The $\imath$quiver algebras were introduced recently by the authors to provide a Hall algebra realization of universal $\imath$quantum groups, which is a generalization of Bridgeland's Hall algebra construction for (Drinfeld doubles of) quantum groups; here an $\imath$quantum group and a corresponding Drinfeld-Jimbo quantum group form a quantum symmetric pair. In this paper, the Dynkin $\imath$quiver algebras are shown to arise as new examples of singular Nakajima-Keller-Scherotzke categories. Then we provide a geometric construction of the universal $\imath$quantum groups and their ``dual can…

Recently the authors initiated an $\imath$Hall algebra approach to (universal) $\imath$quantum groups arising from quantum symmetric pairs. In this paper we construct and study BGP type reflection functors which lead to isomorphisms of the $\imath$Hall algebras associated to acyclic $\imath$quivers. For Dynkin quivers, these symmetries on $\imath$Hall algebras induce automorphisms of universal $\imath$quantum groups, which are shown to satisfy the braid group relations associated to the restricted Weyl group of a symmetric pair; conjecturally these continue to hold for acyclic quivers/Kac-Mood…
