Quantization of Lie-Poisson structures by peripheric chains

The quantization properties of composite peripheric twists are studied. Peripheric chains of extended twists are constructed for U(sl(N)) in order to obtain composite twists with sufficiently large carrier subalgebras. It is proved that the peripheric chains can be enlarged with additional Reshetikhin and Jordanian factors. This provides the possibility to construct new solutions to Drinfeld equations and, thus, to quantize new sets of Lie-Poisson structures. When the Jordanian additional factors are used the carrier algebras of the enlarged peripheric chains are transformed into algebras of motion of the form G_{JB}^{P}={G}_{H}\vdash {G}_{P}. The factor algebra G_{H} is a direct sum of Borel and contracted Borel subalgebras of lower dimensions. The corresponding omega--form is a coboundary. The enlarged peripheric chains F_{JB}^{P} represent the twists that contain operators external with respect to the Lie-Poisson structure. The properties of new twists are illustrated by quantizing r-matrices for the algebras U(sl(3)), U(sl(4)) and U(sl(7)).Comment: 24 pages, LaTe

Quantum Jordanian twist

The quantum deformation of the Jordanian twist F_qJ for the standard quantum Borel algebra U_q(B) is constructed. It gives the family U_qJ(B) of quantum algebras depending on parameters x and h. In a generic point these algebras represent the hybrid (standard-nonstandard) quantization. The quantum Jordanian twist can be applied to the standard quantization of any Kac-Moody algebra. The corresponding classical r-matrix is a linear combination of the Drinfeld- Jimbo and the Jordanian ones. The obtained two-parametric families of Hopf algebras are smooth and for the limit values of the parameters the standard and nonstandard quantizations are recovered. The twisting element F_qJ also has the correlated limits, in particular when q tends to unity it acquires the canonical form of the Jordanian twist. To illustrate the properties of the quantum Jordanian twist we construct the hybrid quantizations for U(sl(2)) and for the corresponding affine algebra U(hat(sl(2))). The universal quantum R-matrix and its defining representation are presented.Comment: 12 pages, Late

Peripheric Extended Twists

The properties of the set L of extended jordanian twists are studied. It is shown that the boundaries of L contain twists whose characteristics differ considerably from those of internal points. The extension multipliers of these "peripheric" twists are factorizable. This leads to simplifications in the twisted algebra relations and helps to find the explicit form for coproducts. The peripheric twisted algebra U(sl(4)) is obtained to illustrate the construction. It is shown that the corresponding deformation U_{P}(sl(4)) cannot be connected with the Drinfeld--Jimbo one by a smooth limit procedure. All the carrier algebras for the extended and the peripheric extended twists are proved to be Frobenius.Comment: 16 pages, LaTeX 209. Some misprints have been corrected and new Comments adde

Extended and Reshetikhin Twists for sl(3)

The properties of the set {L} of extended jordanian twists for algebra sl(3) are studied. Starting from the simplest algebraic construction --- the peripheric Hopf algebra U_ P'(0,1)(sl(3)) --- we construct explicitly the complete family of extended twisted algebras {U_ E(\theta)(sl(3))} corresponding to the set of 4-dimensional Frobenius subalgebras {L(\theta)} in sl(3). It is proved that the extended twisted algebras with different values of the parameter \theta are connected by a special kind of Reshetikhin twist. We study the relations between the family {U_E(\theta)(sl(3))} and the one-dimensional set {U_DJR(\lambda)(sl(3))} produced by the standard Reshetikhin twist from the Drinfeld--Jimbo quantization U_DJ(sl(3)). These sets of deformations are in one-to-one correspondence: each element of {U_E(\theta)(sl(3))} can be obtained by a limiting procedure from the unique point in the set {U_DJR(\lambda)(sl(3))}.Comment: 14 pages, LaTeX 20
