Abstract:
In accordance with the quantum duality principle, the twisted algebra UF(g) is equivalent to the quantum group Fundef(G#) and has two preferred bases: one inherited from the universal enveloping
algebra U(g) and the other generated by coordinate functions of the dual
Lie group G#. We show how the transformation g⟶g# can be explicitly obtained for any simple Lie algebra and a factorable chain F of extended Jordanian twists. In the algebra g#, we introduce a natural vector grading Γ(g#), compatible with the adjoint representation of the algebra. Passing to the dual-group coordinates allows essentially
simplifying the costructure of the deformed Hopf algebra UF(g),
considered as a quantum group Fundef(G#). The transformation g⟶g# can be used to construct new solutions of the twist equations. We construct a parameterized family of extended Jordanian
deformations UEJ(sl(3)) and study it in terms of SL(3)#; we find new realizations of the parabolic twist.
