    Twisted Hopf algebras (English)
    0 references
    The authors introduce the concept of a twisted Hopf algebra \(A\), which is different from the usual concept of a Hopf algebra by the fact that the comultiplication is an algebra map from \(A\) to a certain algebra deformation of \(A\otimes A\) with respect to a pair of bilinear forms. For example the positive part in the triangular decomposition of the quantized enveloping algebra associated to a simple Lie algebra has a structure of a twisted Hopf algebra. Some properties and constructions of twisted Hopf algebras are presented.NEWLINENEWLINEFor the entire collection see [Zbl 0974.00038].
