Quantum groups of Lie colour algebras fulfilling the Cartan-Weyl paradigm
Abstract
Let Gamma be an additive abelian group with a commutative factor omega. We describe the simple and untwisted affine Lie colour algebras which admit a Cartan - Weyl description. For both classes, we construct the quantised universal enveloping colour algebras, and establish their quasi-triangular Hopf colour algebraic structure. These colour quantum groups generalise the Drinfeld - Jimbo quantum groups, which are recovered when Gamma is trivial. They provide an algebraic foundation for investigations in knot theory and soluble models in statistical mechanics.
