With applications in quantum field theory, general relativity and elementary particle physics, this three-volume work studies the invariance of differential operators under Lie algebras, quantum groups and superalgebras. This second volume covers quantum groups in their two main manifestations: quantum algebras and matrix quantum groups. The exposition covers both the general aspects of these and a great variety of concrete explicitly presented examples. The invariant q-difference operators are introduced mainly using representations of quantum algebras on their dual matrix quantum groups as carrier spaces. This is the first book that covers the title matter applied to quantum groups.

This book provides a self-contained introduction to quantum groups as algebraic objects. Based on the author's lecture notes from a Part III pure mathematics course at Cambridge University, it is suitable for use as a textbook for graduate courses in quantum groups or as a supplement to modern courses in advanced algebra. The book assumes a background knowledge of basic algebra and linear algebra. Some familiarity with semisimple Lie algebras would also be helpful. The book is aimed as a primer for mathematicians and takes a modern approach leading into knot theory, braided categories and noncommutative differential geometry. It should also be useful for mathematical physicists.

This book is aimed at presenting different methods and perspectives in the theory of Quantum Groups, bridging between the algebraic, representation theoretic, analytic, and differential-geometric approaches. It also covers recent developments in Noncommutative Geometry, which have close relations to quantization and quantum group symmetries. The volume collects surveys by experts which originate from an activity at the Max-Planck-Institute for Mathematics in Bonn. Contributions byTomasz Brzezinski, Branimir Cacic, Rita Fioresi, Rita Fioresi and Fabio Gavarini, Debashish Goswami, Christian Kassel, Avijit Mukherjee, Alfons Van Daele, Robert Wisbauer, Alessandro Zampini The volume is aimed as introducing techniques and results on Quantum Groups and Noncommutative Geometry, in a form that is accessible to other researchers in related areas as well as to advanced graduate students. The topics covered are of interest to both mathematicians and theoretical physicists. Prof. Dr. Matilde Marcolli, Department of Mathematics, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, California, USA.

With applications in quantum field theory, general relativity and elementary particle physics, this four-volume work studies the invariance of differential operators under Lie algebras, quantum groups and superalgebras. This third volume covers supersymmetry, including detailed coverage of conformal supersymmetry in four and some higher dimensions, furthermore quantum superalgebras are also considered. Contents Lie superalgebras Conformal supersymmetry in 4D Examples of conformal supersymmetry for D › 4 Quantum superalgebras
