Drinfeld double of deformed quantum algebras

Abstract

We provide a deformation, $\mathfrak{f}_{\beta}$, of Lusztig algebra $\mathbf{f}$. Various quantum algebras in literatures, including half parts of two-parameter quantum algebras, quantum superalgebras, and multi-parameter quantum algebras/superalgebras, are all specializations of $\mathfrak{f}_{\beta}$. Moreover, $\mathfrak{f}_{\beta}$ is isomorphic to Lusztig algebra $\mathbf{f}$ up to a twist. As a consequence, half parts of those quantum algebras are isomorphic to Lusztig algebra $\mathbf{f}$ over a big enough ground field up to certain twists. We further construct the entire algebra $\mathbf U_{\beta,\xi}$ by Drinfeld double construction. As special cases, above quantum algebras all admit a Drinfeld double construction under certain assumptions.
