Lyndon bases of split $\imath$quantum groups

Abstract

We introduce and study Lyndon bases of split $\imath$quantum groups $\mathbf{U}^\imath(\mathfrak{g})$. A relationship between the Lyndon bases and PBW-type bases was provided. As an application, we establish the existence of canonical bases for the type A split $\imath$quantum groups $\mathbf{U}^\imath(\mathfrak{sl}_n)$.
