The quantum orthogonal mystery
Abstract
Description
This is (hopefully) a Latexable version of a talk given at the XXX Winter School in Theoretical Physics at Karpacz in February 1994. It discusses the use of non-commutative differential calculus to construct a Lie algebra of a quantum group. Usually the result has a different dimension from the classical Lie algebra. This is illustrated by menas of the orthogonal quantum group, and various other possible ways of constructing an orthogonal Lie algebra are described.
