$$R$$ R -Matrix Realization of Two-Parameter Quantum Group $$U_{r,s}(\mathfrak {gl}_n)$$ U r , s ( gl n )

Abstract

We provide a Faddeev-Reshetikhin-Takhtajan's RTT approach to the quantum group Fun(GL_{r,s}(n)) and the quantum enveloping algebra U_{r,s}(gl_n) corresponding to the two-parameter R-matrix. We prove that the quantum determinant det_{r,s}T is a quasi-central element in Fun(GL_{r,s}(n)) generalizing earlier results of Dipper-Donkin and Du-Parshall-Wang. The explicit formulation provides an interpretation of the deforming parameters, and the quantized algebra U_{r,s}(R) is identified to U_{r,s}(gl_n) as the dual algebra. We then construct n-1 quasi-central elements in U_{r,s}(R) which are analogues of higher Casimir elements in U_q(gl_n).
