Abstract

Let k be an arbitrary field of characteristic zero, and U be the quantized enveloping algebra U q (sl(2)) over k. The aim of this present paper is to study the ideals of U at q not a root of unity. It turns out that every non-zero ideal of U can be generated by at most two highest weight vectors under the adjoint action, and by a sum of two highest weight vectors. This weight property make it possible to give a complete list of all prime (primitive, maximal) ideals of U according to their generators.
