R matrix and bicovariant calculus for the inhomogeneous quantum groups IGLq(n)

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

We find the R matrix for the inhomogeneous quantum groups whose homogeneous part is GLq(n), or its restrictions to SLq(n), Uq(n) and SUq(n). The quantum Yang-Baxter equation for R holds because of the Hecke relation for the braiding matrix of homogeneous subgroup. A bicovariant differential calculus on IGLq(n) is constructed, and its application to the D = 4 Poincaré group ISLq(2, C) is discussed.
