Quantized symplectic oscillator algebras of rank one (Q875922): Difference between revisions

A PBW deformation of the smash product of the quantum plane with the quantized enveloping algebra \(U_q({\mathfrak{sl}}_2)\) is called a quantized symplectic oscillator algebra of rank one. The representation theory of the not \(q\)-deformed case was studied by \textit{A. Khare} in [J. Pure Appl. Algebra 195, No. 2, 131-166 (2005); Erratum 199, No. 1-3, 319--320 (2005; Zbl 1083.17003)]. In the paper under the review, it is shown that the main results for the not \(q\)-deformed case can be naturally generalized to the \(q\)-deformed one. The main results in the paper are the following: 1. Necessary and sufficient conditions for a simple highest weight module to be finite dimensional are given. 2. A description of the Verma modules of such an algebra using the Verma modules of its subalgebra \(U_q({\mathfrak{sl}}_2)\) is given. 3. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the finite dimensional representations to be completely reducible are obtained. 4. It is proved that the center of such an algebra is trivial, when the deformation is non-trivial. Here `trivial' means the deformation is just the smash product.
