Let \(\dot{\mathfrak{g}}\) be a finite dimensional simple Lie algebra of type \(A_1\) over \(\mathbb C\). The main result of the paper under review is the construction of a middle quantum algebra \(\mathcal U\) between the quantum affinization algebra \(\mathcal U_{\hbar}(\hat{\mathfrak{g}})\) introduced by \textit{N. Jing} [Lett. Math. Phys. 44, No. 4, 261--271 (1998; Zbl 0911.17006)] and the quantum toroidal algebra \(\mathcal U_{\hbar}(\dot{\mathfrak{g}}_{tor})\) introduced by \textit{V. Ginzburg} et al. [Math. Res. Lett. 2, No. 2, 147--160 (1995; Zbl 0914.11040)]. It is shown that \(\mathcal U\) admits a triangular decomposition and it has a deformed Drinfeld coproduct, which allows to define a (topological) Hopf algebra structure on \(\mathcal U\). A vertex representation for \(\mathcal U\) is also obtained.
