Gröbner-Shirshov bases for quantum enveloping algebras (Q677449)

The authors give a method for finding Gröbner-Shirshov bases for the quantum algebras of \textit{V. G. Drinfel'd} [Sov. Math., Dokl. 32, 256-258 (1985); translation from Dokl. Akad. Nauk SSSR 283, No. 5, 1060-1064 (1985; Zbl 0588.17015)] and \textit{M. Jimbo} [Lett. Math. Phys. 10, No. 1, 63-69 (1985; Zbl 0587.17004)]. It is shown how the methods can be applied to Kac-Moody algebras. They explicitly find the bases for quantum enveloping algebras of type \(A_N\) (for \(q^8\neq 1\)).
