Quantum super-spherical pairs (Q6995884)

Let \(\mathfrak{g}\) be a basic matrix Lie superalgebra (that is, either a general linear Lie superalgebra or a orthosymplectic Lie superalgebra) with a suitable choice of a Borel subalgebra \(\mathfrak{b}\). In this paper, the authors construct proper subalgebras \(\mathfrak{k}\) of \(\mathfrak{g}\) such that \(\mathfrak{g} = \mathfrak{k} + \mathfrak{b}\) from the notion of \textit{pseudo-symmetric pairs}, and quantize them as coideal subalgebras of the quantum supergroup \(U_q(\mathfrak{g})\) for \(q\) a nonzero complex number that is not a root of unity.\N\NLet \(V\) be the standard vector representation of the quasi-triangular Hopf superalgebra \(U_q(\mathfrak{g})\) and \(S \in \mathrm{End}_{U_q(\mathfrak{g})} (V\otimes V)\) be the associated braiding. The authors provide particular solutions \(K \in \mathrm{End}(V)\) to the following \textit{reflection equation} in \(\mathrm{End}(V) \otimes \mathrm{End}(V)\): \N\[\NS \circ (\mathrm{Id} \otimes K) \circ S \circ (\mathrm{Id} \otimes K) = (\mathrm{Id} \otimes K) \circ S \circ (\mathrm{Id} \otimes K) \circ S. \N\]\NThe mixture parameters in the definition of the coideal subalgebra \(U_q(\mathfrak{k})\) are expressed in terms of the coefficients of a \(K\)-matrix.
