Quantizations of braided derivations. I: Monoidal categories (Q875218)

This is a long paper on quantizations of braided derivations in monoidal categories. The paper consists of three parts: monoidal categories, graded modules, and modules with action by a group. In the first part, the author develops a general theory of quantizations for braided derivations of \(\sigma\)-symmetric algebras and modules, and proves that there is a Lie structure on the braided derivations. Moreover, the author shows that quantizations of braided derivations give rise to a braided Lie structure. This Lie structure is shown to exist for the braided differential operators. In the second part (Zbl 1141.18009), the author investigates graded derivations in \(\sigma\)-symmetric graded algebras and modules. This part can be considered as a graded version of the results obtained in the first part. As indicated by the subtitle, in the third part (Zbl 1141.18010), the author proceeds with an investigation of questions similar to the first part, but the difference is that the algebras and modules considered here have a group action, namely he considers \(\sigma\)-symmetric \(G\)-algebras and \(G\)-modules with \(G\) a finite abelian group, and finds their quantizations.
