Abstract: We show that the action of universal $R$-matrix of affine $U_{q}s{l}_2$ quantum algebra, when $q$ is a root of unity, can be renormalized by some scalar factor to give a well defined nonsingular expression, satisfying Yang-Baxter equation. It reduced to intertwining operators of all representations, corresponding to Chiral Potts, if the parameters of these representations lie on well known algebraic curve. We also show that affine $U_{q}s{l}_2$ for $q$ is a root of unity form the autoquasitriangular Hopf algebra in the sence of Reshetikhin.

Review text

The universal \(R\)-matrices on Verma modules of \(U_q sl_2\) and \(U_q \widehat{sl}_2\) are considered in the case that \(q\) denotes a root of unity. There is a renormalization procedure to exclude the singularities of the \(R\)-matrix, which usually take place in the root of unity case. A connection with the autoquasitriangular Hopf algebras defined by \textit{N. Reshetikhin} [cf. Commun. Math. Phys. 170, 79-99 (1995; Zbl 0838.17009)] is pointed out.
