Review text

The authors give explicit calculations (in matrix form) of all the irreducible representations of the quantized Weyl algebra \(k\langle X,Y\mid YX-\gamma XY-1\rangle\) over an algebraically closed field \(k\) for the case when \(\gamma\) is a root of unity, using only elementary linear algebra. This provides a simple proof for this case of a result of \textit{Yu. A. Drozd, B. L. Guzner}, and \textit{S. A. Ovsienko} [J. Algebra 184, No. 2, 491-504 (1996; Zbl 0864.16020)], and correspondingly for a result of \textit{D. A. Jordan} [J. Pure Appl. Algebra 98, No. 1, 45-55 (1995; Zbl 0829.16017)].
