Abstract: This paper concerns the positive part Uq+ of the quantum group Uq(widehatmathfraksl2). The algebra Uq+ has a presentation involving two generators that satisfy the cubic q-Serre relations. We recently introduced an algebra mathcalUq+ called the alternating central extension of Uq+. We presented mathcalUq+ by generators and relations. The presentation is attractive, but the multitude of generators and relations makes the presentation unwieldy. In this paper we obtain a presentation of mathcalUq+ that involves a small subset of the original set of generators and a very manageable set of relations. We call this presentation the compact presentation of mathcalUq+.
