Abstract: We define a natural quantum analogue for the $calZ$ algebra, and which we refer to as the ${calZ}_q$ algebra, by modding out the Heisenberg algebra from the quantum affine algebra $U_q(hatsl(2))$ with level $k$. We discuss the representation theory of this ${calZ}_q$ algebra. In particular, we exhibit its reduction to a group algebra, and to a tensor product of a group algebra with a quantum Clifford algebra when $k=1$, and $k=2$, and thus, we recover the explicit constructions of $uq$-standard modules as achieved by Frenkel-Jing and Bernard, respectively. Moreover, for arbitrary nonzero level $k$, we show that the explicit basis for the simplest $calZ$-generalized Verma module as constructed by Lepowsky and primc is also a basis for its corresponding ${calZ}_q$-module, i.e., it is invariant under the q-deformation for generic q. We expect this ${calZ}_q$ algebra (associated with $uq$ at level $k$), to play the role of a dynamical symmetry in the off-critical $Z_k$ statistical models.
