Braided Hopf algebras and gauge transformations. II: \(\ast\)-structures and examples



Abstract: We consider noncommutative principal bundles which are equivariant under a triangular Hopf algebra. We present explicit examples of infinite dimensional braided Lie and Hopf algebras of infinitesimal gauge transformations of bundles on noncommutative spheres. The braiding of these algebras is implemented by the triangular structure of the symmetry Hopf algebra. We present a systematic analysis of compatible ∗-structures, encompassing the quasitriangular case.


In this paper the authors pursue the study of the notions developed in their previous work [``Braided Hopf algebras and gauge transformations, Preprint.\url{ arXiv:2203.13811}]. Their focus is on \(K\)-equivariant Hopf-Galois extensions, where \((K,R)\) is a triangular Hopf algebra, and their braided Lie algebras of gauge symmetries. They present here a systematic analysis of \(*\)-structures on braided Hopf algebras associated with quasitriangular Hopf algebras and study their compatibility with actions on \(*\)-algebras. In the triangular case, they further consider braided Lie \(*\)-algebras and their representations on \(*\)-algebras. Examples of infinite dimensional braided Lie and Hopf algebras of infinitesimal gauge transformations of bundles on noncommutative spheres are presented; these are given by two Hopf-Galois extensions, the \textit{instanton bundle} and the \textit{orthogonal bundle}, of the algebra \(\mathcal O(S^4_{\theta})\) of the noncommutative 4-sphere of \textit{A. Connes} and \textit{G. Landi} [Commun. Math. Phys. 221, No. 1, 141--159 (2001; Zbl 0997.81045)] associated to an abelian twist.
