1. A Serre Presentation for the ıQuantum Covering Groups
   arXiv version
   Abstract: (click to expand)

   Let (U,U^ı) be a quasi-split quantum symmetric pair of Kac-Moody type. The ıquantum group U^ı admits a Serre presentation featuring the ı-Serre relations in terms of ı-divided powers. Generalizing this result, we give a Serre presentation U_π^ı of quantum symmetric pairs (U_π,U_π^ı) for quantum covering algebras U_π, which have an additional parameter π that specializes to the Lusztig quantum group when π=1 and quantum supergroups of anisotropic type when π=−1. We give a Serre presentation for U_π^ı, introducing the ı^π-Serre relations and ı^π-divided powers.

   Abstract: (click to expand)

   A quantum covering group is an algebra with parameters q and π subject to π²=1, and it admits an integral form; it specializes to the usual quantum group at π=1 and to a quantum supergroup of anisotropic type at π=−1. In this paper we establish the Frobenius–Lusztig homomorphism and Lusztig–Steinberg tensor product theorem in the setting of quantum covering groups at roots of 1. The specialization of these constructions at π=1 recovers Lusztig’s constructions for quantum groups at roots of 1.
