Let G be a semisimple, connected, and simply connected affine algebraic group over an
r
a algebraicallyclosed field of characteristic zero; we consider a family of structures of Poisson
group on G, indexed by a multiparameter τ, which generalize the well-known Sklyanin-
Drinfeld one (cf. e. g. [DP], §11). Then every such Poisson group Gτ has a well defined
corresponding dual Poisson group Hτ, and gτ := Lie(Gτ) and hτ := Lie(Hτ) are Lie
bialgebras dual of each other.
In1985Drinfeld([Dr])andJimbo([Ji])providedaquantizationUQ(g)of U(g) = U(g0),
q
namely a Hopf algebra UQ(g) over k(q), presented by generators and relations with a
q
k[q,q−1]-formUQ(g)whichfor q → 1 specializestoU(g)asaPoissonHopfcoalgebra. This
q
has been extended to general parameter τ introducing multiparameter quantum groups
UQ (g) (cf. [Rb], and [CV-1], [CV-2]). Dually, by means of a Peter-Weyl type axiomatic
q,ϕ
trick one constructs a Hopf algebra FP[G] of matrix coefficients of UQ(g) with a k[q,q−1]-
q q
form FP[G] which specializes to F[G], as a Poisson Hopf algebra, for q → 1; in particular
q
FP[G] is nothing but the Hopf subalgebra of ”functions” in FP[G] which take values in

k[q,q−1] when ”evaluated” on UQ(g) (in a word, the k[q,q−1]-integer valued functions on
q
UQ(g)). This again extends to general τ (cf. [CV-2]).
q
So far the quantization procebdure only dealt with the Poisson group Gτ; the dual group
Hb is involved defining a different k[q,q−1]-form UP(g) (of a quantum group UP(g)) which
q q
specializes to F[H] (as a Poisson Hopf algebra) for q → 1 (cf. [DP]), with generalization
to the general case possible again. Here a new pheenomenon of ”crossing dualities” (duality
among enveloping and function algebra and duality among Poisson groups) occurs which
was described (in a formal setting) by Drinfel’d (cf. [Dr], §7). This leads to consider
the following: let FQ[G] be the quantum function algebra dual of UP(g), and look at the
q q
”dual” ofUP(g)withinFQ[G], callit FQ[G], which shouldbe theHopf algebra ofk[q,q−1]-
q q q
integer valued functions on UP(g); then this should specialize to U(h) (as a Poisson Hopf
q
coalgebra)efor q → 1; the same conjeceture can be formulated in the general case too.
The starting aim of the peresent work was to achieve this goal, i. e. to construct FQ[G]
q
and itsk[q,q−1]-form FQ[G], and to prove thatFQ[G] is a deformation of the Poisson Hopf
q q
coalgebra U(h). This goal is succesfully attained by performing a suitable dualization of
Drinfeld’s quantum doeuble; but by the way, thiseleads to discover a new ”quantum group”
(both one-parameter and multiparameter), which we call UM,∞(h), which is to U(h) as
q
UM(g) is to U(g); in particular it has an integer form UQ(h) which is a quantization
q q
of U(h), and an integer form UP,∞(h) which is a quantization of F∞[G] (the function
q
algebra of the formal Poisson group associated to G); thisbis also produced in the shape
of a quantum formal group FP,∞e[G]. Moreover, we exhibit a quantum analog of the Hopf
q
pairings F[H]⊗U(h) → k, F[G]⊗U(g) → k, F∞[G]⊗U(g) → k, and also a quantum
analog of the Lie bialgebra pbairing h⊗g → k, which are strictly related with each other
and with the already known quantum pairing FP[G]⊗UQ(g) → k(q): all this is stressed
q q
by introducing the definition of quantum Poisson pairing. Once again all this extend to
the multiparameter case. Thus in particular we provide a quantization for a wide class
of Poisson groups (the Hτ’s); now, in the summer of 1995 (when the present work was
already accomplished) a quantization of any Poisson group was presented in [EK-1] and
[EK-2], but greatest generality implies lack of concreteness: in contrast, our construction is
extremely concrete, by hands; moreover, it allows specialization at roots of 1, construction
of quantum Frobenius morphisms, and so on (like for UQ(g) and UP(g)), which is not
q q
possible in the approach of [EK-1], [EK-2].
Finally, a brief sketch of the main ideas of the paper. Our aim being to study the
”dual” of a quantum group UM (g) (M being a lattice of weights), we proceed as fol-
q,ϕ
lows. First, we select as operation of ”dualization” (of a Hopf algebra H ) the most
na¨ıve one, namely taking the full linear dual (i. e. H∗, rather than the usual Hopf
dual H◦), the latter being a formal Hopf algebra (rather than a common Hopf algebra).
Second, we remark that UM (g) is a quotient, as a Hopf algebra, of a quantum double
q,ϕ
DM (g) := D UQ (b ),UM (b ),πϕ (cf. §3), hence its linear dual UM (g)∗ embeds into
q,ϕ q,ϕ − q,ϕ + + q,ϕ
the formal Hopf algebra DM (g)∗. Third, since DM (g) ∼= UM (b )⊗UQ (b ) (as coal-
(cid:0) q,ϕ (cid:1) q,ϕ q,ϕ + q,ϕ −
gebras) we have DM (g)∗ ∼= UM (b )∗⊗UQ (b )∗ (as algebras), where ⊗ denotes topo-
q,ϕ q,ϕ + q,ϕ −
logical tensor product. Fourth, DRT pairings among quantum Borel algebras yield natural
embeddings UM (b ) ֒→ UM′(b )∗ (Mb′ being the dual latticeofM ). Fiftbh, from previous
q,ϕ ± q,ϕ ∓
remarks we locate a special formal Hopf subalgebra of UM′(b )⊗UP (b ) ⊆ DM (g)∗.

QUANTIZATION OF POISSON GROUPS 3
Seventh, we take out of this an axiomatic construction of a formal Hopf algebra UM′(h),
q,ϕ
by definition isomorphic to the one of step six and therefore naturally paired with UM (g):
q,ϕ
this is the object we were looking for, sort of completion of FM′[G], and from its very
q,ϕ
construction the whole series of results we stated above will be proved with no serious
trouble.
Sections 1 to 4 introduce the already known material; the original part of the paper is
sections 5 to 8. The Appendix describes in full detail the example G = SL(2).

§ 1 The classical objects
1.1 Cartan data. Let A := (a ) be a n×n symmetrizable Cartan matrix;
ij i,j=1,...,n
thus we have a ∈ Z with a = 2 and a ≤ 0 if i 6= j, and there exists a vector
ij ii ij
(d ,... ,d ) with relatively prime positive integral entries d such that (d a )
1 n i i ij i,j=1,...,n
is a symmetric positive definite matrix. Define the weight lattice P to be the lattice
with basis {ω ,...,ω } (the fundamental weights); let P = n Nω be the subset of
1 n + i=1 i
n
dominant integral weights, let α = a ω (j = 1,...,n) be the simple roots, and
Q = n Zα (⊂ P ) the root lajttice, iQ=1 =ij i n Nα thePpositive root lattice. Let W
j=1 j P + j=1 j
be the Weyl group associated to A, with generators s ,... ,s , and let Π := {α ,...,α }:
1 n 1 n
P P
then R := WΠ is the set of roots, R+ = R∩Q the set of positive roots; finally, we set
+
N := #(R+) (= |W|).
Define bilinear pairings h | i:Q×P → Z and ( | ):Q×P → Z by hα |ω i = δ and
i j ij
(α |ω ) = δ d . Then (α |α ) = d a , giving a symmetric Z-valued W-invariant bilinear
i j ij i i j i ij
formonQsuchthat(α|α) ∈ 2Z. WecanalsoextendtheZ-bilinearpairing (|):Q×P → Z
to a (non-degenerate) pairing ( | ):(Q⊗ Q)×(Q⊗ P) → Z of Q-vector spaces by scalar
Z Z
extension: restriction gives a pairing ( | ):P × P → Q (looking at P as a sublattice of
Q⊗ Q), which takesvalues in Z[d−1], where d := det (a )n . Given a pairof lattices
Z ij i,j=1
(M,M′), with Q ≤ M,M′ ≤ P , we say that they are(cid:16)dual of ea(cid:17)ch other if
M′ = {y ∈ P | (M,y) ⊆ Z} , M = {x ∈ P | (x,M′) ⊆ Z}
the two conditions being equivalent; then for any lattice M with Q ≤ M ≤ P there exists
a unique dual lattice M′ such that Q ≤ M′ ≤ P .
1.2 The Poisson groups G and H. Let G be a connected simply-connected semisim-
pleaffinealgebraicgroupoveranalgebraicallyclosedfieldk ofcharachteristic0. Fixamax-
imal torus T ≤ G and opposite Borel subgroups B , with unipotent subgroups U , such
± ±
that B ∩B = T , and let g := Lie(G), t := Lie(T), b := Lie(B ), n := Lie(U );
+ − ± ± ± ±
fix also τ := (τ ,... ,τ ) ∈ Qn such that (τ ,α ) = −(τ ,α ) for all i,j = 1,...,n: when
1 n i j j i
τ = (0,... ,0) we shall simply skip it throughout. Set K = G × G, define Gτ := G
embedded in K as the diagonal subgroup, and define a second subgroup
Hτ := {(u t ,t u ) | u ∈ U ,t ∈ T,t t ∈ exp(tτ)} (≤ B ×B ≤ K)
− − + + ± ± ± − + − +
4 F. GAVARINI
where tτ := n k ·h ⊕h ≤ t⊕t ≤ g⊕g = k := Lie(K); thus
i=1 −αi+2τi αi+2τi
P hτ := Lie(Hτ) = (n−,0)⊕tτ ⊕(0,n+).
Thus we have a triple (K,Gτ,Hτ); this is an algebraic Manin triple (i. e. its ”tangent
triple” (k,gτ,hτ) is a Manin triple), when a non-degenerate symmetric invariant bilinear
form on k is defined as follows: first rescale the Killing form ( , ):g⊗g → k so that short
roots of g have square length 2; then define the form on k = g⊕g by
1 1
hx ⊕y ,x ⊕y i := (y ,y )− (x ,x ).
1 1 2 2 1 2 1 2
2 2
In general, if (k′,g′,h′) is any Manin triple, the bilinear form on k′ gives by restriction
a non-degenerate pairing h , i:h′ ⊗g′ → k which is a pairing of Lie bialgebras, that is
hx,[y1,y2]i = hδh(x),y1 ∧y2i, h[x1,x2],yi = hx1 ∧x2,δg(y)i
for all x,x1,x2 ∈ h′, y,y1,y2 ∈ g′, where δh′, resp. δg′, is the Lie cobracket of h′, resp. g′;
we shall call such pairing also Poisson pairing, and denote it by π (h,g) := hh,gi for all
P
h ∈ h′, g ∈ g′. In the present case the Poisson pairing is described by formulas
hfτ,f i = 0 hfτ,h i = 0 hfτ,e i = −1δ d−1
i j i j i j 2 ij i
hhτ,f i = 0 hhτ,h i = a d−1 = a d−1 hhτ,e i = 0 (1.1−a)
i j i j ij j ji i i j
heτ,f i = 1δ d−1 heτ,h i = 0 heτ,e i = 0
i j 2 ij i i j i j
where the fτ, hτ, eτ (s = 1,...,n), resp. f , h , e (s = 1,...,n), are Chevalley-type
s s s s s s
generators of hτ, resp. gτ, embedded inside k = g ⊕ g, namely fτ = f ⊕ 0, hτ =
s s s
h ⊕ h , eτ = 0 ⊕ e , and f = f ⊕ f , h = h ⊕ h , e = e ⊕ e (see
−αs+2τs αs+2τs s s s s s s s s s s s
below); moreover we also record that

1.3 The Poisson Hopf coalgebra U(gτ). It is known that the universal enveloping
algebra U(gτ) = U(g) canbepresented astheassociativek-algebra with1generated by el-
ements,f , h , e (i = 1,...,n)(theChevalley generators)satisfyingthewell-knownSerre’s

relations (cf. for instance [Hu], ch. V). As an enveloping algebra of a Lie algebra, U(gτ) has
a canonical structure of Hopf algebra, given by ∆(x) = x⊗1+1⊗x, S(x) = −x, ε(x) = 0
for all x ∈ g; finally, the Poisson structure of Gτ reflects into a Lie coalgebra structure
δ = δgτ:gτ −→ gτ ⊗gτ of gτ, extending to a co-Poisson structure δ:U(gτ) −→ U(gτ)⊗
U(gτ) (compatible with the Hopf structure) given by (cf. [DL], §8, and [DKP], §7.7)
(α +2τ |α +2τ ) (α +2τ |α +2τ )

different (by a coefficient 1) from the one fixed in [DP].

n ∼= n ⊕tτ ⊕n as vector spaces: then the Lie structure of hτ is uniquely determined by

§ 2 Quantum Borel algebras and DRT pairings
2.1 Notations. We shall introduce our quantum groups using the construction of
[DL] and [CV-1], [CV-2]. For all s,n ∈ N, let (n) := qn−1 (∈ k[q]), (n) ! := n (r) ,
q q−1 q r=1 q
(n) := (n)q! (∈ k[q]), and [n] := qn−q−n (∈ k[q,q−1]), [n] ! := n [rQ] , [n] :=

antisymmetric — with respect to ( | ) — and satisfies the conditions

where, letting τ := 1ϕ(α ) = n y α , we set Y := (y ) , M (Z) is the set

(id +ϕ) , r := (id −ϕ) .

2.2 Quantum Borel algebras. Let M be any lattice such that Q ≤ M ≤ P ; then
(cf. [DL] and [CV-1]) UM (b ) (resp. UM (b )) is the associative k(q)-algebra with 1
q,ϕ − q,ϕ +
generated by {L | µ ∈ M } ∪ {F | i = 1,...,n} (resp. {L | µ ∈ M } ∪ {E | i =

When ϕ = 0 we could skip the superscript ϕ, our quantum algebras then conciding
with the one-parameter ones, i. e. those of, say, [Lu-1], [DP], etc.
2.3 DRT pairings. From now on, if H is any Hopf algebra, then Hop will denote
the same coalgebra as H with the opposite multiplication, while H will denote the same
op
algebra as H with the opposite comultiplication.
From [DL], §2 (for the 1-parameter case), and [CV-1], §3 (for the multiparameter case)
we recall the existence of perfect (i. e. non-degenerate) pairings of Hopf algebras among
quantum Borel algebras
πϕ:UP (b ) ⊗UQ (b ) → k(q), πϕ:UQ (b ) ⊗UP (b ) → k(q)
− q,ϕ − op q,ϕ + + q,ϕ − op q,ϕ +

− q,ϕ + op q,ϕ − + q,ϕ + op q,ϕ −
2Actually, we use here a different normalization than in [CV-1]: the results therein coincide with the
ones we list below up to change q ↔q−1, Lλ ↔L−λ (or Kλ ↔K−λ).

Remark : Hopf pairings like those above were introduced by Drinfeld, Rosso, Tanisaki,
and others, whence we shall call them DRT pairings; here again some differences occur
with respect to [CV-1], [CV-2] (or even [DL] for the simplest case), because of different
definition of the Hopf structure: cf. also [Tn] and [DD].
In the sequel if π is any DRT pairing we will also set hx,yi for π(x,y).

2.4 PBW bases. It is known that both UQ (b ) and UP (b ) have bases of Poincar´e-
q,ϕ − q,ϕ +
Birkhoff-Witt type (in short ”PBW bases”): we fix (once and for all) any reduced ex-
pression of w (the longest element in the Weyl group W), namely w = s s ···s
0 0 i1 i2 iN
(with N := #(R+) = number of positive roots); thus we have a total convex order-
ing (cf. [Pa] and [DP], §8.2) α1,α2 := s (α ),...,αN := s s ···s (α ), hence
i1 i2 i1 i2 iN−1 iN
— following Lusztig and others: cf. e. g. [Lu-2] — we can construct root vectors E ,
